The Game Plan
Sundance @TheLastRefuge2
“Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more.
Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it. He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it.
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity.
Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later.
Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit.
A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives.
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!”
Unseen1 @unseen1_unseen
Here is the game plan that the forces against Trump will be using for the foreseeable future.
They will attempt to get you to make the perfect the enemy of the good.
Be it the freedom clowns and spending, the immigration hawks with H1B visas, the peace doves with timing, the cultural warriors with total bans of DEI/CRT, the neocons with war fighting, or the swamp dwellers with draining the swamp.
All of them will attempt to get you to believe on whatever issue is the issue of the day that it doesn’t go far enough or do enough. They will try to make you think that some sub issue of that issue is more important and should be handled first, that since the issue hasn’t been handled yet it won’t be, that we can’t do more than one thing, that so and so is a plant to stop the draining of the swamp, or that because it wasn’t 100% Trump lied. On every single issue, one or more groups will attempt this strategy.
You can’t allow them that power over you. If Trump secures the border and deports 2 million, don’t allow them to reduce that good by them saying well he didn’t deport 2.5 million, so he failed or lied.
You can’t allow them to use the perfect to void out the good in the coming months.
They will try. They already have with the CR and the H1b visa debates. It works, that is why they use it. You have to keep it in the front of your head on everything about to occur that half a loaf or hopefully in most cases 7/8ths a loaf is better than no loaf.
Do not allow them to gaslight you into thinking the good is the enemy of the perfect.
In the real world, most things are never perfect, but if we try real hard, we can get plenty of good accomplished in the coming 4 years.
The purpose and goals of President Trump are plainly visible by his actions and consistent: He is for the benefit first of the common PEOPLE of this country, then of the PEOPLE in the rest of the world. It is validating, even to our battered conservative skepticism.
The methods of his leadership are amazing. I still don’t get HOW he does it, or HOW he is able to get so much momentum going, but every day the momentum is growing. Everyone and every organization has their eyes opened every day — just by watching him. Even those who hate him, are biased against him, and want to see him gone — cannot ignore him. He lives rent free in their head, and they come around to seeing the universal principles by which he is operating. He hammers actions based on truth from one direction, then another, and they cannot mount an organized opposition against him.
President Trump is transparent in his words and actions. He is consistent in what he says, what he does, and what he asks/demands of others. His promises are bold and he keeps them like no other president has. He is making massive, nearly overnight changes, not only in our country, but in the world. It is amazing that he is able to accomplish so much when there are so many snakes in the grass. This second term, he is weeding them out faster and choosing like-minded servants who multiply his effectiveness. No U.S. president has ever faced so much organized resistance and treason than President Trump
He has chosen to use his intellect and every skill he has to do what is right. He has tremendous faith that he can make a difference in this world. He has a confidence and courage such that he doesn’t care what others think, yet a humility to know he has to do it with the help of like minded people. Those people are the “common” people, and he ridicules those who think they are not common.
He believes people are basically good. He believes that God is real. He believes that healthy people are happy people, and they need to be able to create wealth freely for their labor, and have the freedom to spend their money on what is good for them.
He believes the United States, with its Constitutional Republic, is the best environment in the world to enable and give opportunity for people to be happy and prosperous.
He believes that we can be a light for the world, but we must demand that the rest of the world respect us and our right to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
He believes the enemy of our country are the stupid, greedy American people who have been selfishly taking advantage of this country; who betrayed the trust and obedience of its people; and who diverted the people’s wealth for their own selfish gain, at the expense of the principles of this country. He’s not going to allow that anymore.
He has cultivated and focused the family of MAGA. Identifying those people whose goodness, industriousness, trust, and obedience have been taken advantage of and abused. He has opened our eyes to this abuse, and to the rights of freedom and self determination that have been quietly stolen from us.
He has rekindled the same healthy distrust held by our founders of government and men with too much power. He has recultivated the desire to reclaim our freedoms and rights, and is empowering us with a hope and pathway to reclaim our spiritual and economic freedom.
He wants the US to be a light of hope on the hill for all people. He will negotiate win/win agreements with those nations and countries who respect us; who respect the principles and intent of our Constitution. If you do not respect us, however, we are not going to let you take advantage of our goodness, or share in our wealth at our expense. If you as a nation are treating your people badly, you are going to be treated less favorably by us, until you show that you value your people as much as we value ours. He believes that nations who treat their people well will also be good economic neighbors with us.
He is convincing those who are very wealthy (most of whom truly earned their money), that the best economic soil in which to build wealth is in a constitutional republic, which supports the ability of the common man to earn wealth in proportion to his efforts. The economic engine of the United States is the human spirit freed to enjoy the fruits of honest labor, and that engine has more natural and raw horsepower than any other governed economy.
The Trump Train seems to be remarkably aligned with universal principles of Truth, which reflect the will and design of our Creator, and are the best standard by which we should live. These same principles were what our country’s founders used to declare independence, and framed into the Constitution of this nation.
Our founders believed that a nation should preserve the right and freedom of an individual to seek, understand, and live by God’s principles. They believed that free individuals working together in humility would make a stronger nation than a government which dictates its will on the people. President Trump professes and seeks to lead and restore this nation back to these same principles.
These principles resonate deeply within all human beings, down to our DNA in every cell, in our spirits, and produce fruit that “miraculously” multiplies. Because we follow universal principles, we see the snowballing acceleration of momentum on day 83 of the 2nd year of the 2nd term of this very stable genius in the history of the kingdoms of this world in the year of our Lord 2025.
In Jesus’ Name, I pray……Amen~
Amen
Amen
Amen!
Amen. Go God beat the devil.
The BRI (Belt and Road Initiative)… from a recent op/ed on the topic: “While the war is not expected to totally block the BRI, it will certainly have some major implications for it. China can be expected to shift from expansion to risk management. It is already stockpiling energy, restricting exports, and reducing exposure to unstable regions. The war weakens the “Iran corridor,” since Iran can no longer function as a stable anchor, and the overland routes to the Middle East become unreliable.
Instead, the BRI is likely to increase its reliance on alternative routes through Central Asia – Russia (despite Ukraine war complications) and maritime routes via Southeast Asia.
Instead of one integrated system, the BRI is likely to experience increased fragmentation into regional “mini corridors” with more selective investments. Thus, the war doesn’t just slow BRI – it forces China to rethink the entire concept from expansion to resilience.”
https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-891752
I would like hear much more about the US position on this topic. the US shares the concern of some in Asia that the BRI could be a Trojan horse for China-led regional development and military expansion but thus far, Washington has struggled to offer participating governments a more appealing economic vision.

Pennsylvania Sec. Al Schmidt Uncovers Hundreds of Non-Citizens on Voter Rolls in Addition to Another 11,000 Previously Flagged
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/04/pennsylvania-sec-al-schmidt-uncovers-hundreds-non-citizens
Only 11,000 in a state of 13 million? Look at Chester Co registration + mail in votes please.
State wide, 75% are claimed to be registered (7.8 mil out of 9.7 mil eligible). Townships are seeing drastic increases in voter “participation”, averaging +10% over the last 25 years. We just hit a million mail in votes last year. Together, that accounts for almost all of the participation increase. We didn’t magically become more civically engaged, we increased the ability for shadow registration and vote harvesting.
https://ballotpedia.org/Voter_turnout_in_Pennsylvania
Pittsburgh and Philly control the state! The rest is basically Conservative.
A little start………’hundreds’ should be multiple thousands if not a million.
Philly along upped the amount of votes by 40%……
Mail in balloting, which skirts any real voter ID is THE problem. The SAVE act might help, but won’t solve this.
We need all the help we can get!
The “Save America Act” is nothing but “window dressing”…
It allows States (at this point in time, 28 States) to continue using the fraudulent machines to “count” the votes…
Now you now why we have a Dem as Gov.
Same in AZ. In addition to a three week (until we get a dem in), voting day.
A good read….

15. Thus it is that in war the victorious strategist only seeks battle after the victory has been won, whereas he who is destined to defeat first fights and afterwards looks for victory.
I’ve heard this viewpoint in a couple different places. What I’d like to know is the exact percentages of Iran oil each country used, because “sources” vary quite a bit. Whether each author is using total amounts used coming from the straight or just Iran might be why percentages are different, but none are the same.
Imho, whatever the totals may, or may not be, the end result will be the profits will go to the betterment of Iranian PEOPLE.

President Trump will, in reality, “Take the Oil”, without removing a single drop.

“…one might argue Trump turnd what the enemy believed to be a leverage to a ticking time bomb trap the IRGC just walked into.”
Good article and this point is most assuredly true.
and just like that, iran will not come to terms even with jd vance. who knew? we all did and talequay sp. cant negotitate when obfuscation and lack of true agreement can be present. its tuesday again, and sundance is right about the rail line from china to iran. when pt had to force feed navy destroyers through the strait.. we knew.

Railway lines are of little use without bridges to transverse “difficult terrain”.
Less to keep under surveillance to prevent further SKULDUGGERY!!

I. LAYING PLANS
3. The art of war, then, is governed by five constant factors, to be taken into account in one’s deliberations, when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.
4. These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth; (4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.
5, 6. The Moral Law causes the people to be in complete accord with their ruler, so that they will follow him regardless of their lives, undismayed by any danger.
7. Heaven signifies night and day, cold and heat, times and seasons.
8. Earth comprises distances, great and small; danger and security; open ground and narrow passes; the chances of life and death.
I read that Pakistan wants the ceasefire to hold regardless. POTUS has less than 30 days left
before he has to have congressional approval. They want to run out the clock.. Hopefully
POTUS says no more talks.. and gets it done before then..
Doesn’t matter. He gamed it all out. He Won. Over. Surrender is a tramatic process. Our President has a good heart, and it helping them through the process.
President Putin needs to take note, and tie things up over there quickly.
This will tell us a lot. Will/Can Iran respond militarily?
President Trump Announces the U.S. is Beginning to Clear Out the Strait of Hormuz ‘As a Favor to Countries All Over the World’
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/04/breaking-president-trump-announces-u-s-is-beginning/
Trump explained that while the world benefits from a reopened and secure strait, empty oil-carrying ships from multiple nations are now steaming toward U.S. ports to load up on American oil rather than relying on Middle Eastern supplies.
You mean Zelensky needs to surrender. IMO, surrendering and agreeing to give up parts of Ukraine will end it.
There is no doubt that President Putin and President Trump are working together to “tie things up over there quickly”
Unless a ceasefire resets the clock
Apparently the 60 days renews after a cease fire.
There is not one person outside Pakistan who gives a crap what the Pakistanis want.
I think President Trump used their need for a ceasefire for his own theatrical production, knowing that it would not be successful in the first place.
That request for help opened a lot of eyes! We now know who supports us!

Oppsie… updated new Eric Swalwell video… the first video (pictures) showed a slim younger brunette, allegedly a sex worker, and every few hours more is revealed – updated pictures and videos of the same party / encounter.
These new video clips and pictures (stills) reveal possibly a blonde woman also in the bedroom, and a man with a beard.
The other man – possibly his BFF Democrat Congressman?
Meanwhile, other publications allege that Swalwell is camped out in Beverly Hills at the 10,000 SF mansion of his number one billionaire backer, who is engaged to a former Penthouse Pet.

If this is really at his home:
– was his wife unaware that he defiled his home and privacy?
– or is she in on it? (I doubt it)
Eric Swalwell is also allegedly accused of using campaign funds to pay an illegal Brazilian nanny under the table.

Manhattan DA after Swawell? A DNC warning. Better keep quiet…..
They want Swalwell out because of their stupid ranked choice voting, it’s not about his crimes. For once the Republicans have less candidates than the Democrats, giving them the advantage in ranked choice voting. This will not only get Swalwall out but serve as a warning to other Democratic candidates they don’t want in the election, get out or get destroyed. I think the Democrats will want only two candidates before this is done.
Conservative Journalist Explains Why the Liberal Media is Going Along With the Destruction of Eric Swalwell
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/04/conservative-journalist-explains-why-liberal-media-is-going/
The upcoming June 2 California gubernatorial primary is not like other primaries. Instead of one Democrat primary winner and one Republican primary winner facing off in the general election, the top two vote-getters advance to the general election… regardless of party. Now go and look at the polls. As you can see, there’s a very real chance two Republicans could win the primary, which would ensure a Republican becomes governor of California.
The media and Democrats cannot allow that possibility, so it’s been decided that Swalwell must be sacrificed. His sacrifice will break the three-way tie between the three top Democrats — Swalwell, Katie Porter, and Tom Steyer — and once Swalwell’s 15 percent support moves to the other two, one or both is certain to go on to compete in the general election, which practically ensures Democrats hold onto California’s governor’s seat.
Plus this give Manhattan DA the chance to look less bias see we didn;t just target

One Of America’s Most Iconic Symbols — Now ‘Islamic’? The New History Fight
Excerpt:
“The petitioners’ efforts claim that Islam influenced our founding, culture, and way of life,” the letter states. “For instance, the (board) recently responded to public testimony asserting that the Alamo is an Islamic building.”
“Such claims are intended to introduce sensationalized or false history into our curriculum, and it is not the (board’s) responsibility to accommodate flagrant lies or cultivate spurious claims of their belonging.”
The fight over the standards has been raging for weeks, with local Muslim groups organizing in support of changes. In March, an Islamic center in Houston hosted a discussion on “challenging Islamophobia in Texas schools.”
Gill said that Islam played no major role in the founding or development of Texas and warned against what he described as “revisionist history.”

What is wrong with Texas Govt Abbott?
A lot. Idk how Texans have put up with him this long. Now that TX has been invaded by CA and illegals, Islam has arrived. Good luck getting rid of the religion of bits and pieces!
Abbot is a “pretend” Conservative… He says and/or does things to convince Texans he is doing what a governor should do, but it is all “window dressing”…
An example: Abbot has MANY times sent the Texas Nat’l Guard to the border (when the illegals were coming in by the millions), but, he never gave the Guard the order to stop and arrest the illegal invaders…
Argh. The founders of our country were enemies of Islam from its beginning, to the point we literally invented the Marines to end Islamic piracy in the Mediterranean. This is revisionist to a whole new level.

I loved that man! As a kid I would stay up and watch the Johnny Carson Show every day. Mondays were rerun days and during the US Open. How Johnny would cut the monologue short when it sucked. Or having unknown comedians on. I saw the first appearances of a lot of stand up comedians. The political jokes were great and appropriate. And, Ed’s voice was its own character. I watched the final episode of the Carson Show and cried my eyes out.
That’s our President. A person spent his life nitting his own thread into the fabric of the American culture, a contribution that every American benefitted from and our President honors his contribution by giving him a retirement worthy of that contribution. If that doesn’t exemplify an American and Americas values nothing does!
God bless America and our President, Donald J. Trump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is just one of countless acts of kindness from this man throughout the years. 🦁👑
He is so falsely maligned.
This country 🇺🇸– this world 🌎– is fortunate to have him steering our ship.

MOSSADIL COMMENTARY:
WHY TRUMP SENT JD VANCE
A lot of right-wing voices opposing a war with Iran are aligned with JD Vance. He’s not a hawk. He’s seen as anti-war. And he carries credibility with the Tucker Carlson crowd. That’s exactly why I think Trump sends him. Not just to negotiate with Iran, but to manage expectations at home. If a deal is possible, Vance will push hard to find it. If talks fail, no one can say the U.S. sent someone looking for war. That matters for Trump’s base. Because if Iran rejects terms even from someone like Vance… It sends a very different message.

“Two American destroyers clear out any mines in that strait.”
What strait is that you ask?
That STRAIT OF AMERICA! (formerly known as The Strait of Hormuz).
Once cleared of mines by American destroyers and once the Iranian terrorists are stopped, by Americans, from firing on shipping, ….. President Trump, on demands by the “freed Iranian citizens”, ….. will rename the strait, The STRAIT OF AMERICA to illustrate the “freed Iranian citizens'” appreciation of America’s sacrifices to free Iran from the terrorist mulla-hahas who have terrorized Iran for 47 years.
He will then, temporarily, turn it into a one way exit canal (just like Texas and Florida turn their north / south highways into one way hurricane evacuation routes) and tells all of the tankers bottled up to head for the open seas, no charge and no danger from the mulla-hahas iranian terrorists.
Yup, the Strait of America is “OPEN FOR BUSINESS …….. UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT!

From above article:
“”Overall Saudi crude exports fell 26% year-on-year in March to 4.39 million bpd, Kpler and JODI data showed. Still, higher prices increased the value of those exports by roughly $558 million from a year earlier. Riyadh had pre-emptively boosted exports in February to their highest since April 2023, in case of a U.S. attack on Iran.
Despite the advantage of the East-West link, Quilliam said Saudi Arabia remained vulnerable to further strikes by Iran or its allies in Yemen, the Houthis, against its energy infrastructure in the west and vessels passing through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait to the Red Sea.””
…
“”Both countries are likely to suffer steeper declines in April as their March revenues were improved by cargoes that managed to sail in the early days of the conflict. A tanker laden with Iraqi crude sailed through the Strait last week after Iran said Iraq would be exempt from restrictions.””
IMHO: Itaq is Shia and terrorist training ground.
“”Adriana Alvarado, VP of sovereign ratings at Morningstar DBRS, said Gulf governments had options to shore up their finances and could either draw on fiscal savings or go to the financial markets to issue debt.””
.. Fyi: Think who will finance??
“Apart from Bahrain, the Gulf states have enough fiscal room to deal with the shock, with government debt at moderate levels below 45% of GDP,” she added.””
.. Lots to contemplate 🫤
Out-blockade Iran’: Trump floats Hormuz naval blockade in post after Islamabad talks fail
“It would be very easy for the US Navy to exert complete control over what does and does not go up and down the Strait now,” the article, from Just the News, claimed.
Reports claim talks were tense, officials nearly came to blows
As of Sunday morning, both the US and Iranian delegations left the negotiation table unsatisfied, with Vance claiming the US had been “quite flexible,” and the Iranian team saying the negotiations had been “conducted in an atmosphere of mistrust.”
In addition, Turkish media reported that negotiations surrounding certain key topics were so tense – namely, the management of the Strait of Hormuz – that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghi and US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff nearly came to blows.

US arrests Iranian family tied to 1979 Iran hostage crisis at US embassy
Seyed Eissa Hashemi is the son of Masoumeh Ebtekar, the infamous spokeswoman for the Islamist militants who overran the US Embassy in Tehran during the 1979 hostage crisis.
https://www.jpost.com/international/article-892701
Iranian Islamic Regime family members continue to get the boot from the U.S. The latest? Seyed Eissa Hashemi and his wife, Maryam Tahmasebi. Seyed Eissa Hashemi, the son of Masoumeh Ebtekar, aka “Screaming Mary”, the spokeswoman for the Islamic terrorists who stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days. The Obama administration allowed Seyed Eissa Hashemi and Maryam Tahmasebi into the U.S., eventually granting them permanent residency.
Rubio:
Masoumeh Ebtekar – also known as “Screaming Mary” – was the spokeswoman for the Islamic terrorists who stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days – subjecting them to beatings, starvation, and mock executions. In 2014, the Obama Administration granted visas to her son and his family to enter the United States. In June 2016, the Obama Administration gave them lawful permanent resident status via the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program. This week, I terminated their lawful permanent resident status and today, Seyed Eissa Hashemi, Maryam Tahmasebi, and their son are now in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement pending their removal from our country. Her family should never have been allowed to benefit from the extraordinary privilege of living in our country. America can never become home for anti-American terrorists or their families – and under the Trump Administration, it never will.

You can’t hate these assholes enough! 🤔
What
s next ???Where are we in this cease-fire ? talk seems to have failed..........some think we should bomb hell out of Iran now...
I have always said no matter what this will go on for a long time........no easy fix.
Unless the fools in Iran start firing missles and such at the folks next door or at ships ......I think now it becomes who has the means to control the straits of whore moose.
Islam wants us all dead and Israel wants all islam gone.........they can pretend they want peace ...but oil and water will never mix.
not by human hands .
I pray for our troops and for God to guide President Trump thru this mess...........
As i said in a post my oldest son did 3 tours in Iraq ,was wounded twice ...once by a IED made in Iran......
so part of me does not give a damn if they bomb them to hell.
and parts of me know the horror of war on the innocents.................war is insane.........
the good book says there is a time and a season for all things...a time to heal ..a time to kill
pray for Gods will to be done………….
have a blessed day
Thank you, bjorkdream Definitely 🙏
Part 2:
Trump: “So, there you have it, the meeting went well, most points were agreed to, but the only point that really mattered, NUCLEAR, was not. Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz. At some point, we will reach an “ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO IN, ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO OUT” basis, but Iran has not allowed that to happen by merely saying, “There may be a mine out there somewhere,” that nobody knows about but them.
THIS IS WORLD EXTORTION, and Leaders of Countries, especially the United States of America, will never be extorted. I have also instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas. We will also begin destroying the mines the Iranians laid in the Straits. Any Iranian who fires at us, or at peaceful vessels, will be BLOWN TO HELL!
Iran knows, better than anyone, how to END this situation which has already devastated their Country. Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone, their Anti Aircraft and Radar are useless, Khomeini, and most of their “Leaders,” are dead, all because of their Nuclear ambition. The Blockade will begin shortly. Other Countries will be involved with this Blockade. Iran will not be allowed to profit off this Illegal Act of EXTORTION. They want money and, more importantly, they want Nuclear. Additionally and, at an appropriate moment, we are fully “LOCKED AND LOADED,” and our Military will finish up the little that is left of Iran! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

Part one;
FULL PRESIDENT TRUMP STATEMENT AFTER IRAN TALKS FAIL
Trump: “Iran promised to open the Strait of Hormuz, and they knowingly failed to do so. This caused anxiety, dislocation, and pain to many people and Countries throughout the World. They say they put mines in the water, even though all of their Navy, and most of their “mine droppers,” have been completely blown up. They may have done so, but what ship owner would want to take the chance? There is great dishonor and permanent harm to the reputation of Iran, and what’s left of their “Leaders,” but we are beyond all of that. As they promised, they better begin the process of getting this INTERNATIONAL WATERWAY OPEN AND FAST!
Every Law in the book is being violated by them. I have been fully debriefed by Vice President JD Vance, Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner, on the meeting that took place in Islamabad through the kind and very competent leadership of Field Marshal Asim Munir, and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, of Pakistan.
They are very extraordinary men, and continuously thank me for saving 30 to 50 million lives in what would have been a horrendous War with India.
I always appreciate hearing that — The amount of Humanity spoken of is incomprehensible.
The meeting with Iran began early in the morning, and lasted throughout the night — Close to 20 hours. I could go into great detail, and talk about much that has been gotten but, there is only one thing that matters — IRAN IS UNWILLING TO GIVE UP ITS NUCLEAR AMBITIONS!
In many ways, the points that were agreed to are better than us continuing our Military Operations to conclusion, but all of those points don’t matter compared to allowing Nuclear Power to be in the hands of such volatile, difficult, unpredictable people.
My three Representatives, as all of this time went by, became, not surprisingly, very friendly and respectful of Iran’s Representatives, Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf, Abbas Araghchi, and Ali Bagheri, but that doesn’t matter because they were very unyielding as to the single most important issue and, as I have always said, right from the beginning, and many years ago, IRAN WILL NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON

I love this. No massive air strikes except in retaliation. Those who paid Iran a ransom will not profit. It is Iran that is responsible for oil not flowing. China is the big loser.
The only bad mark is that Iran will surely resume missile salvos against Israel. This will force Israel to continue air raids over Iran. Hopefully, Israel can take out Hezbollah quickly.
Perhaps, Israel could do US a solid and blow up some rail bridges.
Just sayin
Like the one in eastern Iran heading towards China? That one? HELL YES!!!
President Trump says the US will block traffic in the Straights of Hormuz. With no serious negotiation with Iran, the stakes are being raised higher to pressure an end to Iranian control.

We have to stop saying CONgress doesn’t get it.
THEY GET IT AND DON’T CARE!
They are no longer for the American people, it is money , and satanic pedo sex they care about.
