Israel is attacking Iran
Just look at the situation rationally. The head of these negotiations, Witkoff, is a Jewish real estate lawyer, with NO diplomatic experience. Iām sure he was kicking ass and taking names.

Israel is attacking Iran
Those news reports all have the perspective from the U.S. side. As I posted earlier, Iran has been highly incented to just stall, with sanctions scheduled to expire in a few months. There was unlikely any deal. Thatās just typical Trump administration bullshit lying.

Israel vs everyone war thread
Well, there wouldnāt have needed to be a choice if not for a previous disastrous decision to break the previous agreement. Just pointing out that Iāve seen a few posts about how Iran, the Palestinians, etc have already lost and they need to realize that. Bullshit. That is a very naĆÆve view. Itās exactly why there has been terrorism for decades. Itās never āoverā when you are fucking with other people.

I donāt think some posters on here realize or understand that Israel attacking Iran with American support is going to lead to significant future attacks on Americans. We are in the early stages of whatās going to become likely a multiyear shitshow imo.

Israel is attacking Iran
Extremely important Threads post about how Trump made a disastrous mistake in dumping the previous nuclear deal because they can no longer keep sanctions on Iran. They run out in October and the U.S. is powerless to stop it. Iran hasnāt been negotiating with the US at all. Theyāve just been waiting for the clock to run out. https://www.threads.com/@anmonck/post/DK1UvTaKbZ0?xmt=AQF0eb1M9R9g-SAh6u8ND2DoDhzUcct8xl3cYl5S8vdGcQ

Israel is attacking Iran
Iām not saying this was a good strategy. I have no idea. I just think that the view Trump couldnāt stop Israel, or that Israel proceeded without US approval is not realistic imo.

Israel is attacking Iran
I donāt have the same view as most on here regarding Trump. I believe Trump cooked this up with Israel as a back up plan to talks. With talks failing, Trump said fuck it letās have Israel attack them so the U.S. doesnāt get blamed.

Air India B787 crash
I went to Twitter for the first time in a long time, and one of the first posts from some dumb woman was that exact question. probably a Russian bot. There is also a video circulating that a guy on the plane two hours earlier showed that nothing electronic on the flight was working. AC, entertainment system, attendant lights, etc

Who is missing a two year-old?
A few weeks ago my wife and I were coming home and noticed a young girl walking down the street by herself, maybe 5 or 6 years old. We turned back around and by the time we reached her she was another several hundred yards down the road, no one in sight. We pulled over, shut off the car, got out and tried to talk to her, figuring out whatās going on. She didnāt know her last name, her parentās name, her address, where she came from, nothing. She didnāt know whether she had brothers or sisters or a dad. She gave conflicting answers. it was crazy. She wanted to get in our car! But we said oh hell no. I called police. They came out within about 15 minutes. As I prepared for the police officer to shoot me, neighbors were driving by whispering about our abduction of a child. After the officer also struck out asking her questions I got the bright idea to post the situation and her first name on Facebook. Within 10 minutes I think we had a thousand houses in the neighborhood trying to figure out who she was. I got contacted by the PTA. Nuts. We finally left her with the police officer. When we drove back by an hour later we ran into the cop and he said the parents were at dinner when their Facebook blew up with info about their daughter. They rushed back home. Babysitter had their head up their ass and hadnāt noticed she slipped out and was gone.

Johntay Cook dismissed from the football team.
Holy shit I leave for vacation over two weeks ago after reading a few celebrity encounter posts, and itās still going. That was entertaining catching up. Some funny stuff. Scholz getting told heās a terrible actor by Eckert still has me cracking up.

2021 - Is inflation finally back in the conversation?
Not really. It doesnāt look at what really matters. Debt as a % of GDP. And it doesnāt show who actually had control over a budget when it was set. This post from the mortgage thread does. The Republicans are not the wonderful stewards of money they claim to be, and Donald Trump was and is looking to be again a disaster. Fiscal Year President Responsible House Control Senate Control Deficit (USD) % of GDP 2012 Barack Obama (D) Republican Democratic $1.327 trillion 8.5% 2013 Barack Obama (D) Republican Democratic $680 billion 4.1% 2014 Barack Obama (D) Republican Democratic $485 billion 2.8% 2015 Barack Obama (D) Republican Republican $442 billion 2.4% 2016 Barack Obama (D) Republican Republican $585 billion 3.1% 2017 Barack Obama (D)ā Republican Republican $665 billion 3.4% 2018 Donald Trump (R) Republican Republican $779 billion 3.8% 2019 Donald Trump (R) Democratic Republican $984 billion 4.6% 2020 Donald Trump (R) Democratic Republican $3.132 trillion 14.9% 2021 Donald Trump (R)ā Democratic Republicanā ā $2.775 trillion 12.4% 2022 Joe Biden (D) Democratic Democratic $1.375 trillion 5.5% 2023 Joe Biden (D) Republican Democratic $1.695 trillion 6.3% 2024 Joe Biden (D) Republican Democratic $1.833 trillion 6.4% 2025 Joe Biden (D) Republican Democratic $1.9 trillion 6.5% Footnotes: ā Although Donald Trump was president during part of FY 2017 (starting January 20, 2017), the FY 2017 budget was mostly planned and signed into law during the Obama administration. Trump later signed supplemental appropriations. ā ā Senate control in FY 2021 was effectively split 50-50 after the January 2021 runoffs in Georgia, with Vice President Kamala Harris (D)casting tie-breaking votes, giving Democrats functional control starting late January 2021 ā but this occurred after the FY 2021 budget was largely set under Republican control. I think this chart sums it up pretty well. Barack Obama did a pretty good job as President keeping spending under or around 3% of GSP after the 2009 financial crisis died down. Trump was an absolute disaster because he panicked during Covid and wildly overspent. Biden was ridiculously overspending, and here we sit with Trump in office and in control over both houses of Congress and the House passed a budget that will be the worst yet. Specifically for FY 2026, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates that the deficit could rise by nearly $600 billion, bringing the total deficit to approximately $2.3 trillion, or about 7.3% of GDP . Fucking disaster.
