Saw this as the list of demands. My replies after... 1. Guarantee that Iran will not be attacked again - OK, but conditions 2. Permanent end to the war, not just a ceasefire - OK, but conditions 3. End to Israeli strikes in Lebanon - we don't control Israel, so conditions 4. Lifting of all US sanctions on Iran - OK, conditions 5. End to all regional fighting against Iranian allies - stop your proxies 1st 6. In return, Iran would open the Strait of Hormuz 7. Iran would impose a Hormuz fee of $2 million per ship - No. Free transit or we seize all your tankers. 8. Iran would split these fees with Oman - No 9. Iran to provide rules for safe passage through Hormuz - No. No rules. Everyone is free to pass. 10. Iran to use Hormuz fees for reconstruction instead of reparations. - No fees. You want to be part of the free world, act like it.

Or.... here's a novel concept, stop supporting Trump. Like, if all MAGA world, every single Trumpster, Trumpamaniac, all those suffering Type II TDS, just all stopped supporting raging dickhead Trump, and joined the ranks of Americans that want an honorable Prez, then maybe he goes away. But as long as there are lots of Ratners, Brabus', etc that continue the bullshit of, " but his policies" then we get what we deserve... a fucking raging asshole. @No One , that was quite the summary of Trump Bullshit. Good work. It wont convince the Trumpsters, tho. Type II TDS is like a chem trail/lizard man/5G control/Flat Earth conspiracy theory. Good luck trying to convince someone its all bullshit.

I really want this outcome. So much. And I hope he can guest star at SERE with the story. Until then, the media can fuck off with their reporting. I was caught yelling at the computer when reporters were sharing that we had an MIA. That should not be in the news at all as all it does is tell Iran to hunt harder. WHAT THE FUCK!!

What about someone who Bro rages workout selfies? Asking for Pete (or RFK).

Trump's Cabinet
CNN article on new DHS dude Mullin and Rs are happy so far. Article has the vibe of, with a regular, professional politician, you get regular, professional conduct of an organization, vs diva wannabe clowning. I'll give him 91 more days to get out of the honeymoon and judge then. Yahoo NewsMarkwayne Mullin has started making policy changes at DHS...The new DHS secretary has already made changes to how the department reviews contracts, and is reviewing all immigration detention warehouse projects across the country.

Commanders are dropping like flies this year
Usually its for being bad at your job, but according to reporters, being too good and a potential threat to Pete, if you can believe it. When we get a serious SecDef, then I'll believe more. Til then, clowns gonna clown.

No surprise. Maybe some coalition building was needed before pickling missiles. Oh wait, we got a 747. Saulgoodman. Maybe Trump tells em to get in the game or he takes out the power grid, then the neighbors can deal with a medieval times failed state. Meanwhile he's angry with other long term allies, like UK, for not wanting to participate. That should have been part of the decision process as they gamed this out, art of the deal and all. My guess is, as long as its just us and Isreal, this thing will drag on. If the whole ME piles on and starts to beat the shit out of the bully, white flags might pop up. Or not, zealots and all. Break I received one of those texts to a survey. The questions were slanted towards support of current actions for Israel's sake. Not 1 question on nuclear threats. Lastly, I pondered an interesting item. EO12333 against assassination. Should the EO have kept us from participating in bombing the Supreme Leader/staff? Not that any rule, order, or law keeps Trump in check, and I have done 0 research, but just wondering out loud.

Laguardia commuter versus fire truck
I've watched that video a few times. Looks like the emergency truck entourage is led by a non firetruck vehicle (pickup?), which stops. The firetruck is left of them and continues to cross. At first I thought maybe the entourage and the firetruck are not together, and under separate control, but I suspect they were part of the same group (as heard, "Truck 1 and company"). Maybe the firetruck didn't have tower comms on/too low. Going on the left of the entourage was probably a factor in seeing Jazz, especially with all the emergency lights at night. I say that because I hope everyone that drives across runways is well disciplined in at least looking for hazards when crossing. Sounds like a different dude initially responding to UA's emergency, so I suspect more than 1 person was working ATC, but it was also about 25 minutes until curfew, so maybe they were shifting down to 1 controller. As for Jazz, the Truck 1 and company crossing call was on tower, but so was the first stop command, which lead vehicle obeys, so if Jazz is fully aware of the trucks, continues probably because they hear the stop call and see lead stop. The fire truck darting around the entourage was likely masked to Jazz until it was too late.
