The fact is Trump not only lost his war but it's the biggest L the US has taken at least since Vietnam. Our bases are destroyed & abandoned, Iran is emboldened, China is toying w/ us. Hegseth & co want to move on to culture war slop, but they got routed & we'll be dealing w/repercussions for decades

3 vans, no bombs, 5 British nationals released on bail and yet Marco Rubio insists the RAF Fairford "incident" involves foreign actors. Indeed. This is most likely an American #falseflag to provoke the #UK into joining Trump's dumb war.

The fact that the big Ds aren't demanding impeachment and removal every day is a scathing indictment of their political instincts. Their opponent is extremely vulnerable right now and they absolutely refuse to exploit his weaknesses. It's like they're trying to lose.

A lie does not become truth because millions believe it. Wrong does not become right because the majority accepts it. And evil does not become good because enough people choose to look the other way. The masses can make evil normal. It can never make it right.

Here's how we get Medicare for All done: Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!) Include vision, dental, and hearing. Begin extending to more people, starting with children. We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

⭕️ FM Araghchi (in remarks reported by FT): 

🔹Tehran “not in a hurry” to reach an agreement based on Iran’s 7-day proposal.

🔹 “I think it would be much better if it is done before the midterm election, but it depends on the US administration to decide. We don’t care about the timing.” 

🔹“But the plan is very clear… The moment they accept this plan, from the next day, this timetable can start, and after seven days, the strait will be open.”

@SinaToossi
Pezeshkian met with American journalists and think tankers tonight. The message he is delivering is consistent with what Tehran has been signaling for some time, from the SNSC to senior IRGC figures close to the Supreme Leader.

Iran wants a deal based on the June MOU, but with US concessions implemented upfront before Tehran eases pressure on Hormuz. And if Washington refuses, it is signaling readiness for significant further escalation.

There are disputes in Tehran over tactics and how to engage Washington, but little sign of a serious factional divide over this core position. On that, the message has been remarkably consistent.
