Trump had time on his side during the ceasefire - until he imposed the blockade per the recommendation of FDD, Israel, and Lindsey Graham. Though the blockade is hurting Iran, it has ended up hurting Trump more, with oil prices now exceeding where they were even during the war itself.

Stunning! It was achieved through the wars Israel pushed the US into, the genocide it committed, and the manner in which criticism of Israel has been punished. It's backfiring MASSIVELY. Among men under 50, Israel's favourability has tanked from -3 in 2022 to -47 in 2026!

Both Trump and Iran need a deal. Iran is in dire need of sanctions relief, and it can only lock in its gains in the war through a deal. Trump desperately needs to end the war before it does more damage to his presidency and to the GOP.

Told @cnn that Trump's focus on appearing as the winner is starting to become a threat to the negotiations. Instead of de-escalating the situation, Trump has not been able to resist mocking Iran and portraying Iranian restraint as a sign of weakness. This is self-sabotage.

A resident in Tehran films the US and Israel bomb densely populated neighborhoods in Tehran. These are clearly massive munitions with little to no regard for civilian casualties. Indeed, the entire neighborhood is engulfed in fire and smoke. Just as Israel did in Gaza.

Trump says he'll bomb Iran to the Stone Age and then the next President must bomb again. This is the Israelization of America's war - it's Israel's mowing-the-lawn policy This is precisely why previous Presidents resisted Israel's pressure for war w/ Iran: To avoid endless war

Told @Bannons_WarRoom that if the US position in Islamabad truly was zero enrichment, we should not be surprised that the talks failed; we should be surprised that that was the US strategy. It raises questions about the sincerity of the talks.

I explained on @cnn that Lebanon may be the real sticking point, since Iran demands Israel end the bombardment of that country. “For the Iranians, this is a test to see whether the United States is capable of controlling and reining in Israel.”

If you want escalation, surrender is what you should be looking for. That's why pro-Israeli voices are pushing for outlandish demands - because they know it will beget escalation and more war.

Told @AJEnglish that the Israelis are driving this war right now, and Trump must retake control of it because Israel's interest diverges from that of the US. Israel wants to prolong the war to degrade Iran's industrial base - regardless of the cost to the global economy.

Told @aje that the military option with Iran was tested - and it failed. Going forward, the potency of American military threats in US-Iran diplomacy no longer carries much weight. This will fundamentally change the dynamic in US-Iran talks.

Anthony Scaramucci: “If Obama acted the way Trump is acting, Fox News hosts would be calling for his impeachment. This guy is falling asleep in the Oval Office. He spent $8.2T in his first term, and he’s going to rack up $9-10T at the pace he’s on now.”

This is political satire—not a Jewish control trope—and it lands because Americans recognize it. Some will label it antisemitic to dodge criticism—that’s a way uncomfortable commentary gets shut down. But when something hits SNL stage this hard, it’s tapping into broader popular culture sentiment.🤦🏿‍♂️

Wistikles | Trump’s new $100,000 H-1B visa fee policy is facing criticism after reports suggested it may have reduced applications and cost the U.S. government millions. Only 85 applicants reportedly paid the fee, generating $8.5M, leading to an estimated $20M net loss. #wistikles #Trump #H1BVisa
