"I don't know whether [Trump] really believes that [vandals damaged the reflecting pool] or it's part of his political messaging or he's just thinking out loud. He exists loudly, and he grows anxious when he has an unexpressed thought. I'm not saying he doesn't really believe it, I just don't know," [Rep. Senator John] Kennedy said. __ This is a serious matter: a member of Trump's own party is staying publicly he's not sure if Trump is delusional or lying. Either way Trump is unfit for office.

"Trump calls off Iran strikes subject to deal being ‘rapidly’ reached" _____ Just to be clear this is the same war that Trump said he won about 5 months ago and more recently he said he doesn't care how long it takes to settle. Trump is a petulant cunt.

"Tehran is now using its proxy network to sustain leverage while the diplomatic track absorbs international attention," Saudi analyst Hesham Alghannam said. "The proxy war is the continuation of the direct war by other means, and it is being run with considerable strategic coherence." ____ Too bad the Trump administration is incapable of applying "considerable strategic coherence." Trump has turned our allies into enemies and has shown our enemies how weak we are. Trump is a petulant cunt.

"Hegseth takes heat from Republicans in back-to-back hearings" ______ This is really unfair: everyone knows that the Iran War is all President Biden's fault. Biden's all- WOKE military including low- testosterone "fighters" is the reason why we're losing another war. Also trending: Trump is a petulant cunt.

The Saudi push for a nuclear accord with Washington, [Dr. Heather Wilson] added, echoes “a hedging strategy we are seeing with other allies and partners. Their neighborhoods are increasingly dangerous,” in many cases because their old guarantor of security, the US, “isn’t as reliable as it once was.” The result is that they seek alternative deals and arrangements to bolster their security. _______ Trump is old and doesn't care about the future of the US or the planet. He is a petulant cunt.

"Two U.S. troops killed, one missing in Iranian missile attack on Jordan" _____ Private Bonespurs strikes again. But good news! Trump is raking in BILLIONS as president! Trump is a petulant cunt, a traitor, a felon, a rapist and now a murderer.

"The [Virginia] county, which has spent years encouraging data centre development, is now facing a steep increase in its power bills. From 1 July, electricity rates for Henrico’s government and schools will rise by nearly 25 percent, adding about $5 million in annual costs." ______ The defining characteristic of American society is socializing the costs while privatizing the profits.

"At Trump’s Direction, Federal Agencies Are Abandoning Discrimination Cases - President Trump has tried to scale back anti-discrimination regulations that date back decades. Federal agencies have heeded his call." ______ We have come full circle since Trump's father Fred and he were charged with housing discrimination in New York city. Or, to paraphrase the Doobie Brothers: Behaviors that were once illegal are now encouraged. Trump is a petulant cunt.

"The United States already lost the fight Trump started; it failed to achieve his declared goal of the Iranian regime’s unconditional surrender, or, barring that, Tehran’s acceptance of stringent nuclear restrictions. Now the conflict is over whether Iran controls Hormuz and can charge fees, or if the U.S. can restore the pre-war status quo, with ships transiting freely." ____________ Trump fucks everything he touches.

@philphi@metalhead.club Yes it was grown outdoors but my property is covered with tall poplar trees so my plants didn't get enough sun. I am told you can get up to a pound of bud per pot plant-- I got maybe a quarter of that yield. BUT-- what I got is GOOD, ONE-HIT POT-- and enough to last me for decades!
