Hier soir j'ai eu l'occasion de rappeler qu'un homme qui se fait élire a 2 reprises avec 90% de la presse contre soit n'est pas un cinglé, loin de là.
Merci à @DariusRochebin et à @LCI de m'avoir laissé exposer mon point de vue.

Trump on Zelensky:

Zelensky is not a good guy for us to deal with.

They're not going to settle with Zelensky. He doesn't want to settle. He says he wants to settle, but he doesn't.

I'm not a big fan of Zelensky. They've destroyed Ukraine.

Don’t forget Russia’s 2021 ASAT test that put US astronauts in harm’s way

[Fox News @FoxNews]

U.S. forces blow up an Iranian-affiliated vessel in the Gulf of Oman after officials say it was conducting surveillance and targeting American Navy warships.

The military says crew members were safely removed before the dhow was destroyed on October 6.

The operation comes as U.S. officials accuse Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of repeatedly targeting commercial mariners and American warships in regional waters over the past seven months.

Repatriation efforts for the crew are now underway.

[CBS News @CBSNews]

The White House and Pentagon have prepared plans to use a Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb to hit military sites in Iran if ordered by President Trump, sources familiar with the matter told CBS News.

Trump set precedent for using the MOAB, also known as the "mother of all bombs" when it was used in 2017 to attack an Islamic State cave complex in Afghanistan. The Pentagon says the bomb is the largest U.S. non-nuclear weapon, weighing upwards of 30,000lbs at a cost of $170,000 per unit. https://t.co/FgAQ9lXR3d

I found the unblurred image of the tank and it is reported that the picture was taken near Abadan, Iran, near the Iraqi border.

This does not mean an invasion, just interesting.

"Les Etats-Unis ont enrayé un déclin relatif qui semblait inévitable. Les Etats-Unis ont retrouvé leur poids des années 1980-1990 dans le PIB mondial, avant l'essor de la Chine, soit 26 % contre 18 % pour l'Union européenne. Et leur contribution à la croissance mondiale est désormais supérieure à celle de l'Asie hors Chine, soit 21 % en moyenne ces trois dernières années contre 5 % pour la zone euro."

US Treasury Secretary Bessent:

The noose is tightening around Iran’s economy, and not even Iran’s so-called allies can save it. The Department of the Treasury will not relent until the Iranian regime’s coffers are empty and every remaining financial lifeline sustaining its war machine has been severed.

[Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent @SecScottBessent]

Under President Trump’s leadership, Treasury will not allow the Iranian regime to continue its long history of abusing religious institutions to line the pockets of its elites and fund terrorism. By identifying and reporting this potential abuse, financial institutions can provide law enforcement with critical information to isolate the Iranian regime and its financial enablers.

C’est juste dingue d’entendre encore de la propagande russe recyclée par un candidat à la présidentielle en France.

🔴🇫🇷 DEBUNK - ÉNORME FAKE NEWS DE RAPHAËL GLUCKSMANN SUR LE SERVICE PUBLIC, SANS AUCUNE CONTRADICTION !

Glucksmann affirme que Donald Trump aurait été sauvé de la faillite de son casino Taj Mahal par des « milliardaires liés au KGB ».

Sauf que les faits racontent une tout autre histoire.

En 1991, le Taj Mahal a été restructuré avec ses créanciers obligataires, après 675 millions de dollars d'endettement. Trump a dû céder 50 % du capital du casino en échange d'un réaménagement de sa dette.

Aucune preuve documentaire connue ne démontre un prétendu sauvetage par des milliardaires liés au KGB.

Qu'un prétendant à l'Élysée présente une telle accusation comme un fait, sans être contredit sur le service public, est particulièrement grave.
