This guy is so full of shit… that spin was epic… they will build trust and not let anyone dominate Iran . By not listening to Anyone is how they’ll achieve this goal of building trust and putting mines in the straight of Hormuz and firing off missiles at all neighboring countries by holding everyone around them hostage. This oil rich nation wants uranium enrichment to weapons grade not energy producing levels …with a 30 year track record stirring up conflict and opposing dissent from its own citizens by killing them. Sorry … this isn’t the flex you think it is they have shown zero restraint there is no need for enrichment with that history as they are so willing to hold everyone around them hostage.

Every word in this speech by Iranian foreign minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi (after failed talks with US in Pak) is gold. Must be listened to again and again (read subtitles), shared, and preserved to inspire clarity of thought, confidence and self-respect.

Tell me you haven’t gone to college without telling me you haven’t gone to college rates been above 4 pct for a long time… I can verify at least since 2013 however not sure why this person owes more than originally borrowed especially if you took advantage of the interest free payments during covid …

@MatrixMysteries @KnipLs Total lie. Federal loans rates are capped by Congress around 4%. The math ain’t matching unless she missed payments and got penalties.

An American checks her student loans. She borrowed $49,548.74. After 120 payments, she’s paid $25,558.36. Her current balance? $50,121.33. After paying $25k… she now owes MORE than she originally borrowed. This isn’t aid — it’s a SCAM.

It’s more like having to pay to work… if you’re a lender and you know people have to repay the loan no matter what then I’d give as much money out as possible with guranteed repayment… furthermore even with 6-7 pct interest the government loses money on these loans( at least the income driven repayment) take down interest rates make the borrowing the most beneficial for the borrower principle first interest last or some arrangement. These people are taking a risk on themselves going through the education system. Education shouldn’t be this expensive.

@WallStreetApes That was her choice. That's like buying a new vehicle and then crying about having to make the payments. She KNEW how much it would cost her.

American healthcare worker says she has $105,309.76 of student loan debt Between her loans she’s accruing roughly $464 in interest debt alone every single month If she was to pay $1,000 per month, it would still take her 10 years to pay off this loan. Even at a $1,000 per month payment she would pay roughly $51,000 just in interest This is predatory lending. This is a scam

@MilkRoadAI Just a tad more battery degradation over the life of the car with that rate of recharge… maybe …

The last excuse for not going electric just died. China just solved the only real problem holding electric cars back. BYD unveiled a system called Megawatt Flash Charging. Their new chargers deliver 1,500 kilowatts of raw powerthat is three times what Tesla's fastest Supercharger can do in the United States. The result is almost impossible to believe, a dead battery goes from 10% to 97% charge in nine minutes. For comparison, filling up a gas tank takes five to eight minutes and BYD just matched that number for an electric car. BYD rebuilt the entire system from scratch. New battery chemistry and new silicon carbide chips with the highest voltage rating ever put in a production car. A 1,000-volt architecture running through every single component, they call it the Super e-Platform, and it is the first of its kind ever mass produced for passenger vehicles. Here is what makes this more dangerous for Western automakers than any price war. BYD makes the battery, the charger, the chip, and the car all in-house. The charging stations are not even hidden in parking garages, they are built to look exactly like gas stations, T shaped canopies, pull-up lanes, liquid-cooled guns that start charging ten seconds after you plug in. In America, fast charging means 350 kilowatts and a 40 minute stop while BYD is doing 1,500 kilowatts and nine minutes. That gap is not closing but rather widening. By the end of this year, BYD plans to build 20,000 Flash Charging stations across China, Tesla took years to build a fraction of that globally. The question is no longer whether electric cars can compete with gas. The question is whether American and European automakers can compete with BYD and right now, the honest answer is no.

@alon_mizrahi @adam_tooze What’s your definition of win a war because it really matters in this senario where most of previous leadership is gone in Iran ? Is a win considered regime change? Ships flowing in the straight ? Or a flattened glass area ? Or a negiotated deal? Enrichment capabilities? Curious?

Let's spend coffee time playing a little wargame in which the US decides to take on Iran and commit to a full war against it Look at this map. Where could the US stage an invasion of Iran? To Iran's east, you'll find Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Turkmenistan. A big triple no. To Iran's south: the Persian Gulf which it completely dominates. No good. To Iran's west: Iraq and Turkiye. The first a definite no, the second, a no so probable it must be considered a certain. Turkiye will not go to war with Iran for the US and Israel - a war not only sure to decimate it, but a war Turkich people will be fanatically against. To Iran's north is the Caspian Sea. No use. Azerbaijan and Armenia present an opening, but how will hundreds of thousands of NATO soldiers get there (let alone undetected)? If they go by sea, they will need to traverse the Mediterranean and the Black Sea and virtually physically go through Istanbul. Not only politically complicated, but a long long journey that gives Iran tons of time to prepare. Remember the months and months the US took to amass forces for the Iraq invasion? It took 6 months or so - with no interruptions. The problem is, with Iran, there's no way they're going to simply build up forces near the designated target's borders. Iran has an arsenal of hundreds of thousands of guided and precise ballistic missiles, satellites in space and eyes almost everywhere. If a war is declared or started, every American asset within 0-3000 kilometers of Iran's borders will be bombarded so viciously no missile defense system will be able to stop it. And all those dozens and dozens of American bases scattered throughout the vast area surrounding Iran? How will the US defend them under an attack on a scale of 1000 October 7th's combined? Additionally, Iran has the most sophisticated anti-ship missiles in the world (Russia's Yakhont), of which it probably has thousands by now. This means no surface ship is going to be able to come close enough to Iran to make it an effective striking weapon (is this going to be the first time we get to see an aircraft carrier drowning? I believe potentially yes). The US will have to rely on air superiority, but this is going to prove a very difficult, almost impossible task. US planes will have to fly a long way to get to Iran (and back), and it has invested massively in air defense systems, including some of the most sophisticated in Russia's arsenal. The US will lose many planes which will take years to replenish, and Iran will be able to target with ballistic missiles and drones all the bases from which they take off in Europe or the Middle East. Another tool the US will use is cruise missiles fired from submarines: but this, too, does not win wars, and can be costly against a rival that prepared for this. A full-scale invasion of Iran will require potentially millions of soldiers and will take years. The West is simply incapable of an effort of this kind: where will they find millions of young men willing to die at sea in order to occupy a country thousands of miles away? Today? Give me a break. All this time the Iranians will be defending their home and their independence. The West will be trying to colonize and destroy them. They will have Gaza on their minds. - I didn't mention Israel because it is virtually irrelevant in this war. Hizbullah alone is enough to paralyze it and keep its military busy for months. - Bonus point: think about what happens to energy prices in an actual war with Iran. 500$ for an oil barrel? 1000$? 2000$? All is possible. Guess what country will remain the biggest international producer and exporter of oil and gas, and rip all those extra many, many trillions. You guessed tight. Russia. If the Persian Gulf is up in flames, Russia will become a global economic superpower (at a time when the US is dwindled militarily and economically and cannot even fake a military threat against it). - Another bonus point: you think Iran cannot, or will not attack on American soil? Think again. From cyber attacks to large-scale, professional, military-level sabotage and guerrilla warfare, in a war with Iran life in the US will definitely not be business as usual, and not only because inflation will be something 200%, and thousands of dead soldiers will return home in coffins every month for a long time. - The US cannot win a war against Iran. And I believe all parties involved know it. The only thing that remains unknown is how insane and self-destructive the US has become under Netanyahu's and AIPAC's, how shall we call it, influence

@seattletimes Time will tell, but in 2yrs when tax revs drop due to wealthy ppl leaving the state, we'll see how wrong these BS propaganda articles are. Hopefully the courts reverse this garbage before to many people leave.

About 8 in 10 of the Washington residents who will have to pay the new millionaire's income tax live in Democratic districts. Legislators there say their rich constituents are fine with it, writes columnist Danny Westneat. ebx.sh/oXORV4

Let’s not be like Norway and tax the higher incomes which lead to a tax revenue decline. This state doesn’t have great weather conditions and people in those brackets and incomes can go anywhere. There is nothing tying people to this geographical location. To post about a future revenue decline thinking this was improvement … what a joke.

I just signed the Millionaires' Tax into law. We're rebalancing our unfair system while providing free school meals, the largest small business tax break in state history, no sales tax on baby diapers, and checks to nearly 500,000 working families to make life more affordable.

Fake voter fraud? Ask the people in Fulton county about fake voter fraud… and have you already forgotten about the senate bill 6084??? that was passed in Washington state on 3/17/26 and what that accomplished. You’re really out of touch…please secure future elections! if people want to vote they will take the necessary time and resources to get the documents and provide the identification necessary. We aren’t asking people to own property. Pass the SAVE act.

Republicans will talk all day long about their voter suppression bill and fake voter fraud—but they won't say a thing about how they'll actually lower your costs.

@Acyn Are some DHS employees more important than others? Fund all of DHS they are all government workers … are we being equitable here?

Landsman: Trump could’ve funded TSA from the very beginning. Why didn’t he do it? Why did he allow the long lines? Why did he send in ICE when he knew he could pay TSA from the start? Why is that?

@PattyMurray Hell yes we are ! If that’s bar that is required to secure elections that’s such a small price to pay. We aren’t asking people to be owners of land… Git R done… pass the Save act.

The SAVE America Act is a disaster for democracy and I'm not going let it get passed into law. Are we seriously going to ask rural seniors to buy a $165 passport and drive miles and miles to register to vote in person?

@GovBobFerguson What is a budget? Full stop any recent/ new legislation it’s absolutely not helping affordability…

I proposed a historic investment to build and preserve affordable housing. The Legislature stepped up with more than $200 million in a unanimous vote. That investment, in addition to bills that make it easier to build more housing, will make our state more affordable.

Measles is Not the End of The World Amish, Mennonites, and other communities have never taken vaccines. Elective hospitalization for isolation purposes is unnecessary and works to inflate public health statistics. Very rare, severe cases should get prompt treatment. Dr McCullough with Lila Rose. @LilaGraceRose

@americanvoice__ Didnt Portland Oregon do this?? pretty much decriminalized carrying small amounts of every narcotic. Property theft rates way up and overdoses increased as well. Not sure if anything got better but legalization doesn’t seem like the way to go.

Thoughts on this?

@SilencedCal @WallStreetApes Anyone for better borrowing terms so that the student loans benefits the borrower the most? interest last / principle first kind of set up… lower rates would be great to… the government still loses money on a income driven repayment type student loan with 6.7% interest…

Amortized interest payments. Is this not taught in high school? What are we doing? This is exactly how mortgage payments work as well. If you pay the minimum payment, you will pay a ton of interest. If you kick in a couple hundred extra dollars each month, you will drastically reduce the amount of interest you will pay over the course of the loan.

American pays $900 monthly payments on her students loans Last time she looked was January, the balance was $100k She checked again, after 11 months of payments $9,900, her balance has only gone down $1,400 That’s more than $8,500 in interest every year. This should be illegal

@epochhealth Wow zosyn for Lyme disease I don’t register zosyn as narrower in coverage and as others have mentioned it’s only Iv but yeah if could get a protocol where you load it Iv x 1 over 30 minutes then determine if if more doses are necessary or some sort of protocol

A Forgotten Antibiotic Just Shook Up the Lyme Disease Debate In a pair of new studies, one overlooked drug eliminated Lyme bacteria at doses 100x lower than standard antibiotics—without wrecking the gut microbiome. Even more surprising? It might prevent infection entirely. And it's already FDA-approved. Now the question is… why hasn’t this been used all along? 🧵 THREAD

@GinnyMcDonald8 Let’s get some interest rate caps! 2.5pct or 1 pct what do the people think will be acceptable ? 7 or 8 pct is wild … and let’s structure the loan to be the most favorable to the borrower. Cause if you die with those loans keep burdening others.

@LikeTheCheeez @SawyerMerritt Probably drunk college kids…

@SawyerMerritt If you guys leave Austin.. who’s gonna use the robotaxis?

Ride booked.

@elonmusk Let’s find a way to incentivize the parents kind of makes you wonder a few more stats like attendance rates if the kids aren’t at school how do you teach them ? Plus that district should probably adopt a different curriculum with those stats…

Unless incentives are changed, the outcome will not improve. Successful teachers should receive higher compensation and terrible teachers must be fired.

Restructure these loans principle first interest last ? Whatever is most favorable to the borrower and smallest amount of interest… 8 pct for some of those loans is utter bullshit because you can’t file bankruptcy on those loans they stick no matter what. If I was a finacial institution I’d give them out like candy.

🚨BREAKING: President Trump will resume collection of outstanding and defaulted student loan payments starting May 5th, 2025. Taxpayers who never went to college will no longer have to pay for the loans of those who did. GOOD!

@mrshelby101 @TuckerCarlson Who is taking these polls anyway and why are they wrong for the most part?Wasn’t there a time when trump didn’t poll well… and the polls constantly had him losing elections. The trust worthiness of these polls seem very unreliable in the US… is it the same in Ireland?
