As The old saying goes, hit them where it hurts the most, in their piggybank.
I’m elated that President Donald Trump finally came up with a more suitable means of persuasion than bombing the shit out of Iran and killing millions of innocent people.
I hope that people around the world recognize his diplomacy. He’s got a lot of bridges to cross yet, and many to repair.
Now, what I would like to see is other countries that benefit from this blockade Link arms with The United States and make this chain a lot stronger.
The way I see it, the only way that there can be bloodshed is if Iran retaliates militarily against the United States.
Once again, the saddest part of this military operation is the damage inflicted on the innocent people of Iran. Hypothetically, this conflict/war with Iran can go on for years.
Whatever the outcome, I hope it is a peaceful solution for all concerned. Bloodshed on either side, even of only one person, is one person too many?

Based on the 1830 U.S. Federal Census, there were approximately 3,775 free black slaveholders. These individuals owned roughly 12,000 to 13,000 enslaved people, representing a small fraction of the total slave population. A significant number of these owners, particularly in the Upper South, held family members to prevent them from being separated.
Sasse, battling stage 4 pancreatic cancer, says both parties rely on amplifying fringe voices rather than solving problems
To put it in layman’s terms, they’re all full of shit. All talk and no action. The biggest thing they are concerned about is how they can feather their own nests and enrich their coffers.
95% of them are nothing but parasitic leeches sucking the blood dry from the government. Maybe 98.
They are living proof that there is no honor among thieves.
I still believe that they should be paid on an incentive program, the harder they work, the more they get paid.
One thing that resonates in my mind the most is the lack of concern the politicians have for the people who put them in office. Whenever the government shuts down, they have voted in that their page checks do not stop.

Yes, members of the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate continue to receive their pay during a government shutdown.
While hundreds of thousands of federal employees may be furloughed or forced to work without pay, congressional salaries are protected by the Constitution and funded through permanent appropriations.
So you tell me if they give a fuck about the people who put them in office.
David Hasselhoff and his wife Hayley Roberts were seen hiking together in Calabasas, California, on April 6, 2026. (Backgrid USA)
The gray old mare ain’t what he used to be.
In a rare public sighting, the 73-year-old actor and the 45-year-old model were photographed while hiking Monday. Hasselhoff wore a white T-shirt with black sweatpants, a black baseball cap and black-rimmed eyeglasses. Roberts sported a white T-shirt with cap sleeves, black leggings and a blue baseball cap along with a pair of black sunglasses.
Who rattled his cage and finally woke this guy up? We haven’t heard shit from him since his whole Iran fiasco started!!
Here’s another guy who must have had something on Donald Trump, for Donald to give him the tap for the vice presidency
From what I can see, all he’s doing is going around the world on the taxpayers’ dime, pissing people off. This guy has a shit personality; there are not many people do not like him.
Everywhere he is gone, he attracted gigantic crowds that booed the hell out of him and his family. He is not only disliked here in the USA, but he’s disliked around the world.
Maybe he caught Donald Trump in a compromising position.
I am sure thrilled that Donald Trump took the diplomatic road toward ending the conflict with Iran. This will certainly put him back in the good graces of many people around the world.
But just like his personality. He was a very complex guy, and it’s very hard to read him. I hope you learned something from this experience.
Iran is accusing Israel of violating the conditional ceasefire announced by President Trump by continuing its war with Hezbollah in Lebanon. Iranian media outlets say Tehran is suspending tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz and considering pulling out of the deal with Washington over Israel’s actions.
It seems pretty apparent that Israel wants to keep this thing going. They are the ones who are benefiting from it the most. I say it’s time to scale back our arrangements/ Generosity with Israel.
Based on past experience, they’re going to bleed the United States for all they can. On a scale from 1 to 10, For honesty and integrity, I may give Israel a 4.
I would love to see Donald Trump open up his eyes and recognize the fact that Israel is draining the shit out of the United States in every way they can.
The full focus of his mission is to ensure that the United States and all of its territories are protected. With the billions that we are pissing-away on other countries, it could have been used to clean up our own catastrophic infrastructure, social unrest and get the USA back to where we used to be.
Being that President Trump began charging other countries for our protection. I am wondering how much Israel is kicking in for all of the assistance we’ve been giving them. LET ME TAKE A WILD GUESS.
AI
Israel has not paid the United States to be protected; rather, the United States has provided over $300 billion (inflation-adjusted) in total economic and military aid to Israel since 1948. This makes Israel the largest cumulative recipient of U.S. foreign assistance since World War II.
Is this fuckin joke or what??? It has to be 10 or 20 times that amount. There have to be some substantial envelopes going back and forth.
I would conclude that enough is enough. Time to shut The water off and start taking care of your own.
I would like to commend Donald Trump for his Decision not to drop the bombs on Iran. If I were he, I would instruct Israel if they continue to break the treaty, their water was cut off permanently.
Iran is accusing Israel of violating the conditional ceasefire announced by President Trump by continuing its war with Hezbollah in Lebanon.

It is too bad that neither one of them are very trustworthy. We don’t know who to believe.
President Trump’s ceasefire with Iran draws praise from world leaders
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday he supports President Donald Trump’s two-week ceasefire with Iran. In a Truth Social post, Trump suggested Iran was ready to reach a peace agreement and said the U.S. would help manage traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.
Short and sweet. I have some renewed faith in Donald Trump today. Let’s hope that this frame of mind continues in this positive direction.
As I alluded to yesterday, I think that the human shields gave him an out to step back and not look bad. As we all know, image is very important to Donald Trump.
I cannot say for certain whether this scenario has reached its climax yet. If I had to guess, I would say no.
This morning I would like to give Donald Trump three thumbs up.
Trump deadline for Iran ticks closer as Islamic republic rejects temporary ceasefire
President Donald Trump has set an 8 p.m. ET deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz or else the U.S. will begin targeting the nation’s power plants and bridges Tuesday. Iran has rejected proposals put forward by the U.S., and Trump in turn shut down a 10-point plan from Tehran on Monday, saying it was “not good enough.”
The resolution should not be about ego or “I GOT YOU”; it should be about common sense and what is best for all mankind.
If Trump goes ahead with this insane bombing mission, he is going to open a deadly/catastrophic can of worms that will be too big to close. There has to be an amicable solution to this delemma.
TRUMP’S WAY OUT: Based on the fact that Iran has stationed thousands of their people/ Human Shields around the strategic bombing targets, I think there is a way for Donald Trump to save face, something he is big on, and call off the bombing. He certainly does not want to be responsible for the death of tens of thousands of innocent people.
Trump totally missed the boat as far as evaluating the tenacity of the Iranian people.
I don’t see either side backing down, and this could turn into a disastrous situation, of which mankind has never seen the likes of it.
He and his advisors should have seen all of the negative possibilities, including the closing of the Strait of Hormuz. I think he took the opposition too lightly.
You can bet your sweet asses that Iran will retaliate, and the can of worms will continue to get bigger.
If Trump goes through with this, it will not be the end of the game, but just the beginning.
I don’t see how he can give the order to bomb with all these innocent people’s lives at stake.
I am sure that O-bomb-a is celebrating the fact that he was the one who financed this deadly operation when he released billions of dollars back to them.
Negotiations and sanctions are the only resolution.
President Donald Trump called out NATO, and several countries for not assistant U.S. forces in the war with Iran.
In a sharp rebuke of NATO, Trump called the intergovernmental military alliance of 32 member states, a “paper tiger.”
He further criticized, Australia, Japan and South Korea.
“We’ve got 50,000 soldiers in Japan to protect them from North Korea,” Trump said. “We have 45,000 soldiers in South Korea to protect us from Kim Jong Un.”
“Japan didn’t help us or Australia didn’t help us,” he added. “South Korea didn’t help us. And then you get to NATO. NATO didn’t help us. There were some countries that did.”
He cited help from Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.
“The support that we received from NATO and some of our other supposedly-friendly nations was little to none”.
Trump is absolutely correct in his assumption and in vocalizing his feelings, straight-up and to the point. The main thing the public can do without is his compulsive lying. That one bad habit of his destroys all the good he has accomplished.
There was a big old boy I used to work with many years back that continually faked his physical condition by putting on phony heart attacks. Through the years he must have had 10 or 15 of them. After a while everyone knew he was bullshitting. Didn’t pay any attention to him. The fact of the matter is, when the real attack came around, nobody believed them and he almost.
As I said so many times before if Donald Trump could clean his act up and be more forthright instead of bullshitting people, Not directly insulting everyone or everything, someday he may be the president that he said he would be “the best of all times”
Should he have invaded Iran?? Probably yes but the way he went about it was not very tactful and he hurt a lot of people’s feelings. A little more diplomacy could have gone a long way.
If in all of his rhetoric, he was more Diplomatic and more presidential, we would be looking at an entirely different situation.
Based on past experiences with our supposed supporting neighbors, who we have been protecting for decades, when it comes time for them to pay their share of the tab, they run scared like a chicken with their fuckin head cut off.
They all have been sucking the USA dry for years, eating at the big buffet, and when the time comes to pay the check, they all fuckin disappear.
Do they have a right to be pissed off at how Donald Trump is handling most of the situation? Absolutely yes, but on the other side of the coin, they should be ashamed of themselves for taking advantage of the United States all these years by not contributing their fair share.
For the most part we can label the majority of them as fuckin parasitic mooches.
Pay up, ladies, and let’s get this show on the road, making sure that Iran is not a threat to the entire world. Quit sitting at the buffet table stuffing your face and playing the Houdini act when the bill comes. Iran is not only a threat to the United States but to the entire world, and probably less to the USA because of our geographic location. If you are torn as to which way to go, just think of how deceitful, untrustworthy and conniving they have been all these years.
From here on in I would like to see our allies unite with us and once and for all put these people where they belong. Start with sincere diplomacy and end with military action if they do not cooperate. The opportunity has to be given to them. Bleeding hearts finished last.

DHS slams ‘insane’ 5-year plea deal for illegal immigrants who admitted fatal stabbing in Virginia
Maldin Anibal Guzman-Videz and Luis Alonzo Sort-Portillo stabbed a man to death at an Oakton park in 2024, DHS said
DHS says Maldin Anibal Guzman-Videz and Luis Alonzo Sort-Portillo — who are both in the U.S. illegally — stabbed a man to death at a park and walking trail in Oakton, Virginia, in July 2024. The victim’s body was later discovered by a community member in a wooded area, prompting a police response.
Despite the severity of the crime, DHS said the two suspects have been offered a plea deal that would result in just five years in prison and the eventual release of “two monsters” back on American streets.
I say, turn the scumbags over to the family of the victims for some down-home justice.
Tell me this country has not gone completely insane!! We are digging our own graves one shovel at a time.
