I’m just stunned that after months of watching trump claim “the end of the war is near”… simply to manipulate the market… reporters are still falling for this scam. Let me clear things up… There is no deal. There will be no deal. Why would trump make a deal when he’s making money? He won’t.

I remember saying, like four months ago, that this was going to be an unusually long deployment and people were going to start going crazy. Naturally, social media experts told me I didn’t know what I was talking about (despite being a licensed Master) and insisted the Navy “does this all the time.”

He owes us $100 million plus interest and penalties.
Screenshot of a ProPublica post on X (formerly Twitter) stating that the IRS has agreed not to audit Trump's taxes, noting that a 2024 audit found Trump effectively claimed the same large write-off twice on a failed Chicago tower project - a finding that could have cost him more than $100 million. The post includes a thumbnail image linking to a ProPublica article.

RESULT: GOP’s effort to install an ally as Dem’s Senate nominee in Nebraska fails. An anti-abortion pastor has lost big to Cindy Burbank, who has signaled she’s likely to drop out to help independent Dan Osborn defeat the GOP Senator. GOP tried to kick Burbank off ballot but courts stepped in.

Trump assures the world that Iran isn't shooting at ships, except for the ships they're shooting at
Iran has taken some shots at unrelated Nations with respect to the Ship Movement, PROJECT FREEDOM, including a South Korean Cargo Ship. Perhaps it’s time for South Korea to come and join the mission! We’ve shot down seven small Boats or, as they like to call them, “fast” Boats. It’s all they have left. Other than the South Korean Ship, there has been, at this moment, no damage going through the Strait. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan Caine, will have a News Conference tomorrow morning. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J.
