Just a Thought...

I know this post will make some mad and some will question my loyalty, but history itself has shown that sometimes the most loyal of all...the most loyal to our beloved America... are those who are NOT afraid to speak the truth. As a Constitutional Republican I consider myself to be one of those people.

Europe Plans Postwar Hormuz Security Mission Without US: WSJ

European powers are drawing up a postwar plan to secure shipping through the Strait of Hormuz that would deliberately exclude the United States, The Wall Street Journal reported.

The report cited officials and diplomats familiar with the discussions.

French President Emmanuel Macron said Tuesday the proposal envisions an international defensive coalition that would not include “belligerent” parties in the conflict, specifically the U.S., Israel, and Iran, the Journal reported.

European diplomats told the Journal that the effort is designed to reassure commercial shippers that the vital corridor will be safe to use once hostilities end, even as officials acknowledge that a ceasefire could still be some time away.

The plan would rely on European command structures rather than U.S. leadership, a notable shift that underscores growing trans-Atlantic tensions, according to the Journal. Read more, and see video here.

Midterm Polling Gives Senate Republicans a Path to Victory
Amy Curtis / Townhall Tipsheet 
 
With the midterms approaching, Republicans are zeroing in on a targeted strategy to win back swing voters and Trump voters who don’t typically turn out in off-year elections. Those voters will be critical to maintaining a Republican majority in the Senate next year.  

That message centers on the economy and cost of living, and the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) says new polling, exclusively provided to Townhall, shows a clear path to rebuilding a winning coalition after President Trump's 2024 win.

That polling shows the cost of living is the overwhelming issue driving the midterms, with 92 percent of swing voters and 85 percent of infrequent Trump voters concerned about it. Of the cost-of-living issues, three major areas stand out: prescription drug prices, housing costs, and Social Security taxes.

Majorities in both groups say they are more likely to support candidates who "crack down" on Big Pharma to stop skyrocketing drug costs, prohibit investment firms and large corporations from purchasing residential housing and driving up costs, and eliminate taxes on Social Security. Read more, and see X here
