Since you don’t have to prove you’re a citizen to vote in Blue States (so long as you register as a Democrat), no doubt absentee ballots are making their way to Iran so that country’s president and his cohorts can vote in upcoming elections. Reason? The man has mastered Demospeak — an Orwellian tongue that twists every absurdity into reality, such as men having babies, etc., etc. In an open letter to the American people, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian proclaims — in true Demofiend fashion — that the American war against Iran’s terrorism is not in this country’s best interest since it does not put “America First.” He writes: “The Iranian people harbour no enmity toward other nations, including the people of America, Europe, or neighbouring countries. Even in the face of repeated foreign interventions and pressures throughout their proud history, Iranians have consistently drawn a clear distinction between governments and the peoples they govern. This is a deeply rooted principle in Iranian culture and collective consciousness — not a temporary political stance.” He goes on to claim that his country has never threatened another country or its citizens: “Despite its historical and geographical advantages at various times, Iran has

Boots or no boots? That is the question, at least the question all the major media are asking — whether President Trump will order troops to accomplish a goal or two in Iran. The three most obvious options are to take over Kharg Island and cripple Iran’s economy, to invade the Iranian islands surrounding the Strait of Hormuz to open up its passageway, or to go underground and remove Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile, which is only a few steps away from becoming atomic bomb ready. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, upon returning from the G7 Summit, told reporters that everything the U.S. wants to accomplish in Iran can be done without boots on the ground. This, of course, begs the question of why we are sending so many combat-ready troops over there. The USS Tripoli just arrived with its complement of men and materiel. More troops are on the way. The date to watch is April 6, which Trump has set as a deadline for Iran to come to the negotiating table or for the U.S. to take out Iran’s energy grid. Trump has been pretty faithful to sticking to deadlines he sets, so this one could be crucial. Will

With U.S. troops on the way to the Middle East, President Trump’s choices post-April 6, the deadline he set yesterday for Iran to come to their senses on negotiations, appear to be — in addition to continuing the ongoing air strikes — taking control of Kharg Island, securing the Strait of Hormuz, and obliterating Iran’s electrical grid. The latter, of course, is what Trump is officially delaying with his 10-day negotiations window. Taking Kharg would cripple Iran’s economy, as that is where 90 percent of its oil shipments originate. Opening the Strait would entail taking control of the Iranian islands situated there. Including grids away, all three options could be exercised at the same time. As for talks with the U.S., which the president claims are “productive,” Iran counters that “Trump is negotiating with himself.” Of course, nothing Trump has done in office has ever been anything exxcept “productive” or “very good,” if you listen to Trump’s day-to-day assessments. “As per Iranian Government request, please let this statement serve to represent that I am pausing the period of Energy Plant destruction by 10 Days to Monday, April 6, 2026, at 8 P.M., Eastern Time,” the president wrote on social media.
