At this point in the Iran war, my opinion is that what we’re seeing now is a maximum pressure campaign (from both sides) during negotiations. The maximalist threats (striking water desalination, energy infrastructure, cutting undersea cables, etc) are both sides showing their best cards. If Trump can get any nuclear concessions, it’s in his interest to take the deal. ‘Iran will not have a nuclear weapon.’ It’s also in Iran’s interest to sign a deal as this is their point of peak leverage with Trump up against the midterms. Very likely we get a ‘deal’ soon.

When Republicans get obliterated in the midterms, never forget the people who pushed Trump to start the most unpopular war in American history. Lonsdale, Ackman, Singer, Ellison, Maguire, Hegseth, Huckabee, Shapiro, Weiss, etc. Even Thiel publicly flipped recently to disassociate from this disaster.

Fairly obvious at this point that Trump did the war for ‘the lobby’ in exchange for protection for himself and his family. The level of crime inside this administration is off the charts and they’re the only group powerful enough to protect them.

Trump now trying to destroy the stock market and retirement accounts before the midterms after sending oil >$100 and launching the most unpopular war in American history. A bold political strategy, let's see how it pays off.

Seems like every day a new corruption scandal drops implicating someone from the administration. When the Republicans lose the midterms, there are going to be investigations for years going after these people.

Trump destroyed one of the greatest bull markets in history for a pointless war in Iran.

Trump might as well just bomb Iran tonight. Give us Black Friday and then a ‘Buy the dip!’ tweet on Monday. Trillions of dollars worth of market cap obliterated for a pointless war in Iran.

Trump will restart the war in Iran to distract from getting crushed in the midterms because he launched the war in Iran.

If Trump (with the Israelis) strikes Iranian critical infrastructure and the Iranians decide to retaliate against Israel, they only have to hit the desalination plant, 2 refineries, and the Dimona nuclear facility to essentially take Israel out.

The past few months have provided a perfect opportunity to see exactly what people ‘on our side’ are willing to go along with. Bomb little girls school, blow billions on war, critically deplete missile stockpiles, sacrifice US soldiers, etc. Frauds without principles or values.

The maximalist rhetoric from both sides indicates to me that we’re close to a deal with Iran. Perhaps I’m just optimistic, but consider this: It seems that the US has finally understood that we are in an escalation trap, where every escalation only harms us/our allies more than it does Iran. Iran has responded tit-for-tat to every one of our attacks and we’re now at the end of the road of maximalist threats on nuclear facilities, water desalination plants, energy infrastructure, and undersea internet cables. However, what worries me is that the US/Israel might not care if Gulf infrastructure is destroyed because this would benefit US oil/gas and frankly speaking, the destabilization of the Middle East is Israel’s primary objective. It also seems plausible that the US could try a Kurd/Balochi ground invasion and it’s unclear what the Iranian tit-for-tat response would be. Overall though, this war continues to be an absolute disaster on every level and every day I hope it ends. 🇺🇸

Stunning to think that in just 2 years Trump got us into a war with Iran, gave us $100 oil, and 7% mortgage rates. This is not what we voted for.

Who is the best person I can talk to about persistent wrist tendonitis/pain?

No one is going to do anything for you just because you align with them politically. You need to build something, and if you need funding, bring it to people you trust. The investors you should trust are likely inversely correlated to the size of their social media presence.

Nothing makes the propagandists more angry than when you clearly communicate something that is obviously true. They don’t even have to pay propagandists anymore, a few likes and a RT is enough to transform almost anyone.

This is going to be hard for a lot of you to accept over the coming years, but the truth is that you're being used by a cabal of elites who have hijacked the right-wing movement to advance their own foreign pet projects and domestic surveillance ops. The 'coalition' is a lie.

Benjamin Netanyahu is the type of leader who will intentionally endanger his population by striking Iran, knowing that people will die, just to improve his chances in the upcoming election. Israeli leadership does not share our values.

The US (or Israel) is about to strike Iran again because Netanyahu is losing in the polls and in active war, he performs better as a ‘strongman’. We may have dead US soldiers purely for the purpose of helping Bibi politically in a domestic election. This has to stop.
