Hi RLR:

Some folks prefer the written word, others the spoken.

My preference is reading since I don't watch TV or films anymore.

Our greatest POTUS, A. Lincoln, drove people around him crazy when he was a lawyer and congressman.

He would read an article, portions or all of it out loud, disturbing his colleagues.

When finally asked why he reads articles aloud like a child, A. Lincoln replied:

"When I read something and hear myself saying the words, I learn the subject from two senses and I remember the issue better." [sic]

And thanks for asking, RLR.

Dark as the inside of a wrestler's unitard. He knows.

Now I must burn out my mind's eye and nose.

What a terrific family.

Who wouldn't want the Obamas as neighbors?

**** American Consumers Will Enjoy Iranian Petroleum Products ****

"The US Treasury Department has authorized the production, delivery, and sale of Iranian oil for 60 days.
Good-for-nothing oligarch US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent bleated the authorization comes after "productive talks" between Tehran and Washington in Switzerland. The authorization allows the import of Iranian oil and refined products into the US."

~snip~

So, will AIPAC and their supporters fill their tanks with gas made from Iranian oil?

I never read this quote from JFK who inherited the "Atoms for Peace" program from the previous administration.

And JFK died on 22 Nov 1963.

Russia and the UN are helping the Iranian people:

@3 I missed that skit but I'm sure the SNL crew got some much needed laughs at that awful time.

Some right wing Americans seem to think that because Canada is socialist and have strict privacy laws to protect people from unwarranted invasion, that their security services are inadequate. After 9/11 came a wave of fear that jihadists will walk across the border from Canada into the US since our international frontier was the least protected border in the world.

These folks would beg to differ:

This is the old school antisemitism, what used to be propagated by intolerant Catholics decades ago.

"Christ killers!"

Ex-PM Ehud Olmert writes that Israel is not purposefully committing genocide in Gaza, but admits that some IDF actions "can only be described as war crimes."

~snip~

While the former PM acknowledges that Israel is conducting ethnic cleansing in the West Bank where 1,000 Arabs have been killed since 7 Oct 2023, proving him wrong was the IDF in Gaza.

This weekend the serial killers of the Middle East butchered ten defenseless victims, including an Al-Jazeera journalist. Two sisters, Zeina Al-Safadi (4) and Lana Al-Safadi (14), were killed along with their father in a murderous IDF strike on Gaza City and their mother is fighting for her life in critical condition.

The death toll in Gaza at the hands of the US-armed and American taxpayer funded Israeli Death Forces is now at least 73,054 and 173,357 injured or maimed. Mr Olmert should take the time to read the UN reports detailing Israel's genocidal campaign in Gaza or the ICC indictment against the repulsive Benjamin Netanyahu.

"Iranian terrorists sneaking into the US from Canada? Under my nose? Let's find'em, Yukon King!"

Islamophobic hate-monger Markwayne Mullet's nomination to be Secretary of DHS was advanced out of committee by none other AIPAC darling US Senator John Fetterman (D-Israel). During a House committee meeting on funding earlier this month, Rep. Al Green (D-TX) rightfully called S/DHS Markwayne Mullin a "racist," then repeatedly ordered the obnoxious white supremacist bully to "shut up."

*** Dummkopf Trumpf Blusters on Faux TV He'll Take Over Iran if the Strait of Hormuz is Closed ***

"The Dotard-in-Chief apparently warned Iranian officials directly that "you close [the Strait of Hormuz] and you won't have a country."

The unindicted pedophile sniveled: "You won't even make it back to your f***** country. We'll take over the rest of the country."

The threat to occupy Iran as a whole is a new step for the mentally unfit geriatric president who has been seeking a way out of the war he illegally began on Israel's behalf which has been bankrupting the US economy."

Their rate was $5,000 a month, when the COBRA rate was ~$500/mo.

That's $60,000 per year for health insurance.

In 2014, the US GDP per capita was $55,185.92 in nominal terms.

Hi RLR:

I rarely watch videos and I don't watch TV so I'll have to read about these alleged IDF war crimes.

I'm sure the 6 - 18 Sep 1982 Sabra and Shatila massacre is discussed.

Also I trust the video isn't an antisemitic smear because there are plenty of Jews in NYC and Israel who are against ethnic cleansing, trying to stand up to the monstrous Benjamin Netanyahu and his modern-day cabinet of SS wannabes and uniformed ragtag army of US-funded sequence killers, like this notorious Russian psychopath.

Who is Trumpf going to double-cross?
America.

BTW: I trust Red Light Robot, Clownshack, et al enjoyed my OP discussing Obscura Americana and Pride Month.

"I work my fingers to the bone for you people and this is the thanks I get!"

@5 Dummkopf Trumpf will double-cross an ingrateful Israel, a net recipient of American largesse since 1948, and whose unconstitutional war US forces are fighting on its behalf is bankrupting the US treasury.

Russia isn't bankrupting the US treasury, Israel is, and midterm elections are scheduled for Tuesday 3 Nov 2026.

The morbidly-obese draft-dodging geriatric pedophile doesn't need AIPAC financial support anymore since he's a waddling lameduck unable to run for POTUS again.

Moreover, Vladimir Putin is Dummkopf Trumpf's KGB handler and billions of dollars of US funds to Iran helps the Kremlin war effort against Ukraine.

Lastly, the Trumpf Crime Family (TCF) can make more money with the wealthy Gulf states and Russia than with Israel after the GOP has been swept from power on 20 Jan 2029.

How many Trumpf Towers can the TCF build in Jerusalem?
