It is crazy how few people know this: Russia now occupies less Ukrainian land than it did one month into the full-scale invasion four years ago

Schrödinger’s American Theory Of Alliance - Everything bad an ally does or every way an ally comes up short (according to the US) is 100% their fault because they’re a sovereign country - Allys should always 100% do everything the US wants and never disagree because they wouldn’t exist without the US

Revealing of the level of narcissistic injury, here that he will punish the innocent to soothe his humiliation over people not joining a war he started

J.D. Vance in April 2025: “I think a lot of European nations were right about our invasion of Iraq. Frankly, if the Europeans had been a little more independent, and a little more willing to stand up, then maybe we could have saved the entire world from the strategic disaster that was the American-led invasion of Iraq…I don’t want the Europeans to just do whatever the Americans tell them to do. I don’t think it’s in their interest, and I don’t think it’s in our interests, either.” unherd.com/2025/04/transc…

He's refering to American made weapons bought with European funds. This is why the US admin don't want Europeans to have their own weapons manufacturing, so they can blackmail us when they have something they need.

@AP ...aaaand he got bored and left.

@AP 100% probability he doesn't realise there aren't any TV cameras in the Supreme Court and wouldn't have gone if he had known.

Trump has arrived at the Supreme Court to sit in on birthright citizenship arguments, the first such appearance by a president. Follow live updates. apnews.com/live/supreme-c…

@jxpric3 @AP He just left 😅

@danbrusca @AP He’s going to be bored in the first half hour, I bet he doesn’t make it more than two hours.

The latest Economist cover says it all.

🇯🇵 🇫🇷 French president, Japanese PM strike 'Dragon Ball' pose French President Emmanuel Macron shared a lighthearted moment with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi during a news conference in Tokyo, turning to each other and cupping their hands in a gesture known as a kamehameha, taken from Japanese manga, anime and video game franchise "Dragon Ball"

@theliamnissan Very strange. I can usually see why I'm shown certain things, trace it back to searching for some dumb thing or other. Do you interact much with other posts?

@danbrusca I'm not sure how I did that. Never actively searched for Epstein content

You go on Instagram and it's just non-stop creepy ass videos about the Epstein files. Why is Twitter so different?

I've thought about it and I think I'm going to get the damn blue check. I've been leaving a ton of money on the table with my Good Posts and I could use the money (people are struggling in the Trump economy). Please don't hate me.

@JammieWF @AP

@danbrusca @AP 100% assured Ukraine colors as your avi demonstrates unparalleled stupidity.

I just want to take this opportunity to point out that there is a man named Henry Walter Wooten, from Smith County, Texas, who is serving 35 YEARS IN PRISON for marijuana possession. Carry on.

My monologue from today’s Times at One with Andrew Neil @TimesRadio President Trump will make a televised nationwide address to the American people tonight at 9pm east coast time.  That’s 2am UK time — the middle of the night — but it might be worth staying up to watch. For what he has to say will matter as much to the rest of the world as it does to Americans.  Mr Trump has already indicated that his War against Iran will be ending in two weeks, maybe three. Now keep in mind that for Mr Trump everything is always two weeks away. And his idea of two weeks is always malleable.  It’s also true he’s lurched between threatening Iran with Armageddon to talking out loud about simply walking away — and you never really know which alternative he’ll land on.   Even so, it does seem as if he’s preparing to declare victory and go home. Perhaps not before he does something quite spectacular — like take out Kharg Island. A White House source told me yesterday he was keen to storm Iran’s premier oil export hub — though to what end was not clear.  Trump is claiming it will take Iran 15 to 20 years for it to rebuild what the US and Israel have destroyed. Maybe — though Iran has a habit of bouncing back quicker than predicted. Even so, it cannot be denied that the tyrants of Tehran have suffered the most almighty bloody nose.  But here’s the thing: they’re still standing, still with an iron grip on the country, still with missiles and drones, still with the ability to intimidate the rest of the Gulf region — and now in control of the Strait of Hormuz, the world’s most significant energy chokepoint.  President Trump, of course, will embellish any retreat with loud claims of victory. Americans might be inclined to accept them, in the hope that petrol at the pump will fall back well below $4 a gallon again.  But the rest of us will have to live with the consequences of his Iranian venture. And we’re looking at a litany of woes  here: *The Strait of Hormuz in Iranian hands, with Tehran setting tolls for those who want to use it, giving it huge political leverage over the whole Gulf. Mr Trump doesn’t seem to care — regarding it as punishment on Europe and Asia for refusing to join his Iranian War.  *Several hundred kilograms of enriched uranium still in Iranian hands, still capable of being enriched to weapons grade at some stage in the future. So much for denying Iran the ability to have the Bomb.  *An Iran still powerful enough to intimidate its Gulf neighbours and even to call the shots as it rebuilds its missile and drone arsenals. A nightmare for our allies in the region.  *Yes, regime change — but not as Mr Trump had billed it. Tehran is now in the grip of the ultra hardliners of the Revolutionary Guard. Dissent will be more brutally repressed than ever.  *A global economy on its knees even with a premature end to the war, as soaring energy prices, shortages and disruption rips round the world.  *Wry smiles in Moscow and Beijing as they watch their ally in the axis of evil, Iran, survive all America had to throw at it while their great adversary, America, retreats with its tail between its legs.  *Even wryer smiles from Moscow and Beijing now that Mr Trump started musing out loud this morning about leaving NATO. Christmas really has come very early for our adversaries this year.  But America is not as insulated as Mr Trump thinks. It still imports 8m bpd of refined and heavy crude. Its prices for jet fuel, diesel, fertilisers, sulphur, aluminium are all determined by the global market — a global market hugely influenced by the Gulf, over which Iran will now have the whip hand.  President Trump will argue that his war on Iran has left the world a better place. The truth will be the opposite for all to see, as will become obvious as the year progresses. It will be scant consolation for those of us having to live with the fallout from his folly that the American people will have their revenge come November’s mid-term elections.

@Tonysamerica @SpencerHakimian The idiot is the guy claiming Iran has a new president.

@SpencerHakimian Jesus Christ youre an idiot

🚨BREAKING: DEMENTIA DON IS HEARING VOICES AGAIN

Masoud Pezeshkian was the president of Iran before the war began. He's still the president of Iran today.

Just a reminder that the senator who sponsored the bill which became law with broad bipartisan support that states a president cannot pull the US out of NATO without congressional approval was … Marco Rubio.
