Operation Epstein Bury is going so well! Haven't heard about Epstein in days. (Except for that AI image of Trumpy trying to resurrect him)

We have about 40 planes flying over so sneaking through is not an option. But you can claim ships are going through at will if you want.

I'm not claiming it. The U.S. Navy is claiming it.

While the US military declared the blockade of Iranian ports effective as of April 13, 2026, and reported that at least six ships turned back, data suggests that around 20 or more commercial vessels, including Chinese-linked and Iranian-flagged tankers, successfully transited the Strait of Hormuz immediately following the announcement.

But multiple ships have seemingly ignored the warning, including Iran and China-linked vessels, by passing through the trade route in the last 24 hours.

Two of the Iran-linked vessels that passed through the strait, the Christianna and Elpis, sailing under the Liberian and Comoros flags respectively, had formerly been at Iranian ports, MarineTraffic data indicates.

The Madagascar-flagged tanker Murlikishan, which is under US sanctions for Iran-linked trade, travelled west through the strait after departing Lanshan in China.

Rich Starry, a Chinese-owned medium-range tanker carrying around 250,000 barrels of methanol, also appeared to pass through the waterway having loaded its cargo from the UAE, Reuters reported.

One of the questions that remains to be seen is how the U.S. will view the Tehran-provided route around Iran's Larak Island. As of last week, the route, which requires ships to provide documentation " and in some cases, payment " to the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps was still the most used way out of the Strait of Hormuz. Lloyd's List Intelligence tracked 50 out of 72 total transits using the route between April 6 and Sunday.

FYI-that route goes thru the Straits. It's just closer to Iran so more easily controlled by Iran and not blockaided
by the USN.

The ROI ranking measures efficiency (bang for your buck) rather than the absolute quality of life. A state with low tax revenue might rank higher in efficiency, even if a high-tax state has objectively better school systems.

Commie soyboy prefers to use all three at once. (Siri prefers soyboy so I'm sticking with it. Tired of fighting with her).

It's the new way to get your way or stuff done for free.

For example: Hire a bunch of immigrants handing out at Home Depot. Have them paint your house repair your fence and clean your driveway. Just as they are getting done call ICE.

Voila! Free stuff!

As an added bonus you may even get to keep their tools.

Thanks maga for making America great again!

Deport them.

Deport Americans?

To where? That's your plan? Deport anyone who breaks the law? To Australia?

Rigger please!

The left freaks out about Trump talking to people everyday.

You are such a fool.

Talking AT people is not the same as talking TO people.

The later requires that you also LISTEN to people.

So ... based on this study everyone needs to have immediately eat a raccoon penis and snort some cocaine off of toilet seats in order to counter the effects of fluoride in the water by order of the head of United States Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Before the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the subsequent years of reduced IRS funding, the net uncollected tax amount"known as the net tax gap"was estimated at roughly $381 billion per year (based on data from 2011"2013).

Based on IRS projections released in early 2026, the gross federal tax gap for 2022-2024 is estimated at $696 billion annually, with a projected net tax gap of $606 billion after late payments and enforcement actions. This represents taxes owed but not paid on time, largely driven by $539 billion in underreporting.

Nicely done maga maroons.
