Sure, but think of all the airfare Tom Dundon now has to pay for.
Hellloooooo? Have you heard of the Iran war's impact on jet fuel?

OK amateur lip readers, what is she saying to him?
I'm going with "How the fuck can you be THIS dumb and still be alive?"
A dog this cute deserves to live forever!
In some of the replays, you can hear him going "Oh nooooo!" multiple times as he's attempting to get up. Like he knows he's acutely aware he's toast. Has he been concussed before?
You know, he could always rent multiple U-Hauls, right?
It gives Trump two weeks to cook up some pathetic excuse for walking away from the war with the US and rest of world worse off than when it started.
It doesn't help that with this country's short attention span, many will forget as this story just fades away.
Well, it *IS* Tuesday.
Clearly Trump's into "Israel First", "Russia First" and "America...Meh".
You forgot "bigly".
Yet another "two weeks" from Trump on "TACO Tuesday".
Many people are saying, with tears in their eyes, that Trump is very predictable. Bigly.
Is it TACO Tuesday time yet?
Tucker Carlson as the voice of reason was NOT on my Bingo card.
One thing's for sure: Trump's hopes for a Nobel Peace Prize are taking a hit today.
If only we had a constitutional mechanism for doing something about it? ๐
I'm just a lowly fish but what do you humans think?
ENOUGH IS FUCKING ENOUGH. It's time for the House, Senate and Trump cabinet to start acting like tons of lives depend on them actually governing for once.
And with regards to wiping out a "whole civilization", are the US Armed Forces going to carry out those obviously illegal orders (whether it be with conventional or nuclear weapons)?
With no one putting the brakes on the Violent Orange Cheeto, he's going to keep asking for worse and worse things.
So WTAF are we waiting for? Trump has given the Republicans the ultimate opening to do the right thing -- sideline Trump immediately!
As @gtconway.bsky.social and others have rightfully said, he's just going to keep getting worse. Better cut our losses now before we're looking at multiple generations of shame and reparations payments.
Why aren't more Republicans pushing back on wiping out a "whole civilization"? Its only a matter of time before Trump starts asking about nuclear weapons.
My best guess: The "whole civilization will die tonight" thing is just bluster to try to force the Iranians to cave. But they won't and we'll be left with the two lose-lose options. Hopefully it's option #1 (TACO Tuesday).
WRT "whole civilization will die tonight", how is Trump going to do that with the few remaining Tomahawks left?
Unless he's going to nuke #Iran, even if he proceeds with taking out bridges & power plants, the "whole civilization" will still be around tomorrow and Trump's threat will look silly.
Since the Iranians aren't going to fold, this is a YUGE lose-lose for Trump and all of the US.
The supposed "stable genius" and "best negotiator ever" has really boxed himself in with the #Iran ultimatum:
1) He can TACO (on a Tuesday, no less) and get laughed at in perpetuity.
2) He can follow through and subject himself and the US to war crimes and expensive reparations down the road.
I think they're taking the "no fatties" thing a bit too seriously, no?
Next thing you know Trump is going to say that the Iranians gave us "March Madness" as a present.
What other presents could they give us?
Does your wife not read your Bluesky posts?
Now Trump says that Iran gave the US "another present...20 boatloads of oil that starts being shipped tomorrow".
Seems like this could be verified with satellite pics of Kharg tomorrow.
@carlquintanilla.bsky.social -- What do your sources say on this? Or is it time to break out the ๐คก again?

Trump says that Iran's "present" to the US was "10 massive boatloads of oil". He makes it sound like this has already happened. But why hasn't anyone reported on 10 ships going through Hormuz headed to the US? Hmmmmm.... ๐ค

@darthputinkgb.bsky.social -- What more would be needed to make it 100% master strategy?
