BREAKING: 🇺🇸🇮🇷 Clashes between Basijis (Iranian paramilitary & armed civilians) and U.S. special forces in Kohgiluyeh-Boyer Ahmad Province

@BabakTaghvaee1 Why does this sound manufactured ? Creating the hero story?

BREAKING: Major clashes between US Army Special Forces and IRGC Ground Forces are reported in the Milas mount of the Rig Mountains in Charmahal and Bakhtiari Province, Iran. USAF CSAR teams have located the second crew member of the downed F-15E of the 494th FS and are attempting to rescue him. Their aircraft and helicopters are under small and heavy arms fire from the IRGC, Basij militants, as well as nomad fighters. A-10Cs and F-35As of the USAF, together with at least one HC-130J and two HH-60Ws, are present at the site. #OperationEpicFury #OperationLionsRoar

@aintscarylarry General Johnny Walker Black reporting for duty

BREAKING: Pete Hegseth appoints his longtime advisors Jack Daniels and Captain Morgan as his top two generals.

@Megatron_ron wtf, this is terrorism not war

JUST IN: 🇮🇱🇮🇷 Netanyahu on Iran: “After we destroyed 70% of their steel production capacity, today we attacked their petrochemical plants. We will continue to crush them.”

@GoldForecast Is this a paid tweet?

In the last 10 years there were only 3 no brainer bottoms in gold. These are points of low open interest where everyone has been flushed out of the market, low gold volatility. The commercials have covered their shorts and the gold market is ready to soar. This is funny, because gold is looking like a top, but it's actually an ultimate bottom.

@scotchypoli @GuntherEagleman Eagleman does not represent US. He is an Israeli plant provocateur

@GuntherEagleman If I remember correctly it was YOUR president that came to our prime minister and other NATO allies and asked them for help. They told him to fuck off. You look silly.

No one cares. Literally, no one.

@Doranimated lol she is an influencer thot. Who cares

Meet the niece of deceased Quds Force commander Qassem Soleimani—and learn something about a regime that lives in two worlds at once. Marco Rubio has (yes!) terminated the legal permanent resident status of Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter. Her husband has also been barred from entering the United States. Soleimani Afshar was an outspoken supporter of the Iranian regime while living in the United States—leading a lifestyle that, in Iran, can get a woman jailed. Her posts praised attacks on American forces, endorsed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and repeated regime slogans, including denunciations of the United States as the “Great Satan.” She also publicly supported Iran’s new Supreme Leader. At the same time, she documented a comfortable lifestyle in Los Angeles on her now-deleted Instagram account.

@DineshDSouza @marcorubio You guys are retards

.@marcorubio : “If you invite me into your home for dinner, and I go to your house and I start putting mud on your couch and spray-painting your kitchen, you’re going to kick me out. We’re going to do the same thing if you come into the U.S as a visitor.”

@MarkDeReborn11 You forgot Netanyahu son living in Miami

La familia del Ayatola viviendo en USA, las hijas de Putín viviendo en Europa, los hijos de Castro viviendo en Florida, los hijos de López Obrador viviendo en Houston, la hija de Hugo Chávez viviendo en NY. Caray, por lo visto la única familia congruente es la gordo de Corea.

@rexthundercock Can you rewrite this, doesn’t make sense (Twitter cannot convey sarcasm)

No, bro, you don't understand. If the US loses one single plane, they are LOSING. If Iran is bombed 24/7 with no airspace control and their entire leadership is dead and their remaining singular spokesperson is issuing empty threats from a bunker they are WINNING.

@maggiewise111 So you support US killing school Children. Let me guess, you aren’t Muslim

HEARTBREAKING 💔 Message From Iran: "I am an Iranian who lives in Tehran … and I can hear the sound of bombing outside. In case I'm dead tomorrow, I just want you to remember this. Please. Shut the f*ck up and don't use me against America or Israel to try and convince them to stop. We asked for this...

@JamesSurowiecki lol, only if Trump didn’t have a major character flaw. His father ended up in a straight jacket in the loony bin, and his mother was a cruel witch that would call him loser.

Isn't the obvious deal that we agree to stop bombing, Iran agrees to open the Strait and stop tolling, and we call it even and everyone goes home?

@WarlordDilley You are just crying because Iran makes better memes jerkoff

Am I the only one who hopes Iran doesn't make a deal in the next 48hrs? They don't deserve mercy. Turn it to glass.

@EricLDaugh Loses 5 aircafts in a day. Deports a woman. The trained seals 🦭 clap 👏

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Sec. Marco Rubio just CANCELED the legal status of slain Iranian Major General Qasem Soleimani's family members living in the US They're now in ICE custody, pending DEPORTATION. 🔥 Long overdue, thank you Marco! 🇺🇸 RUBIO: "Until recently, Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter were green card holders living in lavishly in the United States. Afshar is the niece of deceased Iranian Major General Qasem Soleimani. She is also an outspoken supporter of the Iranian regime who celebrated attacks on Americans and referred to our country as the "Great Satan." This week, I terminated both Afshar and her daughter's legal status and they are now in ICE custody, pending removal from the United States. The Trump Administration will not allow our country to become a home for foreign nationals who support anti-American terrorist regimes." 🔥

@Milajoy Trump is the antichrist

I never thought we’d see Jesus in Time Square. Time ARE changing for the better. All we needed was a new President.

@BullTheoryio You’re an idiot

TRUMP DIDN'T START THE IRAN WAR TO DESTROY IRAN. HE STARTED IT TO SAVE THE U.S. DOLLAR. Before the first bomb dropped, the petrodollar was visibly falling apart, Fast. Saudi Arabia publicly said for the first time since 1974 that it was open to settling oil in other currencies. Then the actions followed. China and Saudi Arabia signed a 50 billion yuan currency swap. Saudi Arabia joined mBridge, the system built explicitly to bypass SWIFT and the dollar. The original 1974 petrodollar agreement was allowed to expire without renewal. India was buying Russian oil settled in rupees and yuan. One fifth of all global oil trade was already settling outside the dollar by 2023. The dollar's share of global reserves had fallen to a 30 year low. The petrodollar was dying already. To understand why this matters you need to understand what the petrodollar actually is. It is a protection deal. In 1974, Kissinger flew to Riyadh and made a secret agreement with King Faisal. Saudi Arabia prices oil in dollars and recycles profits into US Treasuries. In return, America guarantees Saudi security. Weapons, troops, and the promise that US military keeps the shipping lanes open. Every OPEC member followed within a year. The arrangement gave Washington something extraordinary. A permanent buyer for its debt. The ability to borrow cheaply and run deficits indefinitely while maintaining the world's reserve currency. For fifty years Gulf states believed this was a partnership. It was not. It was leverage. And when Gulf states started building their own exits, that leverage had to be demonstrated again. On February 28, 2026, the demonstration began. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz. Kuwait has no bypass pipeline. Qatar sends 93% of its LNG through it. Saudi Arabia exports 5.5 million barrels per day through it. Multiple Gulf energy companies declared force majeure simultaneously for the first time in history. Oil hit $120. R Refineries were shut. The IEA called it the largest energy supply disruption in history. And the same Gulf states that had been quietly building yuan settlement systems and joining Chinese financial infrastructure found themselves with their entire economic survival at stake and only one country capable of doing anything about it. They went back to Washington and asked for help. Saudi Arabia reversed its refusal to grant the US military base access. The UAE declared willingness to join a US coalition. The GCC went to the UN and called for US-backed force to reopen the strait. Countries that had been distancing themselves from American dependence for two years were suddenly asking America to come back and protect them. That is not a coincidence, That is the leverage being applied. Now look at what happened to the dollar while all of this was happening. DXY surged to a 10 month high. Gold collapsed 13 to 20%, its worst month since 2013. Investors sold alternative stores of value and bought dollars. Every barrel of emergency oil released by the IEA was priced and settled in dollars. SWIFT data showed the dollar's share of global transactions at its highest level in years. And Gulf states who had been accumulating yuan and building alternative payment systems ended up spending their crisis buying American weapons instead. A $16.5 billion emergency arms package was approved during the war. The petrodollar recycling mechanism, dollars earned from oil flowing back into American defense industry, ran perfectly. Now look at what Trump had been saying for years before the war. He threatened BRICS nations with 100% tariffs if they backed any alternative to the dollar. He said directly that losing the world's reserve currency would be "like losing a war." His National Security Strategy, published one month before the bombs fell, explicitly named preventing any power from controlling Middle Eastern oil chokepoints as a core US interest. After the war started he posted publicly: "With a little more time, we can easily OPEN THE HORMUZ STRAIT, TAKE THE OIL, and MAKE A FORTUNE." This is the part that should make every Gulf state rethink everything. The system was sold to them as a partnership. America protects you. You price oil in dollars. Mutual benefit. But when Gulf states started building exits, a war appeared that destroyed their ability to use those exits and forced them back into dependence. Gulf states spent two years building non dollar infrastructure. Then a crisis arrived that made all of it irrelevant overnight and left them with no option except to ask Washington for protection. The dollar surged. American weapons factories got new orders. And the countries trying to escape the system found themselves locked back inside it. That is a reset. And the people who paid for it are the same ones who always pay, The Gulf. The petrodollar was never a partnership. It was always a system designed to make American power self financing. The Iran war did not threaten that system. It renewed it.

@SenTomCotton @SecRubio So then you should leave too. You and Rubio support terrorism.

Terrorist-supporting foreign nationals don’t belong in our country. I applaud @SecRubio and the Trump administration for taking decisive action.

@grok @Lisatweets444 @masuzafi @MelisaGillett Still classic

@Lisatweets444 @masuzafi @MelisaGillett This clip is from the White House Easter Egg Roll on April 21, 2025—not today. Pete Hegseth was responding to media reports about a Signal chat scandal involving sensitive info, not anything about Iran. The original post is misrepresenting old footage as current.

Looks like Iran just successfully triggered Pete Hegseth into a full public meltdown right in front of his own kids. The same tough guy who smugly tells his 13-year-old son that American troops "died for you" so we don’t have to deal with nuclear Iran… now breaking down like a fragile snowflake when the real consequences stare him in the face. Pathetic. This WAR is far too sophisticated for narrow-minded, chest-thumping amateurs playing war hero with other people’s blood and their own children’s future. You don’t get to cosplay tough on TV then cry when the board gets complex. The adults in the room are watching this clown show with disgust. History won’t be kind to warmongering lightweights.

@masuzafi Dude can’t even shave his side burns. What a loser. Feel sorry for his children.

@Harrisbro777 Killing civilians to free them. Brilliant!! Sounds like Hannibal Protocal

WHAT HAPPENS THE NIGHT HE PULLS THE TRIGGER Day one. Power grid gone. 90 million Iranians in darkness. No water pumps. No hospitals. No food storage. Day two. Kharg Island burns. That's 90% of Iran's oil exports. TWO MILLION barrels per day vanish from world markets. Oil hits $150. Then $200. Every $10 rise in oil costs the global economy $250 billion. Your gas hits $6. Maybe $8. Your groceries cost more. Your heating bill explodes. Iran retaliates. US bases across the region get hit. 40,000 troops. Houthis shut down the Red Sea. Global shipping collapses. Saudi oil fields get targeted. AGAIN. Like Abqaiq in 2019. Gulf desalination plants go dark. UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain. 50 MILLION people without water. You are not watching a foreign policy dispute. You are watching the supply chain that runs your life get destroyed. And you are scrolling past it. 🔴
