Operation Epic Epstein Fury: Stop, pay toll and more --

NYT reporting that under this ceasefire each ship will pay $2M to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. It was $0 before Trump launched this illegal war. 100-130 ships pass the Strait daily. Trump just gave Iran an extra $100M-$130M per day. Masterful gambit, sir. Impeach and remove this fascist—NOW.

The president is just posting his negotiating position on main. None of this is agreed to, and the fact that this is all he is asking for is a startling admission of U.S. strategic defeat. He is HOPING Iran will let him get back to a position worse than JCPOA.

Are you awake yet, mainstream corporate media? -- 

 

Good morning, mainstream media! Today you have a fresh opportunity to stop ignoring the biggest story around: the mental derangement of the person in charge of the deadliest killing force in the world.

Netanyahu's and Israel's favorability numbers in U.S. are tanking.  Look like Trump numbers. --

The Iran War has caused Americans to reassess, once more, their view of Israel. • 60% of American adults now have an _unfavorable_ view of Israel • That’s up from 53% last year and 42% in 2022. • In both political parties, a majority of adults under age 50 view Israel negatively (84% D, 57% R)
