Proud Trump shows off new cartoon of himself — apparently blind to its true meaning
Good Thursday morning beloved sentients. Things are getting VERY craZy in the U-NAKED States of America--as my father used to jokingly call the US 70 years ago.. I’ve been saying literally for years now that I don’t know how a Revolution has not taken place down there yet. How much longer can the public tolerate the fumbling authoritarian dictatorship headed by a imbecilic, corrupt, narcissistic psychopathic MadMan?
Today, Trump is having a conniption fit–because someone leaked to Reuters the classified information that the US has NO more missiles left. LOL…talking about being exposed! Folks, as a Canadian who spent 2025 thinking we were going to be militarily attacked at any moment by the US–that’s good news indeed!
I’m sure Iranians will sleep better as well. Here is the latest “deal” Iran just announced they’ve made with Oman regarding The Strait of Hormuz. Read it and weep…if you’re an American…have a good belly laugh if you’re not. Another knee-slapper from Iran….lolololol.
I can hardly wait for the LEGO video!
JUST IN: IRAN’S PARLIAMENT IS REVIEWING A NEW DRAFT BILL THAT WOULD INTRODUCE NEW RULES FOR THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ & THE PERSIAN GULF
The new rules include:
- Banning vessels from the U.S., Israel, and other “hostile countries” from transiting the strait.
- Prohibiting all Israel-linked cargo, military or civilian.
- Blocking ships or cargo involved in actions against the Axis of Resistance.
- Denying passage to countries or individuals that have harmed Iran until compensation is paid.
- Imposing fines of up to 20% of cargo value for violations.
- Assigning the government and armed forces responsibility for navigation control, traffic monitoring, security, and environmental protection.

Greencrow continues: LOL So the situation is. prior to Israel blackmailing Trump to sucker punch attack Iran. killing the leader of Iran [also the religious leader of millions of Muslims] his family and his cabinet–the Strait of Hormuz was open to all. Now it’s Open to All–with the exception of any of Trump’s criminal and genocidal cohorts–including Israel. Folks, any other leader in the entire history of humanity would resign in disgrace at this turn of events.
Venezuela is another country that should take heart from the leaked news about the missile gap at the Pentagon. Trump keeps bragging about how–like some Mafioso thug on the streets of New York would slam an old lady down on the sidewalk and run away with her purse…he kidnapped the leader of Venezuela and his wife on a ‘trumped” up drug charge–and is now openly stealing Venezuelan oil.
The world is supposed to be impressed by this level of braZen thuggery. If I know anything about human nature–I would place bets that Venezuela is just biding its time…and will soon start a resistance movement–like the violent and bloody ones going on in Iraq and Syria as i type.
Also recently…the other shoe dropped and it was publicly acknowledged that both the Ukraine proxy war on Russia and the Iran War are being masterminded and instigated by the same inhumane Psewdos. The cause of all wars and satanic evil on this planet.
Folks back to the strange happenstance that Trump remains in office after basically singlehandedly wrecking the United States’ economy, military reputation and foreign relations worldwide. I was around during the Watergate Scandal of the early 70’s I remember from soup to nuts it took two years to force Nixon to resign over far less egregious acts than Trump is guilty of. Here is the history of that crisis:
Watergate scandal – Wikipedia 1972 – 1974
So the United States was able to relatively quickly divest itself of a failure of a president…and Nixon wasn’t even that much of a failure…after all, he was the first US president to visit China. I did a deep dive into the Nixon presidency years ago and discovered Nixon’s real crime was to discover who was responsible for the Kennedy assassination–and be considered untrustworthy in terms of keeping that a deep, dark secret. The ‘tell’ on that is the fact Nixon’s Vice President Spiro Agnew was forced to resign prior to Nixon and was replaced by….wait for it….wait a little longer for it...Gerald Ford,–who was one of the leading members of the Warren Commission “investigation/cover-up” of the Kennedy assassination. There you have it folks. Nixon had to go–because he might blurt out the truth that Israel killed Kennedy.

Greencrow continues: Folks we’re in the middle of the annual forest arson season. This has become a ritual for the black ops folks. In South America every summer they have forest burn-off too with a lot of smoke etc. But there these burn offs are a planned strategy of forest management–not an opportunity to terrorize/control the public.
My assessment is that the government hires convicts to go out and set fires every summer for the double purpose of deliberate burn-offs and terror…black op brainwashing about “climate change”. I could go into the assocated strategies of creation of extreme weather events such as “heat domes”. “atmospheric rivers”, tornadoes and even earthquakes [Venezuela] and volcanic eruptions…..
Yes, Trump may have run out of missiles–but has he run out of HAARP, DEW arson and EMP events? That’s the Question.

Greencrow continues: Here’s a really good analysis from PressTV, Iran’s semi-official press agency: This analysis examines the biZarre whiplash pronouncements coming out of the White House [often in the dead of night] and whether or not they represent official government policy. Please read these two snippets and I will have final comments to follow:
**********
“Threat, ultimatum, retreat: Why Trump’s bellicose rhetoric against Iran always ends in backtracking
Threat, ultimatum, retreat: Why Trump’s bellicose rhetoric against Iran always ends in backtracking
“,,,April crisis: ultimatums and ceasefires
Perhaps the most famous rhetorical escalation came at the beginning of April, when during a White House address, Trump warned that the United States could send Iran “back to the Stone Age,” implying an overwhelming attack against the country’s critical infrastructure.
The threat immediately generated expectations of imminent strikes. But the administration again stepping back at the last moment, and canceled the promised operation, with military deployments remaining in place while Washington continued exploring diplomatic options.
The contrast between the severity of the language and the absence of immediate major military action quickly became one of the defining examples of the TACO narrative, as observers noted that Iran had once again weathered the storm of American rhetoric without making the concessions Washington forcefully and illogically demanded.
The most famous example of the TACO pattern emerged on April 7 and 8, when Trump publicly announced a deadline and warned that failure to reach an agreement acceptable to the US would result in attacks on Iranian power plants, bridges, and other strategic infrastructure.
The threat was accompanied by chilling language warning that “a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” crossing a line that no American president had previously dared or wanted to approach against the Islamic Republic.
Only two days before the deadline, Iran had presented a ten-point proposal intended to halt the US-Israeli aggression against Iran, and initially Trump had rejected the proposal, putting up a tough front.
Then, roughly an hour before the ultimatum was supposed to expire, the administration abruptly suspended the planned attacks and instead announced a two-week ceasefire to allow further negotiations in line with the same Iranian proposal that Trump had previously rejected.
Trump proclaimed a “double-sided CEASEFIRE,” adding that in return for his halt to the bombing campaign, Iran had agreed to the complete, immediate, and safe opening of the Strait of Hormuz.
Iranian officials immediately presented a different interpretation, with Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi making clear that Iran would not relax any of its leverage even during the ceasefire period, showing who had the upper hand and who held the cards.
The reversal, occurring just before the advertised deadline, rapidly became the most widely discussed Iran-related TACO example and was cited by commentators as a classic case of a maximalist threat followed by a last-minute retreat in favor of diplomacy.
Ceasefire and Its extensions
The ceasefire announced on April 8 was originally described as temporary, but as it approached expiration, Trump unexpectedly and unilaterally extended it, claiming that Pakistan had requested additional time for diplomacy.
This became another widely discussed episode of American retreat because only hours before, Iranian officials had expected renewed bombing and were prepared for any eventuality.
Throughout this period, Trump’s threats continued even as active military aggression remained suspended, with the megalomaniac president warning that continued Iranian resistance could result in catastrophic consequences for the country.
Several commentators argued that these repeated reversals considerably weakened the credibility of Washington’s deterrence because Iran increasingly appeared willing to wait for the next diplomatic pause rather than yielding immediately.
The unilateral extension of the ceasefire beyond its original announced duration, the repeated postponement of attacks while Pakistan attempted mediation, and the thirty-day extension of sanctions relief during negotiations all followed the same pattern of threat followed by retreat from the American side.
Critics lampooned another TACO moment, noting that on the surface the president’s decision was another instance when he adopted a maximalist position only to back down in a way that erased his red lines and raised further doubts about his war strategy.
Iran’s unchallenged control on the strait during the ceasefire underscored the fact that Trump had no good options in a war that had slipped out of his control and that he was desperate to end.
The fear that ending the war with an Iranian chokehold over the strait would be a strategic disaster and a defeat for Trump was palpable among his supporters, yet the threat-retreat cycle continued…”
….
“…Legacy of TACO: Destroying American deterrence
The persistent cycle of posturing and pullback has significant implications for American credibility and deterrence on the global stage, effectively marking an end to the era of US hegemony.
Trump’s threats have been largely viewed by analysts as a negotiating tactic influenced by pressure from pro-Israeli interests, rather than a genuine intention to wage a larger war given the bitter experience of the past two wars that resulted in decisive American defeats.
The repeated reliance on unfulfilled threats has served only to undermine Washington’s own credibility, as Iran’s intelligence network has been closely monitoring American military movements and has prepared appropriate responses.
The TACO dynamic made it increasingly clear to both regional players and international observers that Washington’s aggressive rhetoric represents little more than tactical bluster, a perception that has profound implications for American diplomacy and deterrence.
The TACO doctrine has become the defining feature of Trump’s approach to Iran, a pattern of threat and retreat that has demonstrated the limits of American power projection while reinforcing the effectiveness of Iranian strategic deterrence.”

Greencrow concludes: LOL folks, below is the exact RANT where Trump threatens to imprison the truthtellers who tried to save the US from a long deserved complete military rout–by forcing it to step back from taunting Iran:

Finally, Trump only has one alternative to “resignation in disgrace’ [the best option for the US] and that’s to nuke Iran and claim victory that way.
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/I4gsnsT0AkQ?feature=share
I have been saying for months that Trump WILL nuke Iran–and he would have already done it were he not dissuaded [told “NO!”] by the courageous few cooler heads in the United States military.
Stay tuned.
