□ [“Cuban Dictator Díaz-Canel Begins Negotiations with the United States"]

They must be scared.  Cuba has been totally dependent on Venezuela for decades and now they're getting nothing.  Can't just suddenly get help from China, Russia or Iran, not sure what other allies they'd really have.  But Díaz-Canel even announced this on tv so the whole nation sees that they're giving in to Trump.

How is the left supposed to react to this?  Cuba has been their idol for generations but think they're able to deal with Trump, what does Cuba know that Democrats don't?  They're trying to do something about the War Powers Act to stop Trump from attacking Cuba, don't they see what's going on?  Well, no, Trump Derangement Syndrome is a real thing.

Not just Venezuela, it's been pointed out that Cuba's funding ended when USAID did.  That's something Trump has been able to push throughout the world although it may be a long time before we really see the effects.  US money was being funneled everywhere to support our enemies in countless ways.  By nature Cuba was a long-time stronghold for leftists and it looks like it's ready to fall.  I suspect the dictators are just trying to negotiate their survival.  Since Cuba has no gas anymore, they may be in a rush.

□ [“'Watch What Happens to These Deranged Scumbags Today!' – Trump Warns Iran"]

Apparently the bombing has been getting even bigger and today was the biggest bombing ever.  Something like that.  I do support this but we can't just have day-after-day of bombing, that's not going to work.  We've taken out the main leaders but the lower ranks will stay hidden.  If all we're doing is bombing, they can try to wait it out.  I get that there are other things going on but there needs to be progress.

Trump also says the new Ayatollah is "I think he's damaged, but I think he's probably alive in some form."  To me that comes off similar to George W. Bush having little interest in where bin Laden is these days.  I get the point, there's a much bigger battle to face and in the Muslim world, the defeat from the infidel is even more humiliating.  But bin Laden was and the Ayatollah is still the primary target so it doesn't look good to just shrug them off like that.

Apparently Iranians are helping guide our drone attacks.  That's good but they need to be more involved.  We can't just maintain air attacks and we don't want boots on the ground so the Iranians need to finish the job.  They deserve it and we're still there to support them, get rid of these tyrants.

We're also seeing gas prices shoot up.  That suck, especially after the last year of low prices.  Trump is trying to do something about that too, releasing 172 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.  Not sure that's a good idea, neither is discussions about removing some sanctions, at least temporarily.  Russian ships that are already at sea have those taken down.  Meanwhile France and Italy have made a deal with Iran to get their ships through.

And just a note, France has another problem.  One of their soldiers in Iraq died from an Iranian drone strike.  When did France get soldiers?  Why am I always the last one to hear about these things?  And wtf are they doing in Iraq?  We are not remotely being told the whole story about this war.

□ [“Hungary To Declassify National Security Report Proving Globalist Opposition to Viktor Orbán Is Illegally Funded by Ukraine"]

I'm less interested in what they're doing against Hungary itself than about what else they've used this funding for.  That's one of the mazes that needs to be taken down, how the money is passed through NGOs to foreign accounts, cybercurrency, all the ways the elites control.  And then what are they doing with that money?

Americans see this with DOGE, with the cuts to USAID and the exposure of Somali daycare centers in Minnesota.  That's clearly just a small piece of what's going on.  Whatever globalists are named in Hungary's report will probably be found listed elsewhere, imposing their will on the rest of us.  I'm guessing that most of these people, at least the ones who matter, are in the EU and this was the real reason for this war.  They've been trying to infest Russia too so Russia responded the normal way, invasion.

Doesn't sound like there's any peace talks going on so Zelensky doesn't have anything to do.  He's not worried about being re-elected and has consistently lost the war since... well since it started.  But he has nothing to add to any part of this situation.  Trump's even denying Ukrainians being sent in to help against Iranian drones.  That seems odd, the Ukrainians would have experience with Iran's ally, I'd assume they can bring something to the table.  I suspect that it's more about keeping them from getting useful information from us, or Iran for that matter.  They are not to be trusted.

It's going to get hectic.  Security companies are going to need a lot of employees but the guy going into the Texas school claimed to be security.  Turns out he's unemployed but that's not a mistake security can afford to get wrong very often.  This is where it's dangerous because you could guard a million possible targets and there's still ten million others.

We don't really know how the Muslim world is responding to this and couldn't really trust any response they'd have.  It comes down to the individuals.  I probably have a higher opinion of Islam than most people but it's also clear that sanity is optional for the most determined ones.  How much of the Muslim world are willing to stop these attacks before they happen?  We really don't know if there are any of them and that's going to be a huge problem to face.

25 years after 9/11, I still wonder if the people in charge really did make a long-term plan for this conflict.  Don't know which side they were on but at least on our side, it's basically been impossible to perceive the opponents as a unified force, making them difficult to fight.  With Iran funding Muslim terrorists around the world, now that we've finally taken the mullahs out, we have an opportunity to actually work out who's on which side.  Both sides have a lot of military-aged men who only know a post-9/11 world.
