On Trump's Speech:
I don't think Trump will announce an attack on Kharg or the Gulf Islands at 9 pm ET.
Bc it would be 0500 AM in the PG.
Our ops never start that late.
The latest he could announce an offensive op underway is 6-7 pm
He is going to declare all "Military Objectives" met and TACO.

Let’s be real here. Europe has spent decades freeloading on American security. Even now, with every NATO member finally hitting the 2% GDP target in 2025.
But beyond the financial contributions, the real rupture is philosophical and the Iran crisis has shown a spotlight on it.
Europe worships process. Endless committees, consultations, and “predictability.” Macron actually calls it a virtue. For Trump, this is paralysis as his style is to articulate a threat, fix a target, and act. The Americans are men of conviction and purpose. Europe on the other hand lives by bureaucratic liturgy and in high-minded abstractions.
Sure, Americans might make mistakes when acting. But Europe never considers what the costs of not acting actually are.
Just look at how their nations are doing on various fronts, especially on the border crisis, and you see the same cancerous rot that undergirds their foreign policy approach play out domestically. It's the same problem on a different scale.
Iran is currently holding the Strait of Hormuz hostage, choking 20% of global oil and spiking prices past $100 a barrel. Meanwhile, the regime is bleeding from strikes, its nuclear ambitions are still alive despite degraded capability, and its proxies are firing missiles at allies and oil tankers. If this isn’t a clear and present danger to the global economy - of which Europe is a part - then I don’t know what is.
Yet when Washington asked to use European bases to finish the job - bases the US has defended for generations, the response was hesitation and hand-wringing. The US did strike from RAF Fairford, but only after warnings that British soil could become a “legitimate target.”
If you cannot agree that a theocratic regime with eschatological ambitions who have shown no restraint in hitting out at Gulf countries and threatening the world’s energy jugular is an enemy worth confronting, then what, exactly, are we allies about?
Europe loves to preen about being tough on Russia. They issue condemnations and speeches and slap sanctions that hardly work to cripple the Russian economy.
Now here was a chance to do something concrete: let the Americans use the bases they already pay for, help clear the Strait, and actually degrade the Iranian war machine that arms Moscow’s proxies. Turmp didn’t ask for boots on the ground or any kind of more offensive action. All he wanted was permission to operate from the infrastructure America has underwritten for decades.
They couldn’t even manage that.
So can you blame the Americans for seeing NATO for what it is? A paper-tiger alliance that expects Washington to bleed and pay while Brussels and London convenes and deliberates.
If Europe refuses to treat Iran as the threat it is while happily letting American power keep the Strait open and the lights on, then the alliance is already dead. Trump is simply stating the obvious and the Americans are becoming very reluctant to subsidize the European delusion any longer.

LARRY JOHNSON PREDICTS: US GROUND INVASION OF IRAN ISLANDS THIS WEEKEND
Ex CIA Larry Johnson cuts through the noise with a chilling assessment based on troop movements and force deployments right now. Trump has not backed down out of fear. He is simply playing the same games he has played before to lull the Iranians into complacency. A major ground attack is coming fast, and it is aimed straight at the heart of the Strait of Hormuz.
THE INVASION TIMELINE
➡️ The United States will launch a ground attack this weekend.
➡️ If bad weather hits, it may be pushed back until Monday or Tuesday.
➡️ If the weather clears, expect it sometime Friday or Saturday.
THE TARGETS SELECTED
➡️ They will attack either Car Island or Keshum Island.
➡️ Car Island is one of the most important gas production sites for the Iranians.
THE DEPLOYMENT DETAILS
➡️ Massive special operation assets have already been poured into the region.
➡️ Right now they are deployed in Israel and Jordan.
➡️ They will be forward deployed prior to the operation to Aluded Air Force Base in Qatar or possibly Prince Sultan Air Force Base in Saudi Arabia.
➡️ Aluded would be the more likely location.
THE STATED MISSION
➡️ The attack is ostensibly to open the Strait of Hormuz.
THE INEVITABLE FAILURE
➡️ It will fail.
➡️ They may actually take control of Keshum Island.
➡️ But then what?
➡️ Iran still has drones, submarines, underwater drones that are maneuverable, and missiles in the cliffs that line the strait.
➡️ The United States is not sending enough military force to actually open the strait and keep it open.
THE DEADLY CONSEQUENCE
➡️ What they are creating is a big fat target that Iran is going to attack.
➡️ This will inflict significant casualties on some of the United States most elite forces.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Larry Johnson’s assessment is blunt and final: this ground invasion is nothing more than a show of force that will turn America’s best troops into sitting ducks with no path to lasting success or control of the strait.
America is about to learn the hard way what happens when you underestimate Iran.

@FalkenbergChad @Bone348 What are you saying ? Don’t build the pipelines and have lower debt ? Then complain we don’t have money coming g in from pipelines and we risk our sovereignty due to risk from us? Pipelines have been built by the Feds.

This is the mindset of Canadian Conservatives I hate...
The govt should somehow never be ambitious and drive things, we shouldn't have an industrial strategy or DIS, just cut taxes and privatize.
That's the mentality that killed the Avro Arrow and look at us now...

Pierre Poilievre on the Toronto–Quebec City High-Speed Rail Network: "Conservatives oppose the $90b Liberal-Alto train ... a future Conservative government will cancel this $90b boondoggle altogether."
English

@MKennedy2050 @jkenney And they ask for more money cuz they don’t use it for healthcare. And then they spend elsewhere ir cut revenue streams like Doug Ford on alcohol sales and license renewal. It’s pure corruption
English

Absolutely right.
How about we build some pipelines first so we can afford luxuries like this?

@MKennedy2050 @jkenney Ok where’s the money ? It is not being spent on healthcare. They are starving the system for privatization. The feds. Red direct funds to hospitals directly. Lot of conservative premiers are corrupt. Paying back their
Corporate donors.

@Cropes16 @WatchMyReview His record speaks for itself. No accomplishments an left the team handcuffed as he overpaid tied his hands with the cap an this let go of free agents and then made bad trades giving up draft choices and those same players walked. He did a great job. As good as Tre.

@tml_2122 @WatchMyReview It’s pretty widely reported that Dubas didn’t have full control. Shanahan had final say and used that power, big reason why Dubas is in Pit now. I’d take Dubas back with him having full control in a heartbeat.

@KobeissiLetter It’s just market manipulation by Trump. When will people stop believing anything this pedo says?

BREAKING: The US and Iran are discussing a potential deal that would involve a ceasefire in exchange for Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz, per Axios.
Details include:
1. China and Pakistan reportedly presented a peace initiative along those lines on Tuesday
2. Earlier today, Ian's Foreign Ministry called Trump's claims that Iran has requested a ceasefire to be "false and baseless."
3. US officials have cautioned that it was unclear whether a deal could be reached
The nonstop headlines continue.
English

He is going to either:
1. declare victory
2. declare war
The markets are telling us it’s going to be number 1

@ThePoniExpress Dubas is a fraud. No accomplishments on 10 years except fucking on the Leafs with great culture and trading away talent cuz he k repaid on 4 guys and then got rid of draft choices for stiffs to make a run with the great talent and culture

@WatchMyReview @ThePoniExpress Wait when they asked for a raise and he overpays them.
