Top O’ the Briefing
Happy Monday, Morning Briefing readers! Kruiser is off celebrating his birthday, so you’re stuck with me today. Please feel free to shower him with lots of praise and affection in the comments section and be sure to add that he doesn’t look a day over 30. (He may or may not have paid me to say that.)
It was sunny and 70 in Atlanta this weekend, so I actually took a little time off myself to work in my garden, but while I was busy starting tomato seeds and clearing weeds, you may have heard that the Israeli and U.S. militaries began what Donald Trump called “major combat operations” against the regime in Iran.
Thankfully, Kruiser was fast enough to break the news for us, and what followed felt like a weekend of nonstop new reports of deaths of supreme leaders, retaliation attempts, a few homegrown terror attacks, and the usual suspects in Congress getting their panties in a wad because Donald Trump wakes up in the morning.
Of course, I was checking in regularly, and all I could think was what a time to be alive. 2026! Am I right?
We are two months in, and we have:
- Decapitated two of the most oppressive regimes in the world
- A third is about to follow (*waves at Cuba*)
- Taken out one of the most infamous cartel leaders in Mexico.
- Witnessed one of the best State of the Union speeches we’ve heard in our lifetimes
- Dominated the Winter Olympics
- Probably done other stuff I can’t remember or am not even aware of
Since January 3, it’s felt less like a news cycle and more like a nonstop adrenaline rush. I don’t think I’ve ever loved this country more, and I am fairly certain I was waving a little U.S. flag the moment my toddler’s hands could hold one.
I saw this video on Instagram over the weekend, and I felt it in my bones (minus the Texas football clip).
We are so bada** once again, and we have one man to thank for that. To quote one of my favorite journalists, “Trump is… changing the world.” But he’s not just doing that. He’s exposing the establishment.
For decades, we’ve been told that foreign policy is complicated, that restraint is really strength, and that endless wars are just the price we pay for peace and stability. It turns out, those weren’t facts, just choices made by weak leaders or leaders with ulterior motives. We were lied to. None of that is real.
Trump has the mentality that any American president should — the belief that you can just (and should)… do things for the good of your country and the good of the world. When you become the president of the United States, you possess enormous power. Thankfully, Trump is using it to revive our country after years of managed decline.
This idea is catching on with many people in our country:
I dunno man seems like wars are super easy when the objective is to win and not launder a trillion dollars to your friends in the DC-VA-MD area for decades

The fact that a billionaire real estate playboy who liked to slap his name on steaks and wine has proven to be a better diplomat and military strategist than every other politician and foreign policy expert over the last 30 years is such a damning indictment of the DC… https://t.co/Qp2QRAAMTg

Of course, the usual suspects — most of the left and some supposed conservatives and Republicans — came out against getting rid of some of the most evil men in the world almost immediately. To be honest, it’s all become so boring. If they were actually standing for some sort of value system, I could appreciate that, but “Donald Trump bad” is not a value system. It’s more of a mental illness at this point. He could say blue is a beautiful color, and they’d be out marching and issuing statements in favor of red tomorrow.
It will never not be hilarious that the same retarded, SSRI-gobbling weirdos who walked around dressed as handmaidens are now collectively wetting themselves because Donald Trump killed the guy who literally made women walk around dressed as handmaidens. pic.twitter.com/GeUz9Qe1JU

But do you know whose voices are louder than those with Trump Derangement Syndrome? The Iranian-Americans. The Cuban-Americans. The Venezuelan-Americans. The people who live in the United States but have actually experienced real tyranny and oppression. They make our country’s leftists look like a bunch of spoiled, bratty children, and thankfully, their voices have been much louder over the weekend. From Los Angeles to Atlanta, the celebrations were impossible to ignore… even if CBS tried to get its reporters to ignore them:
🚨 BREAKING: This Austin CBS reporter is being praised nationwide for REFUSING to follow orders from a higherup to IGNORE massive support for Trump and Israel obliterating Khamenei
“They don’t want us to focus on this…”
“Alright. Well, I AM.”
THAT’S how you do it! 👏🏻 pic.twitter.com/FvB8o4d4dM

I don’t know about you, but I want to be on the side with the guy who stands up to evil and brings hope to millions of people. I want to be on the side of the guy who recognizes what makes our country great and defends it.
I want to be on the side of the guy who wins.
The Marco Minute
You know who else is changing the world? This guy. I’ve been trying to tell people for years. Marco Rubio said this before heading to Munich a couple of weeks ago, and we’re watching it play out in real time.
🚨 JUST IN: That Marco Rubio clip is hitting different now. He said the world is changing very fast. The old world is gone. People laughed.
Now look. Maduro gone. Khamenei gone. The old guard collapsing in real time.
Rubio warned we are entering a new geopolitical era and we… pic.twitter.com/c1DSJCeIhL

Usually, I would tell y’all to write to Kruiser and insist he make “The Marco Minute” a regular part of the Morning Briefing, but last time I tried that, he failed completely. Now, I’m not saying don’t write to him and insist he make “The Marco Minute” a regular part of the Morning Briefing, but if you do, tell him “happy birthday” and thank him while you’re at it. He’s a big reason why we’re all here on our little slice of the internet and deserves some gratitude for that.
