Dear Patriot,
The 12-Day War is over.
Well, okay, maybe it was The 12-and-a-Half Day War. The children took a while to settle down and dad had to scream, in all caps, from the bottom of the stairs, “DON’T MAKE ME COME UP THERE!”
How special are we to have the great fortune of living in the world with Donald J. Trump as its leader? Our children and grandchildren may just be able to grow up without the threat of radical jihadists threatening to nuke them. Or fight in an endless war.
Everyone in politics for the past 50 years has yammered and stammered about the Middle East, peace, nuclear threats, jihadists, and terror attacks. NOTHING improved.
In fact, the situation grew worse by the year. Billions of our money has been expended, and worse, thousands of our children have been sacrificed.
President Trump is a man of action. All problems are solvable with the RIGHT action.
Problems are not solved by talking about them endlessly. Trump took action. That action lead to peace, at least for a moment. Frankly, we are still just a little stunned.
Eventually, we will ALL learn to trust President Trump and not question what he so clearly says are his plans. We need to pay better attention.
As the President so often suggests at the end of his missives on Truth Social: Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Today, we deep dive into…

a major change in health insurance.

Trump’s ‘spectacular’ Iran strike could carve his place in history as most courageous leader since Ronald Reagan
QUOTE: What an impressive sight it was Sunday, when the futuristic B-2 stealth bombers sliced through the powder-blue Missouri sky on their triumphant return to home base in the American heartland after dropping their Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs on Iran’s underground nuclear sites.
The strikes were “a spectacular military success,” President Trump told the world Saturday night, after emerging from the Situation Room. “Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated. Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace,” he said.
While Joint Chiefs Chairman Lt. Gen. Dan “Razing” Caine said Sunday it was “way too early” to know the full extent of damage at Iran’s Fordow uranium enrichment complex, satellite images show several large holes and a layer of gray-blue ash where all 14 massive “bunker buster” bombs, each weighing 30,000 pounds, hit their target Saturday night in Operation Midnight Hammer.
The strikes were also a spectacular political calculation by the president who ran on no new wars, and managed to keep a poker face all week as he was given advice by all and sundry. He made the right decision, and it appears to have been executed flawlessly. A limited strike, in and out. Iran’s nuclear capability has been eliminated or at least severely degraded. No regime change.
If the nuclear threat from Iran is indeed neutralized, leading to the extension of the Abraham Accords and peace in the Middle East, Trump will have achieved what countless predecessors failed to do.
If he pulls it off, without embroiling us in a larger war, he will have carved his role in history as the most courageous and consequential leader since Ronald Reagan. The man who rose from the stage in Butler, Pa., blood pouring down his face, who raised his fist in the air and said, “Fight! Fight! Fight!,” is exactly whom you want as commander-in-chief at a time like this, especially as it’s not his first rodeo.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, just after emerging last week from the Situation Room, where he watched the president deal with the complexities of the Iran-Israel war, likened Trump to Winston Churchill.
“He has a strategy and it’s not a conventional strategy, but what conventional person has ever done great things?” said Bessent, in an interview for my new podcast, “Pod Force One.” “Does anybody think that Winston Churchill was conventional? “[Trump is] also so flexible in terms of the way he looks at things,” Bessent said. “We’ve just spent basically the past 24 hours in the Situation Room over the Iran-Israel conflict, and I can tell you that the American people should know, and the American troops should know, that Donald Trump is doing an incredible job looking after their interests in what could turn, without someone like him, could turn into a widespread conflict that US soldiers and interests could get sucked into.”
In one fell swoop, Trump also restored the prestige of the US military, which had plummeted under Joe Biden.
Instead of thanking Trump for saving the world from a nuclear Iran, Democrats are pretending that he did something unconstitutional, and are whining that he didn’t fully inform Democratic leaders in Congress before the top secret operation. They only have themselves to blame for proving to be so unreliable with secrets in the past. Hello, Schifty Schiff.
Dems were fine with President Barack Obama bombing Libya, Syria and Pakistan an estimated 13,000 times, killing thousands of people, without asking Congress for permission. Remember then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton cackling over Libyan leader Moammar Khadafy’s gruesome end when he was sodomized and brutalized to death on camera as she watched lasciviously from afar: “We came, we saw, he died,” she said.
Democrats should sit this one out. Despite their threats to impeach him, Trump has seized the moral authority and no doubt his already buoyant approval ratings will soar. That’s the political dividend of strong leadership.
What GOP senator could refuse to pass Trump’s beloved Big Beautiful Bill now?
And as with everything Trump does, the visuals were impeccable. The icing on the cake was his brand new 100-foot flagpole out in front of the White House, with Old Glory waving languidly in the night breeze as the B-2s worked their magic half a world away.
