If you want to confuse your enemy, read the Art of War. If you want to confuse yourself, read the Art of the Deal. It looks like this senile madman is about to start a nuclear war.

TLDR - Given that the UAE has repeatedly asserted its right to carry out retaliatory strikes, it is likely that the downed Wing Loong II belonged this state.

Only Trump will know which company gets to insider trade ahead of public announcements for new facility construction. It’s all a con, and drug prices will surge as tariffs get passed down to us Americans with empty wallets.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurers will drop coverage for essential life-saving medications they currently guarantee, while non-critical drugs will begin vanishing from coverage lists across the board.

God help anyone without insurance. It’s a complete disaster, and Trump’s already raking in billions a month off the American people. Another day another grift.

Anyone, and I truly mean anyone, who couldn’t see that he is completely driven by selfish reasons (ego/wealth/power) has Fetterman level brain damage.

At this point, I can’t even communicate with people that support trump. They are incapable of measured, honest, logical thought. We now have a full-blown cult that has grown to a frightening scale. c’est la vie USA.

Rape… again? 🤷🏻

An innocent child will serve a lifetime of trauma while the pedo served only 6 months. Making America Great Again.

Always makes me laugh when the idiots that want to get rid of it… vote by mail.

🤣

Here’s a list of all the commercially available US made routers below

Good hunting !

Nice mix of links, always up for more independent global perspectives.

Iran media has already refuted the claims. How many times does Trump think we are to believe his lies, this moron doesn’t have a plan except keep the markets from tanking.

Friday’s press gaggle. Barely exaggerated: at 12:03 PM, President Trump told reporters he wanted a ceasefire with Iran. At 12:05 he declared victory. At 12:07 he announced he was sending Marines. At 12:08 he said no boots on the ground. At 12:11 he said he did not want a ceasefire. At 12:16 he declared victory again. At 12:17 he asked for a ceasefire. At 12:23 he told NATO they were cowards. At 12:29 he said Iran was begging for a ceasefire. At 12:31 he said everything was perfect. At 12:36 he said $500 oil was a good thing. At 12:37 he demanded Iran open Hormuz. At 12:39 he said Hormuz was never closed. At 12:41 he said the US was not at war with Iran. At 12:42 he declared victory in Iran.

By 3:43 PM he told CBS he doesn’t want a ceasefire. By 5:13 PM - 13 minutes after futures markets closed for the weekend, in a coincidence that should be studied in every securities fraud textbook - he posted on Truth Social that the US is “getting very close to meeting our objectives as we consider winding down our great Military efforts”. The S&P reversed more than 1% in seconds. QQQ had already surged 1.1% in the 80 minutes before the announcement, with call options flowing in at a pace that suggests someone, somewhere, had an itinerary.

What a great compendium, such a great book and I believe (correct me if I’m wrong) a Netflix series? I’d add to such stellar publications as “The Flavor Bible”,

https://www.amazon.com/Flavor-Bible-Essential-Creativity-Imaginative/dp/0316118400 the art of mixing flavor and spice, acid etc. Taken from the wisdom of America’s most imaginative chefs.

Definitely nothing bad could happen from a deranged narcissist having a personal army with the budget more than the Marines, I mean “Nothing bad can happen. It can only good happen” right?

It appears to be true with fact checking here

“The claim is indeed true that Iran has offered ‘full right and freedom’ to transit the strategic waterway if Arab and European nations sever ties with the US and Israel, as per state broadcaster IRIB.”

This statement was made live on BBC but the report seems to be true, here are some links.

Perhaps look up Uncanny Valley. It is similar in ways to what you are describing.

I read somewhere that Iran can close the strait without a full-scale naval engagement using selective drone strikes and harassing vessels, Iran triggers a spike in maritime insurance premiums which will choke shipping companies. Also because of the narrow width of the strait, also shallow, Iran can use mines, they have both simple contact mines to sophisticated “smart” mines, apparently they possesses one of the largest naval mine inventories in the world.

Is there something wrong with Standard Notes that I should be aware of? It hasn’t been mentioned here. It has the AES-256 encryption standard, there is a free tier, it’s open source and it undergoes regular security audits.
