White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt held an impromptu press availability today at the White House. The primary focus of the questioning relates to the status in Iran.
Mrs Leavitt notes there is an internal political fracture within Iran between hardline religious extremists and moderate religious extremists, and President Trump is giving those two factions space to come to a unified negotiation approach. WATCH:
.

IOW, Trump will let them eventually kill each other while their money dries up, they can’t pay zealots to be zealots, their families suffer, and then those people also kill those causing the problem….eventually they kill each other while Persians watch until the balance turns then the Persians are once again in control of Persia.
Maybe, if not happening fast enough a few bridges and power plants get blown up.
It’s not rocket science.
Yes, not rocket science.
More like wishful thinking.
Ok, X misses you.
Before you go, what was the best point made, in your opinion on the PW protected post by SD?
15 days until they have to start shutting down wells. Once closed, they’re likely not to reopen. Bringing a well back online is really hard after the flow stops.
If Iran stops pumping out oil it might permanently damage the oil reservoirs.
If Iran loses petroleum revenues (82% of Iran’s exports) Iran could become like Afghanistan – poor and controlled by fanatics.
The problem is, the fanatics don’t see a downside in that outcome.
These DBag influencers keep wanting to know a timeline for a deal….meanwhile Iran is losing $1/2 billon a day in oil income…
It’s ALL about strangling the snake and bleeding it dry…. WELL DONE PDJT….Carry on
“Mrs Leavitt notes there is an internal political fracture within Iran between hardline religious extremists and moderate religious extremists”
How does that go now?
The difference between a hardline religious [Islamic] extremist and a moderate religious [Islamic] extremist is that the latter will cheer as the former cuts your head off.
You people are insufferable- you literally said wishful thinking on my post, then say this….
C’mon man, Panican better. Do better. We deserve better BS.
Ignore the putz.
Screwed up my username logging in.
Wondering what the difference is between a ‘hard-line EXTREMIST’ and a ‘moderate EXTREMIST’???
1/2 of the chest explosives
6 of 1; 5.9 of the other.
You missed the overall point; think about it.
I’ve been in the ME, so, just think about it.
John has taken his Baghdad Bob routine to the next blog. Another “one day” wonder….
So many lately; where’s Ray? Oh, lost.
Gracias
De nada….
De nalgas or naches is funnier.
It’s a question. 🙂
I daresay, legitimately so!
I’m still scratching my head trying to figure out how Fake News are still able to retain their licenses. The amount of BS and treachery coming from their propaganda is ample enough to shut them down.
$$$$$$$$$
I call it sedition.
Excellent discussion of Iran vulnerabilities here:

PDJT understands this.
I stopped reading after 3 “F” bombs in the first paragraph.
I cannot take anyone seriously that needs repeated profanity to express themself in regards to serious topics. Stand up comedians excepted.
My adadage-Using the F word is the crying out of a weak mind for some attention.
I really admire comedians that can be side-splitting hilarious without using profanity.
Tim Conway and Carol Burnett…:)
I did not really want to start a list and throw this thread off topic, which is why I omitted my favorites.
Too late…
You forgot Harvey Corman
Johnathan Winters and Sid Caesar.
On the opposite end of such crap is Andrew Dice Clay! Can’t stand that a-hole! He is one ugly entity!!!
As a Christmas gift several years ago, I took my brother‘s family to Brian Reagan. He was outstanding.
If you’ve never seen “stupid in school“ you’ve got to see the routine on YouTube
Jeff Foxworthy for one….
Madea is pretty good, too….
Yup.. I don’t even say it when I hit my thumb with the hammer 🙂 darn lol
Many thanks to you and all the above for supporting non-obscene, non-coital, and non-scatological vocabulary!
It is indeed a sign of a poor vocabulary and a sad, pathetic desire to sound tough and be “one of the guys.”
Concerning hilarity without insipid coprolalia:
Carol Channing Tells a Story!
I have a caveat to your adage. If it is used within a word, it can definitely convey urgency or danger much better than the unaltered version of the word.
Examples:
“Ee-bleeping-mediately” (or its synonym, “right bleeping now”… but that actually violates my caveat rule)
“un-bleeping-believable.”
Not only the F bombs, but the rant in a stream of babble that could disseminate the same information with quite a few less sentences and more coherence.
The breadth and range of knowledge this woman has on ANY question is mind-blowing.
It’s good to know she’s on our team.
Love you Karoline
It’s really a shame she has to spell the situation out for the dimwits of the media.. if they were paying attention the uncontrolled military threat would be obvious.
They aren’t dimwits, so much as they are trolls.
They keep hoping to get that gotcha moment and she just keeps slapping them down.
Just like the insufferable “journalist” at yesterday’s briefing by Blanche and Patel that keep hounding Patel off topic.
I’m so tired of trolls.
We have trolls polluting the Treehouse. The corrupt corporate media is lousy with trolls. The social media/podcast ecosystem is composed almost entirely of trolls.
Trolls make me cranky.
I wish Chuck Schumer would shut his mouth for just a couple years.
So tired of him standing with his hands behind his back and glasses slid down his nose acting so sophisticated
Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY) is advancing in years, so like the rest of us, a permanent silence awaits our mortal bodies.
Like you, I wish these politicians would retire earlier and leave us alone so they can go off and make use of their accumulated wealth, because they cannot take it with them.
Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Never have I ever seen a Brinks truck at an open hole burial, and I did work for an undertaker in high school.
The Egyptian Pharoah’s tried the hardest, but alas all that work was for naught.
1 Timothy Chap.6
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Quite True!
We need to think about the judgement here…be ready!
The extremist cut your head off while the moderates hold you….
Time for a nut roundtable?
Don’t give them too much time for regrouping etc.😳
The military has the real power. They are not in the nut roundtable.
Giving these demons time is what they want. This is likely an optics play to the world that shows we’re reasonable and compassionate, which the Muslims are NOT.
Get it over with and send them to North Virgin-yeah.
Christianity says Thou shall not lie. It’s a sin. Islam says yes, lie. That’s not radical Islam, that’s all Islam. Pres Trump is dealing with this the best he can.
