“Targets included missile launch sites and Iranian boats attempting to emplace mines. U.S. Central Command continues to defend our forces while using restraint during the ongoing ceasefire.”
The strikes come just hours after Trump said negotiations with Iran were “proceeding nicely.”

How do ceasefires work.
Had to wait for the stock/betting markets to adjust again is all.
The thing that amazes me is that media even bothers to report what Trump says about anything. The chances he’s lying is only exceeded by the chance that he has absolutely no fucking clue what he’s talking about.
This is it, the reckoning we have all suspected was on the way. The inevitable backlash of all America’s sins consolidated under one presidency. One violent, insular ignoramus to rule them all. A completely dysfunctional government laid bare for all to see. Decades of “full spectrum dominance” brought to its inevitable end. No nation has ever existed solely by the power of it’s military dominance. Every nation that has attempted to do so has fallen.
Great Depression later this year.
Why wait…
Anyone who thinks President JD Vance is going to end the the war is going to get rug pulled harder than folks holding the HawkTuhaCoin bags.
I have no illusion things will get better under the other motherfucker. I just want things to get worse for that one motherfucker.
He’ll die sooner or later.
Just tired of all the Nostrodamuses who think they’ve got the day pegged.
Nostradamus was a prophet of doom. I’m just a Joe Average who, after 18 months of having to watch this shitshow unfold, seeks some much-deserved solace in the knowledge that one particularly despicable sack of shit is finally with the worms.
Champagne is in the cooler, waiting to be popped. You’re not going to take this away from me, mate. ;)

There’s a line of shit out the door and around the corner to take his place. If Trump did not exist, Ted Cruz would be president and nothing would be any better.
These problems aren’t individualistic. They’re systematic. In a better world Trump would just be filling the shoes of Joan Rivers, not commanding a nuclear arsenal.
Losing sight of the reactionary forest for one big orange tree is how we ended up with Joe Biden flubbing it for four years during the Trump interregnum
If you’ve got haemorrhoids, it’s OK to want them gone, even if you know they’ve got underlying cause. Likewise, you can do both: see the systemic problems that enabled Trump, and still be happy to see the motherfucker meet his timely demise.

You’re just pointing to one orange bump and praying it goes away
You don’t have to be Nostrodamus to predict that the 80 year old man who really looks their age and has near monthly “routine” health checks and brags about passing the kinds of cognitive tests they only give when they think you have dementia is going to die soon…
I’ve been hearing he’s going to die soon for over a decade
I think people are getting their hopes too high expecting him to expire any day now. Actuarial tables for men give only like a 5-6% chance of death in a year for men his age. While he’s obviously not in peak condition, the average Americans those tables are based on certainly aren’t either and unlike most of them he does have the benefit of insane resources to throw at whatever medical challenge (ex. the experimental Covid therapy that saved his life when he got infected with that) and very regular scanning. Plus genetics is a factor and his dad lived to 93 while his mom got to 88.
it’s just a matter of time indeed.
Every week is like groundhog day. Trump declares victory, claims that peace talks are underway, and then they drop more bombs, without any deal being reached.
It amazes me that there are still people gullible enough to believe that this isn’t another forever war for us and that gas isn’t going back down any time soon.
It dropped 5% for the holiday weekend. Never seen that happen before. The art of the deal
There’s a sucker born every minute and 30+% of the population still think he’s a good president

Off an 80% spike since the year started.

As a person in the O&G industry, I regret to say he’s good for me. My salary/bonus is fully outrunning inflation. Nevermind the compound stock gains juicing my 401k.
Trump’s still shit in my book. But if I started out a Republican, why would I object to any of this shit?
A Global Crusade Against The Wretched Islam, ballooning profits, violent police actions against all those horrible minorities we don’t like, that cool new ballroom, kidnapping the president of Venezuela, our SCOTUS is rigging the next election, what’s not to love?
O&G was booming under Biden as well though? Like the endless expansion in the Permian Basin was going full throttle, just with a least some oversight. The companies weren’t even drilling all their leases because they didn’t want to drop the price of oil.

It was actively competing with Alt Energy that the federal government sought to subsidize and promote.
Nobody in the Biden administration was paying TotalEnergies a billion dollars to abandon plans to build offshore wind farms off the coasts of New York and North Carolina
Yeah, but what if it was booming EVEN MORE? Checkmate athiest…
It’s only a forever war is we don’t remove the motherfuckers who refuse to stop him.
November may be our last chance. I know not everyone here loves the Dems, but they really are our only hope at this point, and we need to support them in the general election.
jesus fuck what an incompetent malignant freak
What’s most fucked up about this is it is strictly 100% about manipulating the markets and making money, that’s it.
And that it happens every fucking Tuesday.
Find what you need, turn them into the enemy, fight them and steal what you wanted. It’s only failed a few times
The man has had a stroke, his face sags on one side unmistakably. Maybe it’s time to stop pretending that everything is okay? Swear Vance in and be done with the charade. It’s humiliating
Maybe we can take a break from 80-year-olds for a time. Is that communism?
What a loser
I mean he isn’t bombing anything. His idiot fanclub is.
Did the Pumpkinhead even have any deal?
His friends must’ve finished selling off their oil stocks.
And this moron was just bragging about how they reached an agreement with Iran to dispose of their uranium in the deal and this master negotiator just literally blew it up.
Moron and the morons that voted for the moron…
I bet moron is killing it in the stock manipulation
I’m seeing in the billionaire-owned media that they were “self-defense” strikes. SMH.
So they are accurately quoting the CENTCOM spokesman … how dare they!
It is irresponsible to report blatant lies without the context demonstrating that it’s a blatant lie.
Exactly, you can still report “centcom said this…” while also reporting the actual facts.
Love a good military stenographer
There is a difference between reporting and writing opinions.
Lolz.
