    So much winning that Russell Vought declined to give senators an estimate of the cost of the military operations against Iran when pressed on the issue during a hearing. Billions and billions, and asking for more, in a war which could cost a trillion dollars after all is said and done, depleted weapons need restocked, and disability claims, death benefits roll in from vets, and such.

    This Project 2025 scumbag Trump loyalist can't do his job, refuses to tell the truth about spending or state the facts, yet was full on board DOGE firing away to so called fraud, waste, and spending. Meanwhile, Israel will start bombing away again soon and we will support them financially.

    Trump will go on waging wars somewhere else, Israel will start bombing away again, supported and funded by the taxpayers, another trillion added to the National Debt, and MAGA folks will call it a win if their gas prices finally go back down. This is madness. Their electric bills, insurance rates, and cost of groceries keeps rising, healthcare is still unaffordable, and they have to deal with more price jacking this hurricane season season.

    No. What happened is Iran accomplished its goal of stopping Israel from bombing Lebanon.

    I wanted the Strait open and it is. That's good and I'm happy. Unlike you I am an honest person. You should try it sometime, you'll live longer.

    The conditions:

    1. All passage rerouted through Iranian territorial waters via Larak Island, a "historic, unprecedented change ensuring Iran's sovereignty over the strait forever"

    2. Only "commercial" ships allowed, with Iran alone deciding which ships qualify, enemy-linked vessels excluded, and tolls still required for security provision

    3. All transit coordinated by the IRGC Navy, with Iran's military fully controlling passage through the strait

    Do you ever stop embarrassing yourself Jesus christ you are a effing moron

    That's a pretty shitty definition of "fully open" @El_Conquistador

    Never trust a single word MAGA claims or what Trump says. He just wants to pump the markets on a Friday. He's a fraud and so are his followers

    So what happens in 10 days when Israel starts bombing Lebanon again? No one thinks they're done, do they?

    Meh. As is always the case with these things, it takes time for implementation.

    They never stopped

    Theres zero evidence from the Iranian side that they agreed on opening the strait without coordinating with the IRGC.

    Trump deserves a lot of credit. He went to war with Iran, killed a bunch of people but in the end, he got the Strait of Hormuz open. If not for this war, the Strait would still be closed. Nobody expected Trump could get this deal. Nobody predicted it. But now the Strait is open and it's all because of Trump.

    No one’s ever seen anything like it. The reviews are amazing.

    Best of all, Ayatollah Khamenei has been replaced by Ayatollah Khamenei and Iran's already-obliterated nuclear program has been obliterated again.

    I, personally, cannot wait to see how quickly it needs to be obliterated again in season 3 of this reality show.

    There's something special about having a government so inept that having no government at all would be an improvement.

    A tremendous victory, perhaps the greatest. Many people are saying THE greatest. The likes of which you have never seen before. Never. Not even close.
