White House tells Pompeo to 'shut his stupid mouth' on Iran

Truth spoken to toxic power can be a terrible thing if you're the recipient of that truth. If there's one thing Little Donny does not like, it is people who speak frankly about his horrific mistakes and his incredibly dumb daily pronouncements.

instead of just posting links you need to read the article rather than just look at the headlines from the article

In the 248-year intra-Western contest between the US and Europe, there has been only one winner. America is also sick, as witnessed by its own social decay, the rise of the woke ideology and the preposterous rematch of the geriatrics between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. Yet unlike in Paris, Berlin, Rome or Brussels, enough remains of its capitalist spirit, its dynamism, its entrepreneurialism, its love of science, meritocracy and technology, to see it through its current troubles.

Enjoy the decline. Europe is irrelevant.

Were are you from?you seem to like to tar each and every American with the malaise of trump and quite frankly it’s insulting and getting boring…..personally I agree that he will never leave office on his own accord hopefully he can be run off without violence…..that remains to be seen hopefully the lousy diet will defeat the miracle of modern medicine soon and the planet will be rid of him.

He has something of a point. Trump is the creation of the USA. You put back in power a President so flawed, his narcissm, greed, venal stupidity, inability to ask for or take advice, total rejection of any form of collegiate or cabinet government and contempt for your constitution and the law were known, already demonstrated and constantly announced. The resulting cascade of frankly stupid decisions and policies, economic, fiscal, in domestic government and international matters have diminished your nation with astonishing rapidly. They have caused huge social and economic damage to the US in general and destabilise the world. As a nation you are demonstrating open racism both within and outside your borders, attempted to destroy long established trade systems, tarrifs, military threats, Venezuela, Cuba, Greenland, Canada, Iran, your allies worldwide, the list goes on and on.

The USA behaves like a malevolent,heavily armed, bullying toddler, caring not what it does, the damage it causes as long as it get what it wants now!

Now this has been the result of choosing a leader (who is bizarre and grotesque beyond comprehension to the rest of the world) and allowing him to build and create a cult, a government built on greed and tantrums.

You put him there, in the knowledge, now looking even more certain, that he will not leave despite your Constitution. You seem frankly, incapable of enforcing your constitution; one suspects that you will have to endure quite severall more years of his increasingly chaotic and unpredictable "leadership" as he is propped up by the oligarchs to which, through him, you have handed power

Of course the solution is in your hands, although there seems little chance that you will do anything about it. Winston Churchill is often quoted as saying that "America will always do the right thing, after it has tried everything else". That is very much being tested at the moment, tested to destruction and it doesn't look good.

That is very much the reality of the United States in 2026.

To this day the only explanation about this created following is

"I will never understand"

People will be asking what was it all for no Regime change happened now Iran wants Reparations paid to them

Bottom line Trump is looking for a easy way out of this farce

Regime change hasn't happened yet because the regime told people (who are on the whole unarmed) that if they took the the streets they would be killed. Obviously recent history shows this is no idle threat.

AI Overview

In May 2026, the Iranian government has significantly escalated its use of the death penalty to suppress public dissent following widespread protests that began in late 2025. Authorities have explicitly warned that anyone taking to the streets "at the will of the enemy" will be treated as an "enemy of God" (Moharebeh), a charge that carries the death penalty.

This obviously does not mention summary executions carried out on the streets by the Basij.

Back before the MAGA uprising it was well-known in the world of Kansas politics that MP here had his eye on the WH. Perhaps he has aspirations for 2028.

Maybe he decided to make some sort of a statement while you-know-who was in the hospital. Again.

Waiting to hear: "I took another cognitive test, and I did even better this time! The doctors have never seen anything like it!" blah blah . . .

Cannot believe you are that simple !! "Why are they recruiting civilian fighters including women and children is the question. " To fight against a Bully !! that is why !!

They shoot their own citizens in the head by the thousands or tens of thousands for protesting and you say "bully". As for women and children maybe, just maybe it's because their numbers of actual fighters has been somewhat diminished.

Again with the assuption !! figures are difficult to verify due to government-imposed communication blackouts.!! in Iran

Now you are saying the USA is not a bully !!

Iranian civilians are receiving weapons training and instruction on how to use assault rifles.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has set up public military training booths and kiosks across Tehran. Ordinary citizens—including women, children, and the elderly—are being instructed on how to handle, assemble, and disassemble AK-47 assault rifles

Have you never heard of HOME GUARD !! is a title given to military organizations at various times, with the implication of an emergency or reserve force raised for local defense.

Your assumption at times are outstanding

go back to sleep!!
