Wait, hold on.

Sorry: I made a mistake. It turns out that the current ambassador was, in fact, appointed by Donald Trump and that the people who thought Harris and Trump were equally bad are, in fact, the dumbest motherfuckers on the entire planet.

He didn't say all of Palestine, he said from the Nile to the Euphrates.

It was surreal to hear Tucker Carlson beat Huckabee to submission. Same with Carlson and Cruz.

Does this America First -strand of Republican drift show anywhere or is it just YouTube noise and random beef?

Fucking hell.

100% of this was predictable in November 2024.

To quote Killdozer, "you can't trust a man from Arkansas."

Khamenei was killed, apparently.

And Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and the UAE are all ready to throw down against Iran in retaliation for being hit by Iranian missiles.

This shit is fucked up.

I usually avoid Ezra Klein, but this one with Anand Giridharadas is good.

IMO, this should be circulated far and wide.

Well done, all of you “gorsh, I just can’t vote for Harris because foreign policy is my #1 issue.” You got what you wanted. Hope you’re happy.

You don’t have to remove the names. We know it’s Candace owens.

I won’t be mourning a literal fucking wizard that presided over a theocracy but this is an even stupider mistake than Iraq.

Without even considering the morality of this (I.e. none) this is pure brain worms foreign policy. It either a senile man surrounded by sycophantic foreign policy morons or just a distraction tactic to get Americans inline before mid terms. Which could spectacularly backfire.

Honestly this endless flooding the zone with shit is just exhausting, even for those of us not living there. Oil will spike on Monday risking an even more precarious global economic outlook. That’ll mean gas at the pump going up increasing inflation…

Idiots.
