US/Israel Launches Op Epic Fury Against Iran (5 Viewers)

[Horus]

What a great post; I both love it and it also makes me sad.

So, so true.

"The past 10 years government has been performative art"; I'm stealing that, but will give you a dollar every time I use it...................

First we had someone with zero political or military experience run the country for four years, then we had a 45 year empty suit hack politician run it (or so it seemed), now we're back to someone with zero political or military experience running it again.

It's stunning that as a nation, this is the best we can come up with.

It's staggering really.

Could be worse George, you could be in the UK and under the dominion of Keir starmer & his rent boys!

been around for over a year now...you won't hear it if you only listen to FOX...

"TACO" is a political term used to describe President Donald Trump's pattern of initiating high-stakes tariff threats, causing market volatility, and then delaying or reversing those policies, especially during the 2025–2026 tariff wars...

lot of stock traders made a ton of money on Wall Street trading once he threatens the economy of a country...then reneges his threat position...

Beyond trade and tariffs, it is also used to describe reversals on geopolitical threats, such as military ultimatums against Iran or other countries...

This trade involves buying on weakness during trade threats and benefiting from the subsequent rally when the policy is delayed or reduced causing a rebound and financial gain...an easy way to manipulate the market for financial gain if..."you're in the know"...

which to me is insider trading...

Never heard that one before; interesting hot take that one.

It’s been around for months.

It’s not an effective way of governing. Once or twice might be acceptable but as a constant tactic, no.

I don't watch CNN or MSNBC.

I think it was reported all over.

Tells you how much actual news or what passes for news I watch!!!!!! I mainly read a lot of different opposing viewpoints to keep current.

Yeah, I kind of figured that

 

[Warrior]

Yeah, I kind of figured that

Nothing gets by you does it.

 

[Warrior]

Yeah, I kind of figured that

Are you a far left/socialist/communist Democrat or a moderate/somewhat in the middle Democrat.

 

[Warrior]

Yeah, I kind of figured that

Do you ever actually watch FOX news; they're pretty critical of Trump and have guests on who are as well.

I'm not talking about Laura Ingram or Hannity, I'm talking about the programs during the day where they report actual news.

But believe whatever you want to believe, nothing I say is ever going to register with you, you've been out on Trump since January 6th, that's pretty clear.

As in crystal.

I'm not gonna go back and dig up a post you made years ago...and I can't quote it verbatim...but you should remember it...

it was so prophetic I will never forget it...

right after January 6th...and again I must paraphrase...

you posted...............................

"that after January 6th...you felt so dirty as an American...you had to go home and take a shower"...

maybe you forgot that post...I didn't...but again don't worry...

"nothing bad can happen...it can only good happen"...

As i watch people praise and celebrate Sir David Attenborough for reaching 100 years of age, I hope his message for nature and humanity will not be forgotten. Even today i read that Trump was talking about opening up national parks for hunting and fishing. Not to forget his Drill Baby Drill attitude to affect more environment. I really don't think he cares for anything other than making money and the power that goes with that. Wake up America. Greg.

Among other things, he wants to weaken the Endangered Species Act. It was through this act, as well as certain other measures, that the symbol of America, the bald eagle, was saved and brought back from extinction. Now, they want to eject another symbol of America that was neatly eradicated, the Buffalo, from certain federal lands.

What does how I felt about what happened have to do with you swearing off Trump and Republicans ever since?

One has nothing to do with the other.

When all else fails, you whip out the crying baby.

Solid work right here.

What ticks me off is one minute Iran is a threat to the Middle East, Europe and us (basically the world) and the government there must be removed which I agree with and the next minute he wants to make a deal with them and leave generations of the future to deal with them. They are all a bunch of nut jobs.
