Another Trump Ultimatum Ignored On Nov. 30, 2024, Trump said, "We require a commitment from these Countries that they will neither create a new BRICS Currency, nor back any other Currency to replace the mighty U.S. Dollar or, they will face 100% Tariffs, and should expect to say goodbye to...

We're in a race to see which happens first. Trump erodes the Constitution enough to gain unchecked power, or he is dethroned through death, disability, or impeachment. Once he's gone, and his criminal cohorts no longer have the possibility of a Trump pardon, the American people can be about...

Iran Calls Trump's Bluff. Trump Backs Down. That's my updated assessment. The Straight remains closed. Iran stands firm. Trump humiliated worldwide. Trump lied about the talks. Related posts Here: The Trump Card... and Here: The Trump Card...

What's Really Going On? What's Your Spin? I may be wrong about this but here's my best guess. Trump claims there have been "good and productive conversations" with Iran. Iran continues to deny that. Both of these are true on their face and easily verified. There is no doubt Trump said what he...

If you mean by TDS "Trump Distrust Syndrome" I'll agree. The man is a serial liar. That fact has been documented tens of thousands of times. My Grok prompt was not saved when I exited the session. It was something like "Trump posted on Truth Social about talks he had with Iran. Is this true...

You make a worthy point. In a war, both sides are prone to lie for propaganda purposes. But in this case, the question at hand is so clear that the truth can be easily discerned. To have talks, both sides must actually talk. If one side says they talked and the other side does not, it's pretty...

Regarding Trump's "I am pleased to report ... good and productive conversations" post, did it even enter your mind to see what Iran is saying about this? Did you think it might be wise to fact check Trump's post? It entered my mind and it took just seconds to learn that Iran has issued multiple...

I had an additional thought about this. The Grok info you shared describe exactly the devices with which sanctions are enforced. Trump lifted the sanctions, there by neutralizing every item on the list. Whether Iran collects payment for its oil in US dollars or Chinese Yuan, Trump is literally...

What Grok says about this was true until recently but two things make it less so today. 1. Iran is a full member of BRICS, which conducts foreign trade in their currencies, not the US Dollar exclusively like before. 2. The petro-dollar isn't what it used to be. The oil countries have been...

Trump Is Not a General or Military Strategist. He's a Fool With a Flamethrower. On March 21, on Truth Social, Trump said: "If Iran doesn't FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their...

You did not answer the question: If items 1-3 have been accomplished, how does Iran keep launching missiles at US targets, Israel, and targets in various other countries? Regarding the other, I do not own an electric bike. I live close enough to work to walk if need be. My days of paying $500...

It's a smart move to lift the sanctions on the sale of Iranian oil? Iran is killing US troops, destroying US facilities, and attacking Israel and other friendly nations (to the extent we have any friends left). And Trump admin lifts sanctions so oil money will more easily flow into Iran's...

If items 1-3 have been accomplished, how does Iran keep launching missiles at US targets, Israel, and targets in various other countries? Also, Trump previously called on the Iranian people to rise up and take control of their government, and for Iranian soldiers and police to surrender to the...

The Problem With Trump's Request for $200 Billion is Not What You Think The Department of Defense has a $1 trillion budget. News broke today that the Pentagon is going to ask Congress for an additional $200 billion, partly to replace the munitions it has use up in the war Trump illegally...

You and I agree that stock markets go up and down. My point is not about that. It's about how Trump loves to take credit for a rising market and ignores or blames Biden for a down market. I also agree that fuel prices will come down, but when? Next week? Next year? Before or after the...

Trump's DJT Stock Plunges to All-Time Low In the last two days, Trump's DJT stock (Trump Media) plunged -11% to a new, all-time low. The price this moment is $8.70/share. That's single digits. To investors, when a stock moves from double-digits to single digits, it gets one's attention. In Jan...

Update: Sales of newly built homes in January dropped 17.6% month over month to a seasonally adjusted, annualized pace of 587,000 units, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. That is the slowest pace since 2022.

We're already seeing this on social media, and I'm hoping (sincerely) that Americans can find their way to turn it around. On the extremes, Trump haters are pointing fingers at Trump lovers, laughing at the Trump lovers as they complain about their Trump-induced pain in their social media...

Do You Think Trump Will Tout The Stock Market Numbers Today? Yesterday, all three major indexes, Dow 30, S&P 500, and Russell 2000 set new lows. Stocks are lower now than anytime in 2026. Oil hit a new high at 110 per barrel. Interest rates are rising. This is just a warm-up. When the...

Donald Trump May Have Started World War III Peace talks in Geneva between the U.S., Russia, and Ukraine are officially on pause due to the escalating Middle East war. Ukraine has reportedly sent 201 drone experts to assist Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE in defending against Iranian Shahed...
