Great. When do we send in the troops? Or is the surrender idea over?
Complete, Pretty Much
The Wall Street Journal reports Stocks Bounce on Trump War-Progress Comments.
Stocks rallied and oil fell after CBS News reported that President Trump said the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran was “very far ahead of schedule” and “very complete, pretty much.”
Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, slid below $90 a barrel after the presiden’t comments. It had surged overnight, hitting its highest intraday level since mid-2022. The U.S. benchmark dropped to about $85 a barrel, after surging above $119 earlier.
Stocks opened the session lower, but pared declines as the oil slide moderated, then rallied into the close after Trump’s latest remarks. The Nasdaq composite led indexes with a gain of 1.4%. The Dow industrials rose 239 points after being down almost 900 points in early trading.
One turning point came when France’s finance minister said the Group of Seven advanced economies was prepared to release strategic oil reserves to stabilize the global energy market if necessary. The remarks came after an extraordinary meeting of the group and as Gulf oil producers cut production amid shipping disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz.
The bond markets remained volatile, with the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield pushing above 4.2% before retreating back near 4.1%. The dollar climbed. Investors fear the energy-price spike could feed inflation and dampen growth, raising the specter of stagflation.
Questions Abound
If the war is very much complete, why are things like this happening?
If the war is very much complete, what the hell is Lindsey Graham yapping about?
Why are we evacuating embassies?
I would be happy to declare the war over, but need I remind you of the Irony of the Day: Trump Demands ‘Unconditional Surrender’ by Iran Without Declaring War
Unconditional surrender will take boots on the ground.
Or did Iran just surrender?
Lady Graham continues to be a buffoon
Netanyahu must have something extra juicy on him, from the way he’s been acting.
Trump wants to TACO, but interestingly its going to be very hard to do this due to the energy situation. Its all or nothing for bonespurs now. The Iranians are successfully trapping him , energy vs. votes.
Hes an ignorant moron, but what else is new
And Lindsay Graham- what a nasty turd he is too
Trump & Don Jr should set up their own insurance underwriting syndicate desk at Lloyd’s with their own money and see how that works out for them.
Trump declared Victory when Oil hit $110.
I support Trump’s Victory in Iran. Time to bring every American Serviceman home from the Middle East FOREVER!
Lay your bets on the word of Trump
got to wonder what epstein and the israel have on graham . operation epstein fury looks to be another distraction that could end up being so much more.
I don’t think so. I mean look what was dumped on this site and not a word. This crap was going to happen even if Kamala was in office.
People are saying US and Israel have world class intelligent agencies, CIA and MOSSAD.
But they don’t have no knowledge / information about Iran’s missile programs, drone programs, Iran’s preparation for long war.
Believe what Iran said – no negotiation and prepare for long war.
Not what clowns are saying.
They are trying to jawbone. The truth is Trump is backing down like he always does when challenged. Donny was once a bully but now has his head so far up Putin’s ass that it will remain there for eternity. Its not a coincidence that Trump talks to Putin to be told what to do. Even the Republican party is owned by Putin. It will all come out eventually but the idiots who voted for Trump deserve every bit of pain possible in their personal lives.
Putin? Did you mean Benjamin Netanyahu?
Depends who he was talking to last
Ryan Grim: (the Gulf States) are expressing a lot of outrage about this. One of the most powerful businessmen in the UAE, who was a former business partner of Trump himself, put out this long statement saying, you know, Mr. President, your excellency who gave you the right to do this, who authorized you to set this region on fire?
They’re, they’re also frustrated by the fact that Israel gets most of the treatment when it comes to missile defense, despite the fact that, you know, (the Gulf states) mostly pay for those.
Q: You said the war is ‘very complete.’ But your defense secretary says ‘this is just the beginning.’ So which is it?
TRUMP: You could say both
Trump and SPR – just another lie:
“In January 2025, the newly elected President Donald Trump declared a “national energy emergency” during his inaugural address. His proposed remedy included a pledge to refill the country’s emergency petroleum reserves.
“We will bring prices down, fill our strategic reserves up again right to the top, and export American energy all over the world,” Trump said.”
1year later it’s still only at ~60% full.
Biden sold it at $90+, Trump had a long time to refill it under $70, would have been a good short sale with an iota of teamwork
Biden got a better deal and actually started re-filling the SPR?
Indeed he did…
Trump is soooooo full of shit!
You have the naivete of the little girls Trump raped if you think this is over
Iran signals Hormuz safe passage to countries expelling U.S. and Israeli diplomats
Saudi’s don’t join b/e they view this as a ‘suck up to Israel’, and not to a regional benefit.
I 100% agree! We’ve sucked up to israel TOO MUCH AND FOR WAY TOO LONG.
“This is not Saudi Arabia’s war. This conflict is largely driven by Israel’s expansionist ambitions, with Israel taking the lead rather than the United States. Attempts to involve Saudi Arabia in a war that does not serve the region risk further destabilizing the Middle East.”
Saudis don’t join because if they do, Iran will set their oil fields on fire with their missiles.
And Saudi knows the US cannot defend them from Iran or Israel.
I suspect the Chinese ambassador is probably busy making deals.
IRGC says Iran, not US, will determine the war’s end
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has issued a direct challenge to the United States regarding the trajectory of the ongoing conflict, asserting that Iran—not Washington—will dictate its conclusion.
Brigadier General Ali Mohammad Naeini, the IRGC spokesperson, has addressed recent claims made by US President Donald Trump, dismissing them as inaccurate attempts to manage domestic and regional pressures.
In a formal statement posted on semi-official news agency Tasnim, Naeini emphasized that the initiative remains firmly with Tehran.
“We are the ones who will determine the end of this war,” Naeini declared, highlighting that the Islamic Republic has maintained control over the regional equations defining the conflict.
He added that the armed forces of the Islamic Republic, in the event of continued aggression by the US military and the Zionist entity against the Iranian people and essential infrastructure, will not permit the export of a single liter of oil from the region to the aggressor and its partners until further notice, emphasizing that their attempts to control oil and gas prices will be temporary and futile.
The IRGC spokesperson has further underscored Iran’s military readiness for a prolonged engagement, noting that its armed forces have not yet deployed their full range of advanced strategic capabilities.
Naeini has cautioned that the United States has relied on miscalculations regarding Iran’s resilience, emphasizing that the country’s defense infrastructure has remained operative despite the ongoing hostilities.

The ships staged in th eGulf of Oman are on the move lead by Comoros flagged Oil products tanker Wayfarer.
A shitload of tankers and cargo ships are right behind it and headed into the straight of Hormuz. .
Uh Oh! The Wayfarer turned around and went back into formation in the Gulf of Oman. I claim a false alarm on myself! Penalty shot!
Thanks for the updates, if you end up being right about this, you will get an apology.

Trump steaks
All sizzle, but impossible to swallow
Before the attack, the Iranians OFFERED to hand over the uranium they had enriched since 2018 when Trumpstein pulled out of the treaty.
Then Trumpstien bombed them, because the 2 guys he sent to negotiate didn’t understand what was being offered.

Jared Kushner is the walking embodiment of Dunning-Kruger.
Strikes me more as the possible Antichrist.
Hmm… need to look up what birthed him.
This was never about getting some deal. Israel just wants to flatten Iran. Witkoff and Kushner were just dragging things out until America could do another sneak attack.
You can look to Gaza to see how Netanyahu see Iran’s future. And Saudi Arabia and Egypt and Lebanon. And Syria…
In other words “Mission Accomplished”? Wasn’t the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln involved in that as well?
It’s the best of times in Huntsville, with absolutely no signs of slowing down. Constant construction has been happening for years.

Middle East War Pushes Gulf Monarchies to Reconsider Trillion-Dollar Investments Several countries in the Persian Gulf are seriously considering declaring force majeure on some of their financial obligations to Western partners and potentially suspending major investment commitments. The discussions reflect growing concerns about the economic consequences of the military operation conducted by the United States and Israel against Iran, according to a report by The Financial Times.
Wait what? No trillion dollar investments with a country that has leaders that say Muslims don’t belong in America?
https://www.newsweek.com/republican-congressman-saying-muslims-dont-belong-in-us-sparks-fury-11647405
How dare they! /s
“Small government” people cheering government telling Americans what they can and cannot believe in.
Historically, the surest way to get more Muslims into western countries (including the U.S.) is to fight wars in their countries. Invade the world, invite the world.
It’s difficult to understand the most recent movements in the stock market and the bets in prediction markets. If Trump‘s inner circle, including his family, doesn’t want to be accused of corrupt insider trading, they better be transparent about their stock trading and prediction markets bets.
Why would they? They are perfectly happy to lie to us about any and everything.
Three fatwas are required for Jihad to be enjoined.
Then the war will be complete.
Fuck around and fatwa.
You said it!
Bombing Trump into submission works every time.
Trump tells CBS News he’s considering taking over Strait of Hormuz
only doable with boots on the ground.
Boots that will be on a wide, flat stretch of ground, with not much left in the way of missile interceptors.
Military leadership should never allow this to happen, but, hey, they went this far on this moronic expedition. I guess they might.
The military leaders who might have opposed have all been fired. What is left in charge is a bunch of “yes man”.
It’s the Strait of America now.
So you start a war without warning anyone, then when things start to go bad you demand help for a war no one wanted but you? You made the bed Lindsey lie down and enjoy.
Bibi to Trump: “You’re done when I f*cking say you’re you’re done, and you’re not done. There are a lot more schools to bomb.”
Killing little girls is another BiBi form of genocide…
Iran:
First condition for cessation Israel disarms no nuclear weapons. UN, Iran, Russia, Chinese, India & other Middle East inspectors.
Second condition $10 Million blood price for families of each child killed at school & another $1 Million for each Iranian citizen collateral damage.
Third Iran damage reparations.
I think they’re probably too pissed off now to even consider that deal. They know they can’t trust Trumpstein, and by extension his successors to make a deal. They need to hurt us bad enough we quit messing with them and go after easer pickings… like Cuba and Greenland.
Trump explained it beautifully today. Iran’s navy sunk. Their planes gone. Missiles and drones running out. No more weapons for the Islamists. We are systematically disarming them FOREVER. Our laser interceptors are on the way. The shipping channel WILL be open soon. We OWN those waters now. Islamist can go back to their prime spiritual directive of endless primitive war amongst themselves, but they will NEVER be permitted to have power in OUR world. They are kaput.
Forgot the /sarc (I hope).
Cool story, bro.
Their navy was never really the issue and their planes were old probably parked in underground hangars. Saw a pretty cool blowup decoy video of missile launchers, fighter jets & tanks using for removing surgical strike capability on worthless targets. USA & Israel are not acting like they have control of Iran’s air space. Their military strength demonstrated day after day is drones & missiles operated by autonomous units which have blinded surrounding radar. China & Russia are supportive allies. Doubtful the Strait of Hormuz will be open soon majority of oil & other tankers possess few anti drone defenses. Just have to target the desalinization plants in majority of countries (5 in Israel produce 80% of their water).
How bout that enriched uranium, I thought they were like imminently ready to nuke us?
If we own the straight why are no ships sailing it?
Hard to keep all the bullshit straight
Trump admonished the shipping firms to “show some guts” and make the run through the straits.
Didn’t we systematically disarm them FOREVER, last June, at our Israeli masters demand? Do you remember how Hogsbreath said that anyone saying we didn’t destroy their nuclear capability was lying or fake news?
Great, now we’ve allegedly destroyed their third or fourth rate Navy. Fantastic. Color me unimpressed, even if it’s true. Same with their 50 year old Air Force.
And yay our under capable, not ready for prime-time laser defense systems are ‘on their way’. So if they are the Wunderwaffe that you seem to imply, then why are we just getting around to deploying them now? I thought the Iranian missile threat is kaput.
The shipping channel will be open ‘soon’… when is that pray tell? Trump says it will be so, so it can’t be wrong, right?
Trump’s will be done, Trump’s will be done, Trump’s will be done.
On Earth, as it is in… Trump’s head.
Hey “Steve” you’re not fooling anyone, we know it’s you Jojo, your modus operandi is an easy tell. Just be yourself man.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Except I don’t think Jojo has the self-awareness to realize how ridiculous people find his comments.
We even bombed the PICTURES of their planes! That’s thoroughness.
And somehow, they have hypersonic missles, which the US military industrial complex can’t quite figure out. See also, Russia, China
The fact that the Saudis are not participating or engaging with all of the military hardware they were forced to purchase is a big tell.
The US is abandoning its embassy there and that is downright frightening for the US.
Lindsay Graham should shut the fuck up! If he pisses off the Saudis, it is all over for US interests in the region.
Trump and Graham are such vacuous gas bags…
Could come in handy with gas supplies getting tight.
No, they are just holding out for a bigger bribe from Saudi
This is the end of the American empire. The military industrial complex has skimmed trillions of dollars from you and me on systems that didn’t work as promised – all to project US strength. Trump has exposed us as a paper tiger to the entire planet. We couldn’t protect any of our allies in the ME when it came down to it, except for Israel, and we’ve done a poor job of that too.
We are at the beginning of this conflict, regardless of what Trump says. He’s got the attention span of a common fly, and is about as smart. To neutralize the threat of iran, there must be an occupying force and war inside Iran to root out the religious leaders who have destroyed the country. Without that, they will rebuild their rocket program, navy and air force. The entire world has had enough of the Mullahs running that country. You can’t destroy an Islamic idea, but you can outlaw it, just as we neutralized ideology in Germany and Japan. That’s what needs to happen and the Gulf states can mount the invasion to remove the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, and disarm the country. It’ll take years of civil war to do it. The Mullahs won’t go quietly. It will take force. I doubt that Trump will take the political risks to invade but that’s what needs to happen.
“and is about as smart.”.
Please offer any evidence (facts) supporting this me lofty assessment.
For me, in this comparison, flies are brilliant and clearly the smarter entity. For one, they cause almost no harm to any other creature, for another the flies live in harmony with the world around them.
The buzzing little bastards do NOT live in harmony with me.
OK, you go first. Grab a gun and get over there.
He follows the Marlin Perkins strategy: “While Jim captures this msn-eating tiger, I will have the jeep ready to go”.
You and Trump have a lot in common based on your nonsensical ramblings.
It’s trumpstienBot, from ChatGPT.
You mean like we did in Afghanistan with 20 years of democracy building. Only to see it folded in 2-3 weeks when US withdrew and Taliban took it over without any fight.
Do you want another 20 years of democracy building. Might be too short given example above.
I personally blame American education here. It dumbs people down a lot and they you have this problem with critical thinking or problem solving and everybody lives in fantasy land.
Next you have con men like Trump offering simplistic view which would normally not stick anywhere else.
Well said
The education system fell apart when teachers lost the ability to coerce kids to learn. We’re all lazy bastards, and school isn’t fun. If I hadn’t had fear of repercussions, I wouldn’t have learned a damn thing in school either.
Parents don’t enforce any repercussions either, and end up with a permanent basement resident that hates women because they aren’t attracted to his obese, unwashed person.
Fortunately for those guys, now there’s ICE, with a nice signing bonus.
But that was Biden’s fault. For some reason. And I am NOT a fan of Biden.
It’s a brilliant plan. All we have to do is militarily defeat Shia Islam. And Islam in general. I don’t know why nobody thought of that before.
To defeat defeat Shia Islam and Islam in general as he suggests is super easy, barely an inconvenience. It is just that no one has been smart enough to figure out that this is the brilliant solution that will solve all problems.
Same guy that had the grand idea to go to war with drugs.
Who had the drug-fighting strategy with the motto “Meth. We’re on it.”?
Yeah the whole world is beating down the door to take on the mullahs /sarc
Giant waste of money and lives
Stop insulting common flies by comparing them to Trump, they don’t deserve that.
Iiiiiiiits TACO TIME again? Will it fall on TACO Tuesday? Place your bets at your favorite predictive market.
It’s time for all these Islamic kingdoms to go to secular states. Islam by it’s nature, teachings and holy books is a religion of war, violence and murder. Read the texts or their writings and you will understand why this region has been so violent for over a thousand years.
Meanwhile, christofascists are in charge of the United States.
We would also benefit greatly from a secular government.
Read this while you’re at it.

Ignorance and bigotry can be cured with artificial intelligence:
In terms of raw mentions of killing, destruction, and violence, some software-based analyses have found that the Bible—specifically the Old Testament—contains a higher frequency of violent content than the Quran.
Are you ready to condemn the Torah as the worst by 2x, followed by the New Testament? I’m here to help. You’re welcome!
Unlike christianity of course. No religious violence whatsoever over the last 1000 years. No systemic child sexual abuse either by the Church. Oh, wait….
I don’t think ole Jeff is “christian” based on the name. Nor muslim. Any other religions that come to mind???
Red Sea pedestrian?
*Chuckles in Christian nationalist*
This just feels like another ill-advised crusade to me
Maybe we can have a draft and send our kids, like a modern children’s crusade
For Jesus, or something
They’re trying to force Jesus to come back before he’s ready.
Remember those t-shirts that said: “Jesus is coming, and man is he pissed!”
Israel first.
So Trump wants to go home.
Has he checked with the “Zionist entity”?
Lol
That’s right, everyone knows you can’t leave the job unless you get the boss’s permission
He’ll just have to wait until the jewish carpenter returns and gives him the rest of the millennium off. I think he’s expected shortly.
I hope the Islamic State of Iran is completely disarmed, but Trump is a serious idiot who can’t shut his mouth, which makes him sound as dumb as he is. That being said, this war against the Mullahs needed to happen because they’re more of a rogue state than N. Korea; Iran threatens their Arab neighbors, and provokes violence in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Lebanon, Syria, Israel, you name it. There needs to be an invasion to remove the Islamic state’s insane Muslim leadership because they’ve wrecked their own country and damaged many other countries, so be it. Their attack on Gulf states is an obvious example of how dangerous they are, so those states should invade and occupy Iran, control it through martial law until it’s stable with a non-religious government…preferably some kind of republic that’s peaceful. Iran needs to be completely disarmed as we did with Germany and Japan. The UN has no business there, mostly because it’s a useless organization that just stands around while waring factions fire on each other.
Agreed! Iran should let the US remove their democratically elected leaders (’53), fund and arm an invading force (1980’s), and let their neighbors be used as staging grounds by distant (US) powers to attack it without fighting back. They should just take it because we are the good guys spreading democracy and cheeseburgers and they are evil barbarians.
you should gather an army and lead the invasion. I’ll even buy you an M-16, don’t worry it’s on me.
Now I’m convinced you’re jewish.
Who’s to say the Iranians want this to end. Looks like they are all in. We have been causing them problems for the last 40-50 years
73 years
This talk from Trump is expected.
The global economy will collapse without the oil and LNG that are normally shipped through the strait of Hormuz. And the price of oil will keep rising, unless something calms the waters. Trump is trying to give hope that the war will soon be over, the oil will soon flow again, and that prices can come back down as a result.
And it worked; today. The oil price had risen sharply overnight, and has now come back down, thanks to Trump’s words of optimism.
He might be able to manipulate the price for a day or two, but if his words don’t match what we see happening in the strait and in the war, the price will go back up, because the physical shortage will grow.
Well the other thing is that the cost structure has already changed. Insurance companies will want higher premiums, ship operators want higher rates, crews will want hazard pay, etc. All of this will result in inflation even if we woke up tomorrow to a peaceful middle east (which is a stretch).
Meanwhile, Asian economies are slowing energy starving to death. Then you’ll have the fallout from that too.
Where will we import our wide screen tvs from?
the horrors!
And what has been taken off line will not return quickly it takes time to restart once wells are shut down. That doesn’t account for damage
“He might be able to manipulate the price for a day or two”
And perhaps that is the only intent. Enable some inside trading by favored associates.
The piece of shit’s goal is to exceed Musk’s wealth by 2029.
So the US kills this guys father and wife in the same strike and trump declares it’s over. Good luck with that
Mission Accomplished ™
It would be great if he declares victory and pulls out, but more likely he will double down and invade
too bad donald’s father didn’t pull out early 80 years ago.
Just looking at the guy, you know they had the “Son, there is no way, NO WAY, that you could have come from my loins. When I get home, I’m gonna punch your mama in the mouth!” discussion.
The visual that stimulated in my mind’s eye was beautiful. Pretty sure ole drumpf senior carried through on his threat as well.
Here’s the source… didn’t quite get the quote right:
no way loins smokeyand the bandit
I would love to see that butterball crammed into a flight suit.
He has 50+ days remaining so he might change his mind tomorrow.
Well, it’s just one day before TACO Tuesday!
Only he did the same last year and here we are. If I were Iran, I’d continue to pulverize all the Usonian assets in the area, including the Zionist state.
Trump wants to declare victory and go home. The US and Israel are out of interceptors and are unable to defend against Iranian missiles.
Iran would be insane to accept a ceasefire at this point. The US is apparently on the ropes. Iran should insist that it will not accept a ceasefire, and will keep the Hormuz blockade intact until all US military assets are out of the Middle East, and all sanctions are dropped. In no uncertain terms it should dictate that should the US return, the blockade will be re-instated, and the war would resume.
If the US balks at these conditions Iran should continue sporadic missile strikes on Israeli and US targets until Trump capitulates and slinks away.
It would be foolish to trust Trump. He needs to be slapped down or he will return after he is able to rearm.
Stocks up, oil down,
show me a naysayer,
and you be a clown!
Methinks you be a bot
They lights are on but there’s no one home. 🙂
Pam Bondi – market strategist!
Let’s hope Trump is right. He has a record of getting things right in the end. My worry is about what happens when he has to retire. Usually when a competent man retires, the fools take over again. We can’t afford that now, with the dollar and debt the way they are, and China still building its strength.
Are you implying that Joe Biden was competent and that Trump is a fool?
Just seeking clarity
Have you considered standup comedy?
For a stand in for Baghdad Bob.
Sorry that role is already taken .. in Ukraine.
I assume you meant this to be sarcastic?
I thought he’s running for a third term. Miriam’s going to put up the funds.
In a worst case senario, J.D. Vance, he wears eye liner and looks as soft as a grape…
Lindsey Graham needs to be para-dropped into Tehran with an attached gift card. Maybe this could get the Iranians to the table.
I hope the gift card is for a random Western strip club. That will get him extra special treatment.
Has anyone told Iran that the war is mostly over? Anyone in Trump’s inner circle and administration, including family, friends, etc., Should be barred from trading the market during this period of self induced volatility. This is the type of market where the big money is made and those with inside information make the most.
If you need any guidelines from recent history then the Ukraine war was going to be over within 24 hours, remember? My only question is whether “pretty much over” is less than 24 hours or more…
Iran cannot even officially surrender now because Trump says he needs to approve of any new Irainian leader first? Is the Donald still fully with us or is he just full of sheet again?
Wouldn’t there have to be a war before they could surrender? /s
Trump’s an idiot; only an idiot would have been reckless enough to embark on this war, but that being said, it wasn’t a completely insane idea because Iran is a rogue state that makes a lot more trouble than N. Korea. Now that they’re weakened, an invasion force must go in and remove the revolutionary guard who will surely kill thousands more of their own people and create havoc for the rest of the world. The Revolutionary guard are Islamic Nazis that must be removed, and it will take force and a lot of fighting. They are a death cult….that is the nature of modern Islam….it’s written in their holy books….Read them.
“Islamic Nazis That Must Be Removed” – Instead of the ‘Epstein’ Nazi’s That Must Be Removed.!
How did 6 million pages of the file fit on Pam Bondi’s desk? Especially since it was all a democrat hoax.
“Makes a lot more trouble”. Yeah, you can’t be stirring the pot by opposing Israel’s takeover of Gaza and it’s neighbors. Sheesh.
Easy. The A/C in the Tel Aviv op center is out because of an Iranian missile attack and it’s a very stressful situation.
Trumpstien wants them to overthrow their oppressive government and then submit to rule by him. I don’t think there are any Iranians that will stand for that.
Come to think of it, American shouldn’t stand for that.
Was there ever a person in such a position of authority whose words were more meaningless and untrustworthy?
Not in our lifetimes……………
Zelensky, but he can also play a piano with his penis so he at least has some talent.
I would love to hear his rendition of Beethovens ‘moonlight sonata’
Kamala Harris. That’s why I voted Green.
Feels like this is the type of statement that someone would make to manipulate the price of oil/futures. Then again, the entire series of events that preceded this statement could be viewed the same way.
That is exactly what it is. The statement Trump made has such a broad meaning that the war could go in any direction and he’d essentially be right. “The war ‘could’ be over ‘soon.’” “Could” and “soon” have lots of meanings.
So when will the market stop pretending to believe that this is real and go back to actual bona fide price discovery?
I guess we’ll see what happens tonight and tomorrow.
