| second: Iran says it will not negotiate with Donald Trump and will maintain its current strategy until his presidency ends in 2029. Tehran also insists the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed until Washington accepts its conditions.

| second: 6ix, Trump trashes around, trying all his many words, but the Iranians won't surrender to him and he doesn't know what new words and horrible threats will work magic. For example, he rejects Iranian demands for war reparations before opening the Strait of Hormuz. Instead he demands that the Iranians compensation him for lives lost in past regional conflicts. He thinks that is a very clever plan, but the Iranians laugh at him. They aren't intimidated by his mighty threats to bankrupt them. What next? Maybe threaten to bomb Iran, again? It didn't work before, but maybe next time it will. Maybe bigger bombs will work? How about another vague threat to nuke Iran? |
6ixStringJack: Maybe, huh? Be sure to give us an update on that story as it develops, Shit Golem.

| second: Prompted by an Iranian assassination threat, Donald Trump departed on a secret military flight from Turkey last month when the White House said he was flying aboard Air Force One, in an extraordinary ruse that involved hiding the president in an airport catering cart. He boarded Air Force One in view of television cameras, and then was secretly shuttled minutes later to a smaller plane via an airport catering truck typically used to load meals.
A credible threat to Trump involving Iran set the “deception operation” in motion.

The Iranians certainly got into Trump's head. |

| 6ixStringJack: Nah... Just post more political cartoons. Because you don't know how to use that brain you've let waste away. |
| 6ixStringJack: "Gilligan, you are the angriest illiterate man I've ever come across. Yet, you make me laugh. Perhaps that's why?" Illiterate? That's funny, cocksucker. Why don't you show us how you think the apostrophe is used. Or tell is all about the "Coal Minors". Or maybe you can use the wrong version of To/Two/Too or There/Their/They're another 20 times for us today. I don't think you've met your daily quota on those yet. You're the dumbest fucking person I've ever met. |
| second: It seems extremely unlikely that the Trump administration will be chastened by its failure in Iran. Shamelessness has been central to Trump’s business and political success, and his reaction to setbacks is to deny objective facts and construct fantasies of achievement. The rigors of war do not seem to have persuaded him of the need for a more coherent process of policy formulation and assessment; he continues to blurt out his every whim, and a cabinet of sycophants and amplifiers is unlikely to impose discipline on an undisciplined principal. Nor can the two parts of the government that have apparently provided solid strategic judgments—the CIA and the military—salvage the process. They are advisory bodies, not policy actors, and Trump repudiates or ignores their counsel whenever it conflicts with his claims or preferences.

| second: The Department of Homeland Security has stopped releasing timely, reliable statistics on immigration enforcement. The administration’s immigration crackdown continues in a fog of fake numbers and statistical subterfuge. ICE statistics show that the agency deported about 400,000 people during Trump’s first year in office, a figure well short of the White House’s goal of 1 million annual removals. [go to link] |
