There is a League of Gerards… Baker, Butler, Lyon (a pro Brexit economics) and Depardieu are in the BAD Gerards side of the ledger.

My basic assumption is that the Trump administration is lying. At all times. So I will definitely be more likely to believe the Iranians... It's not even close.

Thank you for this thread 🧵 @kenwhite.bsky.social.

He has kept his streak alive of being wrong. Iraq. 2008 financial crisis. Obama. Biden. Etc. Now this. And yet he still is opining away…

Where is the stage that he actually reflects and admits he was wrong and the critics he derided in earlier stages were right? Or the stage where the publishers decide his erroneous opinions are no longer credible enough for print?
