GUEST POST BY DAVE MILLER

 



A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…

  • Iran had uranium enriched to 4%.
  • IAEA inspectors were busy combing through Iran’s nuclear facilities.
  • US and UN sanctions were wreaking havoc across IRAN.
  • Iran was unable to sell oil internationally.
  • Their economy was in tatters.
  • Iran had agreed to forgo pursuing a nuclear weapon.
  • A coalition of nations including Russia, China, France, Germany, the UK and the EU were allied to monitor enforcement.
  • The Strait of Hormuz was open.
  • President Obama was mocked mercilessly for releasing $1.8 billion dollars that was due Iran by the US because the US reneged on a weapons deal years ago.
  • The Mullahs were in charge.

That was then, this is now.

  • Iran has uranium enriched to over 60%.
  • IAEA inspectors are not allowed in Iran.
  • The crushing sanctions have been reduced or removed.
  • Iran can sell their oil on the world market.
  • Their economy and infrastructure is in tatters.
  • Iran refuses to forgo pursuing a nuclear weapon.
  • There is no world wide coalition allied to confront Iran.
  • The Strait of Hormuz is open, then closed, then open, all at the whim of Iran, creating global shipping chaos.
  • The US is brokering an international reconstruction plan of at least $300 billion in private and regional investments to repair damage from the war and help Iran's economy recover. 
  • $100 billion in frozen assets is set to be released to Iran also.
  • The Mullahs are still in charge.

Someone, anyone, please tell me again, why did we go to war with Iran?

THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS

 

The Mother Ship posted:

"Obama JUST doesn’t get it

OBAMA SLAMS AMERICA’S FOUNDERS..……."



This is wrong, of course.

Former President Obama actually "gets it." The blogger and her MAGAs are the people who don't "get it." 

The Founding Fathers wrote (Jefferson) and signed the DoI that said all men are created equal in the eyes of God and are granted inalienable rights. But those inalienable rights were not granted to women, non-property owners, and the slaves that the Founding Fathers themselves owned. They fell short of their own words! TRUTH!

This is the preamble to the Constitution:

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." 

The Founding Fathers KNEW we had to work toward "...a more perfect Union."

The woman who runs that blog has no understanding of this, so she happily attacks former President Obama, who actually taught Constitutional Law, for being Constitutionally accurate in his speech.

This is more evidence of how appallingly ignorant many MAGA cultists are.


But NOT OBAMA!   He picks that day, in our 250th year to slam our forefathers…to bring up SLAVERY!   NO context, NO understanding of White people also having been enslaved, NO knowledge of slave owners who actually were good to their slaves (I saw a Black man maybe 35 years ago explaining that…though nobody thinks having human beings as slaves, of course!), NO love of country which would prohibit his slamming our founding fathers at a big event……………….NOT OBAMA! 


She actually believes slave owners  "...were good to their slaves." Did she ever question the idea of being "good" to people you OWN? Does she even think about the evil inherent in the ownership of a human being? The question answers itself. She doesn't "think" at all. She reacts with MAGA emotions and ignorance. 

BTW, she also has no sense that the opening of the Obama presidential library was a PRIVATE affair, it had nothing to do with the 250 anniversary of the founding of this country. But, again, she is MAGA; she doesn't think; she reacts with her hatred of a president who outshines Trump in every desirable human trait: dignity, intelligence, grace, and decency.

This blogger and many other MAGAs continue to slander Mr. Obama by lying about his love of America.  IMO, it shows how indecent they are -- and mendacious.


Geeez:

“ I HOPE that some of the contractors saying how they’re owed millions of dollars for having worked on the Obama Library.”


(This is rumor. I fact-checked it, and there are disputes, but no factual evidence of being stiffed, she must be thinking of her hero, Trump, who actually took contractors to court to get out of paying them what he owed. That is fact.)  

AI:

"Donald Trump has a documented history of stiffing contractors, subcontractors, and employees. Investigations and court records have revealed that over the last several decades, his companies have been involved in thousands of lawsuits and mechanic's liens from workers alleging they were short-changed or never fully paid for their services."

Geeez smears Mr. Obama's daughter, Malia:

Not content with attacking a beloved and admired former president, she had to attack his older daughter, saying she looked like "a streetwalker."

If anyone needed more evidence of their roiling racism, GEEEZ never disappoints with her wallowing in it. A streetwalker is another word for "whore," and "hooker." She used that word to describe Malia Obama. This is a perfect example of the disgusting misogyny and bigotry of MAGA:

 GEEEZ wrote: "One poor Obama daughter was wearing a very low cut tailored suit which made her look like a streetwalker….I guess her mother doesn’t have any clout or doesn’t think young women in the public eye might not want to show half their breasts at noon?   Do it in the evening…do it in private, but …really?

Can you tell I’m not an Obama fan BY A LONG SHOT?!

(Trump was not invited)

Z

********************************


GEEEZ, always one to demonstrate her Christian charity and kindness, left out the fact that while Trump was at the G7 in Europe last week, he second-handedly insulted by proxy, Mr. Obama, and called him a "stupid son of a bitch." And last weekend a half-witted UFC fighter uttered a disgusting slur about former First Lady, Michelle Obama, in front of Trump and the world, and Trump let it pass without comment or condemnation. This disrespectful incident happened on the tax-payer grounds of the White House.

GEEEZ can't understand why the low-class, trash-talking, Obama slandering Trump, wasn't invited by the Obama's to their private and dignified opening of his presidential library?

Tell us you're drowning in MAGA misogyny, racism, and resentment while not telling us.

This is why Trump is so vicious in his attacks against the Obamas, and why, it appears, Geeez is too. They can't handle the truth!:



From AI:

Barack Obama is consistently more admired than Donald Trump, with recent national surveys reflecting a clear double-digit advantage in both overall favorability and public admiration. 
A nationwide poll conducted by CNN reveals exactly where the two figures stand: 
  • Favorability Ratings: Obama holds a 57% favorability rating among U.S. adults, compared to 34% for Trump. 
  • "Most Admired" Figure: When asked which president throughout U.S. history they admire most, 30% of Americans named Obama, placing him ahead of Trump at 19%. 
  • Independent Voters: Obama's favorability among political independents is more than double that of Trump’s. 
  • Bipartisan Appeal: While views on both men are largely shaped by party lines, Obama still garners a notably higher share of cross-party support than Trump does.

Dave Miller posted a comment that...

 

perfectly describes what the Iran War and the negotiations to end it look like:



Dave Miller:

Iran can now start selling oil and looks to get about 8 billion. 

Now, the US did release 1.7 billion under Obama to settle a legal dispute from 1979. That was flown to Iraq in cargo planes and is the frequently cited money that people like skud and Geezers always complain about. 

Iran now looks to receive a windfall because they can sell oil on the open market since the Trump Administration has agreed to end economic sanctions on them. 

The annual projected amount of oil money is about $60 billion. 

Then there are frozen assets, which estimates put in the $24-$100 billion range. 

Then there are the reconstruction funds. That amount is $300 billion. While not directly providing the money, effectively, the US is guaranteeing that amount to Iran, pledging to get our partners in the region to pony up. 

Also, there is only a 60 day moratorium on Iran charging fees for passage through the Strait of Hormuz. After that, all bets are off. 

 

So let's recap: Six months ago Iran was under sanctions by the US and the UN. It could not sell oil. It did not control the Strait. It did not have access to its frozen assets. It was not part of the world community. It did not have either, at least according to the Trump Admin, a nuclear capability or a nuclear weapon. 

Now within 30 days, it will have billions. It can start rebuilding the military facilities the US bombed, because we've stated numerous times, "We are not bombing civilian sites". Because it has demonstrated it can close the Strait, it now has total control and any challenge to that can be met with ballistic missile attacks on the oil facilities of our allies. 

In a matter of weeks, the billion dollar spigot into Iran will be turned on and for the first time in decades, they will be flush with cash. All courtesy of the Trump Admin. Somehow, the US after "winning" a war, got the short end of the stick in this "negotiation". 

 The Art of the Deal.

OMG!!!!!!

 


Donald Trump embarrassing himself and our country in front of the world!

What the hell is wrong with his people. This is pathetic.   



ARE WE WINNING YET?

 


NEW YORK TIMES EDITORIAL TODAY:

The preliminary deal ending President Trump’s four-month war with Iran is welcome but brings with it hard truths. Mr. Trump made a terrible mistake starting this war. He prosecuted it recklessly and in open defiance of the law. The United States is emerging weaker — militarily, diplomatically and economically — and will pay strategic costs for years to come.


The details of the deal are unclear, but the announced framework suggests that Mr. Trump has won few of the terms he insisted that he would. It is a humiliating comedown for him and the nation he leads.

Since the war began, he has said the United States would achieve “total and complete victory” and that Iran must agree to “unconditional surrender.” He suggested that regime change would occur. He said that Iran would be permitted “no enrichment” of uranium and that “the United States will, working with Iran, dig up and remove all of the deeply buried” near-bomb-grade nuclear material that it already holds.

None of this appears to be true. Iran’s hard-line government remains in place. The specifics of the nuclear agreement will apparently be negotiated over the next two months, but the terms seem likely to resemble those of a 2015 deal that President Barack Obama negotiated and that Mr. Trump canceled in 2018. He described the Obama agreement as the “worst deal ever” and said it put Iran on “a route to a nuclear weapon.” He criticized it for failing to force Iran to stop supporting terrorist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah and for loosening economic sanctions. Yet his destructive war seems likely to leave him with a similar deal. 



***********************

I did not check my mail this morning before I posted about Trump's Memorandum of Understanding with Iran. This is from Dave Miller, and it relates to this post, so I'm inserting here: 

"President Trump lost. 

The war he waged against Iran promises to conclude in a humbling whimper with the signing of a cease-fire agreement later this week. 

The United States is left weaker—diminished militarily, strategically, economically, and perhaps morally. 

The war, which the United States fought alongside Israel, accomplished none of the goals that Trump named at the outset. Instead, it only empowered the hard-liners in Tehran and arguably emboldened them to someday seek a nuclear weapon. Despite that, the president was so desperate for the war to end that he repeatedly backed off his threats—allowing Iran to call his bluff—and upbraided his close ally Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for responding to attacks in the region in a manner that jeopardized the negotiations." 

The above is from Jonathan Lemire in The Atlantic. 

Before you all go crazy on your keyboards, here's the salient question for us today. Is anything Lemire wrote untrue? If your answer is yes, tell us exactly what that is and why. 

To help you consider the above question, here's a list of the earliest goals POTUS Trump enumerated for the Iran War. 

Unconditional Surrender & Regime Change... Unfulfilled. 

Abolishing Nuclear Ambitions... Unfulfilled. 

Obliterating the Missile & Drone Industry... Partially fulfilled. 

Annihilating Naval and Air Power... Mostly achieved. 

Reopening the Strait of Hormuz... This is harder to ascertain. Before the war, the Strait was wide open. Once it was closed, it became an additional goal. Before the war, up to 3,000 ships a day were transiting there. No one knows when we will, if ever, reach that number again. 

 "Thank you for your attention to this matter!" --D. Miller

 Thanks, Dave!




*********************************

Trump trashes everything that came before him so that he can step in, make changes that are not necessary and not wise, and then try to con Americans into thinking he saved the day. It's part and parcel of his insecure, narcissistic, dishonest need to be praised. 

In reality, of course, Trump and his extremist, right-wing allies almost always makes things worse. There was absolutely no need to kill the accord that the U.S. and four other nations negotiated with Iran 10 years ago, which was successfully constraining that country's nuclear ambitious. But Trump killed it because, IMO, he's a racist who has sought to nullify any and all former President Obama's achievements, and because Netanyahu, a documented war criminal, has never wanted an accord with Iran.  

Trump unleashed DOGE to eliminate federal "waste and fraud," but very little of either was uncovered, and his cronies fired thousands of federal workers who had to be rehired when administration clowns realized that their expertise was needed. His tariff program was a chaotic mess. He lied about the Kennedy Center being in bad shape so that he could mess with it and then shamefully angled to steal its identity---which led to nobody wanting to perform there anymore.

Basically, many many things Trump has touched in his life have ended up badly. His casinos went belly-up, his merchandising of wine and other goods failed, and he ran a sham university to teach people his business skills. To top it off he is ruining our government and our standing in the world.

TRUMP AT THE G7

 

A perfect metaphor for where we stand in the world because of him and his policies:





Two days ago...

 

one of the participants in Trump's self-aggrandizing MMA birthday party on the grounds of the White House uttered a racial slur against former First Lady, Michelle Obama.

The sitting POTUS who gave himself that party to celebrate turning 80 never distanced himself from what his guest uttered, never condemned that slander, never rebuked the racist who said it.

When people complain that "not everything is racist," they are refusing to see the reality in front of their noses.

Trump is a racist, and those who support him, accept and cater to that racism are, IMO, just as indecent as he is.




According to Yahoo! News, this is what the camera caught just after Hokit vomited his smear against former First Lady, Michelle Obama.

See that smirk? This is how the Convicted Felon-in-Chief will be remembered: 

When America needed a leader with moral strength, dignity, and decency, we Americans ended up with a failed human being, Donald J. Trump.

HOW LOW CAN THE US GO? TRUMP AND MAGA, "HOLD MY BEER!"




Trump’s White House UFC fights marred by ugly Michelle Obama smear 

Trump brings UFC to White House for 80th birthday 

Josh Hokit targets former First Lady after TKO win

 



"The ignorant creature in the above image personifies the gulf between 'us' and 'them' in 2026. The vulgarity. The indignity. The bigotry. The lies. The hate. Yet, he was rewarded from the assembled masses with roars of approval. They cheered him on as if to say, 'Someone finally had the guts to say it on national television.'

We're no longer one people divided by ideological differences. We've become two nations uncomfortably living within common borders. Other than the air that I breathe, I have nothing in common with this mindless punk, or any of the other creatures who laughed along with him. We're on more giant leap further along the path to irreconcilability." --Bruce Lindner





This is what The People's House looked like to the world. 

All of it brought to you by the trashiest, most indecent human being to ever defile the White House.

Hokit smeared a former First Lady. MAGA and Trump cheered the insult to her, and our country was degraded once again by the convicted felon and adjudicated SA/rapist in the White House.




"It was all disgusting, demeaning, and as far from being patriotic and celebratory of our country and its values as possible. It was like watching Trump's J6 insurrectionists smearing feces on the Capitol again." --C.L. Waryas, Facebook commenter

Happy Birthday to Trump from Denmark.

 


To the sun-baked mafioso in the Oval Office…

Happy 80th birthday, Donald. 


You’ve proven to the entire world that you don’t need to have read a single book, let alone possess elementary decorum, to reach the very top. 


You’ve turned narcissism into an Olympic sport, and the truth into a rubber band measured by the yard.


Today you turn 80, and let’s be honest: you’re celebrating it exactly like the nihilistic Sun King you are. 


While other world leaders your age would have long since retired to write boring, self-righteous memoirs or collect stamps, you choose to transform the White House South Lawn with a massive steel structure and a no-holds-barred cage fight.


It is nothing short of brilliant in its pure vulgarity. Caligula would have wept with envy seeing human beings beat each other half to death in the Rose Garden to honor an 80-year-old Republican birthday boy.


You’re not a politician, Donald. You are a force of nature driven by pure, unadulterated transactional logic. 


You’ve transformed the most powerful office in the Western world into a clan seat, where statesmanship is replaced by quid pro quo, and where you view the Constitution as an annoying lease that just needs to be renegotiated.


You’ve made the truth completely irrelevant; if reality doesn’t suit you, you simply dictate a new one in ALL CAPS on Truth Social.


You’ve turned American democracy into an exclusive, all-you-can-eat buffet for tech oligarchs and oil sheikhs.


You don’t possess a shred of refinement, and that is precisely why you are bulletproof. 


You are the ultimate culmination of the American Dream: the man who can buy his way out of anything, lie his way out of any lawsuit, and convert total chaos into his personal currency.


So now you sit there like a true mob boss in the autumn of your life. Today, you are fighting the only opponent your lawyers cannot sue and whom you cannot intimidate: the relentless march of time…


- But even Chronos, the Greek god of time, will have his work cut out for him to bring you down, because your ego is thicker than bulletproof glass, and you are nowhere near finished bestowing large, vulgar monuments of yourself upon posterity.


Here in Denmark, we raise our long-stemmed crystal goblets today to toast you - not in admiration, but in deep, chilling fascination that the boundless narcissism of a single human being can hold the entire planet hostage.


May the cage on the South Lawn provide the blood you need to stay young.


Cheers and Happy Birthday 🥂

JUST SO YOU KNOW

 


This is who is financially benefitting from Trump's tacky UFC wrestling games on the grounds of the White House this weekend:




Organizations financially benefiting from the White House UFC spectacle span corporate sponsors, digital media platforms, and political action committees:



AI Overview: 

TKO Group Holdings (UFC): The parent company is investing an estimated $60 million to produce the event as a strategic marketing maneuver, leveraging the historic backdrop to drive global audience numbers and subscriptions. --The Hill  

Paramount Skydance: The media company owns Paramount+, which holds exclusive streaming rights to UFC events and stands to gain millions of new subscribers through widespread earned media from the White House broadcast. --CT Mirror

Corporate Sponsors: Major brands actively promoting their products and services at the event include Dodge (heavily advertising Ram trucks) and Crypto.com (which is offering a $1 million digital currency bonus pool for top fighters). --CT Mirror 

Fanatics: The sports apparel company partnered with the White House to produce and sell exclusive "USA 250" merchandise and uniform patches. --CT Mirror 

The Trump Organization: The Trump family is directly marketing a series of "Freedom 250" themed silver and gold medallions, including commemorative coins priced as high as $11,999.99. --CNN 

Make America Great Again, Inc. (MAGA Inc.): The pro-Trump Super PAC is capitalizing on the weekend's festivities by hosting a $1 million-per-person fundraising event at the nearby Trump National Golf Club in Virginia. --NBC News



*********************************

Reminder: This PRIVATE FOR PROFIT event is being held on PUBLIC grounds. Trump will pocket the millions in sponsorship money and every day Americans won't even be able to watch it without subscribing to a monthly Paramount Cable subscription. 



 Look at all the organizations making huge profits (including the Trump family) off this spectacle on the grounds of the People's House -- OUR House that we, the people, support with our taxes. 

 Are any of you going to get some of that filthy lucre? No, of course not. 

 But! 

At least Trump didn't misstate what he was doing on our taxpayer-paid federal grounds! And he'll probably not wear a tan suit that day either, so it won't be written up by the media, so it's all good. 

I mean, who didn't dream of some day having a bunch of half naked, sweaty men wrassling on the White House lawn as an 80th birthday gala for a sitting POTUS or a commemoration for the 250th founding of this, our beloved country?






It was all Trump's idea; and as the kids say today, "That tracks."
























And to close out the week...

 

we heard the POTUS say, "I love inflation."

Trump: Making inflation American again!

WE INTERRUPT THIS WEEK'S POSTING TO REMEMBER WHAT WE ONCE HAD

 


No one, and I do mean not one human being, could imagine Trump even knowing who Reinhold Niebuhr was, let alone understand what his philosophy was about.

We once admired intelligence, leadership, rationality, honesty, and decency in our presidents. Not all of them had those qualities in equal amounts, but most of them had at least one or two.

In my opinion, and millions and millions of people in America and around the world, Trump hasn't one of them.

If I'm wrong in my opinion, please explain.





The person who interviewed Mr. Obama when he explained why he loved Reinhold Niebuhr was David Brooks, a columnist for The New York Times. 

In a 2007 interview, Brooks asked Obama an off‑the‑cuff question: “Had you ever read Reinhold Niebuhr?” Obama responded, “I love him. He’s one of my favorite philosophers,” and then went on to discuss Niebuhr’s ideas with enthusiasm and insight.

THIS HAPPENED

 

Can anyone give me one legitimate reason for the Trump administration to bar this man from coming into the US for the purpose of refereeing World Cup soccer games?





"The World Cup is supposed to bring the global community together in a celebration of sport and diversity. The Trump regime has absolutely ruined it for millions of fans around the world by injecting their racist, fascist ideology into an event that celebrates the exact opposite." --Truth and Accountability Project






Details of Artan's nightmare immigration journey revealed 

"Per the New York Times, Artan endured an 11-hour immigration interview. He was then moved to a separate holding cell and detained for several more hours before being placed on a return flight to Istanbul in Turkey. 

Speaking to the same publication, Artan insisted he 'had the right papers and everything' required for entry into the US."

Infantile "Whiner-in-Chief" Strikes Again!

 


By now you've either seen or read about Trump's horrific Meet The Press appearance on Sunday.

To say it was a sickening example of Trump at his infantile and misogynistic worst is to repeat oneself by stating the truth about Trump's behavior as POTUS, ex-POTUS, and POTUS redoux.

Trump called Ms. Welker "crooked," and "stupid," and a member of the "fake dirty press." I'm surprised he didn't yell, "Quiet Piggy!" as he did to another female interviewer on Air Force One not too long ago. 

Last week he yelled at CNN's Kaitlin Collins saying that she's, "...a young, beautiful woman who never smiles" and claimed he saw "hatred in her eyes." He interrupted her questions regarding survivors of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal and Iran policy to tell her: "You know why you're not smiling? Because you know you're not telling the truth."

I could go on and on about this American disgrace, but it's too depressing to recall all the times he's lashed out in rage at women and men who ask him normal questions. He's used to his sycophants telling him what a genius he is, so when a professional doing her job asks a non-sycophantic question, he loses what's left of his feeble mind, because he doesn't know how to react to push-back from people doing their jobs instead of kissing up to his fragile ego.

"Trump walked out of the interview, unwilling to take any more heat. I applaud Ms. Welker for attempting the impossible: getting honest answers from a president who is accustomed to being coddled by individuals who will never challenge him or tell him anything he does not want to hear. 

The leader of the free world is a coward." --Oren Spiegler, NYTimes Letters 


And this is the face he deserves:

WHO WILL GO DOWN WITH THE USS TRUMP?



Bruce Lindner:


At present, there are 217 Republicans in the House of Representatives.


There are 53 Republicans in the United States Senate.


Six of the Supreme Court justices were appointed by Republican administrations, including three by Trump himself. Their Republican DNA is self-evident by their actions from the bench.


There are 23 Cabinet members, including the vice president, all Republicans.


His family; a wife, two daughters, three sons, two sons-in-law, two daughters-in-law, all apparently Republicans.


And yet, after a lengthy string of bizarre behavior, particularly his latest unhinged, threatening diatribes that he recently posted on Truth Social , not a SINGLE one of them has mustered the courage to proffer; “Hey, maybe he shouldn’t have the launch codes after all.”

[skip]

But it’s also sad. Sad for him, as his sanity drains away like so much antifreeze from a punctured radiator, and sad for the 340 million Americans + 7.6 billion other citizens of this planet whose lives are increasingly endangered.


Not JUST by the madman at the helm.


But even more so by a political party of absolute COWARDS. Who, for the most selfish of reasons, won’t lift a finger to rectify the situation.

[skip]

We live in extraordinary times. A madman is in the White House. And everyone knows it. Yet an entire political party is so cowed by him, so self-serving, so lily-livered, that not ONE of them will do what’s right for the nation they profess to love.


The pressure is increasingly on the Republicans. Who will break rank? And who will go down with the USS Trump?
