Presidential envoy Steve Witkoff deserves a great deal of credit for what followed in the aftermath of President Trump’s final elimination of the Iranian nuclear threat. Throughout the 12-day war, Witkoff maintained a diplomatic connection to the Iranian delegation in order to position a ceasefire upon conclusion.
The Trump administration is now taking a more firm stance toward who in Iran they will accept negotiations with. As noted by Secretary Rubio, the use of intermediaries has exhausted its usefulness. While Qatar may play a role as an interlocutor to bridge the two sides, the time has come for direct face-to-face discussions with Iranian officials.
With the potential of a peace agreement and increased stability throughout the region, there is an opportunity for an expanded investment and economic zone throughout the middle east, not just in Iran. As CTH noted regarding the threat to close the Strait of Hormuz, technically it is not the Iranian government who closes the strait, but rather the maritime insurance companies who refuse to underwrite an enlarged risk. The same concept applies when the absence of conflict becomes the norm. Steve Witkoff draws attention to this background context within his remarks.
An ancillary benefit in the Russia-Ukraine conflict comes from a very public display of FAFO outcomes. None of the principle characters within NATO, the EU, the U.K nor Ukraine or Russia want to face the Godzilla FAFO strategy that President Trump is willing to deploy.
The reason why the NATO partners responded with great deference to President Trump in the Netherlands is no global observer wants to face Godzilla in FAFO mode, militarily or economically. Even before the dust settled from 70 tons of massive ordnance detonation deep underground in Iran the leaders of the world knew things would be different now.
How different? We saw the outcome at the Hague.
He flew eight B-2 stealth bombers halfway around the world, undetected into Iran in the middle of the night and dropped 70 tons of high explosive deep underground into hardened nuclear sites, with another ten tons on another upstream site just for good measure…. Then turned them around, brought them home safely and brokered a ceasefire before bed.

Ya just gotta love the guy
Like no one else.Ever..I believe it was the depths we sank too starting round the definition of is.
Ah yes. Clintonian doublespeak….
“if”.
As in…it depends on what you mean by if.
I do. I’m more sure than ever if someone still hates him there is no hope for them.
I am becoming more inclined to believe that those who suffer from TDS are demonically possessed to some degree. The hatred in them is visceral.
Mentally ill
Alligators for the invaders, tall buildings with locked doors for the extremely unstable

I have zero doubt about that. Zero.
It’s the usual leftist libs/socialists/communists who hate America; we need to cleanse ourselves of them.

“The violence incited by Trump was predicted in The Cult of Trump. Please remove his power! Glad he was booted of Twitter, FB, Parler too shut down. Media are reaching out to me now. It is time for educational effort to teach the mechanics of how to radicalize and help people out!”
No respect for those who feel the need to list their education after their name.
Some things in life, such as TDS and Cultural Marxism, are too powerful for any of us to defeat as individuals.
The only way forward is prayer for strength and unity, but also to repeatedly call out the Cultural Marxism in schools, discredit academia, and have more people pull themselves away, back to sanity. If Cultural Marxism in academia can be degraded, and eventually defeated, the parents and other adults will follow.
DO NOT HESITATE to call out the bad behavior, regardless of the consequences. Lack of objecting is what got us here.
Glenn Beck convinced me of this. I don’t always agree with Glenn but I’ve listened to him since he was local on WFLA 25 years ago. He is a man of character and does not lie. Watch this video and you will understand:
President Trump stands for strength and clear purpose is around what is right and wrong, fair and unfair, unwavering commitment to win win agreements for everyone.
This threatens those who want the freedom to do what they want to do. Freedom from accountability. Freedom from sunlight, so they can do what they want to do in the darkness, use those they want to use, take what they want to take.

Proof that sometimes PhD really does mean ‘piled high and deep’!

Look how fat America has become. All that body fat consumes your energy and ability to think, same for the Franken-food.
They made ‘social’ issues replace ‘civic’ issues and infiltrated politics.

Already dead.
It is wonderful to have a Leader that we can be proud of and in awe of. WOW.
He is authentically himself.
I have been on this planet a long time.
I have never witnessed anything like this.
President Trump is a phenom.
God bless him! 🙏 💕
Perfectly stated. Yes!
Yep. Same here. And no, I’ve never seen anything like this, either! It’s awesome, isn’t it?
You could have stopped at “It is wonderful to have a leader…”
Finally.
If I was Trump and those freaks were calling me daddy I’d be on high alert to watch my back.
Yes, I laughed out loud, thank you.
It’s funny and excellent advise.
How grateful I am that I don’t have to be anywhere near these backstabbing freaks.
Nah. Whose your mommy?
That was a good interview
Iran allegedly saved most of the enriched uranium, so we set them back, but they’re still capable.
How many Mullahs are there?
Israel may be hiding their devastation. When was the last time they were hit w dozens of missiles? Their economy probably in shambles.
Try to say something positive at least a few times a day. See what happens.
Thanks for stopping bye CTH.

Sundance: do you know anything about Pickaxe Mountain in Iran? I never heard of it before, but it is supposedly a new nuclear fortress in Iran buried deeper than Fordo and where supposedly the Iranians moved their enriched uranium before the US strike (link: Iran’s hidden nuclear fortress that Trump’s bombs can’t reach). I hope the link works. If not, it’s on the UK’s Telgraph (www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2025/06/25/pickaxe-mountain-iran-hidden-nuclear-fortress-trump-bomb)
Is this a DS attempt to keep the “Iran has/will soon have nukes” narrative alive with something false, or is it something to be watching? Personally, I think it’s the latter.
There’s lots of chatter about it.
What news agencies are chattering?
If you know the names or have links I’ll check the data and copy it here.

“If” they have some enriched uranium, about the only thing they could do with it is to make small “dirty bombs” delivered by drones.
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2025/06/25/president-trump-talks-to-media-from-nato-summit/#comment-11896959
“…Uranium at this enrichment level is both a chemical and a radiological weapon. The toxicity data, according to a search on AI Perplexity, “…specifically is limited; risks are extrapolated from lower-enrichment studies and nuclear-material handling guidelines.” Not knowing the specifics of the risks adds to the terror component of its use. As a heavy metal, it is highly toxic to kidney function, causing both severe acute damage and chronic damage both of which may be irreversible. The toxicity accumulates in the kidney tissue, and does not depend on the isotope form of Uranium, just the amount of ingestion or exposure. Imagine thousands of people suddenly entering kidney failure. Sufficient resources to treat this scenario exist no where in the world. As a physician who specialized in nephrology (kidney diseases, dialysis, and transplantation) I can give eyewitness testimony to the horrors of dying gradually of kidney failure (uremia). That chemical toxicity is based in a very small dose of Uranium.
Larger doses are required for radiation toxicity. With higher levels of enrichment, the radiologic risk from U-235 and U-234 increases rapidly. When the U-235 level is at 60% as in the Iranian stockpile of around 900 pounds, the radiation exposure is about 1,000 times the natural background level. External exposure results in significant Gamma and Neutron radiation toxicity, which normally would require heavy shielding with lead, etc., and remote handling methods. Obviously a potent weapon if aerosolized or dumped in water supplies. Useful also as a method of “denying territory” due to contamination. Alpha emissions become responsible for increased lung cancer risks if the Uranium is inhaled. Long term exposure increases the risk of bone cancers….”
Poppycock – I don’t believe a word of this. Somebody made it up to try to save face and take away a win-win from America.
Search data:
“Pickaxe Mountain, also known as Kūh-e Kolang Gaz Lā, is located in central Iran, south of the Natanz nuclear facility in Isfahan province.
It is situated approximately 90 miles south of Fordo and is part of the Zagros Mountains range. The exact location is in the mountainous area south of the Natanz uranium enrichment site.”
Previous Seismic Activity in the area:
March 21, 2025 4.8 11 km S of Natanz 10 km No damage reported
March 21, 2025 4.5 11 km SW of Natanz 10 km No damage to Natanz nuclear site
On March 21, 2025, two significant earthquakes struck near Isfahan:
A 5.0 magnitude earthquake occurred in the early afternoon, followed by a 4.5 magnitude tremor later the same day.
Both earthquakes were centered near Natanz, with the first quake located approximately 11 km (7 mi) southwest of Natanz and the second 11 km (7 mi) south of the city. Both had a depth of 10 km.
Pickaxe Mountain is located approximately 90 miles 144 km south of the Fordo nuclear facility.
It is situated in the Zagros Mountains range, which extends over Iran, northern Iraq, and southeastern Turkey.
The mountain is part of the area surrounding Natanz and is considered a significant site due to its depth and potential for housing Iran’s nuclear activities.
Pickaxe Mountain is situated south of Natanz, within the same province.
The distance between the two is minimal, likely just a few kilometers.
It was reported on June 15,2025 that Nantaz had been “destroyed” and had “imploded”.
That’s all the data I’ve been able to find thus far.
It’s probably severely damaged or destroyed, especially if the Telegraph is trying to get everyone freaked out about it.

…suggesting the earthquakes were Iran’s nuclear test detonations?
No.
Hard strikes register as ‘earthquakes’ or tremors the same way actual earthquakes and tremors register.
Pickaxe Mountain and Natanz are apparently part of the same complex.

Pickaxe Mountain does not sound like a Persian name to me.
So the UK Telegraph knows all about it… but those analysts sitting in a room for 15 years watching and surveying and documenting every single thing about Fordow had no idea.
Thankfully, we have a crappy UK paper to alert us.
After the press conference today, reasonable people would have to at least consider that, perhaps, we are also on top of this.
Just thinking that same thing! Journos think they know more than those who have analyzed the classified info they have. Then they don’t even realize when the same question is asked 4 times at a presser.
Actually life in Israel, is back to normal. Most going about their business as usual.
Well stated! Ha ha
Thank you… there’s nothing worse than constantly having to put up with a room full of Eeyores.
Amen SD. While I’m a follower of Jesus who is my role model, for those who aren’t, try a little Kevin Hassett each day. Your life will be better for it.
And the bombs that we dropped only set them back a few months. Am I right? (sarc)
I find it hard to believe it would only take a few months when it took them over a decade to make….
It’s not like building a house
…and without centrifuges? That IS starting over. Does anyone remember that Israel did the same — took out Iran’s nuke sites in 1981?
Thanks for your “concern”
“the enriched uranium, so we set them back, but they’re still capable.”
Somewhere the past 24 hours I read all the steps necessary in the process and where the Iranians are at.
I cannot remember where to provide a link.
The answer is they might have ~400 pounds; however, they still needed the fragile equipment that was in those evacuated facilities that are gone.
An anology would be like having rocket fuel without a rocket engine to use it.
The corporate media has no idea of what goes into building weaponized nuclear facilities, the time, the equipment, the know-how (I hear the top 14 nuclear scientists in Iran are now…gone.)
Like has been mentioned, the corporate media’s only fixation is bashing PDJT and his administration on absolutely everything.
Unfortunately there are millions of low information voters deceived by the lies.
Zero evidence of that other than just idiots who want to discredit the president.
Key word – “allegedly”
I think Israeli intelligence would know if Iran attempted that.
Indeed, the Mossad proved they have been imbedded in Iran at all levels for some time now.
If the Terrorist regime leaders had managed to get the material out, we’d be hearing about it.
“Iran allegedly saved most of the enriched uranium”
Even if this were so, it was not fully enriched to bomb making level, and needed further enrichment to get there. Since we DID destroy their enrichment capabilities, any partially enriched uranium they had became useless.
I don’t care how much cookie dough they had mixed up. We destroyed their ovens, so any cookie dough they had is now useless and irrelevant.
Great analogy.
And according to some commenters they are all set to do the job in an EasyBake Oven with a light bulb.
I dunno, those things get pretty hot!! 🤣
Did Not!!
Weren’t al of their nuclear experts taken out on day 1? How many are lined up to replace them?
Again I ask you, how will they further enrich it? You seem to miss the point.
Was that a Communist News Network (CNN) theory ..? I think I hear an echo..
Mullahs
The Mullahs hate us for our freedom.
David Kramer spread Steele dossier around Washington during Trump transition
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/mar/14/david-kramer-spread-steele-dossier-around-washingt/
The mullahs hate us ‘cos we are not under their sharia control.
So let me say what Dana Loesch said. If Mossad had eyes in Iran for all this time before the bombing, don’t you think they would have know or seen any uranium being moved?
Don’t you think they would have known where it was moved? Seems like a simple explanation for a country who was flying drones in Tehran and plotted this baby out.
I think Dana is right……….
No evidence that they saved enriched uranium. I wouldn’t worry about Israel, who came in and made the desert bloom, while winning more global awards for invention/tech/etc than any other country.
“The same concept applies when the absence of conflict becomes the norm.”
Adopting a world view like this benefits all nations, not only the USA.
If PDJT can influence world events like this outside of the status quo of what has been done before, it will set up an example for others to follow after he retires from the world stage and his mission will have been successful beyond all expectations.
There is no reason the USA cannot become trading partners with every mid east country. And of course Russia. Matter of fact, Russia would be a better ally than any euro weenie country. If Trump can get Israel and the Jew hating Middle East countries to set aside their hatred for each other, he will be hailed as the greatest leader ever. And if he can destroy the deep state and the back stabbing uniparty, he can do it.
PDJT is setting a precedence.
May the 🌎 prosper for his efforts.
God bless.
America First.
But President Trump has never said America Alone and Only, which is something, as the world shrinks, would be impossible in any case…which he has always understood.
Quite right, DI.
Go back to his military school days; that is thee exact stance in single picture.
Once learned, never forgotten 👍🏻
Salute, the same.
Looking svelte ..
AKA “Daddy.”
Fitting.
“America Alone and Only, which is something, as the world shrinks, would be impossible in any case…”
Yes indeed. There are raw materials we have needed for modern living that we do not have. Titanium, Chromium and Cobalt come to mind.
Russia and Africa have them. IIRC we do not even have an operating lead smelter in the US anymore.
I am not even going to bring up the rare earths & Lithium that have become prominent in the last decade or two.
As the bombing occurred, we saw quite a few people here who proclaimed that “This [the bombing] was not what I voted for.” Then announced that they were done with MAGA and President Trump in particular. Some were bots or droppers-by, no question. But I recognized too many names.
I didn’t enter those conversations, but I couldn’t help thinking…
I didn’t vote for that either. None of us did. But I did vote to give this great, smart man the opportunity to pour calming waters on a blazing, dangerous and chaotic world. So that, God willing, we could begin to restore some semblance of concord and peace in our own country.
Pevious administrations have done nothing but set fires throughout tinder boxes worldwide, the effects of which include making America more unstable, less safe.
Helen Keller said that the only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision. An affliction belonging, it grieves me to say, to so many who I hope will take a moment or two, post excitement, to examine the extraordinary benefits for our nation of what President Trump…a man with far reaching vision who always keeps America First in mind…is accomplishing with every move he makes. Even if we do not quite see where he is going.
Understand it, reconsider, and rejoin the Trump Train which, please God, will deliver us to a much better destination than our enemies both here and abroad had us booked for.
“I did vote to give this great, smart man the opportunity to pour calming waters on a blazing, dangerous and chaotic world.”
I thought I was well versed in how the world worked. Six months into watching PDJT in action during his first term, I realized I hardly knew diddly-squat.
We must realize that PDJT has access to information that we do not have when he is making decisions. By this time, he realizes that he was being fed false information for the ulterior motives of the “deep state”.
CEO’s have to make tough decisions. Rarely do they make one that pleases everyone. Usually one group is happy and another left upset.
And sometimes a decision is made where everyone is unhappy.
I am happy with the decisions PDJT is making, considering the alternative.
I do not fully approve of some of the people he has in place to assist him – but that is his administration and not mine.
My job is to pray for him & his administration.
1 Timothy 2:1-6 KJV
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; [2] For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
[3] For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; [4] Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
[5] For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; [6] Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
Scripture so beautifully selected, my friend.
And as with you, there are those he has selected I am very uneasy with. More so as time moves on and they do not seem be moving at all. But we are in the spectator seats, not able to peep behind the curtain.
Our Father appointed this man who has brought all his experiences in the civil world to bear to a corrupt arena. His on the job training first term and his near fatal encounter in Butler have emboldened him…and his faith. We must have the same, and patience…and mustard seeds if either weaken.
Be blessed, Michael…
👍
So in agreement. Vociferously.
Well said, Betsy
I read a lot of comments (another site) about a “forever war,” and I kept trying to ask if they didn’t remember Syria, (1ST TERM) which did NOT turn into a “forever war” – and this is the same. But a lot of “MAGA-divded” stuff I read was by leftist trolls trying to divide.

I can tell you, my Russian wife (who is a staunch supporter of Russia in Ukraine) has taken notice of the awesome might of the U.S. attack on Iran.
This is why… amongst a bunch of reasons… Iraq and Afghanistan were huge mistakes. You don’t go in half-assed with some sorta kinda objectives…
Vietnam, too.
Bomb them. Undetected. Cease fire within 12 hours.
Outcomes still in the making, but by God, no one can deny there was a massive effect of this all over the world.
The only ones whining about it are those who live in fear, or those who want the world to remain in chaos so they can grift. No one thought Iran should have nukes. Not even the true Iranians.
And this is just over 150 days of his Presidency, he still has a full tool box. He still commands the chief presence of impact at every meeting he attends — whether it be children gathered around him in the Oval office, or conniving double minded NATO leaders at a meeting who despise him. He still commands the position of chief influence.
Can’t believe I’m imagining peace in the middle east for the 1st time in my life as a real possibility. Watching him on the world stage is incredible. I’m as confident that he’s still got his eyes on dismantling government corruption and unleashing an economic boon here at home. He is brilliant and steadfast and may God bless our President.
Yes, the Abraham Accords. Pathways of commerce that lead to jobs and a better standard of living after appreciation for skills of making something are established.

Retired Magistrate here: After four depressing years of Biden and his handlers, I am just sitting here grinning ear to ear about everything that has happened in the last several days. President Trump is just amazing and is humble enough to give glory to GOD like he did on Saturday evening after the mission was accomplished. I am just amazed at the precision bombing that took place; Wow just Wow.
It was miraculous….and all Glory to God and Potus acknowledged….it was beautiful
So am I, Retired Magistrate. Smiling for so many reasons and blessings in this month alone……
We are the envy of anyone sane in the world.

Then turned them around, brought them home safely and brokered a ceasefire before bed.”
Not to be “picky”, but many reports have said seven B-2 stealth bombers, not eight. Are they wrong?
Also, the GBU-57 is listed all over the place as 15 tons and neither 70 tons nor 10 tons is evenly divisible by that.
yawn
The Mission, the planes and the bombs are all highly classified.
No wonder people are guessing at the actual specs.
I am impressed by NO LEAKS!
“No wonder people are guessing at the actual specs.”
People have to realize what they are reading.
Each bomb has specs, there is more than one bomb and one plane with more than one site.
Some reports stated the total of the munitions dropped.
Then you have to consider the source of what you are reading. Many sources cannot be trusted.
People that are solely relying on their traditional MSM for their information are sadly deceived and misinformed as to what is real.
Which is why PDJT has vociferously attacked the MSM and their lies in recent days.
The GBU-57 uses a BLU-127 series bomb as the explosive component. The BLU-127 series bombs feature modular design that allows for incremental improvements and future upgrades.
One variant of the BLU-127 bomb body contains 4,590 pounds (2,082 kg) of AFX-757 and 752 pounds (341 kg) of PBXN-114, a polymer-bonded explosive (PBX), for a total explosive payload of 5,342 pounds (2,423 kg).
The PBX is optimized for controlled detonation in confined spaces.
The bomb’s casing is made from high-density Eglin steel alloy, engineered to survive the extreme stresses of deep penetration before detonation.
(Source Wikipedia)
30,000 lbs each bomb, with 10,000 lbs of explosive. = 5 tons explosive each bomb. Drop 14 = 70 tons.
Simply incredible.
Just goes to show what an important and critical part of these bombs the casing is. The steel needs to be incredibly strong and thick to penetrate the concrete, steel and rock around the target. It weighs a lot.
Not to be picky, but 14 MOPs (7 B-2s, 2 MOPS apiece @ 15 tons [30,000 lbs] high explosive per MOP) = 210 tons. 30 sublaunched TLAMs @ 0.5 tons (1000 pounds for those of you in Rio Linda) = 15 tons. 210+15=225 tons of high explosive, plus whatever else the accompanying fighter jets dropped.
In any case,
KA-BOOM!!
💥💥💥💥💥
Only 10,000 lbs is explosive material. The rest is titanium and components

Otter: “Germans?”
Boone: “Forget it, he’s rolling.”
The 8 instead of 7 planes may be an error, but each bunker buster bomb has a little over 5000# of explosive, so the 70 tons plus 10 tons is very close.
Besides, the point is very, very much the same. Also, there were no guarantees, but he did it anyway. One doesn’t build billion dollar developments in the pit of a commie, democratic bureaucrat hell-hole without being an optimist.

Under Biden the US was looking like a paper tiger and that’s no longer the case.
Additionally Brics is looking silly now that Putin and Xi won’t be attending. And the military co-op that RU was selling to Iran no longer looks iron clad as it did under Biden
Britain pee’d off at Trumps actions, and need war to survive.
They just haven’t realized yet that it’s going to be a war of Islam versus the British citizens.
Winning=Trump.
Very Stable Genius Trump keeps them all off balance with his intellect, honesty and bravery.
If you say so, but I don’t believe Russia is a bit concerned about the USA’s military prowess, though I do think the U.K., EU and NATO are concerned about losing the USA’s military prowess.
RU was operating under the impression that the US was a paper tiger thanks to old Joe. I don’t think they’re worried per se about Trump using it.
While they may be publicly undermining it I think it gives them pause seeing a precision show of force like that especially when Iran has s400s and I believe RU or Chinese radar systems
I think that there is mutual respect regarding Russia.
The Europeans and Brits are realizing that Trump is not playing games anymore. If they don’t get their houses in order ASAP they may be left to their own devices, which frankly, they should be.
I meant it it when I posted elsewhere we need to draw down our troops and assets in Europe and England to pre WWII levels meaning Zero.
Secretary Rubio was hilarious today when the reporter asked Godzilla Trump about being Daddy. It was a great moment in time that showed how amazing Team Trump is. The fact we can have humor displayed on the world stage like that interwoven with serious issues is really something to behold. And in a way…uniquely American. Greatest President of all time. 💥🇺🇸💥🇺🇸💥
The cease fire seems very fragile, both sides having broken it already. Though they both say they want a comprehensive peace agreement.
fragile
Once the crisis has been established, there is opportunity to exploit the crisis for political and/or financial gain.

Biden Admin Labelled COVID Mandate Critics as ‘Domestic Violent Extremists’

Now that was a fun read!
In the words of Greg Gutfeld…we don’t deserve him (PDJT)!
There are red lines and then there are RED LINES!
In 1979, president Jimmy Carter showed the world the true meaning of feckless when he held a news conference and told the world he’d become aware of the presence of Soviet combat troops on Cuba. Then he drew a red line in the sand and warned the USSR “this status quo is not acceptable,” and demanded the troops be removed.
The Soviets ignored him, sent even more troops to Cuba…
…and Carter did nothing about it!
Barack Obama must’ve liked Jimmy’s approach because in 2013 Obama held a news conference and told the world he’d become aware that Assad of Syria was using deadly serin gas on his own people and that was unacceptable! Then Obama drew a Carteresque red line in the sand by demanding that Assad stop gassing his political enemies or face U.S. military intervention!
Assad ignored him and used even more serin gas to wipe out his opposition…
…and Obama did nothing about it!
The message to the world’s tyrants for last fifty years has been clear!
When dealing with an American president, you can FA and FA some more…and keep f*cking around for YEARS…
…and American presidents won’t do sh*t about it!
So naturally, the Iranian mullahs thought they knew what they were dealing with when it came to President Trump!
But Trump is anything but feckless…in fact, he is full to the brim with FECK!
And now, a dozen or so bunker buster bombs later, the Ayatolah and NATO and the EU all know!
DON”T FA with Trump…really, don’t!

Jim Jones was an “anti-racist” blm grifter before Carter’s wife thought it was cool.
I miss the original “line in the sand,” before BO messed up our idioms. (“Throw her under the bus”??? No! It’s “throw her to the wolves.”)
And Cor-ringe. Have now heard corporate media say that stupid, “It’s top of mind” that she blew, as if it was a serious thing.
I have the highest respect for Sundance, and it’s a respect earned over time. I’m not aware of anything even remotely as accurately informative, over a decade plus, concerning Trump and domestic issues. Sundance has truly been an oracle of truth in what he shares regarding our domestic political realities. I also respect the significant degree of understanding that Sundance has shared regarding foreign matters.
So, *respectfully*, I disagree with his take on the Iran hit. I believe either that President Trump and perhaps others in his inner circle have either been deceived (lowest probability), or that an entirely different ‘reality’ is taking place behind the scenes. I know the old “5d Chess” phrase is used generally to mock clusterfuc–, however many things being announced and claimed by President Trump and his administration have so far, failed to be backed by hard, physical, cleanly verified evidence to establish fact beyond *reasonable* doubt.
I’m looking forward to what Hagseth presents tomorrow. If the current level of doubt as to the effectiveness of the operation remains in doubt due to lack of truly definitive proof, then that could become a problem in the midterms.
Just my thoughts.
Have you seen what a GBU-57 does? Common sense says that 12 of them dropped down ventilation shafts, direct access to the underground facility, means total destruction. It’s also known that the above ground conversion facility in Isfahan is gone. They can’t convert uranium into anything any more. Something tells me no matter what they say tomorrow, you’ll still be in doubt.
I don’t expect the pictures to show a lot.
An explosion 300 feet underground will leave what on top of the ground to be seen?
AS far as rebuilding, that ground will be forever unstable. It would be cheaper and more reasonable to go somewhere else.
I looked at the before and after pictures and saw subsidence of the mountain ridge between the two entry groupings.
Groupings, I might add, most shooters would be proud of with a handgun at 5 yards much less what our Air Force just did. Awesome!
It could, but some people will never believe no matter how much proof positive, because — Trump. Goes all the way back to 2016.

Wonder if she was at today’s presser, where they gave details with graphs and pics to explain it to journos too lazy to research for themselves.
What a creepy picture of those 3..Micron, Mers, and Harmer. 🤣
Time for countries to put their big boy pants on and talk directly with each other…what are they, unions?
Thank goodness we have a strong president and not these pipsqueak mice..all soy boys. Ewww 🤮
“An ancillary benefit in the Russia-Ukraine conflict comes from a very public display of FAFO outcomes. None of the principle characters within NATO, the EU, the U.K nor Ukraine or Russia want to face the Godzilla FAFO strategy that President Trump is willing to deploy.”
No doubt China is now recalibrating what they thought they knew about Donald J. Trump (Who’s your daddy – FAFO).

Fox News guest host Tyrus and the ‘Gutfeld!’ panel discuss
President Donald Trump’s remarks about a ceasefire in the Israel-
Iran conflict.
Iran needs to take the deal do the pipeline through SA and Gaza and be done with it. all can prosper from there.
I saw a BBC earlier today complaining that everyone was referring to POTUS Trump at the Hague.
😂

“Arizona border officials would tell me the only time they saw Democrats was when they came to complain about deportations
“They couldn’t be bothered to care about the carnage illegal aliens left behind
“It showed them EXACTLY what the Left’s priorities are”

“The comments made by the Vice Mayor of Cudahy, CA, Cynthia Gonzalez, are despicable. She calls for criminal gangs – including the vicious 18th street gang—to commit violence against our brave ICE law enforcement.”
Has anyone yet seen the Ayatollah Khamenei?? Considering the number of ‘government officials’ that were ‘eliminated’ during the 12 day war, exactly who is running the Iranian government and in a position to make any decisions or negotiations?? What has happened with teh officials and military operatives that defected to Pahlavi?? Questions need to be answered.
