CALLING TRUMP'S BLUFF!
Trump says he'll likely hold phone talks with Iran today and claims they both want to make a deal.
HOWEVER......
Iranian Foreign Minister says there are no talks with the United States, claims President Trump's statements are an attempt to lower energy prices and buy time for military plans.

“Trump’s ICE airport idea came after a radio host pitched it on Fox News”
It is very funny that ICE didn’t change anything about their MO for the airport deployments.
The dude is wearing plate armor with a bunch of shit tactically stuck to it, to stand behind a Black woman sitting in a chair, doing the actual work, without getting paid.
Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners investment firm just filed a disclosure showing over $6 billion in assets under management for 6 clients in 2025 (compared to $4.8B in 2024 and $3B in 2023), my latest:
OAKLAND — California Attorney General Rob Bonta yesterday secured a ruling from the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon blocking U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s December 18, 2025 declaration (Kennedy Declaration). The Kennedy Declaration claims that gender-affirming care fails to meet professionally recognized standards of care and that, as such, HHS may disqualify any doctors or hospitals that provide such care from federal healthcare programs like Medicare and Medicaid.
Stop referring to Steve Sweeney as a "journalist". He works for Russian state television. He's a propagandist. Even the current DOS website notes that RT moved beyond being a media entity and is "engaged in information operations, covert influence, and military procurement".

Toxic oil waste is increasingly shooting out of the ground in Oklahoma, contaminating the state’s drinking water.
We found that regulators identified 2,000 problem wells in a 2021 report. Then they ignored their findings.

Oklahoma took on an ambitious project to catalog all of the state’s injection wells, which shoot toxic waste generated by oil drilling back into the ground. Despite records showing risk of drinking water pollution, the state chose not to act.
Unsurprisingly the US’s statement on reasons for going to war with Iran was plagiarised from an Israeli think thank document written by a past AIPAC employee…
The most definitive White House statement purporting to justify the Israel-US war on Iran was its March 2, 2026 statement entitled "The Iranian Regime's Decades of Terrorism against American Citizens". https://t.co/1Z7PI6oWE0 After a brief editorial opening, the article lists 44 incidents with a total of 992 US deaths. The source of the data wasn't given. Where did it come from? Unlike the Iraq war or the Russia collusion allegation, the reporting didn't come from an intelligence assessment, flawed or otherwise. It turns out that the list was plagiarized by the White House from a June 19, 2025 list (https://t.co/WqQy3itnnE) prepared by a former AIPAC employee (Tzvi Kahn) for a think tank (FDD) founded "to provide education to enhance Israel's image in North America". The think tank's original identity was "EMET (Hebrew for 'truth')". The June 19, 2025 publication was literally on the eve of the first US bombing of Iran on June 21, 2025. In this thread, I'll compare each and every item in the White House statement to the corresponding item in the original list by the former AIPAC employee. The list is virtually identical. Any slight changes are always in the change of ratcheting up the underlying allegation.
