Energy Security and the global security conditions it requires have all changed before our very eyes.

U.S. energy dominance is the new kid on the block.

When you have cards to play, play them at the right time.

In case you missed my recent Q&A, the full transcript is now available on Substack. We covered the ground that matters most right now, including the hybrid war reshaping the global order, the internal subversion still operating within our own government, the threats converging at our southern border, and what it will take to hold this republic together heading into 2026.

How is it that the Texas education system has fallen so far from teaching the truth?

There are a few members of the TX congressional delegation that have stepped up. However, we need even action, otherwise, we’re going to lose a large state to a way of life that is incompatible to our constitutional republic.

SITREP: Iran War Next Steps (What should President Donald J. Trump do now)?

Trump should double down on “peace through strength” with immediate, targeted military, economic & diplomatic pressure rather than chasing another round of endless talks that are only buying the Iranian regime & its CCP weapons depot time.

Like this war or not (and I do not), what is good for America is to figure out the best way to declare victory & turn this gas station over to those who benefit most.

Face it, the regime won’t voluntarily surrender its nuclear insurance policy nor its ability to extort the world via the Strait of Hormuz. Not happening.

Here’s my initial take on the next moves, based on the facts on the ground time now.

1. Remain absolutely rock steady. This is not a time to blink. Enforce the ultimatum with calibrated strikes. Let Iran know as well as China & North Korea and any other bad actor that deadlines are not suggestions. They have meaning & they have teeth.

2. Execute a maximum economic pressure campaign. Essentially strangle the regime’s revenue. Reimpose & expand secondary sanctions on anyone buying Iranian oil or helping evade restrictions. The reopening of the Straits of Hormuz issue is economic warfare. Keep it open by naval presence if needed but place demands on those nations who benefit the most to step up & provide security guarantees. Iran’s economy is hurting now so pair sanctions with public messaging that relief only comes after verifiable nuclear dismantlement & cessation of support for proxy groups (these groups have not only attacked Israel, they’ve attacked & killed/maimed thousands of Americans over decades). Starve the IRGC & the mullahs, don’t subsidize them as previous administrations have done.

3. Execute a strategic messaging campaign amplifying support for the Iranian people. Regime change from within is the long game (face it Mr. POTUS , there hasn’t been any sort of effective regime change yet). However, there are clear cracks in the regime. Broadcast that the U.S. stands with Iranians who want to ditch the theocracy, and not with the Supreme Leader’s successors. There will be no U.S. “boots on the ground”. Instead smartly apply asymmetry and hybrid aspects of warfare (ie., info ops, cyber support, shrewdly backing opposition voices, etc). History shows authoritarian regimes crack when their own populations turn on them. This isn’t neoconservative nation-building, it’s leveraging America’s soft power where it works.

4. Initiate diplomatic isolation, instead of getting into endless talks.
Work the partnerships & alliances that matter (some in Asia have little choice due to energy needs). Many of these partners want Iran contained anyway. Like it or not, even reluctant players in Europe must be engaged. Only use back channels if Iran shows real movement. No more “frameworks” or 10-point plans that buy the regime time. They haven’t worked in Ukraine, they most certainly won’t work with Iran. The U.S. has great leverage (superior military, energy independence, & strong alliances) while Iran has none, except short-term disruption.

Mr. Trump, you already said it, they have “no cards.” Act like it. This isn’t warmongering, it’s realism.

The JCPOA-era carrots first approach was a spectacular failure. Iran enriched closer to weapons-grade while pocketing billions of U.S. dollars in cash. President Trump’s first-term pressure campaign brought them to the table before. Now, post-strikes, & with a fresh ceasefire broken on their end, hesitation just invites more attacks on shipping, proxies, & eventually a nuclear fate accomplished.

President Trump‘s instincts here have been right so far (project strength, set clear terms, and don’t negotiate with weakness). Follow through decisively & Iran folds or collapses. The alternative are more talks while they rebuild. That’s how we got here in the first place.

As you said Mr. President, the U.S. wins either way. Time to make it obvious.

This is real time (hint: this isn’t the Straits of Hormuz).

This requires far more attention by the White House and far more national discussion from the POTUS and our new DHS Secretary Mullin & acting AG Todd Blanche

I can state emphatically this problem was known by this White House and those in the FBI and CIA back in 2017. It has NOT gotten better, especially with the open borders policy during the Joe Biden false presidency.

Speaking for myself (and probably millions of other Americans), I want all these member names uncovered immediately and I want all the Epstein files released. This information is “The People’s” information and it belongs on the public record in order for us to make better and more informed decisions as to those who are suppose to represent us in this constitutional republic. I, for one, don’t want a bunch of immoral scumbags running our country!

Every American deserves to know their vote counts and their vote is protected. We cannot keep running elections through a system that has been compromised for who knows how long. Voter ID, paper ballots, no machines, no mail-in ballots. These are not radical ideas. They are common sense. Most of the world does it this way. The primaries are already underway and if we do not have safe and secure elections in place before the general elections, nothing changes. It is that simple.

Fight Like An O’Flynn

Go get’m cuz!

ALL OF THEM MUST BE EXPOSED.

If Congress has this sick of a culture (and it appears they do), all those members who have been serving for more than a few terms (all of them) knew about this behavior and said NOTHING! They all need to go!!!

We need so many Congressional reforms, but especially term limits along with a few more arrests. This sick immoral disease-like culture must be rooted of OUR Congress!
