@DakdaR22 Looool! Not only is she incompetent, she’s also a moron. I wouldn’t promote her past shift manager at a local McDonald’s.

Time to replace Mark Rutte as the head of NATO for someone who actually represents the alliance. I fully support Kaja Kallas 🫡 Who is with me🙌

@WassonWatch Never happened. Post proof lmao

The Woke Reich is insane, dangerous, and anti American.

@elonmusk CHRIST HAS RISEN!

✝️ Happy Easter! ✝️

@Devon_Eriksen_ ITS GROWING BEFORE MY VERY EYES!!! Boy oh boy, FINALLY before like the next year I’ll get to see if my Marcus theories are correct!

0430. Pushed 3k words to git master. To sleep, perchance to dream.

@scarletthampt0n What’s a sweet girl like you doing with a pos like Ralph? Seriously?!

Disgusting bitch.

@Andywarski @Asmongold Worst crossover ever lmao!

Yo @Asmongold - DSP is having a birthday party with cake and balloons and has invited you formally and wants you to see this. If you decide to go and bring a gift he really likes support. Have a fun time if you decide to go. 🎈 🎂

I’m saddened to hear that the seventh U.S. military casualty was a brave Kentuckian. My prayers are with all the families of the American service members who have died in the war with Iran, and I am praying for a full recovery of those who have been seriously injured.

@RepThomasMassie I don’t see Barron Trump volunteering?

@MattH_4America Sold out. Or He was always too old and easily swayed.

Honest question, what the fuck happened to Trump?

@sorenpind Så kunne vi alle sammen dø for en konflikt som ikke vedrører os? Fantastisk ide!

Det her er kun en brøkdel af Europa. Tænk om vi var samlet

@jonasholmdk Desuden er de Ukrainske droner kun beregnet på at forsvare imod små FPV droner. Som der slet ikke er tale om i Iran. Zelensky er en klovn, og ingen burde tage ham seriøst.

Tankevækkende at Ukraine, som selv har rigeligt at gøre med at afværge Russiske droner og missiler, nu skal hjælpe USA og golfstaterne imod Iran. Hvilket fantastisk overskud. Håber der kommer økonomisk hjælp og Tomahawks den anden vej.

@jonasholmdk Ukraine bliver sønderbombet hver aften, og kan ikke engang holde lys og varme igang. Tror du selv de kan beskytte Saudi Arabien når de ikke engang kan beskytte sig selv? Zelensky bruger bare kynisk en mulighed for at folk ikke glemmer Ukraine og den krig han er ved at tabe.

@sonofchinggis @OTregub In retrospect, it was always a mistake to include countries like the Baltics in the EU. They’ll always try and hijack institutions to nurse their particular ethnic and national grievances.

Something uncomfortable is happening in Hungary – and too few people are talking about it. The recent detention of Ukrainian bank employees carrying cash through Hungary was not a law enforcement operation and but an FSB style operation: heavily armed officers, disproportionate force, and reportedly even interrogations conducted in Russian. Inside the EU and NATO! I say this as someone who lived in Hungary. Hungarians used to be extremely sensitive about Russia. They remember 1956, when Soviet troops drowned their revolution in blood. Even hearing Russian spoken in public spaces could make people uncomfortable. Which is why it feels surreal to watch parts of the society completely forgot this history lesson and support a Russian agent in power. With elections coming and Péter Magyar polling well ahead of Orbán, there are already warnings about Russian “political technologies” being deployed. Ukrainians know these methods well. The EU should watch these elections very closely. Letting Russia steal it would be a huge blow.

@OTregub @sonofchinggis Ukraine is a corrupt shithole every bit as bad as Russia. Quit trying to drag the rest of the world down with you.

Ukrainians developed Russophobia once Russia started bombing the capital and whole country. Even when Russia started invading from the East in 2014 Ukrainians still continued listening to Russian music and read Russian books. It’s a gradual awakening, which is still undergoing btw. Remembering the history lessons is part of it. One of the lessons is that Russia brings death and destruction. It applies to all nations whom Russia can reach in its neighborhood. Including Hungary.

@OTregub Suuure… Let’s just pretend that a SBU general smuggling cash and gold bars through a third country is just totally normal banking lol

@tedcruz @TuckerCarlson She’s an antisemite because… She’s a Catholic and unlike Ted Cruz doesn’t take AIPAC money?!

I’m shocked—shocked—that Tucker invited yet ANOTHER Israel-hating crazed antisemite on his podcast. Is there a single Jew-hater @TuckerCarlson won’t have on his show?

@captive_dreamer Then go and volunteer then. Leave the rest of us and our tax dollars out of it. Go fight for western civilization in some corrupt shithole where you don’t speak the language. What’s stopping you?

I'm MAGA and we support Ukraine btw - this is a war against the enemies of Western Civilization.

@mazzenilsson ONE Russian Ballistic submarine could turn Sweden into a parking lot. We’re talking 16 missiles with 4-10 500kton warheads? Each of them 8 times bigger than the Hiroshima nuke. And the Swedes want to play chicken? Insanity.

I miss the old Olof Palme Social Democrats... the new ones are batshit...

@MagnaRepublica @emira_kasem @SenRandPaul See, wasn’t he supposed to be smart and not easily duped?

@SBombalot @emira_kasem @SenRandPaul Well, I guess that was 1week too many for President Trump.

We keep hearing new reasons for war with Iran—none convincing. “Free the oppressed” sounds noble, but where does it end? We’ve been told for decades Iran is weeks from a nuke. War should be a last resort, not our first move. A war of choice is not my choice. Liberty must come from within, not by U.S. troops.

@Devon_Eriksen_ @AndrewCFollett Trump had a historic opportunity to reshape American politics for decades. But he chose to piss away his coalition and start another war for Israel. The midterms are going to be a, very predictable, slaughter.

@AndrewCFollett I hope so, but hope is not the same thing as evidence.

I have mixed feelings about war with Iran. On one hand, I tire of third-world military adventurism. It invariably turns into a military-industrial cash grab. On the other, John Konrad, here refocuses our attention on what is really important... keeping the trade lanes running. The modern tech stack and industrial base depends on raw materials from all over the world, and the global shipping network that grew up to serve that need, different regions have been able to specialize in different kinds of manufacturing as well. The real function of a global superpower is to keep the trade network running. That means two things. First of all, naval power to keep the sea lanes open, like I said. Remember that silly chart of global warming vs. pirates? Well, the correlation is real. A global industrial economy, which produces the carbon emissions, requires you to kill all the pirates. The second is colonialism. The real point of colonialism isn't what you think. It isn't to own the planet or dominate all the brown people because you have a control fetish. The point of colonialism is stable extraction economies. If you need oil, and rubber, and lithium, and coal, and industrial diamond, and lumber, to run your high-tech society, and most of the world, who lives where those things are, is still at the level of whacking-at-the-dirt-with-a-stick, then you have to intervene, and reorganize the places until they're at least stable and advanced enough to extract the stuff and sell it to you. Why do you think neither the Brits nor the Americans ever conquered Saudi Arabia? They didn't need to. The newly united kingdoms of Hejaz and Nejd were perfectly willing to drill, pump, sell, and pull in Western expertise where it was needed. And later to provide the Americans with air bases when they needed to fuck someone in the region up for messing with the trade routes or oil wells. Arguably, America's greatest ally is the House of Saud. They provide us with a regional beachhead, and keep the oil flowing, and we keep them filthy rich and in charge. So, between these two critical dependencies of human civilization — sea trade and raw materials — there's a legitimate case for needing to oppose Iran. The nuke thing is just a smoke screen for that. Problem is, the West has handled this so terribly in the past that most of the current situation is our fault. The Iranians wanted to nationalize (steal) the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. The dispute here was legitimate. The Persians believed the oil was theirs because it was in their ancestral lands. The British believed it was theirs because it had been discovered by the British, developed by British capital, and exploited through British skill and British ingenuity. Instead of brokering some sort of deal, the Brits, with CIA assistance, led by Kermit Roosevelt Jr, sponsored a coup to put the Iranian monarch back in power as a, ah... puppet... ruler. The jokes just write themselves. So this lasted for about six years of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi disappearing and torturing anyone who had ever opposed or criticized him, until some of the Persians, fed up with this sort of thing, rallied around the one set of leaders they had left... Islamic mullahs. And of course, these guys weren't moderate Muslims. They weren't chanting a few obligatory "death to Americas" in public, then negotiating with us behind closed doors. They really, really, really hate the West, and they keep trying cause trouble. But they never would have been in power in the first place if it weren't for the greed and arrogance of the political class. I would like to see a US foreign policy that is free from military industrial corruption, doesn't try to loot taxpayers with perpetual occupation and "regime change" schemes, and confines itself to enforcing a few simple rules. Don't attack us. Don't pay other people to attack us. Don't mess with global trade. I'd like to see America targeting political leadership that breaks these rules... but confining itself to those objectives. No interference with the internal politics of third world states. No regime change. No bringing democracy to the planet. They don't want it, and we can't make them. That kind of shit just humiliates them, and most third-world societies value reputation more than life. I don't think there's any hope of a new regime in Iran that doesn't hate or at least resent America. We screwed up their country with the arrogance of our political class. But if we confine ourselves to limited objectives of preserving the global trade economy, then we may, in time, get the best results we can hope for, which is more House of Saud and less Houthi. Or, best of all, if we stop wasting our blood and treasure on stupid military projects, we can start mining asteroids instead, which don't have any angry savages camping on them.
