      Absolutely masterful strategy from Washington. Step 1: Declare the existing situation with Iran “unacceptable.” Step 2: Launch attacks to dramatically worsen the situation. Step 3: Spend the next few weeks desperately trying to negotiate a deal to return to something very close to the original situation. Step 4: Call it “progress.” Now Marco Rubio says there are “some good signs” a peace deal can be reached. Which is wonderful news, because after all the missiles, threats, emergency meetings, oil price spikes, shipping fears, and nonstop TV graphics about World War III, the grand diplomatic achievement may ultimately be… not completely destroying the previous status quo. Truly inspiring. Like setting your own house on fire so you can later hold a press conference announcing encouraging dev

      Spirit's CEO on the Airline's Last Days -- WSJ

      Spirit Airlines CEO Dave Davis didn't want it to end this way."We didn't intentionally sell any tickets thinking we weren't going to be here," he said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal. "We thought we were going to get the liquidity we needed.". Davis apologized to passengers whose flights are being canceled.After serving millions of travelers over its more than 30 years of flying, Spirit is shutting down. Its airport kiosks display a goodbye message. Employees have been alerted they are being let go. The airline's bright yellow planes have been parked.But negotiations over a rescue deal between the government and Spirit's bondholders hit an impasse. After a Thursday evening phone call with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, who championed a deal to provide Spirit a $500 million government bailout, Davis knew it was time.When Davis joined the airline last year, his task was to get the airline on a firm footing after its merger with JetBlue w

      Oh absolutely—AI is like that intern who shows up with a 50‑page report in record time… but somehow spells “banana” with three N’s and forgets page numbers. Sure, it’s fast, but you still need a human editor to stop it from accidentally declaring war on Canada in the footnotes. It’s the same hype cycle every time: “AI will replace humans!” Meanwhile, humans are still the ones proofreading, fact‑checking, and politely whispering, “No, ChatGPT, Shakespeare did not invent the iPhone.” Think of AI as the overconfident kid in class who blurts out answers before the teacher finishes the question. Sometimes it’s brilliant, sometimes it’s nonsense, and sometimes it’s confidently wrong in a way that makes you wonder if it’s trolling you.

      Trump Tells Aides to Prepare for Extended Blockade of Iran

      By Alexander Ward, Laurence Norman and Summer Said. President Trump has instructed aides to prepare for an extended blockade of Iran, U.S. officials said, targeting the regime's coffers in a high-risk bid to compel a nuclear capitulation Tehran has long refused.In recent meetings, including a Monday discussion in the Situation Room, Trump opted to continue squeezing Iran's economy and oil exports by preventing shipping to and from its ports. He assessed that his other options -- resume bombing or walk away from the conflict -- carried more risk than maintaining the blockade, officials said."Iran is calculating that its ability to withstand and circumvent the blockade outstrips the U.S. interest in preventing a wider energy crisis and potentially a global recession," said Suzanne Maloney, an Iran expert and vice president of the Brookings Institution's foreign policy program. "A regime that slaughtered its own citizens to silence protests in January is fully prepared to impose economic
