You people are complete totalitarians. It is like the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact in full view.
The shift from “let us live our lives” to “you will wear the trans pride hat or it means you don’t believe gay people are full human beings” has been pretty staggering.
@Scott_Wiener No sir. Forcing someone to celebrate something they don't believe in, is totalitarianism. No one has to put up Christmas decorations if they don't believe in Christmas. Demanding people celebrate (x) is absolutely not what this country is about, it is the exact opposite.
@Alexander88996@IAPolls2022@guypbenson Not sure who 'you people' are.... DNC's own 'autopsy' report of the 2024 election (granted only partially released... strange 🤔)? Polls showing what is important to voters? Take your pick.
🇮🇷🇴🇲Iran's allowed to pump and sell again, with a catch
Under the deal to wind down the war, the U.S. is letting Iran start selling oil and fuel the moment the agreement is signed this week, an early sweetener to keep Tehran at the table.
The waiver covers more than crude, it clears the banking, shipping and insurance that actually make a sale happen, so Iran can cash in fast instead of watching barrels rot in port.
It's already in motion, a group that tracks Iran says a loaded supertanker slipped out of Chabahar, crossed the U.S. blockade and was steaming through the Gulf of Oman today with its tracker switched on, the first to pull that off since the blockade went up in April.
Here's the catch though, a senior U.S. official made clear the upfront relief is a taste and not a payout, the real money stays frozen until Tehran delivers on the Strait of Hormuz and its nuclear program.
Iran gets to sell the oil, Washington still decides when the serious cash shows up.

@yesnicksearcy Is this due to struggles/worried about keeping the base? They certainly aren't going to change people's view of what happened. https://t.co/b1JDG0Kbx5
Has anyone yet written the complete history of how Pride went from a vibrant counterculture to a civil rights movement to a sort of unofficial corporate-sponsored state religion whose observance is subsidized by taxpayer dollars and sometimes compelled by law
Britain now arrests more people for social media posts than China, Russia, and Turkey combined nearly matching the rest of the top 10 countries combined
Britain really leads the world on these thought crimes
Insane how the UK, which used to be a free country, turned out to be so totalitarian
The wars in Ukraine — and now, Iran — show that the strong can’t quite do what they want, and the weak don’t always suffer as they must. My analysis of how the new age of empires may have been oversold. https://t.co/HjeZTS0g4X
