The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Based on available reports from April 2026, Fox News primarily reported the substance of President Trump’s ultimatum while generally sanitizing or paraphrasing the specific "fuckin' crazy" language in their direct digital reporting.How

Fox News Handled the Quote

While other outlets like The Guardian and Hindustan Times quoted the Truth Social post in its entirety—including the phrases "Open the Fuckin’ Strait" and "you crazy bastards"—Fox News Digital typically described the message as an "expletive-laden ultimatum" or a "profanity-laced threat."

Sanitized Reporting:

In their live updates, Fox News reported that Trump warned Iran that "all hell will rain down" if the Strait of Hormuz remained closed.


Don't the American people deserve to hear directly from our POTUS?

Just quote the fuckn' crazy guy without sanitizing!
