Prof. Jeffrey Sachs on Trump: dark triad, frontotemporal dementia, total institutional collapse. "We have a one-man rule, and the one man happens to be crazy."

@_Classical_Lib_ @HardCounte @v8jeep360 They are not terrorist groups, they are resistance groups opposing the occupation and genocide of Palestine by Israel. They only exist because of Israel's actions.

I apologize then.... Until recently, Iran didn't directly attack others in the ME. It uses its proxies, "Axis of Resistance," to do its bidding. Hezbollah (Lebanon), Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (Gaza), Popular Mobilization Forces (Iraq), Houthis (Yemen). These are all well-documented terrorist groups in the ME. Nearly every GCC nation acknowledges this.

JD Vance is lying here. The NPT gave every signatory the right to enrich uranium, and it has been the position of every administration -- including Trump in 2025 -- that Iran has the right to enrich to 3.67%. So yes, Trump did just change to Israel's view: zero enrichment.👇

🇰🇲 The first test of Trump's blockade may already be underway. The Elpis, a Comoros-flagged oil tanker sanctioned by the US in 2025 for handling Iranian petroleum, appears to be challenging the blockade in the Strait of Hormuz. Shadow fleet vessels have nothing to lose. They're already sanctioned.

@HoldenBurbage @EssexPR 😂

@EssexPR Defo Brooksey! If he succeeds with this, NO ONE can say he hasn't played a blinder in getting things back to exactly how things were before he started the war. Apart from the dead of course. But he is Jesus now so you never know. Regards, Are you OK?

If Iran cave here on this, Donald Trump will have pulled off an absolute masterclass…

@TheOtherSideRu @Alex_Oloyede2 👏👏👏

🇭🇺 Hungary's election winner Magyar — key statements: - Budapest will continue buying Russian oil - Will not participate in the EU loan to Ukraine - Opposes accelerated EU accession for Ukraine - Hopes the EU will lift sanctions on Russia after the war - Demands Kiev resolve the language law issue and allow Hungary's minority to legally use Hungarian

President Trump brilliantly calls Iran’s bluff — with his own Strait of Hormuz blockade nypost.com/2026/04/12/opi…

Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us. Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage. You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail. Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates. Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you. And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again. And you're calling Greenland poorly run? Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no. "NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years. And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess. So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”

@BowesChay 🤮

Cannot handle the cringe

@StefanParker44 @illAlienTrader @pati_marins64 Here you go Einstein. x.com/i/status/20426…

@illAlienTrader @pati_marins64 Sure… but not in the middle of a war

The Blockade of the Blockade If the greatest pressure on the American government comes from the low amount of oil on the market, then another blockade would tend to push prices even higher and could become catastrophic if the other strait is closed or if there is a new attack on Saudi facilities. It’s like a wrestler suffering a leg lock who then applies another lock on the same leg, but higher up, aiming to decrease the pain of the first lock. The idea that Iran will stop exporting oil and have its economy collapse is real, but not in the short term. Meanwhile, the political and economic pressure on Trump, who faces elections this year, tends to intensify in the short term. This is not a war that Iran did not expect. On the contrary, it prepared for it and certainly has lines of credit with the Chinese. Moreover, in the face of any blockade, it can continue to maintain basic commercial flows through the Iran-Asia railway. This is a military and diplomatic war for professionals, not for amateurs.

He made a big effort by forcing a connection between his wife's right to skydive and Iran's right to enrichment. It seems Dr. Ghalibaf had a very difficult time in the negotiations.

And here it is - ethnically cleansing and now stealing whole swathes of Lebanon. It's the same playbook every time by the Jewish terrorists (settlers). A threat to everyone. Savagely violent. Religion fanatics. Armed to the teeth. Cheered on by the UK/IS/EU

@Suzierizzo1 Vile

Describe Jared Kushner in one word! 🤬

"Miss Meloni, you're looking NERVOUS!"

The Iranian delegation escorted by 9 Jets of Pakistan AirForce has reached Iran safely.

In all my life I have not seen so much manufacturing of consent for a nuclear strike And all for the preservation of a psychotic little apartheid state called “Israel”

@cast75094 @unknown_broker @PatrickWCutler And also the most expensive to extract, hence no US companies wanting to touch them.

@unknown_broker @PatrickWCutler You’re not factoring in the largest oil reserves in the world … Venezuela

By securing oil in Venezuela and blocking the Strait of Hormuz, Trump has effectively taken control of the world's oil supply forcing countries to buy oil from the USA. An absolute Masterclass by Trump.

@PatrickWCutler You do know the US uses more oil than it produces therefore it can't supply the shortfall.

❌Our new film won't be broadcast on the BBC. But will it be watched in The Hague❓ @IntlCrimCourt We present the first documentary about Britain's complicity in the Gaza genocide - on the UK's spy flights for Israel. Watch full film 👉youtu.be/0fk3t28TiAc

@StartWhere_U_R @BowesChay Grok literally says chronic shortages!!

What supplies are you claiming they are low on? Grok: "No, there are no reports of widespread riots in Venezuela right now specifically over food and medicine shortages. Recent protests (April 9-10, 2026) in Caracas involved public sector workers, retirees, and unions marching for higher wages/pensions amid 600%+ inflation, where basics like food cost far more than salaries. Police used tear gas and blocked some marches, with minor clashes reported. Chronic shortages and high living costs persist from the economic crisis, but demonstrations focus on pay, not looting or unrest over empty shelves."

Pressure is building in Venezuela. Unlike China, the USA cannot fully supply Venezuela with the goods it needs. America lacks the production capacity and the supply networks required to support the entire country. The key issue is thay even with American sanctions in place, Venezuela under Maduro was still able to trade with China. They exchanged oil for products, medicines, and other essential goods on a barter basis. After relations with China broke down, inflation exploded. It reached 649.5 percent by March 2026. The International Monetary Fund expects it to go above 682 percent by the end of the year. Right now Venezuelas oil money is being sent to a special account controlled by the US Treasury. Remember that the United States has also essentially seized Venezuelas gold reserves. These moves are speeding up the collapse of the national currency. The situation is spiraling out of control.
