@StateDept It's simple. Leave them alone, remove the sanctions and get the fuck out of Gulf.

SECRETARY RUBIO: We’re asking the UN to call on Iran to stop blowing up ships, remove the mines, and allow humanitarian relief. If the international community can’t rally behind this and solve something so straightforward, then I don’t know what the utility of the UN system is.

@lady_valor_07 No one should have to tip. The owners should pay staff properly. Only in America is tipping a thing.

We went to a dinner as a group and had a $500 bill. We tipped $40. We were happy we can be able to give our server something, but her reaction was the opposite. She told us she assumed we're going to give her at least $120. When we asked for the manager, she said she was just joking, but she wasn't smiling at all. Idk, but is $40 tip enough for $500 bill? I just feel like expecting $120 is not realistic. ~Lea Robertson

@amjadt25 Fuck you, I'm with Iran.

You are either with the UAE or with the evil Islamic regime. No silence is accepted. Right now, the Islamic regime in Iran is targeting my beloved country, the UAE, with drones and missiles. The UAE is crushing them, intercepting, destroying, and defending not just its land, but the safety of over 200 nationalities who call it home. Stand clear. Choose your side. UAE is safe and strong.

@realstewpeters He was harmless as the clown on Bill O'Reilly's show, but now he is a sick joke.

JESSE WATERS: “Unblocking the Strait while we maintain the blockade is going to bring Iran’s negotiating team to its knees. And we did all this without putting boots on the ground.” What the fuck is this guy talking about? Jesse Waters has turned into a caricature of himself.

@MelissaAFrancis Bring it on. It will only mean world economic chaos and that you will be crushed big time. But be my guest.

🚨BREAKING 🚨According to my sources: the UAE is expected to lead an Arab coalition to overthrow the Iranian regime within 24 hours. Israel and US expected to participate

@r3tarddownunder Yes, they are no good, but so were the lowlife scumbags that preceded them for decades.

If you blame Trump over these three retards for the current situation in Australia, then you are retarded.

@The_FJC FJC is raring his ugly head again.

Today American Apache helicopters flew over the Strait of Hormuz. Today American destroyers sailed where Iran said they couldn't. Today American-flagged ships passed where Iran said nothing would pass. Today Iran's speedboats met the US Navy. It didn't end well for Iran. This is what American strength looks like. God bless every service member out there tonight. 🇺🇸

@ThePatriotOasis What complete bullshit. Iran holds all the cards. Once the Ayatollah was assassinated, you were fucked.

🚨 JUST NOW: Iran is spiraling into panic as President Trump has completely outmaneuvered them and taken full control of the Strait of Hormuz. Their aggressive gamble has backfired in spectacular fashion — and Tehran is powerless to stop it. Iranian ports are now completely shut down. No ships can enter or exit because of the crushing U.S. Navy blockade. President Trump has issued a blunt new warning: any further escalation by Iran in the Persian Gulf will be met with overwhelming force. Iran is trapped with no good options left.

@BobBurn97207272 It is no longer relevant. Nothing ever gets past the veto system. Corrupt, yes definitely.

The United Nations is the most corrupt, evil body on the face of the earth. The time has long passed where every western nation should walk out.

@_A_khalifa Yes, free from US and Israeli bombing, terrorism, sanctions and assassinations. If only.

MAKE IRAN FREE AGAIN!

@afshinrattansi Where do they find morons like Bessant. I can see Bessant and Lutnick driving down the highway in Dumb and Dumber 2.

More American🇺🇸 delusion from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: ‘Attacks from Iran have closed the Strait, and we are reopening it. I would urge China🇨🇳 to join us in supporting this international operation.’ The US openly admits it is trying to choke off China’s oil supply through the war on Iran, is sanctioning Chinese companies for buying Iranian oil… And now wants China to take Washington’s side. Imperial hubris evolves into imperial stupidity. If the US wants any help in convincing Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz, maybe sanctioning Chinese companies and openly declaring economic war on Beijing was not the best idea?

@news_australian You can't be over 100% mate.

BREAKING: The odds of Pauline Hanson becoming the next Australian Prime Minister is sitting at 1/1 with over 100% Aussies supporting her. Are you loving the odds? #auspol #PaulineHanson

@TonyStuart55 @chrisluxonmp Yes, Australia has had one jerk off PM after another. No foresight, no wisdom, just wanking up to the next election.

Remember when Albo flew to Singapore a few weeks ago and got one tanker of diesel? The Left was demanding @chrisluxonmp do the same. Instead Luxon was in discussions with Singapore PM Lawrence Wong, and in their discussions they came up with a deal that will ensure fuel will continue to flow from Singapore. Having reached a deal, the PM flew up to Singapore yesterday, and the Agreement on Trade in Essential Supplies (AOTES) was signed today - link below. Luxon played the long game, and this is a major win for him. Petrol and diesel will keep flowing even in uncertain times, and we’re building stronger reserves at home to protect our country from global shocks and disruption. Well done Prime Minister👍🇸🇬🇳🇿 beehive.govt.nz/release/nz-and…

@The_FJC If I wrote what I think FJC stands for, I'd be thrown off X.

Before Trump's Iran strategy: Iran funded Hamas. Hezbollah. The Houthis. All three are now dismantled or crippled. The Middle East hasn't been this quiet in 40 years. The media won't say it. So I will. Trump won.

@Katherine_deves Yes, vote them out for sure, but we don't want the LNP either.

🇦🇺 Labor have rigged the voting system They have shored up their voting base with immigration, bloated public service, & more & more people reliant on government largesse A system doomed to fail Vote the commies out #australiafirst

@magataotao You are Australia's Gordon Chang.

You Westerners who visit China for a holiday, to study, or to work — you really think you can lecture me on what China is actually like? What a joke. Unless you’re a Chinese citizen living here as an ordinary person, your outsider perspective doesn’t count. The Chinese government is simply using you as convenient propaganda tools to sell a fake, polished image of the country. Half the Chinese population still earns only about RMB 1,000 a month — roughly AUD $200. Rural villagers’ retirement pension is just RMB 200, or around AUD $40 a month. This is the reality of “socialism with Chinese characteristics” under the Chinese Communist Party. The only people who are truly rich and powerful are Xi Jinping and his inner circle.

@Aussieannie59 @OneNationAus I'm older than you and I have joined The Citizens Party. The duopoly has to go.

I've never joined a political party in my life. I am now 67. And today I joined @OneNationAus 🧡

@itsrosesm You must be kidding. Trump is the most corrupt president in the history of the United States. He has made billions from his presidency, including insider trading and gifts from corrupt gulf despots.

Obama donated NONE of his salary. Michelle had a staff of 23. Trump donates ALL of his salary. Melania has a staff of 4. In life there are givers and there are takers.

@magataotao You should be deported.

As a Chinese immigrant and an Australian citizen, I must warn you all: Communist China is the evil force behind much of the chaos in our world today. It actively supports Islamic Iran, North Korea, Russia, the U.S. Democrat Party, and Australia’s Labor Party. If Labor/Green continues to be in charge, Australia will be in a worse situation and big trouble. Labor/Green has learned a lot from China. Jacinta Allen who visited China in Sep 2025. And the notorious Dan Andrews visited China numerous times, most notably in early 2023 as the first Australian leader to visit post-pandemic, and more controversially in Sep 2025 as a private citizen to attend a massive military parade. Do you see the picture now? America under President Trump must be our strongest ally — not Communist China. China’s communism regime is our enemy! ❤️🇦🇺❤️🇺🇸

@FurkanGozukara America is furked. Full of corruption, greed, hate and self loathing. A truly evil nation.

Absolute diplomatic disaster. Donald Trump publicly attacks the German Chancellor for disagreeing with his unhinged Iran policy. He then gleefully boasts about starving the Iranian people with an illegal blockade. Washington's foreign policy is run by a madman.
