Hormuz and Beyond

Posted on July 19, 2026 by Craig Andresen

Far too many people, even some on the right side of the political aisle have a narrow view regarding the Strait of Hormuz and are far too quick to condemn Trump for “mishandling the war.”

They claim that President Trump has made the war against Iran “all about oil” and “all about the Strait of Hormuz” proclaiming over and over again that “we don’t get any oil from Hormuz, and we should have left the Hormuz situation to those that do get their oil from it.” To suggest, or believe that the U.S. doesn’t benefit from shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, or that others should have been left to deal with it because we don’t benefit from it is myopic and in some cases, hypocritical.

It’s time to set the record straight, especially for those who have complained that the war is all about oil, and everything else has been ignored.

Socialism – The DNC’s Master Plan

Socialism. It doesn’t work. Anywhere. It never has and it never will, but today’s liberal knotheads in the U.S. claim that it just hasn’t been done the right way.

Here’s a hint…there is no “right way” to drop an anvil on your foot so that it doesn’t leave you wishing you hadn’t done it.

For those chirping about how different socialism is from communism and trying to claim that Republicans and Conservatives don’t know the difference between them, we do, and we also know that socialism, according to Marxist theory, is the transitional phase immediately following the overthrow of capitalism. During this stage, the “working class” controls the state and economy, eventually paving the way for a fully realized, stateless, and classless communist society.

I put quotation marks around “working class” for a reason and I’ll get back to that shortly.

Our Quirky Founding Fathers

Those of us lucky enough to have received an education rather than an indoctrination think of our nation’s Founding Fathers as serious men on a mission. History books are filled with their grand achievements, their deep thoughts, boldness, courage and their vision for a new nation.

That particular association of the Founders regarding their gravitas has been made more compelling through paintings and etchings depicting them as very serious fellows, but there are things about them that while true, seem to have been glossed over unless one is willing to take a deeper dive into their…quirkiness.

Let’s start at the top with the Father of our Country – George Washington.

We all know that certain presidents have been known to spout off from time to time. Harry S. Truman reportedly had no problem calling a “son-of-a-bitch” a “son-of-a-bitch,” and both LBJ and Nixon were widely known to use colorful language, but a deep dive into our first president reveals the man had an explosive temper and a short fuse. He was also, reportedly, fond of swearing.

“The Deal” – Pragmatism vs. Emotionalism

A pragmatist is a person who approaches problems, decisions, and beliefs based on practical, real-world results rather than abstract theories, ideals, or emotions.

When it comes to the Middle East, there is no shortage of emotional responses, theories and ideals. I understand those points of view and while I certainly do NOT agree with such emotional anti Semitic views as expressed by the vast majority of the liberals, I DO stand with Israel, the Jewish people and Prime Minister Netanyahu.

Netanyahu has wisely stated, “If Israel’s enemies put down their weapons today, there would be peace, If Israel put down her weapons today, there would be no Israel.” That is a very pragmatic view. It is based in historical reality. Since 1948 when Israel officially became a nation, they have wanted to live peacefully with their neighbors, but the fact remains, Israel’s neighbors have, for the most part, wanted Israel eliminated.

The Caregiver’s Revenge

After 4 very long years of the Joe Biden occupancy of the Oval Office, after 4 very long years of nonsensical yarns blathered by the dazed and confused Joe Biden, after 4 very long years of watching Joe Biden stumbling, bumbling, falling on stairs, falling off his bike and wandering aimlessly about the White House lawn…what I’m about to get into should come as no great surprise.

After the whole world saw Biden shaking hands with invisible people…time and time again, after the whole world listened while Biden related a conversation he had had with an Amtrak Conductor years after that Conductor had died, a story Joe told time and time again, after the whole world watched creepy Joe sniffing girl’s hair…time and time again and listening while the old dolt related a yarn about his uncle being EATEN BY CANNIBALS…what I’m about to get into certainly isn’t breaking news.

In 2020, Joe Biden campaigned from his basement, and when he was allowed out of his habitat, crowds were, at best, sparse, comprised of 10’s of people, and Joe wasn’t allowed to talk to the press. But he supposedly got 81 million votes.

Uh-huh.

The Forensic Flogging of a Dead Horse

An autopsy is a surgical procedure that consists of a thorough examination of a corpse by dissection to determine the cause, mode, and manner of death; or the exam may be performed to evaluate any disease or injury that may be present for research or educational purposes.

Sometimes, an autopsy isn’t really necessary if one simply employs common sense.

Here’s an example…let’s say that someone in early 2022 goes skydiving, jumps out of a perfectly functional airplane at 12 thousand feet, and that person’s parachute fails to deploy. Now, common sense would lead one to believe that it wasn’t the fall, rather the sudden stop at the end of it which was the cause of death. However, liberals would have listed that skydiver’s cause of death, after an autopsy, as being directly related to COVID-19.

The recently released autopsy report regarding Kamala Harris and the sudden stop experienced at the end of her 2024 campaign, is no less insane.

Operation Let Them Talk

Every time a prominent liberal opens their pie-hole, what comes out is pure rubbish, propaganda or nonsense which prompts those on the right to label them as idiots. It’s a fair assessment. For the most part, it is accurate and an apt description of the mental acuity of said liberals.

Some on the right wish the prominent liberals, be they from the media, Hollywierd or the halls of congress would just sit down and shut the hell up, but I believe that would be a mistake.

Operation Let Them Talk, simply put, could well be the best thing for those on the right side of the political aisle who seek election. Day in, and day out, the liberals are creating political ads for 2026, and 2028…for Republican candidates.

Let me give you a few examples.

On April, 8^th, 2026, President Trump announced a ceasefire with Iran which was initially supposed to last two weeks. Pakistan, working as the middleman introduced a framework for a ten point “peace agreement plan,” which has now, in various forms, been on the table for the past month. Up until now, all “negotiations” have failed, and while I strongly disagree with “negotiating” with terrorists, and make no mistake, Iran is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, the “negotiations” have been pretty limited to President Trump telling Iran what to do, and Iran saying, “no.”

If we go back to the end of the first week of military operations, President Trump demanded “unconditional surrender” from Iran to halt US and Israeli air strikes, stating he would accept no deal otherwise. He asserted that Iran’s military was ineffective and called for the nation to “wave the white flag” To be crystal clear, while some Republicans are clinging to that statement and are expressing dismay that President Trump has seemingly backed away from it, “unconditional surrender” was never the reason for going to war with Iran, it was but a suggested off-ramp for the Iranian regime to bring the devastating bombardment to a halt quickly.

Gaslighting vs. The Receipts

Last week, just 24 hours after the third assassination attempt against President Trump, Barack Hussein Obama, seeing that liberal propagandists were losing to the clear facts, decided to weigh in with what sure appeared to be a last-ditch effort to to bolster the liberal litany of lies.

Obama claimed that the shooter’s motive was…unclear.

There was just one tiny problem…Cole Thomas Allen’s manifesto, the shooters own written words regarding his motive, had been released to the public nearly 10 hours earlier. Perhaps Obama didn’t get the memo…nobody outside violent bought and paid for activists and homicidal maniacs are buying the crap he’s trying to sell.

Cole Thomas Allen laid out all the liberal talking points and marching orders…a laundry list of absolute bullcrap…the same bullcrap so prevalent amongst those suffering from stage 4 Trump Derangement Syndrome removing all doubt as to his motivation and from where he got it. It was already in the public forum, but there was Obama, trying as liberals so often do to tell us that the words actually written by the shooter didn’t mean what they clearly meant.

I’m sick of having to cover these stories, and I’m livid over what we now know regarding the perpetrator of yet another assassination attempt on the life of President Donald Trump. I’m sick and tired of what has led up to this, and I’m beyond pissed at those who either try to downplay it, dismiss it or excuse it.

Enough!!

Last Saturday evening, President Trump was making his first appearance at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner at the Washington Hilton. Over the past couple of weeks, since President Trump made the announcement that he would indeed attend the event, the first time has decided to do so, liberals…be they garden variety liberals, elected liberals or liberal members of the propaganda media did what they always do…they pitched a fit.

In the days leading up to the annual event, 250 members of the liberal propaganda media were urging a “forceful” protest or boycott of the event. And their reasoning for urging a liberal propaganda media boycott of the annual White House Correspondent’s Dinner? Because, according TO those members of the liberal propaganda media, “Trump contradicts the event’s purpose,” asserting that, “Trump is an enemy of free speech.”

Really?
