Iran got sanctions removed, will continue missile program, their nuclear program stays intact, they’ll get $300B and confirmed they’ll continue to toll Strait of Hormuz. US lost hundreds of billions, has record high gas prices, Americans are dead, NO gains. Art of the fraud.

When you write a book you actually write several books. There's the one you know you wrote. Then there's the one your readers bring their experiences to. This is a big part of the magic. As soon as it goes out into the world, your book multiplies & becomes many versions of itself, all equally valid.

I always find it funny when people say "this era will be judged harshly in history books". Like, if we've learned anything from recent world events, it's that nobody reads history books.

World Cup players are being denied entry to the US. Some are being detained, searched and treated like criminals. They have one thing in common…. They’re not white. The US has no business hosting the World Cup when it’s hostile to those from other parts of the world.

Ruud Gullit "The World Cup belongs to the world, not to governments, political interests, or football administrators. It belongs to the players, the referees, and the supporters. If FIFA cannot guarantee that all three are treated fairly and equally, then it has failed in its most fundamental duty.

Trump gets the "FIFA Peace Prize." Months later his DOJ drops a bribery case involving FIFA officials. FIFA "leases" office space at Trump Tower NYC that reportedly sits empty. Meanwhile, federal regulators look the other way as FIFA price gouges fans. Where's the red card when you need it?

True. That’s the main problem we face in today’s world: Extremely powerful men over the age of 70, with not much time left - destroying the planet for the rest of us. And Trump wants to build all of these landmarks for people to remember him by. It’s both tragic and so ironic.

(2/2) about this is both that it causes so many problems for Americans…but also in terms of what happens on the world stage: Russia vs Ukraine, The Trump government vs Iran, JD Vance trying to influence the election in Hungary - it’s all connected to the USA, one of the main players internationally.

(1/2) Yeah, my impression is that the American government is chosen by loyalty first and foremost - which guarantees incompetence since Trump effectively silences all would-be critics. So that his ideas are followed up on at all times. And man, those are such bad ideas… Among the biggest tragedies

(3/3) over here. However, we have a far right party (frp) where the politicians use the same tricks as those Trump does in America. Their leader, Sylvi Listhaug, has started naming media troll factories, and saying that political opponents are lying. Trump dumbs down the debate, even here.

Nothing says excellent judgment like pardoning 1,600 people and then watching about 1 in 16 promptly get arrested again for everything from DUIs to homicide. But sure, these are “great people," just with a habit of committing crimes once the consequences are removed. newrepublic.com/post/211391/...
