I have a bad gut feeling!

Trump and his goons are planning something big with Iran! The White House has canceled all their plans for the weekend and returned to Washington. They have a bad week and need a distraction!

All bets are off!

He seems to be going all-in on Barron. Of course, the girls were never a consideration.

I’ve seen lots of posts on Twitter. Everyone was called back in and Trump changed plans. Kegsbreath was dispatched to West Point to give the Commencement Address. I thought Trump was going to do that.

I have seen that an Iranian was arrested who supposedly was a contract killer focused on Ivanka.

killed the family of Iran’s supreme leader. Undoubtedly there will be retaliation attempts on all of the Krasnovs.

A

n Agreement has been largely negotiated, subject to finalization between the United States of America, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the various other Countries,” Trump wrote on Truth Social late Saturday afternoon. “Final aspects and details of the Deal are currently being discussed, and will be announced shortly,” he added.

but no one has agreed upon it yet. Typical MAGAspeak.

Expect an all-out bombing campaign to start on Memorial Day, just so Trump can erect another statue of himself in memoriam of the people he will have killed.

To launch another unprovoked attack.

I can see Trump & his goons thinking it is.

Other than a full mobilization of the US military, nothing of any significance is happening. A Desert Storm level build up is what it would take to open the Strait and / or do actual regime change Iran at this point. We do not have enough forces or assets in theater to do much at this point. And no, we're not nuking anyone.
