Iran is a terrible regime and has done a lot terrible, terrible things. But credit where credit is due: they are kicking ass at trolling Trump these days.

Well thanks @americanair.bsky.social. Our 9:50am flight has now been delayed until 5:00pm. Thanks for screwing us over while we’re trying to our son to his national gymnastics competition.

This message of peace brought to you by the “Hey, you’re all going to die” lady.

This is the energy we need to push the weak Dem leaders who care more about opinion polls and consultant PowerPoint presentation than what their voters want.

I’n sure this is because JD Vance is such an amazing negotiator that he got a peace deal done in like 15 minutes. It definitely isn’t because the talks were always a sham and the US and Israel were always going to start up the war again.

God. In a work meeting about using AI here and the absolute gargling of AI’s balls is ridiculous. “AI is amazing and will revolutionize everything and there is no downside and it won’t replace jobs, just boring tasks!” It is actively disgusting. I wish I was closer to retirement.

And here’s how the Dems will lose 2028: by once again listening to the consultant class instead of voters. 2026 will be a Blue Tsunami and Dem leadership will wrongly believe it’s because people like them and their policies, not that people are just voting against Trump. And they will fuck up 2028.

I’m shocked, I say…SHOCKED!

What’s the over/under on when Netanyahu launches another round of war crimes in Lebanon or Iran to make sure any peace deal is stopped and his corruption trial stays on hold? Like noon Eastern time?

So Iran agreed to open the Strait of Hormuz for everyone but themselves? Now I’m not saying that I don’t believe the pathological liar who has near weekly tried to manipulate the markets by posting lies…no, wait…that is EXACTLY what I’m saying.

Jared Golden (Maine) was the lone Democrat to oppose it. And Warren Davidson (Ohio) abstained by voting “present”. Isn’t it the job of House leadership to whip the votes they need…assuming they actually want a vote to pass. 🤔

@schumer.senate.gov is eagerly and happily funding genocide. He needs to not just be removed as senate leader, but he needs to be removed from office, too. @democrats.senate.gov

NEW: A new pre-print study offers the first causal evidence that outsourcing reasoning tasks to AI can rapidly erode users' independent performance AND their will to persist despite difficulty. "People’s persistence drops... they’re also not willing to try without AI.” futurism.com/artificial-i...

“The Pope doesn’t understand theology” is a bold take for a non-Catholic, but for a (supposed) Catholic? Insane. Vance is just such a pathetic loser in life.

At this point, Trump might as well be pushing for countries to go back to steam locomotives and horse-drawn carriages.

I expect we’re going to see a lot of this in 2028: newly anti-Trump Republicans running as Democrats to try to sneak in because of the “blue wave”. And I’m also sure that Democratic leadership is going to be fine with it because “it’ll bring in moderate Republican voters!”

And I’m willing to bet that Trump and/or the White House did not even tip her.

Okay, so the most corrupt administration in history says they are blockading the Strait of Hormuz (and others) starting at 10am Eastern time today. I wonder when the TACO will come this week (Tuesday?) and how much insider trading we’ll see that day just before the announcement.

Are you paying attention Democrats? This is the sort of talk and action we need from the next Democratic president. Leaders - like @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social should be - need to start championing this language right now.

Good thing Trump set the precedent of presidents being allowed to tear down government buildings with no hearings or Congressional approvals. Because if this piece of shit gets built, the next Democratic president better immediately tear it down.

Well that was a complete bust. The @la28games.bsky.social are already sold out of all men’s gymnastics sessions (the only event we were interested in). Just a complete joke. And no word on when/if more tickets will be available or if I can buy them since my slot is over. #olympics

I think I speak for most all Americans when I say that I would much prefer Hannibal, BA, Face, and Murdoch negotiating this ceasefire than the corrupt idiots they are actually sending.

And Democratic leadership is confused as to why their approval ratings are in the tank. Is this the only reason? No. But giving military support to a country actively committing genocide? Democratic voters don’t want that. Hell, the DNC won’t even condemn Israel for committing genocide.

Tomorrow’s Friday, so we all expect Trump to announce after the markets have closed that the ceasefire is over and make another threat with deadline to destroy them (which he’ll then walk back Monday morning before the markets open), right?

Again, this unraveled a lot quicker than even I - a huge skeptic of anythingTrump and/or Netanyahu say - thought it would.

Wow. That took less time than even I was expecting.

So what are the chances that the genocidal war criminal Netanyahu abides by the ceasefire and doesn’t launch an attack on Iran or Lebanon over the next two weeks? I don’t think very good.

So what are the odds that over the next two weeks the markets shoot up and oil prices go back down to $90 a barrel and Trump tears up the ceasefire because he’s an idiot with no object permanence. I’d put some money on that Kalshi action.

So Iran is saying they are going to charge $2 million per ship. While it was open, there was typically around 100 ships per day. So $200 million per day. Even if they share it 50/50, in one year, they will have brought in $36.5 billion. Great job, Trump.

🌮🌮🌮

Has Iran agreed to open the Strait of Hormuz as part of the ceasefire deal? Because nothing I’ve seen from Iran indicates they have. Probably Trump just making shit up again. And anyone think the US or Israel will not attack over the next two weeks?

If Iran hasn’t agreed to the terms of this ceasefire, then this is merely a unilateral de-escalation by Trump disguised as a deal. That would put Trump in an even weaker position in the war/negotiations because he will have demonstrated to Iran that his threats are a TACO bluff.

What are the odds that Iran comes out tonight and says “We have had no conversations or agreements with Trump”? Also, I give it 48 hours before he starts threatening to “reign hell” on Iran again.

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was not allowing guys to say “re****ed” and “p***y”.

Looks like a bunch of Democrats are finally speaking up about Trump’s threat to eradicate a civilization. That came hours ago. I shouldn’t be surprised by the (mostly) milquetoast statements or how long it took them to come out. But I still am a little bit.

Between all his rhetoric and threats and Iran’s staunch refusal to be intimidated or make a deal, Trump has pretty much backed himself into a corner. I just don’t see how he can TACO out of today’s threat unless Iran capitulates, which I don’t see happening.

I’m honestly worried that the US and/or Israel will use tactical nukes today. Trump doesn’t care and honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if, with all these mystery treatments, he knows he’s got a short time left and wants to burn everything down.

Unlike the president or his corrupt, illegal administration, I participated in democracy today. Vote all the bastards out and put them on trial. #vote

Iran has no reason to back down because it can’t trust the US or Israel and it’s a fight for their regime’s existence. Trump can’t back down because it will show he’s weak and a loser. Netanyahu won’t back down because he’s a racist, genocidal sociopath. The Middle East is going to get a lot worse.

That’s certainly one way - and a pretty effective way - to get public sentiment on your side, Iran.

And there’s the TACO. How predictable.

If Iranian cyber threat abilities are as strong as people are worried about, why wouldn’t they immediately try to cripple the US power and/or water grid(s) if the deranged war criminal Trump goes thru with his promise of attacking civilian infrastructure?

Ah yes, money and war. Two things that Jesus was always pushing for in the Bible.

It’s absolutely crazy to me that the President of the United States threatened - on Easter Sunday - to destroy another country and potentially implied nuclear bombs are on the the table, and…nothing. No massive news alerts or discussions or action by Democrats. Just crickets.

I can’t imagine that Iran would back down at this point. Why would they? Not only is this an existential crisis for their regime, the US under Trump has never once *not* gone back on any deal they made. So will Trump TACO out or is he so unhinged that he’ll go nuclear? And would anyone stop him?

I wonder if it’s just a coincidence that this lines up with the April elections. 🤔

Can’t wait to see Mike Johnson claiming he hasn’t seen the tweet and doesn’t know anything about it.

The whole justification for this illegal war with Iran was (the lie) that an attack was imminent. So with this tweet, I guess anything Iran does between now and Tuesday is completely justified.
