"Targets included missile launch sites and Iranian boats attempting to emplace mines. U.S. Central Command continues to defend our forces while using restraint during the ongoing ceasefire."

The strikes come just hours after Trump said negotiations with Iran were "proceeding nicely."

How do ceasefires work.

Had to wait for the stock/betting markets to adjust again is all.

The thing that amazes me is that media even bothers to report what Trump says about anything. The chances he's lying is only exceeded by the chance that he has absolutely no fucking clue what he's talking about.

This is it, the reckoning we have all suspected was on the way. The inevitable backlash of all America’s sins consolidated under one presidency. One violent, insular ignoramus to rule them all. A completely dysfunctional government laid bare for all to see. Decades of “full spectrum dominance” brought to its inevitable end. No nation has ever existed solely by the power of it’s military dominance. Every nation that has attempted to do so has fallen.

Great Depression later this year.

Anyone who thinks President JD Vance is going to end the the war is going to get rug pulled harder than folks holding the HawkTuhaCoin bags.

I mean he isn't bombing anything. His idiot fanclub is.

jesus fuck what an incompetent malignant freak

[-] Furbag@pawb.social 26 points 1 day ago

Every week is like groundhog day. Trump declares victory, claims that peace talks are underway, and then they drop more bombs, without any deal being reached.

It amazes me that there are still people gullible enough to believe that this isn't another forever war for us and that gas isn't going back down any time soon.

[-] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

It's only a forever war is we don't remove the motherfuckers who refuse to stop him.

November may be our last chance. I know not everyone here loves the Dems, but they really are our only hope at this point, and we need to support them in the general election.

[-] TrippingBalls@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

It dropped 5% for the holiday weekend. Never seen that happen before. The art of the deal

There's a sucker born every minute and 30+% of the population still think he's a good president

The man has had a stroke, his face sags on one side unmistakably. Maybe it's time to stop pretending that everything is okay? Swear Vance in and be done with the charade. It's humiliating

Maybe we can take a break from 80-year-olds for a time. Is that communism?

[-] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

And this moron was just bragging about how they reached an agreement with Iran to dispose of their uranium in the deal and this master negotiator just literally blew it up.

Moron and the morons that voted for the moron...

[-] MisterD@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

I bet moron is killing it in the stock manipulation

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

Did the Pumpkinhead even have any deal?

[-] droniecarp@lemmy.zip 58 points 1 day ago

What's most fucked up about this is it is strictly 100% about manipulating the markets and making money, that's it.

[-] BrianTheeBiscuiteer@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

And that it happens every fucking Tuesday.

I'm seeing in the billionaire-owned media that they were "self-defense" strikes. SMH.

His friends must've finished selling off their oil stocks.

[-] fodor@lemmy.zip 22 points 1 day ago

Any media that's pretending to be honest needs to, if they're going to quote Trump, either precede or proceed the quote with a disclaimer that he lies about everything. That's basic integrity. Otherwise, you're becoming the media that's complicit.

Always happens when the market’s closed. Drag up the war then say it’ll end by the end of the week. Hope no one notices the Epstein files. Repeat.

Expecting any other behavior at this point is light-years beyond foolish. The word of the president has been proven useless time and time again. He has made it now impossible to deal with the US, as any deals are subject to be altered at his petty whims. We saw this with the tariffs and we will continue to see it.

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 68 points 2 days ago

Friday: Trump close to a deal with Iran

Monday: Trump doubles down on attack of Iran

Rinse and repeat.....

Your missing the Trump and pals buy/sell shares steps

[-] Juan_de_Silentio@lemmy.world 43 points 2 days ago

I don't get how some people can't see that this has been a huge get-rich scam for Trump and his cronies literally the entire time. It's absurdely blatant.
