Even the president is amazed the market takes his statements at face value.

So Strait blocked, timeline moves further out, meanwhile Iran has yet to even agree to another round of talks and yet here we are, optimistic. Well, alrighty then!

@dhruv_ky and BTW the "posturing" is all framed by the president's team, we have zero visibility into the Iranian side, only history of how they negotiate to rely on

@iuubob Market is giving him a pass and Iran seems to be “posturing for a deal”

What I find far more interesting than this tweet is the picture showing Stevie Miller Deputy Chicef of Staff was at the table. That was quite clearly at the president's behest.

अब्बास अराकची ने बाकायदा ट्वीट किया है। वे कहते हैं कि सब कुछ ठीक चल रहा था। कल रात देर तक मैंने लाइव किया था—सब कुछ ठीक चल रहा था। जेडी वेंस, जो अमेरिका के वाइस प्रेसिडेंट हैं, बाकी नेगोशिएशन टीम के साथ बातचीत कर रहे थे। इसी दौरान स्टीव विटकॉफ और जेरड कुशनर अचानक बातचीत के बीच में आ जाते हैं, जबकि वे उस कमरे में मौजूद नहीं थे। कहा जा रहा है कि वे बातचीत के बीच में आए और इज़राइल के प्रधानमंत्री नेतन्याहू का संदेश लेकर आए। खुद अब्बास अराकची ने यह बात कही है कि बातचीत के दौरान जेडी वेंस को इज़राइल के प्रधानमंत्री बेंजामिन नेतन्याहू की कॉल आती है, और उसके बाद बातचीत नाकाम हो जाती है। अब आप समझ जाएं कि किस तरह इज़राइल का प्रभाव अमेरिकी कूटनीति और उसकी आधिकारिक विदेश नीति पर हावी है।

Why is it that I think that all the optimism with respect to the US/Iran discussions/negotiations is coming from one side and the aim isn't to merely illuminate the backroom dealings going on. Iran is notoriously difficult to negotiate with, should that be less so in this case?
I hardly think so. I am sidelined ATM and have zero skin in the game. That said, I'm not buying this rosy picture being sold.

Now NY Post headlines drive the market perfect for the time, SMH

I will remind folks that want to know the back story of ISR, US and Iran, the WSJ, NYT and FT have again had incredible reporting on the back story. If you are uncertain please read what those sources have reported.

Swalwell was always a scumbag, good riddance you pest. BTW I am betting we get a rehab notice this week on him based on my info.

The fact is Don needs the Strait of Hormuz unblocked, absent that gas is gonna be too high for him not to bleed politically and bleed profusely. I think he understands the same. The problem is he isn't negotiating with a party who has the same needs nor a remotely similar timeline.
He has a real problem without an easy solution.

Even #SenRJohnson can't get his defense straight, geesh, stuff is a mess.
