Six months ago, tonight, Tehran went dark. All of Iran went dark. And into that darkness, millions of Iranians walked out of their homes anyway. January 8th and 9th were not just two nights of protest. They were the night Iran's silence broke. Millions came into the streets, into the squares, onto their rooftops — but the regime answered them with bullets. Tens of thousands of my compatriots were killed in those forty-eight hours. Tens of thousands more have been arrested, tortured, and sentenced to die since. They came out, determined and brave. I think of them every day. On those two nights I lost countrymen I will never get to meet. I do not hear a statistic when I hear the number 40,000. I see a son who did not come home to his mother. A daughter who will not sit at her family's table again. I think of each of them the way I would think of my own child, my own brother, my own sister. I carry the weight of every one of those names. But the families of the fallen I meet with, week after week, hearten our nation's will to carry on. Their children did not die in vain. They died for freedom, and they died with pride. History will remember what these men and women did; I will make sure of it. Like the resistance who stood against tyranny in occupied Europe, and like the revolutionaries who fought for liberty in America. But theirs was a particular bravery. They had no army, no air cover, nothing but the belief in what they stood for. They stood anyway. A united nation choosing to face the guns together rather than live one more day in fear. The men and women of the 8th and 9th of January will be remembered in Iran's history as the greatest generation that preferred to die free and standing than to live cowered on their knees. To the international community, I ask this: do not let a negotiating table in Geneva or Islamabad erase what happened in the streets of Tehran, Mashhad, and Kermanshah. They died for freedom. And when they are free, the Strait of Hormuz will open. The nuclear threat will end. And we will have true peace. I have told my compatriots: what you did on January 8th and 9th cannot be undone. Together, we will reclaim our country’s rightful place in the world, our national dignity, and honor the lives of our heroes. Now is the time to reassess, regroup, and rededicate ourselves to victory. We honor the fallen by finishing what they started. A free Iran is no longer a matter of hope. It is a matter of fact. And know that my brave compatriots are not just fighting for their own liberation but for the peace and stability of the world.

Claude Fable 5 will be available again globally tomorrow. After a series of productive conversations with the US government, we're redeploying the model with a new set of classifiers to target and block more cybersecurity tasks. In the near term, some routine tasks like coding and debugging will fall back to Opus 4.8. We’ll continue to refine these classifiers over the coming weeks to reduce false positives and better distinguish genuine misuse from legitimate requests. We’ve also begun drafting a consensus framework—with Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and other Glasswing partners—for assessing the severity of AI jailbreaks and how AI developers should respond to them. We invite other industry partners and model providers to join us in this effort. Finally, we’re scaling up our collaboration with the US government on model testing and safeguards. This will include pre-release access to models and safeguards for evaluation, information sharing on jailbreaks and misuse, and dedicated resources for joint research. Thank you to our users for your patience, and to our partners across the government, industry, and the research community who worked alongside us to make Fable 5 available again.

Marco Rubio on Israel: "Israel's wealth lay not under the ground, but in its people, the Jewish people, who made the desert bloom into a high-tech superpower." God bless you, @SecRubio 🙏🇺🇸🇮🇱

The unbreakable bond between the Jewish people and the Iranians. A free Iran would be Israel's greatest ally in the Middle East. 🇮🇷❤️🇮🇱

It’s wild how many folks replied with stats after I called the Rangers “the best org in baseball,” entirely missing the point that for these guys, Christ is better and more important than any record will EVER be. Earthly things will fade. Repent and believe!

Nearly 1/4 of the @Rangers roster here to share about their faith post-game. Happy June from the best organization in baseball

90 million Iranians are still hostages to the regime.

The deal would be good news for China, Russia, and Qatar. It teaches a simple lesson: Kill tens of thousands of your own citizens. Attack U.S. allies. Close one of the world’s most important straits. And you’ll be rewarded with a deal. My interview tonight 👇

‘I don’t think you can make a deal with a regime that is basically a terrorist regime.’ Iranian journalist Mani Basharzad believes that there can’t be a US-Iran deal without ‘commitment’ from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. 📺 Freeview 236, Sky 512, Virgin 604

I’m so strongly opposed to your cause and everything Muslims stand for that I’d volunteer for the IDF in a heartbeat and fight for Israel against you mfs. Israel took a tiny strip of land and turned it into a prosperous, thriving country, while you guys turn everywhere you go into a 💩.

"Your price is too high" is not an objection. It's a symptom. Here's the framework I use that's saved me from giving away millions in discounts: When someone pushes back on price, I say: "In my experience, price resistance at this stage usually comes from one of three places: 1. You're not convinced we'll deliver the value 2. There's a logistical constraint (budget, timing, approvals) 3. You're doing your job and trying to get the best deal possible Which of those three resonates most with you?" Then I SHUT UP. Here's what happens: If they say #1: I get to do more discovery. "Let's take a step back and make sure we're aligned on the business case..." If they say #2: I problem-solve. "Walk me through the constraint. Maybe we can structure this differently..." If they say #3: I negotiate (but only if it's truly the last thing). "I respect that. Let's talk about what a win-win looks like..." This framework turns a dead-end objection into a productive conversation. Most reps hear "too expensive" and immediately start discounting. Top earners isolate the objection into buckets and solve the real problem.

🚨 New York Democrats just voted to erase "Mother" and "Father”. Governor Kathy Hochul will be replacing "mother" with "gestating parent" and "father" with "non-gestating parent." This isn't inclusion, it's insanity. While New Yorkers battle sky-high taxes, crime, and failing schools, The state is obsessed with rewriting biology and the English language. Real parents don't need woke bureaucrats redefining them. Reject this nonsense.

Amen. Thank you for standing @conservmillen Maranatha ✝️

James Talarico says “all religions of love point to the same truth.” But Christianity teaches the opposite. In John 14:6, Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” You can respect other religions but you can’t claim they

Tough times for sure - I guess tough time would be more appropriate... Really just the Luka debacle. But I don't blame you. And I also haven't forgotten the rest of your amazing history with the Mavs. Thanks for everything, may you & your family be blessed moving forward 🙏
