So basically, we are reducing sanctions on Russia so that they can get paid more to help the Iranians against us. Hell of a plan!

This is AI. Maybe you already knew that, maybe you didn't but this isn't real.

gag me, with or without a spoon

for the kiddies..
Quote:
THE MEANING: I'm disgusted!
THE ORIGIN: "Gag me with a spoon" was one of many '80s phrases rooted in the distinct dialect of Valley girls. These early-'80s teens lived in California's San Fernando Valley and were known for hanging out at the mall and speaking in a breezy cadence peppered with the words "like" and "totally."
Valley girls were also fond of phrases that seemed to end with a question mark, even when they weren't questions; this is known as uptalk, and it's often associated with young women.
"Gag me with a spoon" is a Valley girl phrase used to indicate disgust as being gagged with a spoon definitely sounds unpleasant. The idiom gained broader recognition through avant-garde rocker Frank Zappa's 1982 hit "Valley Girl," which featured his teen daughter, Moon, doing her very best Val-speak.

You have to figure Donny and Eric will enlist for the sport of it. When your prey shoots back it is the ultimate adrenaline rush. Exotic animals, like Libs, are p@ussies.

The Kurds may not be so quick to buy the Trump merch:

" For the Kurds, acting as the tip of the American spear has historically ended in disaster. In the 1970s, the US and Iran heavily armed Iraqi Kurdish rebels to bleed the government in Baghdad. Yet, once the shah of Iran secured a territorial concession from Iraq in 1975, he cut off the Kurds overnight with Washington's approval. He himself was deposed in a revolution four years later.

This scenario repeated itself with devastating consequences in 1991. After then-US President George HW Bush encouraged Iraqis both the Kurdish and Shia communities persecuted under Saddam Hussein to rise up, the US military stood by as loyalist forces regrouped and used helicopter gunships to indiscriminately slaughter tens of thousands of civilians and rebels.…..

The dark irony of Washington asking Iranian Kurds to take up arms today is compounded by the recent collapse of Kurdish autonomy in neighbouring Syria. For years, the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) served as the primary US proxy against ISIL (ISIS) and led the way to vanquishing the armed group in 2019 after years of fighting and suffering.

Yet in January, a little more than a year after the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad, the Trump administration backed Syria's new central government in Damascus, essentially ending support for the SDF and Kurdish autonomy.

The US envoy to Syria, Thomas Barrack, declared that the original purpose of the SDF had largely expired. Within weeks, the SDF lost 80 percent of the territory it had bled for. For the Kurds across the region watching these events unfold, the implications were profound: The US is no longer perceived as a reliable partner or supporter of minorities…..

The calculus is different for Iranian Kurds, known as Rojhelati. Betrayed by the Soviet Union in 1946, they have acutely suffered under successive Iranian governments and may view this as their "first and only opportunity" to change their status.

However, Allouch warned that without a solid US military commitment, which Trump has shown no desire to provide, this move could be "suicidal" against a fierce Iranian military response."

While US encourages Kurds to attack Iran, history serves darker warning | History | Al Jazeera https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2026/3/5/while-us-encourages-kurds-to-attack-iran-history-serves-darker-warning

Also see the Hmongs in Vietnam, they were armed by the US and fought the Viet Cong, and after the US bailed they were wiped out.

"A Kurdish official told Axios: "The Iranians have thousands of years of built-up patience ... They know that in a couple of years, there might be a new president in the United States, and who knows what's going to happen in Israel. And their goal right now is to outlast this."
Axios

Question: Can somewhere here please explain to me why the United States should expect Iran to extract any less blood and treasure from us fending off this invasion than Ukraine has extracted from Russia?

To your point, they've spent DECADES planning the "blockade" of the Strait of Hormuz.

That's their single biggest Trump card.

This post by Trump sure didn't age well.

Trump is so DUMB he actually thinks that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian is running the show.

Iran continued to send drone attacks at their neighbors after he made this speech.

Duh.
