“He’s not messing around,” U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz said this week of Mr. Trump. “The Iranians learned painfully that he will use sticks as well as carrots.”

WHAT ABOUT THAT?
She brilliantly cornered the board.
- The swift recess proves their hypocrisy, they cannot stomach the sight of a 50-year-old woman in a swimsuit, but they will mandate that teenage girls change next to biological boys.
