Mitt Romney:

I am not running for president in 2028.

The human brain shrinks by about 20% by the time you're 80 years of age. Twenty percent smaller—the size of the brain itself.

Mitt Romney:

The amount of money a few people are getting concerns me. The idea that Elon Musk is going to be a trillionaire—what does that mean? We're talking about a thousand billions.

He could drop a couple of billion dollars into a political campaign to support someone who would give him even more power.

And he's not the only one. There are others who are going to become worth hundreds of billions of dollars, and they will influence our political system.

After they wage war on Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, they need another enemy to get somebody to pity them.

They are trying to do that with Türkiye.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan:

The policies of Netanyahu's government are not only a problem for us.

His policies and his government are a burden for Israel, a burden for the region, and a burden and a threat to international security.

And I think Trump gets that too.
