Trevor Lawrence says Jaguars' success 'sustainable' after one-year turnaround ends in wild-card exit https://www.nfl.com/news/trevor-lawrence-jaguars-regular-season-success-sustainable-heading-into-2026

Observers have spent two weeks trying to discern the “aims” of Trump’s war on Iran,
and therefore what might constitute a victory or defeat.
His every bizarre utterance about his war “plans”
— including wildly conflicting declarations that Iran has surrendered and the war must be expanded to defeat the regime
— immediately move markets.
The evident fact, though, is that Trump is completely nuts, and that he’s “governing” the country

Trump’s military excursion, into an abyss
The evident fact is that the president is nuts.

This can't be repeated enough, forget the fairytales about the US being an ally of the EU. And therefore the US is also NOT an ally of the member states that think the EU is important for their prosperity and safety.
