    I just saw an Iranian general issue a request to the US, “Come closer.” Doesn’t sound like someone who the Tangerine Torquemada says every Monday has been defeated.

    Monday (to shore up markets): “We are ready to negotiate.” Friday (after markets close): “We will rain down hell upon them.” This should be called the Short War, as the Trump family and all his buddies are making a killing, literally and figuratively, buying and selling short, based on their advanced knowledge of Dump’s Truth Social tirades.

      You probably also heard on the news that there was a “fire” on an aircraft carrier deployed to Hormuz caused by the laundry detergent. And they had to pull back because of the fire.

      At the same time there was a simultaneous incident on the deck as well where a member of the crew slipped and fell and created a large crater.

      It just happened to be a very unfortunate circumstance that they were close to Iran when these things simultaneously happened all of a sudden, together at the same time.
