@Ebrahimazizi33 What’s obvious is that the IRGC is stupid enough to call the bluff. What you ALL seem to forget is that WE don’t need you oil, or the straits to be open or to even care if your stinkin country exists. FAFO
Iran will not be pushed back by Trump’s rhetoric from its red lines: the right to enrich uranium, possession of enriched uranium, authority over the Strait of Hormuz, and the removal of sanctions.
It is obvious Trump, seeking a way out of this strategic deadlock, alternates between issuing threats and appealing for an agreement.
So let’s get facts straight.
1. Trump gets $300-400m donations for the new ballroom. All private, zero tax dollars. Period QED
2. The Intel community presses and insists that for security reasons they need the basement full of CIA toys. This needs $600+ of DoD, DHS and IC money.
3. The CIA agent from MI claims Trump is spending tax dollars on the ballroom.
See how this works?
President Trump wants billions in taxpayer dollars for his ballroom and a “weaponization fund.”
What could we do instead? A lot.
We could fix every dam in Michigan, replace every single lead pipe, or feed kids in schools for 10 years.
The corruption is unreal.
The Reflecting Pool. A gold-plated ballroom. A multimillion-dollar arch.
As you struggle to get by, Trump takes your tax dollars and enriches his friends.
Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America.
He embodies the broken system we’re running against.
It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton
Honored to have the endorsement of my dear friend, @SamuelLJackson
Sam has always shown up for the people and causes he believes in - and I am grateful he is showing up for Los Angeles.
We’re aligned on the change I’m working to bring to L.A. That means getting more people off the streets into housing and connected with comprehensive services. It means more affordable housing units being built. And it means continuing to lower crime down to historic lows.
NOW: Mamdani says his admin will transfer ownership from bad landlords to non-profits.
“For buildings that have suffered chronic neglect, we will work to transfer ownership to responsible stewards.
Stewards that include community land trusts, non-profits, or even the tenants themselves.”
@amar_4inc@MarcoFoster_@grahamformaine STFU, as soon as ALL the democrats who have been stealing billions go to jail, we can talk. Until then, you can STFU!
@MarcoFoster_@grahamformaine Graham Platner is right , billionaires hoarding wealth while working Americans struggle is exactly the system that needs to change. Tax the greed, fund the people.
Graham Platner calls out Jeff Bezos: “There’s absolutely no question that if we target the wealth where it has been hoarded for decades and put it into social programs like healthcare, childcare, paying teachers what they are worth, we will absolutely improve the lives of working Americans. I think what he is pitching is propaganda. It’s meant to protect himself and protect his crony friends and we’re gonna come after them for it”
@MarcoFoster_@grahamformaine No question? So the fact that democrats steal $1T/year in monies that are already support to go to healthcare, childcare and teachers has NOTHING to do with anything?
Nine years ago on Memorial Day:
President Trump met Christian Jacobs at Arlington National Cemetery, where Christian honored his father, Christopher, who gave his life in service.
Yes. And planned in lockstep unison with Russia China and the entire leadership of the GCC/Middle East. Really you can even look to Saudi Arabia as confirmation. What MBS has done there. Trump has been behind him every step of the way. He’s been working on this for 14 years. 6 in public. 8 behind the scenes. The speech he gave in Saudi last year tells you his vision for how all of this ends up.
Dear Mr. @realDonaldTrump
The regime in Iran is lying to you and your negotiators (period, stop!). Do not believe a word they say. I know you want to get out of this mess. All Americans want this unnecessary war to end. Keep in mind, as you have been told many times, Iran is still the leading state sponsor of terrorism (all anyone needs to say is Hezbollah, Hamas & Houthis, never mind IRGC-QF). None of these organizations are going away with this deal.
How about getting them to first publicly apologize for killing American Soldiers and U.S. Marines many times over (especially on this Memorial Day weekend). Yes, we are all sick of it.
And yes, the people of Iran must step up, but we need to signal to them, we will not concede their freedoms to the insane regime in Teheran. They deserve better. If we don’t, we will cause an entire population to be enslaved. For this, we have to smartly use our Middle East partners to support them along with our covert and clandestine operators. Trust me, if you support, this is very doable.
Anyway, I’m watching everything (like most of the world is) and admittedly I do not have all the information. But if we pay tribute to the regime to the tune of $25B, I’m concerned they’ll use it for nefarious purposes down the road.
No nukes in Iran may be a noble idea (an end goal for your administration) but the regime has blatantly lied to our faces before, why do you now believe they will tell you the truth?
Give it some thought. Get some out of the box solutions, and rethink your position. The art of the deal tells you to do that from time to time.
Now may be that time.
@POTUS@SecRubio
@thestustustudio LMAO. Nothing says “I got my money’s worth of an education” like a white Karen wearing a jihadi scarf on the way to “rescue” the communist regime in Cuba on my “flotilla” of 1 dinky sailboat.
🚨 Code Pink’s Olivia DiNucci responded to being named in the Treasury/DOJ reporting by doubling down.
She frames the Cuba convoy as part of a broader “solidarity” pipeline linking Cuba, Palestine, Iran, Congo, and domestic activism, then says the investigation has “activated” them to take more direct action and raise more funds.
This was never just a few activists carrying medical aid to Cuba. By their own telling, it is a transnational political network using “life-affirming aid” as cover for money movement, travel, regime-aligned propaganda, and direct action.
Russian oil began being loaded onto tankers at sea 3 days after Putin and Trump met in Alaska in August. Sanctions on oil at sea weren’t lifted until March. That little data point proves strategy was not random. He likely was in China over Labor Day when the media lost their minds when he was MIA for 3 days. The entire Board of Peace sans Bibi met at the White House 10 days before bombs dropped. Iran was there the entire following week. Details were worked out. Necessary intel exchanged leak free in person. I believe at that BoP meeting Trump said let’s do this once and for all on our terms and 60 nations said we’re in see you for a cigar afterwards. Post action evidence. We have only hit targets in Iran already scheduled for demolition. The old airport not the brand new one. The old bridge. Not its replacement. We did a lot of pounding sand and babysitting while we let the game of you get my bad guys I’ll get your bad guys played out. Exhausted the military capabilities of those who thrive on war. Reorganized and removed the financial and intelligence agency structures that have kept the Middle East strategically chaotic. And made sure that future warmongers in Congress wouldn’t have an easy time reversing what’s been accomplished in the future.
@BernieSanders@grahamformaine Your oligarch rhetoric is stale, working only on those low information voters who are blind to the fact YOU sold this country out to those very same, not once but many times. So just go away
On our way to Bangor, Maine for a rally with @grahamformaine.
The crises facing our country are too serious for establishment politics and tinkering around the edges.
We need candidates like Graham who will take on the greed of the oligarchs and deliver for working families.

Classic Marxist propaganda technique. Claim your opponent of serious and vile positions without a single quote, example or fact! Yet you quote the SPLC’s reinforcing factless accusation. The same organization that has been fomenting hate and division just to further their own interests.
