That’ll show ‘em! I’m sure they’ll re-open the strait of Hormuz any day now…

And once they’re there, declare victory and pull out, leaving the Europeans and Asians to solve the mess he created.

Correction: not help to reopen the strait of Hormuz, but help in taking out Iranian positions along the shore, clearing mines and countering incoming drones and missiles. In other words, to join in the war against Iran.

Does anyone seriously believe a word coming out of the White House anymore?

Unbelievable…Trump’s would rather save his ego than let Ukraine help save American lives.

My brother in-law actually has a diagnosed personality disorder and the way Trump behaves, especially while under duress, is identical to how my brother in-law would react.

If Trump indeed suffers from a personality disorder, which I am convinced is the case, then he is literally incapable of backing down.

This is an absolute nightmare scenario for the US. Trump won’t stop until he is forced to stop. We will see Trump make even more crucial mistakes and see him try and escalate this as far as he possible can.

Conspiracy theory? It’s not, it’s absolutely true. But they left out the bit about the quasi-alliance between big tech and right-wing extremists.

Tech bro’s want to keep their revenue streams, techno-fascists want to remove privacy barriers that stop them from training AI with your personal data and actual fascists want to crack down on public speech and dissidents.

The political right in both the US and EU are continuously working to remove privacy and surveillance restrictions under the auspices of free markets and innovation.

This is the same country that was seriously planning to invade and annex Greenland just three months ago. They might have postponed their plans in favor of bombing Iran, but Greenland is still on the table.

So Europe may suffer the economic consequences of this mess, but the White House getting humiliated and the US military getting degraded and bogged down in Iran are both a boon for Europe.

My only fear that some European leaders (looking at you Starmer) might actually be stupid enough to follow them in this folly out of some misplaced sense of appeasement.

They are also sounding the alarm bells for bananas, arabica beans, soy beans and corn…

That would be seriously lazy intelligence though…

No parents, students or teachers in Minab ever posted a picture or video of the school since 2015?

Aw, all those hard earned American tax dollars…

But lets also appreciate the fact that, after all the sh*t they've been through, millions of Iranians are now on the run for American bombs, at least as many have been impoverished and several thousands of people are either dead or mourning their loved ones.

On top of that, people all around the globe are now seeing their livelihoods threatened because of ridiculous fuel prices and trade disruptions, while Americans themselves couldn’t give two sh*ts about the suffering they’ve caused

So get f%*#ed, America…

“One German brand, the Nestlé-owned Choco Crossies, recently announced it was eliminating cocoa altogether from its new Snack Vibes line, replacing it with ChoViva, a lab-grown chocolate alternative made from fermented sunflower and grape seeds.”

How the fudge did we end up in this dystopian nightmare? ಥ_ಥ
