Summary
<p>Day 60 of Operation Epic Fury — except it's not called that anymore. Or a war. Or active kinetic bombing. We track every name the administration has given this thing depending on who's asking and what court they're standing in. Trump tells Congress the ceasefire stopped the War Powers Act clock, calls the seized Iranian oil tanker situation "a very profitable business," and compares the U.S. Navy to pirates. We do the actual math on that profitable business — spoiler: $6 billion in denied Iranian revenue vs. $25-58 billion in U.S. costs, 13 dead service members, gas at $4.39, and Spirit Airlines becoming the first U.S. casualty airline. Plus: Project Freedom paused after less than 24 hours, the Dark Eagle hypersonic gets called up at $15 million per missile, Iran says peace talks need a Lebanon ceasefire (good luck), Israel "didn't know" a deal was close and has "a series of targets ready," Powell refuses to leave the Fed board, Republicans want $1 billion in taxpayer money for Trump's privately-funded ballroom, and Howard "Lord of Commerce" Lutnick can't recall why his family lunched on Epstein's island. </p><p>Live Show Dates: www.RobBernsteinComedy.com/Events</p><p>Porch Tour host signups: thefiretix.com</p><p>Subscriber Content: www.RobBernsteinComedy.com </p><p>Paywalled: a JPMorgan banker's threesome lawsuit, Bryan Johnson rates his girlfriend's V microbiome, dating apps by credit score, and the Sarajevo human safari book.</p><p></p><p><br /></p>
