A dozen memes (in a thread) of the foreign policy moment: capitulation, surrender, losing the war.

#USpol #Iran #kegseth

A post by Molly Ploofkins titled "Understanding Trump's Surrender to Iran: A Quick Guide." The tweet contains a table comparing the Obama (JCPOA, 2015) and Trump (2026) agreements with Iran. The table has three columns: the first column lists categories such as Unfrozen Iranian assets, Iran's uranium stockpile, Iran's enrichment program, Iran sanctions, Hormuz Strait, American lives lost to get to deal, American injuries to get to deal, Direct costs to get to deal, Additional geopolitical risk,…

I also think it was obvious, basically everyone with sense said that Iran could win the war simply by outlasting US resolve, and they did precisely that. Trump basically thought the Iranians would fold like the Venezuelans did after Maduro, he was wrong.

This agreement is far worse than I expected.
To reopen the strait— a strait that was open before the war- we and our partners are transferring billions to the autocrats. We get nothing else— no elimination of enriched uranium, missiles, or terrorist support. And to add one final gift, we agree to not help the Iranian people pursue their democratic aspirations. Just incredible.

Families have lost loved ones. Billions of dollars have been spent. For what? This "deal" he signed leaves Iran stronger and in control of the Strait, but does little to advance US interests. The "master deal maker" just made one of the worst deals in US history. This is a total capitulation! What's next, the Russians get Alaska?

Another long day at the polls yesterday. Arrived 5:50 am, left at 9:10 pm (polls open 7 to 7). 704 ballots cast at my precinct. Steady all day. I don’t think anyone waited more than 5 minutes to check in.
Unfortunately, GA is one of the very few states that requires runoffs in races where nobody got 50.0001% or more of votes in a given race, so we’ll do this all again in 4 weeks.
Still an important job and I’m happy to do my part.

Seems to me, the only sort of "ballroom" that could provide protection of any sort would be a creatively named condom brand. 😛

He draws the curse of the Founders upon him and all those who support him.

screenshot of a post by the White House:
King Charles III and potus stand in suits side by side laughing outside the White House, with a Union Jack flag held by a flag bearer and a podium with the presidential seal visible in the background. The text "TWO KINGS" and a crown emoji is the caption. "King" in red is written over King Charles, "Royalist Scum" in red is written over potus.

The President heard the shots fired at the White House Correspondent's Dinner over the weekend very well because he has never suffered an ear injury.

Added 5 nicknames for potus to my @…, a bot that posts a nickname for him once every hour.
Great way to avoid using his name, which he'll love!

If only #Iran hadn’t built the Zagros Mountains millions of years ago (990 miles [1,600 km] long and 150 miles [240 km] wide, and at points more than 14,000 feet [4,000 meters] tall) making assault from west difficult, as Iraq found in early 1980s and Rome found starting ~2,000 years ago.

If I say, “the wholly morally irredeemable adviser to the president,” you can probably guess who I mean.
That’s messed up.
Odd that more that one could technically fit the bill.

The Dow Jones is over 50,000, she’ll be fine.
And I hope she gets exactly the care, sympathy and support she deserves.

There is no excuse for the US the ever have any military personnel die in combat again.
Just issue them each a ballroom and they’ll be fine.

The Archduke Ferdinand has a game room and shooting gallery in his home at Konopiště Castle, but seemed not to have a ballroom.
And that, not an attempt to free Bosnia and Herzegovina of Austro-Hungarian rule and establish a common "Yugoslav" state, is why he was shot.
