    Trump

    Trump’s Final Term Ends in: Unless nuclear war with Iran, China, etc. doesn't end America's reign of power first. Unless economic war with the whole world doesn't end America's reign of power first. Unless Big Macs, obesity and a sedentary lifestyle doesn't kill Trump first. Oh well it was a good run while it lasted.
  2. This was Trump's backup plan in case the USSC plan didn't work out. At least he and republicans have a backup plan, democrats not so much.

    Yes, the USSC always had the final say. But now there will never be dissenting opinions from lessor judges to challenge their kafkaesque decisions turning America to the far right.

    Trump

    TRUMP HAS BEEN CROWNED KING! In a major victory for President Trump, the court restricted the ability of federal judges to block his executive orders. "The 6-to-3 decision, written by Justice Amy Coney Barrett and split along ideological lines" 167 days into trump's presidency the doors have been thrown wide open. Get ready for Project 2025 on steroids courtesy Stephen Miller.

    And now

    Trump demands end to Netanyahu’s graft trial: ‘US saved Israel, now it’s going to save Bibi’ "In unprecedented intervention in Israeli justice system, US president slams criminal case against PM as a ‘ridiculous Witch Hunt,’ declares ‘THIS TRAVESTY CAN NOT BE ALLOWED’" The King has spoken, all hail the King.
  7. For myself the hypocrisy of US evangelical christians combined with Trump and their support of trump has festered this criticism. I recognize that one bad apple has spoiled the bunch. But the corruption of trump, his antithesis of everything christian paints everything. Most Christians are not evangelicals, most don't support trump or his policies.
  8. "Iran’s parliament voted on Wednesday to suspend all cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), effectively ending international oversight of the country’s nuclear program without formally withdrawing from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT)." This means full speed ahead on a trump bomb.

    And now

    "Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s strength and standing within the Trump administration is coming under question after the president twice publicly brushed off her testimony that Iran is not close to developing a nuclear weapon, and amid reports of tensions between the two. President Trump nominated Gabbard as his intelligence director despite some doubts from both parties, and her anti-war stance fits in with the MAGA movement’s aversion to getting the U.S. sucked into foreign conflicts." Above from five days ago. Two days ago "Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has flipped her stance on Iran after President Donald Trump nuked her intelligence as “wrong.”...“The dishonest media is intentionally taking my testimony out of context and spreading fake news as a way to manufacture division,” Gabbard wrote to her 600K followers. “America has intelligence that Iran is at the point that it can produce a nuclear weapon within weeks to months, if they decide to finalize the assembly.” Tow the MAGA line about lying for Trump and you're in. Tell the truth and you're out.

    And now

    "The Iranian Parliament has approved a measure to close the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil choke point, after the United States bombed three nuclear sites in Iran, according to Iranian state media on Sunday. While the Parliament has voted in favor of closing the strait, the final decision rests with the country’s Supreme National Security Council, according to state media." I don't think they will do it. Instead they will play the victim and fund the bomb program. They will play the long game. During the first Trump presidency there was a nuclear agreement which Iran was honouring. They had less than 500 centrifuges and never installed more during the entire term of that agreement. After trump tore up the agreement Iran dramatically expanded enrichment. After Trump ordered the assassination if the Iranian diplomat/general Qasem Soleimani they expanded it again. As of last week the goal was 15,000 centrifuges. There is all sorts of celebration in the Trump executive about the success of the mission but over 400kg of 60% enriched uranium exists in Iran. Sixty percent enrichment represents 90% of the work of enrichment. Most of the existing centrifuges are first generation models and Iran has now employed second and third generation ones. About 70% of its centrifuges were first generation ones of 12,000 total. All Iran has to do to get back on track is rebuild about 5,000 of its third generation models and with two weeks it could have the material for up to eight bombs. IMO the Mullahs will have a limited military response then get back to rebuilding centrifuges. This time the site will likely be a km underground. IMO Iran gets back to business and keeps revenge cold. It keeps getting upgraded Russian missile designs, keeps supplying Russia with drones and checks out the newest nuclear warhead designs that Putin will sell. Iran would likely have still only had the 500 centrifuges had Trump not reneged on the Obama agreement. Not killed its diplomat/general.
  11. Gabbard just didn't get the message. The IAEA has stated again and again that their monitoring will show if and when the bomb making decision gets made. They just stated again that no decision has been made. Even Netanyahu hasn't stated that the bomb making decision hasn't been made. He just states that they can start building it at any time. A former Israeli prime minister stated that since the war started that Iran hasn't made the decision to build the bomb. Trump is lying to peddle his message to his base. Nothing new here. His two week delay to make a decision is just him seeing which direction the flags are blowing in front of the WH.
  12. Speaking of which I'm surprised Trump doesn't have a dog as their loyalty is unmatched. I guess there is Eric?
  13. Well there is this: Three years left to limit warming to 1.5C, leading scientists warn and this: 2025 Doomsday Clock Announcement January 28, 2025 It is now 89 seconds to midnight and surely there must be something in the bible about whoreshipping false prophets, like:
  14. Hence the number of people that are "god fearing". How about the fake prophets spoiling it for the majority who live with pure intents?
  15. This worries me more: "It was supposed to be a routine appearance, a visit from the commander in chief to rally the troops, boost morale and celebrate the Army's 250th-birthday week, which culminates with a Washington, D.C., parade slated for Saturday. Instead, what unfolded Tuesday at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, bore little resemblance to the customary visit from a president and defense secretary. There, President Donald Trump unleashed a speech laced with partisan invective, goading jeers from a crowd of soldiers positioned behind his podium -- blurring the long-standing and sacrosanct line between the military and partisan politics. As Trump viciously attacked his perceived political foes, he whipped up boos from the gathered troops directed at California leaders, including Gov. Gavin Newsom -- amid the president's controversial move to deploy the National Guard and Marines against protesters in Los Angeles -- as well as former President Joe Biden and the press. The soldiers roared with laughter and applauded Trump's diatribe in a shocking and rare public display of troops taking part in naked political partisanship." Trump never misses a chance to spread division.
  16. I was raised as a Catholic altar boy and I make a clear distinction between American evangelicals and real Christianity. Iranian Mullahs are a perversion of the will of any just God just as Trump is a follower of Jebus. There are many loyal Christians, Mother Teresa a shining example "Mother Teresa is perhaps best known for the establishment of the Missionaries of Charity in 1950. With a humble beginning in Kolkata, India, this religious congregation expanded globally, becoming a beacon of hope for the poor, sick, and destitut" and "Catholic Charities USA is the national membership entity that provides resources and support to individual agencies throughout the United States. On the border, it is Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley, Laredo, San Antonio, and San Diego that are doing most of the sheltering work with asylum seekers".
  17. Thanks, The religious fanatics in Iran may have other ideas. Just like the Houthiis, Putin, Hamas, etc. the sacrifices of the public is secondary to ideology. After chanting "death to Israel, death to America" for forty five years peace or a treaty may be illusionary. American evangelical Christians are all worked up about destroying Iran. To some Christian Zionists, a showdown between Israel and Iran is the fulfillment of a crucial Biblical prediction A sign celebrates U.S. President Donald Trump and Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee in central Jerusalem on May 7.
  18. Three carrier battle groups and a refuelling A/C wing to the Iranian area. Obviously trump never learnt any lessons from his victory/defeat over the Houthis. In other news "The US bombing campaign of Yemen under Donald Trump led to the deaths of almost as many civilians in two months as in the previous 23 years of US attacks on Islamists and militants in the country. An analysis of Operation Rough Rider by the monitoring group Airwars has concluded that 224 civilians were killed between March and the end of the campaign in May, compared with 258 between 2002 and 2024."
  19. How long will it take for trump to say something stupid and derogatory about President Carter? Or has he done it already.
  20. Isn't there still time?
  21. ChatGPT can salvage your life, so there is hope.
  22. Yeah, just 31 days and he will have the power to send in the marines. in other news "The Danish government has announced a huge boost in defence spending for Greenland, hours after US President-elect Donald Trump repeated his desire to purchase the Arctic territory. Danish Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen said the package was a "double digit billion amount" in krone, or at least $1.5bn" American hegemony becomes dominant again.
  23. I take it that Deckker has got under your skin a bit?
