Bad energy: Trump will be forced to end his reckless war very soon It is astonishing that Donald Trump has created an energy crisis that America is not set up to handle.

It is more than a little careless for Donald Trump to hurl the Middle East into chaos without first filling up the US strategic petroleum reserve. Stocks are near their lowest level in 40 years.

Erik Prince Recruits Ex-Spies to Help Infiltrate Liberal Groups (Published 2020)

Andrew,
Just because Platner is a former Blackwater Mercenary with a Nazi tattoo who joined liberal groups after Blackwater founder Erik Prince started recruiting right-wingers to infiltrate liberal groups doesn’t mean that he’s a Nazi.

I went to Elland Road and found a defiant, intimidating bear pit Leeds United’s gritty home stands apart from the Premier League’s sanitised norm – vote for the top flight’s best atmosphere at the bottom

In 1980, NBC interviewed a young Trump about the ongoing Iran hostage crisis. He did not hold back. “That this country sits back and allows a country such as Iran to hold our hostages, to my way of thinking, is a horror, and I don’t think they’d do it with other countries,” he said. When the interviewer asked if that meant “you’re advocating that we should have gone in there with troops,” Trump replied, “I absolutely feel that, yes,” adding that had America done so, “I think right now we’d be an oil-rich nation.” (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently said that he had dreamed of being able to “smite the terror regime” in Iran for 40 years; it turns out Trump had him beat.) In 1987, the Times reported that Trump declared in a New Hampshire speech that “the United States should attack Iran and seize some of its oil fields in retaliation for what he called Iran’s bullying of America.” In 1988, Trump told The Guardian that “I’d be harsh on Iran. They’ve been beating us psychologically, making us look a bunch of fools.”

I don't think many people realize that Trump has been talking about Iran like this since 1980: www.theatlantic.com/internationa...
