Meanwhile trump was awaiting every update on the peace talks from Vance by being in the situation room at The White House. It was of the utmost of importance to him. No, wait, that's not what he was doing at all. He was at the UFC fight............. Trump slammed as he smiles at UFC 327 alongside Marco Rubio and Ivanka as Iran peace talks fail While President Trump walked into the arena to cheers and boos while Kid Rock was playing, Vice President Vance announced the US and Iran failed to come to an agreement https://www.the-independent.com/new...p-ufc-iran-war-peace-talks-b2956056.htmlDr. Jesus seemed preoccupied at the time.....

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8dll93j7d5oThis should probably go in political jokes. Orban ... Putin's favourite EU leader. Also Trump's fav EU leader. Makes you wonder huh. JD Vance goes to Stump for Orban and during his rahh rahh tour trying to help Orban get re-elected.... He chastises European leaders for trying to influence the Hungarian election. Can't make it up. Orban lost in a landslide because unlike Trump Hungarians aren't down with their leader being best buds with Putin.

Iran War II

The other thread got locked - while we are still ongoing with the 'War' .... there's stuff going on every day it seems, whether it's negotiations, threats, blockades or watching Chinese ships sail thru the blockade. Figure a new thread is warranted.
Question at this point - same as the original question/comment: What is the objective for the USA? Does anyone actually know? Does anyone think Trump knows? Or are we at a point Trump is trying to end this with no more loss of face and embarrassment, but he doesn't know how?

I have never seen a doctor dressed like that?
trump will lie when everybody knows he is lying.
It makes no difference to him. Lies are easy because he knows no matter how much he lies some will believe him.

Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.
According to the Bible, It's the only unforgivable sin! And of course, Trump is the only president of the US that ever committed it.
Between that and his words against the Pope, and his Easter Sunday Rant, Trump has made it clear, he has no understanding of the Bible or for Religion as a whole...
Yet, little minds follow him around like puppies. They Praise him, they worship him....
"Thou shall put no other gods before me" You'd have thought that means something to someone like Paula White... Guess Not!

Exactly.
If it's that big of a problem, then people will stop watching. Plain and simple. NFL isn't food/shelter... it's entertainment. Let people vote with their wallet.

It made sense then.....makes even more sense now.
LMAO - McCarthy is definitely a stand up guy who would never shill for anyone. Let's actually wait and see. . . like I said - if he's actually guilty of something (bearing in mind how corrupt this DOJ has been in going after political adversaries) then prosecute him to the fullest. I think this would be a more effective 'gotcha' if at least half of Congress didn't have similar skeletons in their closet. Let's face it, the only difference between Swalwell and a significant portion of politicians on both sides of the aisle is that his misdeeds are getting airtime.

Here's the thing about that. I simply do not understand the problem. I mean I get the fact people do not like NFL games going to streaming. To get these games you have to pay an extra fee. But why is it they feel a need to investigate the NFL over it?
It's basic capitalism 101. The NFL is conducting business the same way they always have in this regard. The rights to broadcast these games is put up for bid. The highest bid wins. That's how capitalism works in its most basic of forms.
Monday Night Football is a package that is bid on. The same goes for Sunday Night Football, Thursday Night football, the holiday games, playoff packages and the Super Bowl. Which network or service bids on covering either the NFC or AFC during the regular season as well.
Streaming services have become popular enough that they now have the funds to bid and compete for the broadcasting rights to those games.
I think people need to consider that when it comes to the home teams things have actually improved. Years ago if the home team didn't sell out the game it wasn't wasn't televised. Now it's televised regardless.
As I said, I understand the frustration on the part of the fans. I do however find it odd those who promote capitalism now seem to side with those trying to interfere with it.
IMO with all of the friction over everything from BLM to the Bad Bunny halftime show and the tantrum thrown over it this is nothing but an extension of that. Using the power of the government to harass a perceived enemy.

The Pope?
trump attacks the Pope?
Said he is "not a fan and that the Pope is weak on crime? " Would not have got elected if not for him.
The stable genius insults the Pope. Like he is in a political campaign against him.
Unbelievable. Truly unbelievable.
PS: the AI picture of trump as Jesus says it all.
thank you for saving the world donny.

As a Braves fan it is always hard for me when they play the Guardians.
I keep it as my American and National league teams.
Chris Sale is no day at the beach. Very uncomfortable at bats for left handed hitters.
Chase was very impressive for a young hitter. He got good wood on the ball against a great lefty.
He has a bright future.

Re: Iranian War

I take it you haven't heard the latest? Those ships we heard about entering the region yesterday? They were brought in because trump is going to "blockade the Strait of Hormuz"......................... Live updates: Trump says he’ll direct the US Navy to blockade the Strait of Hormuz U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday said the U.S. Navy would “immediately” begin a blockade to stop ships from entering or leaving the Strait of Hormuz, after U.S.-Iran peace talks in Pakistan ended without an agreement. Iran has demanded the right to collect tolls from vessels traveling through the strait, but Trump said no one who paid them would “have safe passage on the high seas.” https://apnews.com/live/iran-war-israel-trump-04-12-2026So trump claimed he wanted Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz and now he says he is going to close it? You know, the exact same thing Iran is already doing which you claim they don't have the authority to do? So is your claim now that Iran has no authority in international waters but trump does? Your claim was "As long as Iran continues to insist that they lay claim to international waters". I stated the circumstances were completely different but trying to state that changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to that of your own country isn't "laying claim to it" will be a very hard box to wiggle your way out of. After consideration maybe I should have worded this differently concerning the Gulf of Mexico. Trump feels he has the authority to control renaming anything he wants in international waters. I heard. The part you missed is the blockade is to stop ships leaving that have met Irans requirements...like being just ships that paid tolls or are friendly to the regime. We are simply meeting their blockade on one end of the strait with one of ours on the other. They aren't going to be in control of which ships enter and exit the strait. We stop when they stop.

Cool. Sounds like you were a bit overdue in getting a solid portion of your funds in to safer positions, but it has been a bull market for a while, so why not, right? We have to do what we feel is right. Smart decisions and trying to time markets are two different things.
As you said, when time isn't on your side, you have to try to hold your position because sooner or later you are going to dip in to those funds to maintain a certain standard of living and do some of the things you and yours have dreamed and talked about for the last 40 or so years.

Bill Clinton and the Pope both died on the same day. Due to a minor clerical error, the Pope went to Hell, while Clinton went to Heaven. When the Pope arrived in Hell, everyone realized the mistake. Due to an issue with the union, they couldn't swap the two until the next day, and the Pope had to spend the night in Hell, while Clinton spent the night in Heaven. The next day the paperwork got worked out. On his way up to Heaven, the Pope ran into Clinton. Clinton asked the Pope, "How was your night in Hell?" "Very educational," responded the Pope. "I've learned a lot from the experience, but now I'm glad I'm going to Heaven. I've been waiting all my life to meet the Virgin Mary." "Ooh, sorry," said Clinton, "you should have been there yesterday."

A worldwide survey was conducted by the UN. The only question asked was: "Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?" The survey was a huge failure. In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant. In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant. In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant. In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant. In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant. In South America they didn't know what "please" meant. And in the USA they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.

Let's not forget that Swalwell is facing allegations from staffers and he deserves the right to face the process of investigation and the right to plead his case and defend himself in a court of law..if he broke any laws.
I'm a bit concerned about the timing of the alleged conduct that is said to have occurred years ago. Swalwell deserves a trial and to be judged by a jury or judge.
If the allegations are judged to be true, Swalwell should be subjected to punishment according to the law. But if he is judged not guilty, so be it.
I have to hear the facts of the case before I judge anyone guilty...jmho
