I laughed so hard when I read this I exited my body.
I can’t believe this is a new headline again now after he signed the surrender treaty.
“We demand that you accept our complete and total surrender!”
What a fucking clown show
Blowzo’s Circus is on the air!
Those tolls are gonna find their way into his pocket. It’s how he works…
He said once before before he liked the idea of a toll and would work out his cut. He just really doesnt want to lose even if that means robbing the people he “saved”
I know it’s getting old at this point to raise this point, but can you imagine the conservatives if Obama or Biden or Clinton could be credibly accused of doing even 1/100th what this asshole is obviously doing?
They would have stroked out by now. They were having conniptions over feet on desk and tan suits and having ice cream cones, FFS.
If Obama, Biden or Clinton had this going for a week, the reds would be calling for their impeachment and all the right-wing russian-back propaganda outlets would be running it 24/7.
Instead we have a dementia-ridden convicted felon pants-shitting child molester openly embezzling money proving on a daily basis how corrupt and incompetent he is embarrassing this country on a world stage.
Pretty hard to charge a toll when Iran controls the strait and shuts it down you dipshit
What a complete dumbfuck. We didn’t have any tolls a few months ago. Now we are talking about Iran and Oman and the United States exacting tolls?
The Shart of the Deal.
This is like W’s Katrina multiplied by W’s Iraq dumbassery to the power of the 2008 economic crash. You’d have to be a complete dumbass to support this asshat.
And the idiots that are wishcasting the stock market into the stratosphere and gas prices lower are total fools to listen to this bumbling old moron when he acts like it’s all going to snap back to normal in one day, based on signing a MOU.
Charge ships trying to pass through,
NOT charging Netanyahu’s “Israel” who keeps bombing the ceasefires/agreements out of existence, right??
Clownshow is exactly right.

The fact that the “We the People” of the United States just sit back and shrug as this idiot fucks one thing after another up is fucking nuts.
I’ve tried to embrace existentialism in most parts of my life, but when it comes to American politics, the very best I can do is absurdism. The whole system of capitalist republican oligarchy has proven to be joke.
Go tell the families of Renee and Alex that all Americans “sit back and shrug”.
The ignorance of people saying things like this is astonishing. You all need to be more embarrassed both by how wrong this is, and you’re lack of entry-level understanding of what’s going on right now in the United States.
Sadly, 1/3 of the country continues to actually support the current administration and at least another 1/3 seems to be completely uncaring and ambivalent about the fact that we are allowing a literal detained lunatic to sleepwalk us into fasism, corporate oligarchy, economic uncertainty, war and global chaos.
There are people out there protesting and doing the right thing, but there are still far too many people who don’t seem to give a damn and nobody in any position of even remote power seems willing to do anything meaningful to correct course.
So we wait for the next election in November to see what, if anything, happens next. But we’re still being ruled by the unchecked whims of a madman.
And the other 1/3’s best solution is to elect the blue team who did little to nothing to avoid this very obvious outcome. Even helped here and there. Though the rigged popularity contest doesn’t offer alternatives.
And the people protesting are doing it American style, where it looks more like a weekend festival at the park. This is, of course, how they were taught to do it. The people in charge can tune that out entirely.
Face it, we need changes bigger than most people understand and harder than practically anyone wants to do to alter course now. Maybe, big maybe, when Trump dies the MAGA spell will be broken on the most moronic 1/3 and they’ll fragment back to religious infighting, cousin banging, wrastlin’, and whatever else was keeping them disjoined before. Otherwise, outlook grim.
You’re not wrong. We need to get together as a united front and… well, there’s the problem. Look at any protest or effort, big or small, and you’ll see how it’s snuffed out in various ways because the system is designed to prevent that, and to keep people from being focused on a single cause together. It’s our fault. No doubt there. But it’s also a situation that prevents anything from changing without full solidarity.
Note: this is not an excuse. It’s a reason.
All the not-Republicans need to pick a leader. Now not later.
The whole world is saying fuck it, we buy electric cars.
Its like have in a trade war over horses in 1950
The whole world is buying cheap Chinese electric cars.
American Automakers will be needing another bailout in less than 5 years.
They’ll spend the bailout money lobbying against any incentives or regulations that try to force them to become competitive, too. So they’ll need another bailout next decade.
It’s time to let American auto makers go bankrupt. If they can’t make what people want at an affordable price, it needs to be a goodbye from us.
“Ha! Face to foot style, how’d ya like it?”
“I’m sure, on some planet, your style is impressive, but your weak link is: this is Earth.”
Friggin love Kung Pow.
Bruh, bluffs aren’t going to work anymore. Trump indirectly proved to Iran that we truly don’t have a back up plan for when the strait is closed during the American-Iranian War. All this is going to do is make the current deal we have even worse
I’d 100% agree but I can’t quite tell how it could be worse. USA didn’t get anything important
Why limit it to the strait? Let’s just embrace piracy and extortion worldwide! If were going to be self-defeating pariah dumbfucks, let’s get some return on all that military spending. Why the hell not? On a serious note, why would Iran care that much if every ship pays multiple tolls as long as they get their share and keep all their power?
Murica handing out etters of marque was not something I could believe 2 years ago but now the bar can just go lower.
Iran charging a toll surprised the idiots running America. Now they want their extortion money too.
Why can’t everyone involved charge a toll? One for entry a different for exit. Put up some big signs with QR codes so they can use venmo or cash app… /s
Trump keeps yapping about how Iran better comply with his demands, or he’ll go back to bombing them, so they’re showing the world that they’re in control, not him.
If I were them, I’d make him twist for a full month before making ANY new contact, and if he runs his mouth again, I’d wait ANOTHER month. Maybe in a year or two he’ll learn to shut the fuck up.
I want Somalia to enter this chat to see that they will do
