It speaks for itself.
This is election interference. Vance is a Putin wannabe. Show me the money. Who owns Orban?
The EU have anti-corruption laws.
Why is Orban exempt?

Do not replace the crashed jets.
There is no sense in throwing good money after bad. Hegseth hasn’t finished destroying the USA military. Why put more jets on the flight line when they are only going to crash with incompetent leadership?
No more replacements and no additional military spending. Dear God, someone please have a conscience.
They were correct in their veto.
At what point does the world respect the sovereign borders of Iran? The national waters of Iran are theirs to control. I believe passage fees are to be respected and until that happens no one has a right to do anything about Hormuz.
Genocide is an illegal order.
Congress needs to speak out and back the military. Trump’s statement are clearly genocidal and there is no military officer in any branch of serve required to respect those orders.
They are after a lot more.
No doubt Dan Driscoll is looking at the opportunity these hackers have in interrupting national security. Hegseth is nobody! The risk is too high for amateurs.
Every member of the military released by Trump should be making plans to return as soon as possible. They have friends that need to work their magic to bring them back.
Yes. This is mutiny with side arms.
First time in 20 years. Why?
It was taken down by a shoulder mounted rocket launcher. Why? In competency in leadership. The incompetence is everywhere. From self inflicted damage to naval ships to crashes of fueling jets that result in big holes in the ground destroying runways and killing soldiers. 20 years and not a single jet was shot down until Trump.
Trump’s 100 percent MAGA approval.
Propaganda works.
Those liberated and on the take. Pardons for wrong doing, hate of anyone but Caucasians, and legislators held hostage to choke off the USA Constitution. What could be better?
Now, if Trump could only penetrate every other media outlet in the world, he could be king, eliminate all the darkies, and enslave all others for his comfort.
And above all else, corruption works. What the Supremes have done here is unconstitutional. They crossed the line into Congress. Amazing.
Bannon always had his 5th Amendment rights. He just had to respect the subpoena. The Supremes are very wrong in this instance.
For MAGA that is the perfect world. A king that pulls the levers of power to defeat the Rule of law. Thank God regulations are gone, live and breath at your own risk.
MAGA is a very violent, sexist, racially and religiously bigoted, Stone Age culture.

Manipulation or sincerity?
Iran is basically a third world country. It is no different than other similar countries such as North Korea. The country has no culture that creates and maintains research and development of sophisticated military systems, hence, the ease of owning nuclear weapons.
Iran has enemies. North Korea is sitting next to China/Russia. Iran is in the Middle East where everything is measured by religious purity. The Christian Nationalists in the USA are like that within the USA borders, religious purity. We see a lot of the religious purity play out at the Supreme Court. It is the one place where God overrides the USA Constitution.
The question with any third world country when it comes to denuclearization or peace is the measure of progress. Not ultimatums or timelines, but, inspections by the only organization qualified and disinterested enough to be trusted, the IAEA.
The way compliance is achieved with such negotiations is through incentives. Those incentives have to mean something. These are highly impoverished countries. If better status of the people can be achieved as in healthcare, the progress of the treaty becomes measurable and benevolent. Benevolence has its rewards. But, achieving such benevolence requires investment from the wealthiest countries on the planet as with USAID.
Replacing USAID with hegemony is illegal.
Trump justifies his violent regime by complaining the immigrants or Iran is manipulating “the system that doesn’t work.” And nothing works. NATO doesn’t work. Voting machines don’t work. Voting always results in manipulation and takes Trump’s power away.
Nothing works except killing and destruction and ICE. Two hundred and fifty years of growth into the greatest democracy ever to be on Earth, but, nothing works, huh? I will tell you what does not work. Donald Trump does not work.
Translation/interpretation
I never listen to a Trump speech or talk because it says nothing. It is a performance. I don’t find him entertaining. I never found his TV show entertaining. I found his sexual assault of women interesting.
I listened to an intelligent journalist talk about an assessment of a Trump speech.
Advise:
When listening to any kind of Trump talk/speech/verbal assault it requires the ability to translate even though spoken in English.
Translation of “Trump,” is easy once the character of the racketeer is applied.
“Timeline.”
What emotion is affiliated with a timeline? Limit setting. Expectations that are measurable. Calm. Everything is under control. It is an excuse for doing nothing. What happens at the end of a timeline? Patience and extension or explosion/trauma. So the calm remains until the anticipation of the end.
“Natural.”
Washing his hands of any responsibility. The conclusion will occur outside any manmade intervention. No cost. Dropping the ball. Donald is relieved of any further understanding.
When translating “Trump,” it is never at face value. Donald is always slippery.
Untrustworthy.
Go ahead. Negotiate with that. Negotiations with Trump can ONLY be based by the most OTHER competent person at the table.
7000 miles above the surface.
Seven thousand miles is not that far.
They are mapping the moon. I can’t imagine it changed that much in more than 4.5 billion years, but, humans see it differently. It is no longer made of green cheese (Medieval times).
It is just more of the same from Trump.
According to this it sounds as though Iran is ready for peace. They want war reparations. Good. They will open the Straits based on transit fees. That is good, too.
The Panama Canal is not free. Neither are the waterways of Iran. That is appropriate use of a country’s assets. Iran will have to provide for a safe passage if it is collecting fees. So, the issue with pirates won’t exist if in sovereign waters.

I see nothing that is an unreasonable demand from Iran. The leadership wants to get back to governance with a focus on prosperity. That is fantastic. It is a whole new picture for the Gulf countries. I would expect the regional countries to welcome these ideas.
Those transit fees can be a new source of income from a country with a higher rate of impoverishment.
The article below is from the Iranian Resistance. They should be brought into the peace talks. They could settle their complaints along with the countries of the area. I am sure the stark reality of unprecedented war would bring an interesting focus to their leadership.
I think bringing any of the resistance in for talks may result in a clear understanding of their grievances. It could be a turning point resulting in greater domestic peace. It is possible. There are many Iranians jailed that may very well be some of Iran’s best citizens. The leadership should not be afraid of differences in opinion. The resistance has not been violent. There are demonstrators, not criminals.
Greater understanding can lead to greater domestic peace. The leadership can express a reverence for the faith without victimizing citizens with different ideas.

Iran used to be a more open society. Religion is good for tolerance to open communication. There is so much promise with the ideas Iran has for itself, there simply cannot be anymore violence.
The real problem is the USA Republican majority in Congress. They must restrain Trump. Leaders of both parties may very well need to be part of the peace talks as well.
Investigate the 2020 elections?
That is beating a dead horse. It is a waste of taxpayer dollars. Are the Republicans ever going to be serious about governance? It doesn’t seem like it.
It is supposed to get better after resignations, not worse.
Iran is refusing ?
Iran knows regardless the noble effort it does not have a trustworthy partner in the agreement. That what Iran has learned from previous agreements with Rubio.
Pakistan is leading to peace.
Pakistan has delivered a realistic solution toward peace. The proposal achieves all goals.
The problem is this, politics. The world has witnessed a vacillating USA president with statements that are vulgar to those of severe threats to estimations of complete disinterest. Those extremes are not serious statements of intent. Those statements are supposed to reveal a path forward for Trump’s political ambitions. Trump doesn’t care what he does. He doesn’t care about Iran or Iran’s people. He only cares about the number of potential voters in the USA that will provide a political victory.
If walking away from the conflict yielded larger numbers of votes as opposed to bombing Iran into the Stone Age, then that is what he will do. If swearing and screaming gets him more voters than that is what he will go.
This sort of behavior is typical at the end of an American political season when driving voters to the polls is based in rhetoric and nothing serious. It is called, “the silly season.” It is a method of getting the attention of voters not normally involved in voting.
I am convinced his behavior is not about anything except his own political agenda/outcome. He will bomb Iran. He doesn’t care. If it brings voters on board he will destroy the country and people. Trump is about power, not governance.
The majority Republican Congress is stated to be focused on war and not governance.
Pakistan should point out Trump’s crimes to him as well as a peace proposal that balances all interests. If Pakistan fails it will be because it does suit Trump’s politics. We have witnessed the bombing by Hegseth of civilians and civilian infrastructure in Iran. The liberation of the people won’t be achieved if they are dead.

It is a competition never to be used.
The United States of America is in chronic competition for the most sophisticated national defense systems. The country’s intelligence of preparedness competes with China, Russia, and North Korea.
The United States of America likes to measure it’s ability to be secure by being involved in friendly competition elsewhere, like the Olympics, scientific cooperation in remote places like Antarctica and the famous seed bank of Svalbard, Sweden.
There are astounding discoveries made like the Hadron Collider at CERN. E=mC2 is real. It is law. It is not theory. Any idea what that means for understanding this world and the future in understanding our universe? You know. Mars. Interstellar. All that stuff that never turns a profit.
The knowledge of the universe isn’t known yet and treating a pain in the butt attitude about who is the biggest and baddest and has the most control IS A ROYAL WASTE of time and resources.
Enough of this petty attitude that take away the lives of people without a second thought. There are international laws being completely disregarded because a couple of government authorities want control of the world.
KNOCK IT OFF.
This is our Defense Department, not a cache of toys.
These are not “Sissy” observations.
These experts have no interest in politics. They have a legal practice and know what they are talking about. Being a president or Prime Minister within sovereign land and out of reach doesn’t mean it is okay.
It is completely wrong to order an entire military to kill and destroy just because it is possible. In the face of civil methods to end conflict and preserve life ordering a military to move against others is barbaric.
Belligerence must be replaced with trust. Those are not the words of fools. The USA is capable of greatness outside the realm of violence.
Human existence is not guaranteed by the death of an entire population of others.
Donald stop. To begin today is Easter Sunday.
Christians celebrate the risen lord on Easter Sunday. While the crucifixion is a focus, the risen lord over coming his death is a joyful day.
Because, we simply don’t. Obviously the USA is capable of great power that destroys nations of people. We simply don’t. It is called morality.
People are weary of having their sensibilities insulted. War is not a topic for today. Our astronauts are in sight of the moon.
Additionally, the level of hate being displayed flies in the face of international norms. This isn’t 27 BC.
It occurred to me the Trump administration has no working knowledge of why international norms exist. Trump takes example of other powers in the world and figures, “Why can’t I do it?”

Civilians and civilian infrastructure is sacred. Attacking energy grids, food supplies, farmers, and hospitals are illegal. The death of children is not only grossly immoral, it is illegal. It is murder. Child soldiers are out of the question. They usually indicate any regime in trouble as it is resorting to children to carry out atrocities.
