Rubio mocked it and Tulsi Gabbard said recently that the former American strategy of regime change is over and I guess there would be no point in going into Venezuela unless it was regime change.

And so the question we have now is it true that Trump has ruled out any land-based military action in Venezuela? Is that true? Or is he playing an Iran game where he's telling them it's not going to happen right before it happens because that's sort of what he did with Iran and it worked. We don't know. My guess is that he's finding out that a land invasion would be so unpopular with at least half or more of MAGA that it wouldn't be worth the squeeze. Would you agree? How many of you would be just maddened if he started a land war? Even if it looked like, oh, this won't take long, you know, 30 days will be done, but you wouldn't believe it, right? You wouldn't believe it'd be done in 30 days. You'd think it last forever like everything.

I'm looking at the comments. Yeah. So it could be an entirely, yeah, it may be that he just did a trial balloon and that it didn't go over at all. And since it didn't go over at all, maybe he backed off or it could be they have some completely different strategy that doesn't require it. So there's a lot of unknowns there. Fog of war. Too many unknowns.

According to Townhall, Amy Curtis is writing that Manny plans to tax businesses even if they're based outside of New York City. First of all, does he have the power to tax anything? The mayor, does the mayor have taxing power? Not sure how that works, but allegedly even if you moved your business out of the state or if you're doing business in the state, but it's not where you're domiciled, he still wants to tax you. How could you actually make that work?

So he says, I guess he said recently, oops, he said recently, so the way this tax works is it applies to any business doing business here, meaning New York City. They could be located in Miami, but if they're doing business in New York, it applies to them. Well, wait a minute. Isn't that the current situation? If you had a corporate entity in one state, but let's say your Walmart stores are in other states, don't the Walmart stores get taxed in the states where they do business as opposed to where their corporate entity is located? I'm not sure how different this is. So maybe he's not so good on the details. So I'm not sure this is a real story. Actually, the more I think about it, it doesn't look like a real story. So big question mark on that one.

CNN is reporting that according to the FBI, they thwarted an ISIS-inspired attack. That would be a terrorist attack. I guess there were rifles they found and there
