Does the NFL love the Rams or hate them? It’s a facetious question, of course. But after getting a look at the Rams’ 2026 schedule, it’s fair to at least wonder.

Watch: Trump Spars With 'Treasonous' NYT Reporter On Iran War Coverage

Friday saw a wild exchange play out between President Trump and a member of the media aboard Air Force One as it made its way back from China.

The New York Times' David Sanger pointed out that Trump's Operation Epic Fury did not result in political transition in Iran, but that the same Islamic Republic theocratic government is in charge. Sanger in essence questioned whether there was actually 'total victory' as Trump and his officials have repeatedly claimed. A visibly angered Trump, standing physically close to Sanger, rebuked this line of questioning as "treasonous" coverage of the "victory" accomplished by the United States. Watch the tense scene play out:

Trump to NYT's David Sanger: "I had a total military victory. But the fake news, guys like you, write incorrectly. You're a fake guy. We had a total military victory. I actually think it's sort of treasonous what you write. You should be ashamed of yourself. I actually think it's… pic.twitter.com/QK421YHKtq

"I had a total military victory. But the fake news, guys like you, write incorrectly. You're a fake guy. We had a total military victory. I actually think it's sort of treasonous what you write. You should be ashamed of yourself. I actually think it's treason."

As if to emphasize the charge, Trump peppered his comments by using 'treason' or 'treasonous' several times throughout his response, singling out both the NY Times and CNN in particular. 

"I actually think it’s sort of treasonous what you write," the president reiterated while lambasting Sanger, describing the Times and CNN "the worst."

Trump likely has in mind some of Sanger's earlier articles as well, given he reported earlier this month that while the Iranian ayatollah was "clearly gone" - it remains that the Islamic Republic's nuclear stockpile has remained untouched, even if likely buried underground at destroyed nuclear sites. Also there's still open questions surrounding Iran's missile and drone arsenal, and its ability to reequip during the ongoing fragile ceasefire.

The US President has also in a separate Fox News interview asserted he didn't underestimate anything when it came to the Iran situation, and closure of the Strait of Hormuz:

🚨 NEW: Fox's @BretBaier asks President Trump if he underestimated Iran's pain tolerance: “Why are we where we are?”

TRUMP: I didn’t underestimate anything. We hit them unbelievably hard. Look, we left their bridges. We left their electricity capacity. We can knock that all out… pic.twitter.com/AvXO9akZeZ

And yet, a prime stated goal of the current 'Project Freedom' is to open the Hormuz Strait back up, or in other words the military mission has become to merely return the strait to its pre-war status. 

Here's Secretary of State Rubio just days ago: "It’s for the Strait to be open, back to the way it was. It’s for anyone to use it, no mines in the water, nobody paying tolls. That’s what we have to get back to and that’s the goal here." Or again: The goal of the war in Iran is now to return it to how it was before Trump started the war. It seems that Trump considers that pointing out inconvenient facts of the Iran war (or what his own top officials have said) to be 'treason'.

BWXT Holds A Realistic Path To Expanding Nuclear Capacity

Ananym Capital is urging BWXT to commercialize its reactor production capabilities. The investor is looking for BWXT to bring back one of their old small modular reactor (SMR) design, mPower, that was abandoned in 2017. 

BWXT already produces one to three reactors each year for U.S. aircraft carriers and submarines. That steady cadence gives it unmatched experience turning complex nuclear hardware into delivered hardware on a predictable basis. 

With only a handful of AP1000 units built worldwide, no other American players can claim comparable low technology risk when it comes to actual reactor production. 

This stands in contrast to the wave of microreactor developers pitching novel concepts. Many remain years from full-scale deployment, still navigating licensing for core designs and advanced materials with minimum operating history. 

BWXT does not need to invent a new reactor architecture to matter. It can adapt existing pressurized water technology it has built and serviced for decades, then apply it where demand is clearest: data centers and industrial users seeking reliable, always-on power.

Ananym is pushing the revival of an old SMR design BWXT was working on with Bechtel in the early 2000s. The project was closed down after the program struggled to bring off-takers on board. 

While the idea makes sense with BWXT being one of the more experienced reactor developers in the world, it would be a far less complicated effort to simply do more of what they're already good at. 

Instead of having to design a new reactor that has not seen operations yet, the company could instead increase the production rate of their naval reactor line for use in other government applications or in the commercial industry. 

The concept is not without its headaches, as we discussed previously with a similar idea from HGP Intelligent Energy. The reactors will likely require some amount of redesign to work at lower uranium enrichment levels. 

Whether BWXT decides to revive the shelved SMR project or simply do more of what they already are good at, the general idea just makes too much sense: stop trying to reinvent the [nuclear] wheel.

True reform would require a fundamental reimagining of the state's relationship with its taxpayers, and a serious commitment to spending restraint.

“We're going to see an evolution [of Beth Dutton] from the version that we were so familiar with in ‘Yellowstone’ to something that is perhaps a little bit more mature," she said. "Perhaps a little more dangerous. It’s a natural progression.”
