Trump is bellowing (again) about a supposedly imminent “deal” with the Iranians that will entail them opening up the Strait and agreeing to yessa massa whatever Boss Man Trump (that is, Netanyahu) requires of them with regard to any nuclear materials they may possess. What are the chances of the Iranians agreeing to such a “deal”?
They are probably on par with the chances of us getting those $5,000 rebates we were promised as a result of Elon Musk’s sussing out all that “waste” that was supposed to be refunded to us, the drones who paid for it. It all seemed much too good to be true and – of course – it was. Musk got access to federal data about us, which is what DOGE was actually all about.
This “deal” is almost certainly of a piece. For the Iranians to agree to Trump’s terms would be to concede defeat in a war they have been winning so far. Why would they do that? What is the upside, for the Iranians? If they were to agree, it would mean handing over the leverage they won – as regards the Strait – and also accepting that they will be at the mercy of Netanyahu henceforth, which would be something like a 12-year-old trusting Epstein to not rape her. Either the Iranians are almost inconceivably stupid or Trump is (once again) lying bigly.
Trump’s lying is so brazen it has a weird patina of believability. This is psychology. The normal brain, when presented with a truly outrageous lie of the sort Trump emits with the regularity of a flatulent sea lion – thinks it cannot be that. It must be the truth! The business in Butler two summers ago is a very excellent example of this. People saw what appeared to be an attempt on Trump’s life and most believed what they saw – because the alternative was something beyond the normal ken.
And yet, in retrospect . . .
Trump’s ear gets nicked when he turns his head at exactly the right moment to avoid a lethal head shot; it was a miracle of Biblical proportions. Just the thing to appeal to Bible-believing supporters who saw a miracle – or so they thought they saw. The supersonic rifle round that passed that close to his ear drum didn’t rupture it. Fire a powerful rifle without ear protection and see what it does to your hearing. Then the Iowa Jima pose, allowed by the Secret Service that is trained to do exactly the opposite of what we all saw them do that day. It had to have been incompetence. The normal brain cannot conceive of the alternative. At least not in the moment. It is how Ted Bundy acquired a following of pretty young women. Never mind having raped and murdered scores of pretty young women. That glib smile and friendly manner. No, it couldn’t have been him!
And yet, it was.
What do the Iranians think? Probably, they understand by now that they are dealing with a kind of parody of Bundy, less handsome and suave. They know they can trust Trump as much as Bundy could be trusted. They’d be crashing imbeciles to believe he is doing anything other than what he always does. So, they are probably playing along. Trump’s “deal” is a 60 day period of sort-of truce during which “negotiations” are supposed to be undertaken. They know these “negotiations” are nothing more than Trump hoping he can out-wait the Iranians, who are also suffering as a result of this stupid, evil war. Trump’s hope being they’ll cave before he has to resume the stupid, evil war. Possibly going all-out, with ground troops and even nukes.
Meanwhile, nothing is going to get better, in terms of the gas price situation – especially given Trump is exporting yuge quantities of domestically produced oil, in order to prop up the word economy at the expense of the American economy. It is fascinating that so few Americans – especially those still wearing the red yarmulke – do not wonder why it is that Americans are paying $4.50 (national average) for gas when there is so much oil right here in America. Trump touts the money being made – by ExxonMobil, et al – just the same as he touts the stock market – and the red yarmulke-wearers cheer, even as they bitch about it costing $100 to fill up their truck.
It’s enough to make a guy want to reach for the bottle.

RE: “The DOGE Checks Are Coming, Too . . .”
It’s called, ‘Mothering’. Every bit of it all.
Yeesh, I looked online and None of the definitions fit the term.
Mothering: promising a thing, never intending to provide the thing, yet dangling that thing out as if it were available. Or, maybe hopeful to provide the thing? Possibly?
I.e. a construction company offers a worker a wage for doing hard work.
At the end of the week after hard work – payday – the construction company says it can’t pay, for whatever b.s. reason. Then says, “Keep working for us, we promise to pay you next week”.
Next week comes, and they say the same thing.
The construction company never pays the worker. EVER.
THAT, is ‘Mothering’.

🚨 Mysterious Late-Night Scene in Brooklyn Under NYPD Investigation
A strange incident unfolded in Brooklyn, New York, where video appears to show around six individuals emerging from a manhole at approximately 2:00 a.m. Reports suggest they may have been underground for nearly two hours, while the cover remained closed and someone was seen standing watch nearby.
The situation has prompted a full investigation by the NYPD, with the surrounding area cordoned off as authorities work to determine what occurred and why the group was in the underground space.

False Flag terror redux inbound
looks like another 9-11 set-up
Morning, Jack –
Let’s just say I will not be surprised. Trump/”Bibi” are backed into a corner. It is humiliating to them personally as well as an impediment to their agenda. The hope – their hope – is that Iran will somehow fold over the next several weeks. But if not? What then? Well, a dirty bomb going off in NYC or some other city that could be blamed on the Iranians would rally the imbeciles. Wave the flag and play that Lee Greenwood song at top volume. Support the Troops! Your are with us or against us! Etc.
Play, ‘The People’, like a pawn.
“Naturally, the common people don’t want war … but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country.” – Hermann Goring
Ludicrous lies from our failing, trillion-dollar, overextended military:
‘An Iranian Fateh-110 short-range ballistic missile targeted Kuwait’s Ali Al Salem Air Base, a key operational hub for the U.S. Air Force. BBG says missile intercepted, but falling debris struck part of the base, injuring five Americans.’ — quoted at ZeroHedge
Intercepted, but debris fell on the base? Then obviously, the interception occurred mere meters from the platform where the interceptor was fired … if you believe the American bullshit.
I contend that it was a direct hit, with no interception. Yankees go home!

Is Trump ruling the world or even in charge of the United States? It may appear Trump is the boss, certainly con artist actor Trump wants you to believe he’s the big kahuna. But clearly Trump is not in charge, he is an installed tool controlled by Netanyahu with Epstein files. Trump is an actor playing president. He did not make the “final” decision to attack Iran, that was done by Israel, and Trump is simply implementing the Israeli war agenda pretending to be weighing the options. Trump even says he doesn’t know what he is going to do. Bullshit, he is going to do what Netanyahu tells him to do. Trump is gaslighting the world with theatrics – he is not in charge of jack shit.
The real evil of Trump is that he is a fake, he is not really the President making the decisions – yet pretends to be the one in charge. Each and every day Trump holds the attention of the world with his outrageous statements and war mongering extremist threats. Trump has his orders then plays pretend negotiations, peace deals, etc. – it is all completely fake. Trump doesn’t give one shit who dies while he gaslights the world, our soldiers are dying and Trump doesn’t give one fuck. In fact Trump is manipulating the oil market and playing the futures market, cashing in.
Trump is loving it because he gets to play President and make billions. Trump is an utter piece of shit from hell, he sold the nation down the river just so he could play president. In the last election, (or should I call it a humiliation ritual for Goyim), you were given the false choice between two horrible candidates. Trump was a logical choice over a courtesan whore dimwitted broad. Have you ever wondered if the choice you were given was staged so you would vote for Trump? Kamala Harris was not even a viable candidate. Trump was installed to do the dirty work for the Zionists. Trump delivered his end of the bargain and now we have a disaster on our hands.
Trump is taking Amerika to the cleaners, he is treating the office of the presidency as his personal bank account. What Trump is doing on every level will end badly causing Amerika to fall into total ruin while Trump walks away with tens of billions, laughing his ass off how he played us.
Sane moral people would remove him from office. The fact that he is still POTUS means Amerika is run by the insane and the immoral. People do not understand that Trump is playing us while getting filthy rich looting everyone in the process, from selling camo Bibles to shoes, to selling golden passports, bribing state officials, seizing the oil of foreign states, etc. – Trump’s calculus is always “what’s in it for me”. A huge scandal, much worse than Watergate, is how Trump is placing hundreds of stocks trades ahead of his speeches which affect the values in certain commodities like oil or Dell.
“Dell Scores Major Pentagon Contract Weeks After Trump Promoted Company
Just weeks after President Donald Trump urged Americans to “go out and buy a Dell” and months after he bought millions of dollars worth of stock in the company, the computer giant was awarded a $9.7 billion Pentagon contract.”
I asked Goolag AI:
Trump has not been criminally charged with a stock-related crime. However, lawmakers, legal experts, and state prosecutors have scrutinized several of his financial activities:
The 2025 Tariff Reversal (“Pump and Dump” Allegations)In April 2025, Trump faced accusations of market manipulation and insider trading after a rapid policy reversal.
The Action: Trump posted on Truth Social, “THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!! DJT”. Fewer than four hours later, he blindsided markets by announcing a 90-day pause on global trade tariffs, causing global stock indexes to soar.
The Allegation: Lawmakers like Senator Adam Schiff and Representative Al Green accused Trump of orchestrating a “pump and dump” scheme. Critics alleged his inner circle and major political donors had advance knowledge of the policy shift, using it to execute highly profitable trades before the public announcement.
The Investigation: New York Attorney General Letitia James launched an inquiry into his inner circle for potential insider trading tied to the tariff flip-flop.
The 2026 Disclosure of Mass Stock TradingIn May 2026, federal ethics filings (Form 278) revealed that Trump’s trust was actively trading individual corporate stocks at an unprecedented volume for a sitting president.
The Action: The disclosure revealed over 3,700 financial trades worth tens of millions of dollars in the first quarter of 2026 alone—averaging roughly 59 trades per day.
The Conflict: The filings showed massive stock purchases in companies that Trump directly influenced or publicly promoted around the same time:
Nvidia: Sizable stock purchases occurred shortly before the administration granted the company permission to export advanced AI chips to
China.Boeing & Oracle: Large stock purchases closely preceded major, multi-billion dollar trade or ownership deals brokered by the White House.
DoorDash & Palantir: Trades occurred right before Trump held high-profile photo ops or publicly praised the companies and highlighted their stock tickers.
The art of the deal author has no clue about how to make a deal
Martin Jay – Strategic Review May 29, 2026
“There are lies, and then there are Trump lies. Trump telling reporters that he is in no hurry at all to get a deal with Iran, though, was a lie on a grand scale, making him look even more ridiculous both in front of the Iranians and key players in the region. For a man not in a hurry, he moves with great haste and panic, calling emergency meetings with J. D. Vance and Marco Rubio practically on a weekly basis — which is always followed by a constant menacing narrative that is fooling absolutely no one.
It is the clueless, lost child in a supermarket style that sets Trump apart in the big, grown-up world of international politics — and it has cost him dearly. Critical to getting him out of the hole he dug for himself by believing the BS of Israel in the first place would have been the bond with allies around the world, diplomacy, and working on the respect built up over decades for the White House. When Trump starts his mega tantrum, of course all of these are dissolved instantly, as it becomes clearer each day just how isolated his administration is. This is what you get when you fire all the real diplomats around the world and replace them with U.S. ambassadors from his own cabal of real estate business cronies — people who have been given the gift of a certain country to be ambassador in so that they can use their position to manipulate the market.”

no matter how much you write, things will never change. It has been this way since a LONG time.
While there’s no doubt America’s misguided allegiance to Israel is the source of much death, destruction and misery for the peasants, it is not the fundamental issue facing the once-free western world. Nor is Donald Trump, who is merely acceding to the same program that has guided at least the last ten presidents.
It matters not whether the Empire’s wars on Russia and Iran (and China, eventually) succeed or fail.
Most of the matters which bedevil citizens are of smaller impact and design. They originate within the vast strangulatory apparatus of regulatory bureaucracies, all of which are dominated by ideologues openly committed to the destruction of families, of men, of the principles which built America.
Liberalism is the death of civilization, and liberalism is winning on the home front.
Very well stated.
No mention of both wings being on the same bird of prey.
Interesting.
I’m not even sure I believe the Nuclear hullabaloo surrounding Iran. It sounds similar to how we were assured that Iraq had WMDs and was a hares breath away from using them. If I had to give it a name, Id say Robert Kagan and William Kristol are responsible for our governments willingness to slit our own throats in sacrifice for Israel. Those two garbage human, walking doucebags, along with AIPAC, and the fake news, (every single swinging Richard and Rachel smiling at us from the teevee) have conspired to sell America the lie about the poor, put upon Jewish state.
When this is over, and the whole world is in shambles, expect Israel to cry in pain about how it’s all the United States fault. How poor little Israel was forced to go along against her will. What a shitshow with no end in sight. Good to hear that Trump is finally going to get the straights of Hormuz open again. Funny, I don’t remember them ever being closed until this recent bout of servile obeisance to the pariah state that is at once, both our greatest ally and our greatest misfortune.
Wish there was a way to replace our entire government from top to bottom with one giant no-confidence vote. But alas, voting is nothing more than a form of reparations for retarded drama kids. The ones that got bullied way too much during high school. After that, they were the ones that got swept up in the CIAs mind control matrix. We are well and truly hooped. Thanks garbage elite, and all your shekel dispensing tentacles that lead back to the money power that can never be destroyed.

I used to think once the boomers die off, things will get better. Now I’m wondering if the same applies to my own Gen-X & hope lay in the millennials & Gen-Z. They seem to be sufficiently fed up enough to actually do something. I only base this on convos with young engineers at work; a few of the guests on Judge Nap; Ana Kasparian, etc.
Hi MH,
I know a couple of Gen Z young adults and I do have hope because they are pretty clear-eyed about the situation. Plus, being in their late teens/young 20s, they have their whole lives ahead of them and are invested for that reason. I will do everything I can to help them.
It’s certainly too early to write off Gen Z, and initially I had high hopes for them, too. But from what I’ve seen lately I don’t think you should hold your breath as far as them being America’s saviors. Remember, they were raised in the digital era and have no particular affinity for books or critical thinking. Their “thinking” (such as it is) has been eminently influenced by social media, which means they are under heavy indoctrination — way more so than previous generations. Plus, I’ve heard more than a few of them actively agitate for Communism lately. Yes, they’re “fed up” (and who wouldn’t be), but they seem to be turning to the current power structure for solutions to today’s manufactured problems.
RE: “hope lay in the millennials & Gen-Z.”
Now there’s a scary. thought.

“Critical Thinking Skills.. The other National Deficit”
I read two days ago that SPACEX just landed another $2.29 billion contract. I asked AI how much Musk has rec’d from the federal gov’t since Trump elected–not sure how much Doge saved but seems whatever “savings” have all gone to MUSK:
(AI): “Elon Musk’s companies—primarily SpaceX and Tesla—have secured dozens of ongoing contracts with U.S. government agencies, totaling at least $13.8 billion in awarded funds since Donald Trump returned to office in 2025. The total number and dollar value of these agreements are broken down by the following key facts:
“Active Contracts: SpaceX and Tesla currently hold at least 52 ongoing federal contracts with agencies like NASA, the Defense Department, and the General Services Administration.
“Defense Department Dominance: The Department of Defense (DoD) leads the awards, having directed over $9.5 billion in contracts and federal benefits to Musk’s companies in recent years. This includes massive launch and satellite operation contracts for the U.S. Space Force.
“Potential Future Value: These 52 active deals are on track to yield an additional $11.8 billion for Musk’s businesses over the next few years.
“Classified & Hidden Data: The exact number of contracts is difficult to tally publicly because many classified deals (such as those under SpaceX’s Starshield unit for the intelligence community) are not disclosed in public spending data.”
_______________
In addition to citizens’ data, DOGE got access to all federal contracts/awards (and what companies held them). According to NYT, like with Covid, only the little people/programs (not powerful/no lobby) got cut, other guys managed to keep their contracts:
“But the group did not do what Mr. Musk said it would: reduce federal spending by $1 trillion before October. On DOGE’s watch, federal spending did not go down at all. It went up.
“How is that possible? One big reason, according to a New York Times analysis: Many of the largest savings that DOGE claimed turned out to be wrong. And while the group did make thousands of smaller cuts, jolting foreign aid recipients, American small businesses and local service providers, those amounted to little in the scale of the federal budget.
“In DOGE’s published list of canceled contracts and grants, for instance, the 13 largest were all incorrect. At the top were two Defense Department contracts, one for information technology, one for aircraft maintenance. Mr. Musk’s group listed them as “terminations,” and said their demise had saved taxpayers $7.9 billion. That was not true. The contracts are still alive and well, and those savings were an accounting mirage.
“Together, those two false entries were bigger than 25,000 of DOGE’s other claims combined. Of the 40 biggest claims on DOGE’s list, The Times found only 12 that appeared accurate — reflecting real reductions in what the government had committed to spend.” …Mr. Musk said his group had been “somewhat successful” at cutting spending. But he also said that, if he could go back in time, he would not do it again.
“Instead of doing DOGE, I would have basically built — you know, worked on my companies,” he said.”” [article is long]

Just sitting here wishing I knew how to place stock and options orders to get rich like certain anonymous actors do based on the high proclamations and reversals of our supreme leader.
Hi Dan,
For me, the thing that grates is the way us plebes are in the position of marks at a casino – one which we’ve been born inside of. Honest work and responsible living are punished while those who wheedle and grift are rewarded. The system is set up so as to incentivize gambling and profligacy. There’s never any rest, due to inflation and taxes. Just work like a donkey to try to keep up and then when you no longer can, you’re ready to be discarded – like an old horse that can’t be ridden anymore.
‘Wishing I knew how to place stock and options orders’ — Dan
It’s not a question of knowing how; it’s having access to inside information, so you can shoot fish in a barrel.
Congress Clowns routinely rack up returns well in excess of those achieved by ordinary investors. When a corporate CEO tells them during a fundraising call, “we’re going to release strong earnings next week,” who will be the wiser?
It doesn’t take skill to win a rigged game — only inside connections, and perfidy.
Meanwhile, in the far bigger game of steering the fortunes of the US government — the largest financial entity on the planet — these same “hot hand” Congress Clowns have left it indebted by $39 trillion and ravaged by inflation.
Not so damned smart after all, are they? The sorry results speak for themselves. Under their own feeble powers, they couldn’t punch their way out of a paper bag. I would encourage them to place a cotton ball soaked in carbon tetrachloride into that paper bag, and huff it for all they’re worth. 🙂

With its bizarre capitalization and its convoluted, narcissistic twisting of facts into a warped narrative with a heroic, embattled Trump at its center, this unhinged essay could serve as Exhibit A in a petition for involuntary psychiatric commitment.
Not only is Trump, who started a war of aggression for Israel, a traitor — his entire cabinet, who have a constitutional duty to sideline a mentally ill president, have placed blind partisan loyalty above duty to country.
Clowngress should impeach the entire lot of traitors, en masse.
Needless to say, an empire led a madman, and helpless to remove him despite having the constitutional tools to do so, is over. The Orange Flake is a menace to the entire world, as his regression into infantilism accelerates.
It appears increasingly unlikely that the babbling, deranged goofball will complete his term.

Regarding oil exports, until 2015, there was a ban on oil exports. In 1975, congress at least had the sense to make sure that greedy corporations wouldn’t sell our precious resources to the world. When the ban was lifted, exports jumped.
Since the ban was lifted our gas prices have been higher than they otherwise would be given our tight oil market. Part of it is the gasoline blending, but the oil export ban elimination plays a role. Its harder to tell in a tight market, but it appears that way. When oil was 145 a barrel in 2008, gas prices peaked at 4.24. Today its about 4.50 with far lower prices.
Trump pushed that beautiful liquid gold to fatten oil company’s pockets.
The repeal of the export ban is the real subsidy, not what liberals are crowing about.
Letter mailed to outgoing Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard [cc: Congress Clowns] on Thursday:
‘Dear Director Gabbard:
On May 23 the Daily Wire reported that you will release findings on Havana Syndrome, the origins of COVID-19, the alleged weaponization of the federal government under recent administrations, and the 2020 presidential election.
This is all well and good, but for one glaring omission: your intelligence assessment of Israel’s nuclear capabilities. It has been over fifty years since US intelligence assessed that Israel possesses over 90 nuclear warheads, and possibly as many as 200. Yet despite being publicized in the Sunday Times forty years ago, and publicly conceded by both US and Israeli officials, this vital information remains concealed.
Since a September 27, 1969 meeting between President Nixon and Israeli PM Golda Meir, every presidential administration has carried on a criminal conspiracy to violate the Symington amendment, 22 U.S. Code § 2799aa-1. The perpetrators have maliciously misled Congress and lied to the American people.
You now have the opportunity to put a stop to this ongoing crime by releasing the long-suppressed intelligence assessment of Israel’s nuclear capabilities. I pray that you will do so.

Nuclear-armed, mad dog Israel is our misfortune.
‘Trump is bellowing about … any nuclear materials the Iranians may possess.’ — eric
Which is pure Israeli hasbara. Outlaw Israel has possessed outlaw nuclear weapons since the late 1960s. It refuses to sign the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty — unlike Iran, which has signed the NNPT, and does not possess nuclear warheads.
Criminal perp Israel pointing the finger of nuclear blame at Iran is Hebraic chutzpah on the same scale as the legendary parricide who threw himself on the mercy of the court, on the grounds that he was now an orphan.
But wait, it gets worse: Israel actually stole its highly enriched uranium from the United States:
‘In February 1976, Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Chairman William Anders invited CIA Deputy Director for Science and Technology Carl Duckett to brief senior NRC officials. Instead of dismissing the rumors [of Israel’s theft], Duckett stunned the audience by confirming the CIA’s belief that Israel had illegally obtained highly enriched uranium from NUMEC and used it to develop its first nuclear weapons.
‘Attorney General Edward Levi then wrote a remarkable memo to President Ford listing multiple federal statutes that may have been violated, stating his belief not only that uranium had been unlawfully removed from Apollo, but that federal officials themselves may have committed felonies by concealing the events after the fact.’

To invoke one of Eric’s favorite villains, Israel’s nuclear calumnies against Iran are analogous to serial murderer Ted Bundy impeaching his accusers by loudly denouncing them for speeding, littering, and failing to put enough nickels in the parking meter.
Ventriloquist dummy Trump daily parrots outlaw Israel’s hyperbolic charges against Iran, while 535 coke-sniffing Congress Clowns clap their flippers and go ‘Ork, ork ork!‘
Theft victim America literally sucks the ass of those who plundered it. Don’t you dare ask why. Thass auntie-shemitic, bigot!!
