Obama negotiates JCPOA w/Iran: partly unfreezes $2 billion Iran cash to get rid of uranium. Strait is open, international waters.

President Rottinghands McRagebaby tears up JCPOA, spends billions, gets people killed, then gives Iran _10x_ ($20 billion) to get uranium back to JCPOA levels, and Iran claims some of control over Strait.

An almost unimaginable failure: militarily, economically, navigationally, morally, politically; made things worse for US in every way possible.

Raskin: “The Dept. of Justice is now acting like in-house counsel for the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys, who together coordinated and directed the worst mass attack on the Capitol since the War of 1812. These astounding motions are an attempt to vaporize the verdicts rendered by American jurors and to pretend that these seditious conspiracies against our government never happened. They are an insult to the jurors..”

Remember in February, when Trump filed a ridiculous $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS, expecting a massive taxpayer-financed payout?

The IRS signaled in a new court filing that settlement talks are underway.

IRS signals negotiations with Trump over controversial $10 billion leak lawsuit

In a court filing, the agency said it and the president’s family are engaged in “discussions designed to resolve this matter and to avoid protracted litigation.”

YARBRO: “The term is BAIT AND SWITCH. We’re in the switch part.” Sen. @[email protected] blasts @GovBillLee’s $300,000,000/year voucher scam— sold as low income family aid, but mostly helping kids already in private schools. (Jack Johnson & Lamberth just doubled the budget buster anyway)

Justices side with oil and gas companies fighting environmental lawsuits

The Supreme Court is handing a win to oil and gas companies fighting lawsuits over coastal land loss and environmental degradation in Louisiana. The unanimous procedural decision gives the companies a new day in federal court after a state jury ordered Chevron to pay upward of $740 million to clean up damage to the state’s coastline, one of multiple similar lawsuits. The companies were backed by the Trump administration and argued that the case belongs in federal court because they began oil production and refining during World War II as U.S. contractors. Louisiana’s coastal parishes have lost more than 2,000 square miles of land over the past century.

“We’re making the wealthy even wealthier… THIS IS IRRESPONSIBLE OF US.” Senator Oliver savages @GovBillLee’s $300,000,000 per year private school voucher scam as Jack Johnson & William Lamberth expand an unproven program that explodes the state budget + drains💰from public schools.

He got the Strait closed, disrupted the entire global economy, exploded gas prices, wrecked our alliances, killed thousands of innocent people including young girls at a school, depleted American missile stockpiles, degraded our Middle East military bases, and destroyed America’s global standing only to get the Strait reopened on Iran’s terms and potentially give them $20 billion. The art of the deal!

Nobody declares victory after losses more often or as loudly as Donald Trump.
