A wicked person is less dangerous because a wicked person will still look out for him or herself

Trump Gets a Warrior's Thanks at UFC 327

Miami went wild Saturday night as President Donald Trump sat ringside for UFC 327. After a brutal light heavyweight war, winner Paulo Costa leaped out of the octagon, made a beeline for Trump, and shook his hand like a true champion.

"Thank you for doing what you're doing. I needed to tell you this," Costa said straight to the president.

Trump grinned and fired back with classic style: "You're too good looking to be a fighter... and you are some fighter."

Just raw respect from a hard-hitting Brazilian beast to the man fighting for America every single day. While the media obsesses over division, real warriors know strength when they see it. Trump draws the biggest crowds, the loudest cheers, and now even the toughest fighters in the world are lining up to thank him.
You have like 3 - 4 guests here who can view your ululating.
So you just comforting yourself, you aint changing anyone's mind here.

Viktor Orbán has conceded in a speech to supporters, telling them: "The result of the election is clear and painful."

Only a country made up of fools will look at Vance and Trump and seek to elect leaders like them with the way they’re currently running the USA.

As terrible as Trump is, this guy is deeply unlikeable. It is difficult to imagine how anyone could manage it but he does.

He has all the same lack of morals as Trump without any of the sleazy loudmouth charm that Trump seems to have on the slimeballs who support him

Kind of resembles some here where others' religions are concerned.

..... often cites passages from the Talmud to make claims about Jewish beliefs, such as that Jews approve of stealing and raping as long as the crimes are committed against non-Jews. Other figures ...... have similarly taken passages from the Talmud, but rabbis have criticized those figures for using quotes that are mistranslated and often taken out of context from the text, which includes centuries of rabbinic debates and is not a formal code of laws.

Unlikeable is an understatement. Trump can even clown around in a way that can sometimes make one laugh. There is something downright scarily creepy about Vance. He is deeply weird, the sort of person who one would not be surprised to learn was a closet serial killer or so. Stiff and unpleasant in all his ways. I think most people have an instinctive dislike and suspicion of him

LoLz. Modern day Caligula.

Caligula was preoccupied with his own survival. Given near limitless powers to use as he saw fit, he used them to feed his sense of self-importance, "practically devoid of any sense of moral responsibility, a man for whom the tenure of the principate was little more than an opportunity to exercise power". Caligula "clearly had a highly developed sense of the absurd, resulting in a form of humour that was often cruel, sadistic and malicious, and which made its impact essentially by cleverly scoring points over those who were in no position to respond in kind."

Can you list how many wars Iran has started and let's compare to how many the USA has started.
Ayatollahs mean what they say death to America Death to Israel. The notion that Iran is an innocent country suddenly attacked is just laughable.

Since 1979, studies have identified at least 218 Iranian external operations, including assassinations, abductions, and surveillance plots. While Iran frequently uses proxies to maintain plausible deniability, various international courts and intelligence agencies have directly linked the Iranian government or the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to several major attacks.

Significant Attacks with Direct Involvement1
1
1983 Beirut Barracks Bombings: 241 U.S. and 58 French service members killed; U.S. courts found high-level Iranian officials directly implicated.
2.
1994 AMIA Bombing (Argentina): 85 people killed in a Jewish community center; Argentinian investigators determined the attack was plotted by Iranian officials in Mashhad.
3.
1996 Khobar Towers Bombing (Saudi Arabia): 19 U.S. service members killed; U.S. courts found Iran responsible for directing and supporting the attack.
4.
1998 U.S. Embassy Bombings (Kenya/Tanzania): 224 people killed; U.S. courts found Iran provided Al-Qaeda with the training and assistance necessary for the bombings.
5 The USS Cole Bombing (2000)While the attack on the USS Cole in Aden, Yemen, was physically carried out by Al-Qaeda, the U.S. legal system has formally linked Iran to the operation.
6.
603 American Deaths from EFPs (Iraq War)According to declassified Pentagon reports released by the U.S. Department of State, Iran was directly responsible for the deaths of at least 603 U.S. service members in Iraq between 2003 and 2011.

Assassinations in Europe (1980s–1990s): Dozens of Iranian dissidents were assassinated across Europe, including the 1992 Mykonos restaurant killings in Berlin, which a German court linked to Iran’s top leadership.

Recent Direct Attacks & Plots
1.
Failed Plot in Paris (2018): An Iranian diplomat, Assadollah Assadi, was sentenced to 20 years in prison for supplying explosives for a mass casualty attack targeting a political meeting.
2.
Drone & Rocket Attacks (2022–2024): Direct IRGC actions include a 2022 rocket attack in Iraqi Kurdistan and a 2023 drone strike in Syria that killed U.S. contractors.

Plot Against U.S. Officials (2024): An Iranian national and IRGC asset was charged with plotting to assassinate President Donald Trump and other U.S. officials

Statistical Overview of Recent ActivityGlobal Totals:
Between 2020 and 2024, there were 67 documented Iranian terrorist operations, including 17 attempted assassinations.

European Focus: Since 2021, over 50 plots have been identified in Europe alone, with the UK's MI5 reporting 20 disrupted plots in 2025.


I have not included Iran funding, arming and directing the war against Israel through Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Hezbolla. Oct 7 was supposed to be given the final fo ahead by Iran,Hamas jumped the gun, betrayed Iran alarmed by the Abraham Accords where it's long time supporters were moving to recognize Israel.

Iran has no leverage. They went into Islamabad thinking Americans will fold .
_With blockade , no ship to pay them $2 million At peak 140 ships transited the straits of Hormuz daily, Iran was looking at $280 million a day ,$100 billion a year in ransom alone.
_China buys 90% of Iranian oil at a discounted price. They will have to source elsewhere at international market prices.
_Saudi Arabia pipeline is now operating at full capacity 7 mbpd bypassing the Straits.Still enough oil for them to maintain their royal castles .
_Iran was hoping Chinese manpads would be a game changer.50% tariffs slapped on China if they supply Iran with weapons. China sells $450 B of goods to America.
_Iran has held a high level meeting with America. Noone will accuse America of not doing everything to stop the war.it's now on record.
_UAE money transfers ,the lifeline of Iran evading economic sanctions are now shut down.
_ Iran speaker and foreign affairs minister are now on target. IDF had the Speakers location a few weeks ago and were ready to blow him up , Pakistani requested IDF to let the Speaker live for negotiations to take place
_ Iran refused to hand over the 440 kg of HEU. If they only wanted uranium fuel America and allies were willing to supply them free of charge. Iran wants it's centrifuges spinning

Iran regime comes off devoid of reality and dimwitted. Their last options are mining the sea ,drones and ballistic missiles.
When China feels the pinch of buying cheap oil they will prevail upon Iran to reopen the straits.
