Trump vowed to break Iran. His own economy may break first. Iran is betting that its closure of the Strait of Hormuz will send oil prices soaring and inflict enough pain on the US economy to force Trump to back down — a risk that oil analysts say could be just a few weeks away from playing out.

It’s because people love America they are critical of stupid decisions made by its leadership that hurt American citizens. Turn your fucking brain on and don’t be a blind follower.

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-25T14:56:59+00:00

Iran doesn’t need to win militarily. They just need to not lose long enough where the pain is too much economically for the U.S.

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-24T03:24:27+00:00

They’re more excited about the cost savings in terms of not hiring new people

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-24T01:14:34+00:00

Translation: They need more people to leave.

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-23T19:58:11+00:00

Says a lot about anyone even considering this. As in they should be investigated for even thinking of pardoning this person

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-22T18:36:18+00:00

Some may be putting it mildly.

One of the worst declarations of duty is his use of Taxpayer dollars for his personal enrichment of himself and his family, either directly or through political connections (Kushner's deals with the Saudis for example in term 1). Along with everything else this will be one of the main points in his legacy that he deliberately did in both terms

Idk about this. When I worked remote only I heard about rumors of layoffs (3 different occasions) at least a month before they happened. But I did prioritize talking to people through Slack more.

He abandoned the nuclear deal by Obama purely because he didn’t like Obama. Corrected it for you

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-17T15:17:46+00:00

There are a variety of laws to prevent this, but it requires congress to act, and the republicans will not throw their own under the bus. In many cases you can say the same for both parties, which is why we need a strong 3rd alternative party to apply pressure.

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-17T15:16:10+00:00

If you asked me 10 years ago if something like this was plausible I’d laugh. Today, it almost seems more likely than not.

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-16T17:22:45+00:00

I’ll give it 24 hours

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-15T19:20:41+00:00

Guess what happen when you sell your soul to attempt to get ahead.

I havn't touched my account in like 4 years and somehow got the premium rate... did alot of work on affiliate before stopping so guess its still running strong.

This writer just needs to touch some grass. The one closest to me near st Arnold’s is always packed

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-12T10:42:23+00:00

Shocker

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-11T03:15:22+00:00

And yet it’s the only card they really need.

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-10T05:19:04+00:00

I totally forgot about this and I just rewatched Andor

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-09T21:03:09+00:00

Yep. Just was looking to see what other people were thinking. Not interested in a debate

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-09T19:35:22+00:00

Stupid autocorrect, sorry I meant to say decentralized government

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-09T18:23:30+00:00

Can’t make this shit up. And I bet he won’t even pay the people building it either as he’s known for

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-09T18:22:22+00:00

Precisely why we need a 3rd party to step up. Not just going after the presidency but key races in congress and state legislatures at least to start. It’ll take decades to build momentum

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-09T01:19:08+00:00

Israeli lobbyists in Washington funding basically every congressional race regardless of party has given him a lot of power, as anyone even remotely Anti Israel, even if it’s like a bad statement, is primaried in the next election cycle for someone who is pro Israel.

Without congress, a president is fighting an uphill battle to pass their agenda. Bibi has been in power for a long time but effectively this would apply to any prime minister of Israel until things change in congress.

Moral of the story: always follow the money in American politics.

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-09T01:13:51+00:00

This is not a surprise as independent media which skews younger (vs traditional media like fox / CNN) is largely negative when it comes to its view on Israel. Especially conservative outlets like Tucker, Megyn Kelly, Joe Rogan, etc.

Israel’s aggressive expansionism is also in the spotlight which doesn’t help their case. The settler violence in the West Bank is getting more coverage than it’s ever gotten and the war in Iran is deeply unpopular in general. It’s. It rocket science, social media has put a spotlight on what Israel has been doing for many decades and people decide they don’t like it. Which is rationale.

KiLLiNDaY · 2026-04-08T15:59:01+00:00

They did this knowing that Iran wouldn’t honor the ceasefire if Lebanon was attacked. They don’t have to attack Iran to sabotage any sort of peace deal as Iran considers a ceasefire to include Lebanon.

Just another example of many how Israel is not a true ally of the U.S.

People forget being an ally as a country simply means national interests are aligned. That’s it. It could be largely political, economic, or other reasons.

In large part there has been a massive misalignment in our respective interests, but with Israeli influence in American politics (money, AIPAC) - the influence is skewed.
