Whether the US leaves now or later, Iran has achieved a decisive and irreversible strategic victory. The US will never reclaim its bases in the Persian Gulf region, and they will never again be able to exert control over the Strait of Hormuz. And the Arab sheikdoms are doomed.

Trump sitting there while Brett Kavanaugh delivers him the single greatest SCOTUS win in recent history

@jxcxbrxss @RealPData It is. We have more oil than expected.

@RealPData It’s not

Seems significant

We slaughtered a whole bunch of Iranian troops and destroyed one of their primary missile launch sites. Iran is neutered. Trump won. This is likely why the Iranian president is begging for peace now.

@BallsackSports "minding their own business."

I’m disappointed that these athletes won’t comment on any of the major issues we’re facing in our world but are VERY vocal on a small subset of the population minding their own business. All that power to actually help people and they don’t actually care.

Literally none of the opinion polls say this but okay This guy would post generic "woke is bad" clickbait during Biden's time and now has hopped on the MAGA to Groyper Retard pipeline while it's trendy

@SvenR213384 @nicksortor Hamas is funded by Netanyahu.

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump just posted a video of MASSIVE explosions in Isfahan, Iran following what’s believed to be U.S.-Israeli airstrikes We clearly hit something pretty big…

@RealToddChapman @nicksortor

This pisses me off. We have no business being there. NONE! Israel wants this war, let them fight it. I didn’t vote for this. Hell, this hasn’t even been approved by congress! Never thought I’d say this but NO KING! —this comes from a 3 time voter and donator to DJT campaigns. 😡

I wonder how terrible it must be for Tyler Sternbach to have an American patriot as a dad and then seeing him log on here to say that US soldiers should be killed by Iranian drones. Raising a child for decades to have them spit in your face like this. Horrible.

🚨 Glenn Greenwald Calls the Iran War a ‘Disastrous Horrific Sh*t Show’ “Between the Israelis and Trump … I could see them resorting to very desperate measures because they can't lose the war … I wouldn't put anything past what they'd be willing to do.”

Trump called the people leaving the movement pussies and free loaders.

@jorgewheelock @PeterWrangel @ianmSC You're going to need to good drugs in November 2028. Denial isn't a river in Egypt.

Los Angeles County has lost over 300,000 residents in just over five years, a number the size of Pittsburgh. Nearly 700,000 people, more than the population of Boston, moved out of LA to other parts of the country That is the failure of progressive politics in a nutshell

Never forget:

We are in the middle of the beginning stages of a manufacturing boom folks. The numbers the last two months have been screaming that it’s coming, all while the Marxists at UMich are still worshiping at the altar of tarifflation.

All episodes of The Adventures of Pete & Pete are on YouTube. I think it's time for a re-watch. I haven't watched the show since I was a kid.

Israel wasn’t puppeteering Donald J. Trump in 1987 when he stood on national television, and laid out the ironclad case for seizing Iranian oil fields in retaliation for their tanker-war savagery. And they sure as fuck aren’t controlling him now. No one ever has. No one ever will. The very notion is a pathetic fever-dream peddled by weak minds who need a scapegoat for their own impotence. Nineteen eighty-seven wasn’t some Zionist boardroom script...it was the goddamn Tanker War, the bloody naval guts of the Iran-Iraq slaughter. Iranian Revolutionary Guards were mining the Strait of Hormuz like rabid dogs, blowing up neutral shipping, choking 20 percent of the world’s oil supply while the Reagan administration played patty-cake with half-measures. Operation Earnest Will was already underway: U.S. Navy escorts taking fire, mines ripping hulls, Iranians testing American resolve with every speedboat and Silkworm missile. Trump...then a brash New York real-estate titan with zero political handlers and zero need for AIPAC cocktail parties...looked Diane Sawyer dead in the eye on ABC and said what every red-blooded strategist with a grasp of history already knew: hit them where it bleeds. Take the oil. Starve the mullahs’ war machine. Project power without apology. This wasn’t “Israeli orders.” This was pure, unfiltered geopolitical calculus, straight out of the Clausewitz playbook: the enemy’s center of gravity is his economy. Deny it, and you break him. Trump saw it then because he’s always seen it...resource dominance as the ultimate deterrent. Psychologically? Trump has never been anyone’s marionette. The man’s wiring is pure apex predator: self-reliance forged in the cutthroat arena of 1980s Manhattan deal-making, where loyalty is currency and weakness is death. He doesn’t bend to lobbies; he bends reality to his will. His 1987 rhetoric mirrors his 2026 posture with eerie precision...America First, transactional dominance, no forever wars unless they serve the ledger. That consistency isn’t puppetry; it’s the mark of a man who has stared down bankruptcy, media assassination, and two assassination attempts without flinching. Controlled? Laughable. The conspiracy cultists projecting their own slave-mentality onto him reveal more about their fractured egos than his spine. They crave a hidden hand because admitting Trump acts on raw, unscripted American instinct would shatter their worldview. Pathetic. Geopolitically, the mullahs have been a cancer since Khomeini’s revolution...exporting terror, chasing nukes, strangling the Gulf. Trump understood in ’87 what the Beltway eunuchs still deny: weakness invites the knife. Seize the fields, deny the revenue, and Iran’s proxies wither. History bears it out...Saddam learned it the hard way in ’91 when his oil infrastructure went up in flames. Military reality is merciless: control the energy arteries or watch your adversaries fund endless jihad. Trump grasped that before most generals did. Israel? They were fighting their own existential wars then...intifadas, Scuds, the same Iranian-backed Hezbollah scum. Any overlap was coincidence of shared enemies, not control. To claim otherwise is to regurgitate the Protocols of the Elders of Zion with a fresh coat of tinfoil. So spare me the venomous drivel, you keyboard jihadis and basement geopoliticians. Trump wasn’t controlled in ’87. He isn’t now. He never will be. He’s the force of nature that bends history...unowned, unbreakable, and utterly American. If you still don’t get it after forty years of proof, you never fucking will. And that’s a "you" problem, not a "him" problem. Get the fuck over it or get out of the fucking way. 🗡️💀⚖️

@GraceRandolph going on a right wing grifter’s podcast was such a bad look, he did not have to do that at all

Never punch down. Weir should have just said he had some cool ideas for a #StarTrek show Weir is not a pundit, he’s in the industry himself. It’s totally unprofessional and inappropriate for him to say something like this. If someone doesn’t understand that, they’re just making it clear they have no professional experience.

@GraceRandolph Hollywood is becoming more and more irrelevant by the day. Andy Weir is smart not to associate himself too closely to that dying industry.
