@samswey Both the US & Israel are getting their asses kicked like NO modern adversary has done before. History will reveal Iran (& Trump) were the final catalysts in an accelerated collapse of the American empire which was built on slavery, settler colonialism, & violent white supremacy.

BREAKING NEWS: A federal judge has just fully shut down construction of the Jeffery Epstein Memorial Ballroom and Grooming Facility at the White House and republicans are big mad. #Ballroom #Epstein

Trump tried to bully the Supreme Court today by attending the hearing about his racist executive order to end Birthright citizenship. Trump is the first president in US history to attend a supreme court hearing about his policies. rawstory.com/trump-26766502…

April fools doesn’t hit the same living in a misinformation epidemic

If the 14th amendment was only meant to protect the “babies of slaves” then the 2nd Amendment is only meant to protect the right to own a musket.

(We fucking told you) Iran says Trump's statements on Tehran requesting ceasefire are false and baseless. reuters.com/world/middle-e…

I’ll be at the Apollo with @official_jcc in November, doctor’s orders. Trivia: the line ‘never leave the bookies with a smile on your face’ from The Heron is a bit of advice he gave me last year x

Just like that

But Ted Bundy was able to represent himself , cross examine his victims and propose to a deranged fan while in the courtroom

It's amazing how many veterans still kneel to Private Bone Spurs.

@bonchieredstate Yes!

The East Wing is already gone. What exactly is the plan here? To just leave a half finished ballroom because some lib group sued out of spite?

Someone told me this is a photo from the #NoKings rally. This is absolutely false. There were also white women at that rally.

As the Supreme Court is poised to rule on Trump’s request to end birthright citizenship - it might be a good time to mention the fact that Ivana was not a US citizen when Don Jr, Ivanka & Eric were born, and Melania was not a US citizen when Barron was born.

Copying Pinochet, who closed sociology and other departments saying they were unserious and laboratories of Marxism.

Nothing Will Be the Same for a Long Time The world we knew has changed and will remain different for years to come. We were still recovering from the effects of the pandemic and the war in Ukraine when the new war, started by the United States and Israel, struck hard at the infrastructure of Iran, the Persian Gulf countries, Israel itself, and Oman. These bombings were not just military actions, they delivered a deep blow to the global economy. Oil, natural gas, fertilizers, semiconductors, chemicals, metals, and even helium saw their supply drastically reduced. Recovery will be slow and painful. The Price of Destruction The damage to the region’s metallurgical infrastructure was massive and concentrated on strategically vital points. In Iran, the Mobarakeh Steel Company complex suffered the collapse of blast furnace structures and critical cooling systems in its direct reduction units and electric arc furnaces. Reconstruction costs are estimated at US$ 6 billion, with a recovery timeline of 2 to 3 years. In Bahrain, the impact focused on Aluminium Bahrain, where the attack severely damaged reduction lines and logistics, causing structural losses of US$ 2.5 billion. In the United Arab Emirates, strikes against Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) facilities in Abu Dhabi and Dubai resulted in estimated structural damage of US$ 4.2 billion. This coordinated destruction in the three countries created a major gap in the global supply of primary metals, sharply raising operational costs and commodity prices worldwide. In the oil and gas sector, the destruction was even more brutal. The Kharg Island Terminal, Iran’s main crude oil export point, lost docking berths, pipelines, and giant storage tanks. Estimated cost: US$ 12 billion. The Asaluyeh and South Pars complex, the heart of gas and condensate processing, had fractionation towers, heat exchangers, and control systems incinerated, another US$ 10 billion in losses. The Abadan and Isfahan refineries, essential for gasoline and diesel production, were also badly damaged. When pipelines, gas lines, and pumping stations are added, the total cost for Iran’s energy sector alone reaches US$ 30.5 billion. The biggest problem is not just the money. It’s logistics. Iran needs to import turbines, special valves, and compressors that have long global production queues. Without easy access to Western suppliers, returning to pre-war levels could take 3 to 4 years. Israel also paid a heavy price. Its technology and chemical centers were hit. Semiconductor plants, such as Intel’s facility in Kiryat Gat, lost clean rooms and precision equipment. Chemical complexes in Haifa and desalination plants suffered significant damage. The total estimated cost is US$ 10 billion, with recovery times ranging from 6 months to 3 years. In Iraq, the already fragile electricity and port infrastructure lost high-voltage substations, cranes at Umm Qasr port, and grain silos. Approximate cost: US$ 5 billion. Recovery is expected to take 1 to 2 years. In the United Arab Emirates, attacks hit the Fujairah Industrial Zone, fuel tanks, the port that bypasses the Strait of Hormuz, and key gas fields and refineries such as Ruwais, Habshan, and Shah. Physical infrastructure costs exceed US$ 10 billion, with timelines from 6 months to 2 years. Kuwait and Bahrain faced direct impacts on ships and refineries. Kuwait lost a large tanker and saw its facilities operating at minimum capacity. Estimated losses: US$ 3 billion. Bahrain had its Sitra refinery damaged and pipelines affected, with repair costs around US$ 800 million and a timeline of 9 to 14 months. Oman was also hit, although on a smaller scale than its neighbors. Drone and missile strikes targeted key ports, damaging oil storage tanks and silos at Salalah, Duqm, and Sohar. Salalah, a major container and fuel hub outside the Strait of Hormuz, suffered fires in storage tanks and limited damage to cranes. Read More in my Substack: open.substack.com/pub/global21/p…

@MintPressNews I was staying at a hotel in Baghdad. My 5th or 6th day new hotel guests -Aussie & Dutch soldiers- turned up in the hallway, fully kitted out, on their way to work. I checked out the next day. The hotel was nearly destroyed a few weeks later in a car bombing and insurgent assault.

Much Of The US’s 40,000 Soldiers Stationed In The Gulf Retreat To Hotels According to a recent New York Times article, most US military bases have been forced to evacuate, causing those amongst some 40,000 soldiers stationed in the Persian Gulf to find alternative shelter. Iran has responded by accusing the American military of using civilians as human shields.
