Marco Rubio 2 days ago: “Imagine if Iran funded the well-being of its people, rather than its military”
Trump today: “We can’t fund daycare or Medicaid, we need more money for our military”
Sometimes the jokes write themselves.
NO a la ruptura unilateral del derecho internacional.
NO a repetir los errores del pasado.
NO a vestir de democracia lo que en realidad es codicia y cálculo político.
NO A LA GUERRA.
$1.5 BILLION. Let me say it again - a $1.5 BILLION BET.
Bigger than any futures purchases made at the time.
5 minutes before Trump's post.
Who was it? Trump? A family member? A White House staffer?
This is corruption. Mind blowing corruption.
Let me explain what just happened 👇
5 minutes before the President announced a halt to attacks on Iran… someone placed a $1.5 BILLION bet on stocks going up and dumped $192 million in oil.
5 minutes…
These trades were 4 to 6 times larger than anything else in the entire market. Whoever did this wasn’t guessing. You don’t risk $1.5 billion on a hunch.
There was zero public indication this announcement was coming. No leaks. No press. Nothing. The only people who knew were in the room when the decision was made.
Someone in that room picked up a phone.
And within minutes they made more money than most Americans will earn in a thousand lifetimes. In a single trade. On a war that cost you $4+ a gallon gas and $16 billion in tax dollars.
American citizens funded this war. Politicians are profiting from it.
This is not the first time. Every major announcement from this administration has had massive suspicious trades right before it dropped. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. War decisions.
This is the most blatant insider trading operation in the history of American politics. It’s not even close. And it’s happening over and over in broad daylight.
You would go to federal prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. These people are front running war decisions with billion dollar bets and nobody will ever ask a single question.
Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. By tomorrow this will be buried under the next satisfying headline. Just like last time. And the time before that.
The game is rigged. And they’re not even trying to hide it anymore…
punishment for r*ping a child around the
world:
China - Death Penalty
Saudi - Public Beheading
Venezuela - Imprisonment
Iran - Death Penalty
USA - Presidency
Pete Hegseth accuses Iran of investing in missiles and weapons instead of people, during a speech in which he's asking for $200 billion for weapons, instead of people.
🇨🇺🤝🇨🇳 The first badge of the 60 thousand tons of rice offered by the People's Republic of China, sets sail towards #Cuba.
In response to adversity, the solidarity of true friends prevails and demonstrates that #CubaIsNotAlone.
Gas prices are skyrocketing nationwide.
American troops are dead and injured.
Our longtime allies are abandoning us.
…and the President of the United States has no idea what he's doing.
So let me get this straight: Iran blocking the Strait of Hormuz is ,unfair’ but blocking oil shipments to Cuba in order to collapse their whole country is what? Fair?
Watching Joe Kent resign hits hard because I know what it means to stand up and speak the truth. You spend years putting your life on the line for wars you didn’t choose, lose friends, lose pieces of yourself, and then the second you refuse to keep fighting someone else’s battles, they come for you. Joe Kent made that stand today, and I respect it because saying no to more pointless war takes more courage than most will ever understand.
I am a US citizen & Surgeon who took care of the Boston Maraton Bombing victims in 2013. I paid for 7 years to own a small apartment in downtown #Beirut for my 3 kids to enjoy summers there. Today, #Israel reduced my dream home to rubble, with american weapons, paid by my taxes.
@JhonSpa69733291@egalite80@BisouCaramel_ Entonces adoptemos el "capitalismo" chino. Empezamos por crear el partido comunista, abolir los demás partidos políticos, nacionalizar toda la tierra e intervenir todas las industrias y empresas que el partido considere prioritarias para la nación. Baboso.
After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.
