TACO Tuesday
Yesterday at 7:42am
 

United States President Donald Trump has been accused of another "TACO" (Trump Always Chickens Out) moment, backing down on a threat to "obliterate" Iran's power plants if it didn't open the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours.

After making the ultimatum at the weekend, the deadline was about to run out for Trump, with Iran showing no signs it would yield to the threat.

In fact, Tehran was ready to escalate the fight, firing back with a threat of its own to hit Israel's power plants and those that supply US bases in the Gulf.

It's what bullies do, Greggery, but do you know? DL could have fixed this one at the outset.

Fuck off, Bibi, he could have said. You're a war criminal. Your population's the size of Greece. We're not fighting your wars anymore. In fact, we're calling them off. From here on in, you stay in your own borders or we'll cut all aid.

It's what Karmala would have done, it's what any normal Republican would have done.

Easy-peasy, problem solved. Bibi would have faced his corruption charges, been put in jail, maybe even extradited to the Hague. That would have been the end of it, problem solved.

But no, DL promised Miriam Adelson the entire US military. In return for $270 mil, he sold the US, along with the entire global economy, off to Israel.

Bibi's cabinet - a bunch of far-right loons - are calling for Greater Israel: an expansion of Israel's borders from the Gulf of Suez to the river Tigris.

DL is Bibi's biggest asset. In Russia, he's Vlad's. He's already complaining about NATO, and my bet is he pulls out by the mid-terms.

If the US doesn't get a real prez quick, we'll see Vlad take Ukraine and the Baltic Sea, Xi take Taiwan and the Pacific, and Bibi start WWIII with Iran.

T.A.C.O? Sure. But in the process, he's smashed the entire global order.

WWIII has only just begun. Can you feel it?

CNN Calls War For Iran



...


U.S. — CNN announced a shift in its reporting of the US-Israel war with Iran on Monday, declaring the conflict resolved. In light of this major update, CNN officially called the war for Iran.

"We can now make it official: Iran has won the war," CNN anchor Sara Sidner reported. "With over 70% of battlefields reporting, we are officially calling this war for Iran. Iran has now defeated the U.S. in what is sure to be a major upset for geopolitics going forward."

According to sources, Iran had been decimated by joint American and Israeli attacks, which had taken out much of their capacity for ballistic missile strikes, air defense, and naval assets. Experts surmised that it was unlikely that Iran could launch a major offensive any time soon and that their economy had been shattered by ongoing sanctions and the destruction of much of its gas and oil infrastructure. However, CNN's analysts remained confident that the war would ultimately be won by Iran.

"The American dream is dead, and it's all thanks to Trump," said CNN anchor Anderson Cooper. "There was simply no chance of us ever standing up to the glorious might of the Iranian regime."

President Donald Trump called CNN's reporting on the war "fake news," arguing that they are even worse than Tucker Carlson.

At publishing time, CNN was forced to retract its statement after another Iranian supreme leader was eliminated.

Oh, look.

Another Babylon Bee fake news story from Frank.

With no link, as usual.

If that site ever went offline I suspect Frank would need to be put on suicide watch.

Not satire, old boy. In other news, DL just announced CNN had declared his approval rating to be 100%.

Yes, you joined the chorus here pretending he was just having a laugh. What a card, you said.

But he wasn't. CNN, you see, broadcast a graphic showing DL's approval rating with self-declared MAGA voters. Yes, amongst people like yourself, DL polled 100%.

CNN posted it, DL misread it, and announced it to the world.

Ever get the feeling you've been farmed?

And even that comes as a big surprise considering the intelligence (or lack thereof) of the MAGA crowd.

It's a wonder most of them can remember to breathe.

To quote Philip K. Dick


We're now at the point where Donald Trump can claim "productive negotiations" with Iran, delay strikes, and posture like a deal is imminent… while Iran flatly denies that any talks are even happening.

That's not strategy, that's either chaos or spin, and neither of those inspires confidence.

And yet here you are, still trying to defend it.

The desperation to run cover for him, even when he's caught out making claims that don't line up with reality, even when he's clearly trying to step back from escalation he himself created, is exactly what people mean when they talk about TDS, just not in the way you think.

Because blind loyalty that ignores contradictions, ignores evidence, and just reflexively defends whatever he says, isn't political analysis. It's tribalism.

At some point you have to decide whether you care about outcomes, or just about backing your team no matter how messy it gets.

You are the purest example of TDS on this forum, just not in the way you think. The projection is obvious. You throw around "TDS" as a get-out-of-jail-free card because it saves you from having to engage with substance. It lets you dodge evidence, dodge accountability, and pretend that pointing out inconsistencies is somehow the problem, rather than the inconsistencies themselves.

On some level, you know that. Otherwise you wouldn't need the label.

Because if your position actually held up, you'd defend it with facts, not slogans. Instead, it's just deflection layered over blind loyalty, and it shows.  Cool

Oh, the old boy hasn't drawn breath since 2007, poor thing.

He passed the day he realised endless wars weren't going to work.

Darn the Muselman, he shrieked. So ungrateful!

He clutched his pearls, the string broke, and just like that, he left his mortal coil.

His soul is reported to be somewhere over Iraq, seething.
