Tulsi Gabbard is a piece of complete shit. News at 11.
Press [x] for doubt.
"We’re sorry, your [x] has been disabled due to unapproved usage.
Press any key to agree with the regime…"
I’ve heard this before. At least a dozen times over 10 years
any moment now
"The number is
40 percentwithin weeks. Do not contradict the president.”These ghouls can’t be trusted with reality.
Sounds like Congress needs to ask her why she lied to them in the first place. Alas, they will not, because she is already playing the “Fake News” card.
I think a lot of people are going to be surprised…
Personally, I don’t know why, because it’s obvious Russia needs Iran for Ukraine.
But Putin isn’t going to let trump attack Iran.
And it’s already causing the people Putin makes support trump, start going against him.
I don’t want to link an actual tucker Carlson video, so here’s some people talking about his interview with Rafael Cruz:
https://youtu.be/yQEd-ECAwDU?t=1140
It tucker is breaking from trump over this, a lot more rightwing media is going to as well
Russia needs Iran for Ukraine
Oh, well, if this somehow hurts a few Russian Oligarchs then I guess incinerating 90M Persians is perfectly fine.
The fuck?
Does no one understand satire here?
Why she lied? because she opened her mouth
How I Edged Myself For 20 Years: A U.S. Lawmakers Heroic Effort To Convince Themselves Everyday That Iran Is Two Weeks Away From A Nuke
“This memoir is beautiful, it shows a secular side to fanatical devotion you don’t often see.”
Coincidentally that’s the same timeline trump has for any major policy implementation
No that is two weeks
Edit wait, I am not sure who is trolling who anymore, you trolling me, me trolling you, you trolling Trump, Trump trolling me, us trolling Trump?
hahaha I genuinely lost the plot on that being the punchline thank you for punching it for me
Keep trolling trolling trolling trolling
2 weeks fits the Fortnight Fuhrer’s agenda most perfectly
I doubt countries are sharing intel with the US given how Trump and his minions handle classified information.
So she probably wouldn’t know whether or not Iran was building nukes.
Iran is a ally of Russia, so if she did have information on Iran building nukes Putin probably wouldn’t let her say. Trump probably overruled that because he saw Israel was winning and he wanted to take credit for the win.
What a shitshow the US has become.
Desperate for her job I see.
‘Could’ vs ‘are’.
They may not have been, but they could if they wanted to, supposedly.
Now, if they didnt before, they certainly have the motivation and arguably the justification.
I certainly wouldn’t blame them for seeking out nuclear weapons now.
There is no reason to be weeks away from an atomic bomb unless you’re interested in building a bomb. Tulsi was wrong about the timeline, but they were/are doing all the things a country interested in building a bomb would do.
Well, maybe if foreign countries would leave them the fuck alone to do things like control and develop their own infrastructure and natural resources; they wouldn’t require nuclear weapons just to get some peace and quiet.
The last couple decades has proven that’s the only deterrent that actually works.
So were they going for nukes or not? Because your first comment seemed to claim they weren’t interested in nukes, but now you seem to claim they were justified in going for nukes this whole time.
(For the audience, Iran has been interested in nukes since at least the 90s, but has been prevented from getting one by lots of outside actors.)
Yes, they have been seeking nukes since at lease the 90s, probably earlier, as around the 70s America on behalf of Britain orchestrated a coup and dismantled the countries progress, all so Britain could continue fucking Iran out of its oil and the profit they need to develop.
As far as the present goes;
I don’t know whether they were going for nukes specifically, or instead were developing civilian energy projects that produce/use the same if not very similar products; and that stockpile enabled them to pursue both.
Honestly I didn’t care. While I generally don’t think ANYONE should have nukes, the US and Russia keep proving over and over again that that is the only deterrent you can actually rely on; so I can totally understand various nations drive to ensure they actually get some peace. If Iran feels they want/need nukes to keep themselves safe; well power to em, unfortunately they are correct.
Leave them the fuck alone. Stop providing them with more and more reason to fucking despise the west and it’s allies; continually proving they HAVE to fight back to continue to exist. Continuing to attack isn’t turning them away from nukes, it’s hardening their resolve and proving further why nukes are necessary. Why do you think they felt it necessary to build a facility 200m under a damn mountain??
Afraid they’re going to use their nukes offensively? Then stop giving them reasons to. Actually show some progress towards world peace instead of of just bombing everyone that has a slightly different world view.
“Death to America” does not constitute a slightly different world view. They are perfectly reasonable in their pursuit of nukes, and we’re perfectly reasonable in stopping them. When someone repeatedly says “we want to drop a nuke on people” you believe them and do what it takes to stop them.
Why are they saying ‘death to America’?
Because America won’t leave them alone. America started this shit, and continues to retaliate over and over for it’s own fuck ups comming back to bite it.
Obviously Iran is going to hate them and say things like ‘Death to America’ when America just wont stop giving them reasons to.
Maybe if America can demonstrate proper restraint and just leave the country to it’s own afairs, truly show themselves to NOT be an enemy of Iran, perhaps even an ally given sufficient time to heal; Iran will no longer feel the need to defend themselves against an immanent threat, whether real or perceived.
Bombing them sends the opposite message.
Did you know Iran is the country that supports Hamas, Hezbollah, the Hotuthis and a bunch of other terrorist organizations? Did you know Iran has made many official statements about wiping Israel off the map?
Strange way to act if you want to be left alone.
Wouldn’t you hold a grudge after having your rapid progress towards technological and ideological growth completely derailed by a coup orchestrated by a foreign power that plunged your country into decades of chaotic religious fanaticism which suppresses freedom/human rights to this day?
Especially when that foreign power continues to threaten your existence and expand into territory surrounding you?
Nope, because holding grudges over past humiliations is a fascist thing.
It’s remarkable how fast she changed her story to the one Trump wanted to hear.
question who is the smartest invertebrate?
octopi, or conservatives?
Octopi can solve puzzles, but conservatives can imitate human words, both spineless.
Trick question, it’s the centrist democrats. By preying on leftists and wearing their skin as camouflage, they get to court votes from the left while still growing fat on milk from their billionaire hosts. The conservatives are a very close second, though.
they are as useless as a chiropractor in DC
Fusion energy is always 10 years away
Iran is always 2 weeks away from nukes
30 years from now the first humans might live on Mars. If not, read this again.
Fusion energy is always 10 years away
I mean, we’re closer to commercial fusion than Iran is to nuclear weapons, because Virginia is actually building a fusion power plant while Iran has never had a program to enrich uranium to weapon’s grade.
Depends what you mean by fusion energy, but fairly recently ignition has been achieved and breakeven surpassed.
In December 2022, the National Ignition Facility, or NIF, an inertial confinement facility, reached Q = 1.54 with a 3.15 MJ output from a 2.05 MJ laser heating. NIF achieved ignition seven times. The highest gain as of 2025 of Q = 4.13 yielded 8.6 MJ from 2.08 MJ of laser energy.
While that quote alone, and the NIF’s results are very impressive and promising…
The beginning of that wiki page says you actually have to hit more like a Q of 5 before you get something that can power its own heat managment and other operating systems as well, to stand a chance at being sustainable.
The other big, missing piece of context is:
The NIF facility’s impressive results come from shooting about 200 lasers at a tiny capsule, which heats it so fast it becomes a plasma and undergoes fusion, and then the energy released is captured.
But… this is not like a toroidal reactor, that, if it got high enough Q, could just keep running and producing energy in net.
This is more like firing an artillery canon that needs to be carefully and manually reloaded.
It is not a continuous, on going process… the position of the capsule must be perfectly aligned to where all the lasers convergently aim at, and its a burst, with a reload time.
That and the capsule (technically a ‘hohlraum’) itself is… making one is a massively intensive and complex process.
The actual fusion fuel part of the pellet has to be encased in a diamond, and then gold, and it has to be like nano scale perfect.
yhea, but a practical implementation is always some years away.
You’re leaning into this, so here’s a chart.
yhea, that’s what I’m talking about.
But your statement implies it’s some impossible feat, and not simply a lack of funding, and maybe it is impossible, but how would we know if we never properly fund it? Moreover, you associated it with a propaganda reference, and I’m not even sure what you’re getting at there.
just saying it was an example of one of those things that are always a free years in the future. like flying cars, which as a society, gave up on
woah
Her evidence was a photo of an alleged nuclear facility with an arrow and “nukular missiles” written on with black sharpie. She also noted the MS-13 lettering stamped on top of one of the buildings.
It was a real photo, Iran likes to write “Nukular missiles” in giant black letters next to their hospitals.
I did not know that. Thanks for educating me. I withdraw my objection to the evidence, although their connection to MS-13 was already damning for Iran.
I wonder if the American population will buy the same lies sold to them 20 years ago.
I just repeated this to a table of 6 and got nothing but blank stares.
5 of them genuinely thought we found WMDs Iraq/Afghanistan
One had no idea what I was talking about and thought the war was entirely about the world trade centers.
I am surrounded by morons.
I was talking to a guy and he said “who was that politician that used to wear a bunch of makeup?”.
“I’m not sure” I said
“The one with the eyeliner”
“Oh you mean J.d Vance? The vice president?”
“He’s the vice president?”
Physically had to stop myself from facepalming.
Right after he started talking about Greta Thunberg. He said “people that don’t know anything about politics shouldn’t get involved”.
I wish I could make this stuff up.
We elected Biden on mostly anti-Trump sentiment then forgot and elected Trump again 4 years later. I think 20 years is more than enough time.
Whatever shadow of a hope I had that the people of this country would not gobble up low-effort lies about Iran just had this comment appear from the shadows and shiv it in the fucking liver.
I’ll bet fewer people will fall for Trump’s lies than fell for GWB’s, but not because we learned from Iraq. This war is really unpopular with MAGA. It’s for the wrong reasons, but I don’t think most will flip to Trump on this one.
Democrats might be interesting to watch. They are mostly cucked to Israel, but they won’t want to pass on the opportunity to snipe at Trump.
I don’t think the majority of Americans bought the DMW bullshit back then either, but the war happened anyways because those in power wanted/let it happen. The people didn’t have a say in it.
I don’t know about a majority, but I lived through that as a young adult and I’d believe it if at least 51% of the US population bought the Iraq WMD crap. Colin Powell was a well respected military leader and political moderate and he cashed in all of his influence to sell the lies to Congress and the population.
Absolutely everything in Trumpworld takes “two weeks”
Bullshit, some things happen on day one!!! Like the ending of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
