Media is covering the “feud” between Trump and Musk like The Beatles were breaking up again. (For the younger reader, Paul McCartney was in a band before Wings.)  Which is why I have not read a single one of the now uncountable number of stories written about the “end of the ‘bromance.'”  Political feuds, and that is all this is, are as common as toast for breakfast.

It turns out Iran is in complete disarray because the truckers have gone on strike and bakers are now joining in. This is big news given that Iran is enemy number one in the Middle East, being the power behind both Hamas and Hezbollah. And yet, I only find out about it from a Christian outlet (linked above). I could only confirm it from a group called the “National Council of Resistance of Iran” and the only domestic coverage I could find was a days old AP story, that clearly no one picked up.
