I was shocked at what hit today and yesterday. This is only part of it, but the shit hit the fan. And American diplomacy is toast. If Trump says he is pulling out of NATO, he WILL be impeached rapidly.
Here’s the reports:
Saudi Arabia’s Bin Salman has terminated the defense agreement with the US following insults from America and has entered into a defense pact with Europe without informing the US.
Qatar now wants all US troops out of its country saying the US failed to protect them and allowed much destruction.
China to UN: Israel must immediately withdraw from Lebanon. Lebanon must not become another Gaza.
Cuba: Russia just completely shattered the US naval blockade on Cuba. Putin sent a massive oil tanker right through America’s backyard and Trump did absolutely nothing.
NATO member Romania declares a state of crisis in the fuel sector
THE EU JUST ISSUED ENERGY LOCKDOWNS AND NOBODY IS CALLING IT WHAT IT IS The European Commission is urging Europeans to work from home, drive less, and fly less because of the Gulf conflict.
Without enough jet fuel, expect half of flights in Europe to be grounded long term.
EU Energy Commissioner Dan Jørgensen says this crisis won’t end even if the war ends tomorrow. This means the EU is permanently screwed. Not temporarily.
Absolute bombshell at the UN. Peacekeeping Chief confirms Israeli forces are killing and critically injuring UN peacekeepers in Lebanon.
Alex Jones, In A Heartfelt Message, Talks About The Way Forward Now That It’s Extremely Clear That President Trump Has A Serious Cognitive Problem Or Has Been Seriously Compromised…”Sadly, The Trump We All Knew & Loved No Longer Exists…”
Warren Buffett says he is waiting for a larger move to the downside, says March was nothing
CANADA TURNS ON ISRAEL PM Mark Carney calls Israel’s invasion of Lebanon an “illegal invasion” “We condemn it.”
Netanyahu admits that he started the war on Iran in order to transform Israel into a supernation We are working on transforming Israel into a supernation in the region and globally.
Gadaffi many years ago about Greater Israel. “Their plan is to remove Lebanon and Syria so that the borders of so-called Israel are with Turkey rather than with Arab countries. You will see this achieved, if not in our era, then in our children’s era… Syria will become 5 small states.”
Mexico says humanitarian help for Cuba must continue regardless of Trump’s threats.
PUTIN ON IRAN: “Iran fulfilled all of its obligations under the well-known nuclear deal. All of them. Then U.S. President Trump unilaterally decided to withdraw from the agreement, while the Europeans were saying, ‘Yes, it’s bad that the Americans have withdrawn, but you Iranians must comply with everything’ I apologize if this sounds a bit rude, but what the hell are the Iranians supposed to comply with?”
Megyn Kelly criticizes Trump on Iran: “Trump saying ‘just like the ballroom, we are way ahead of schedule.’ You are talking about American troops dying, putting their lives at risk. It’s not just like the ballroom. It’s not just a fun little excursion. We’ve already lost 13 service men and women. Another 25 injured over the weekend. That information has been largely censored. We don’t believe we know the full extent of the deaths.”
Alex Jones says Trump is done: “When your ankles swell up three times the size they were before, that means heart failure. And he does look sick. And he does babble and it sounds like the brain’s not doing too hot. So we just cut bait on Trump.”
South Korea’s President today: “The world is in turmoil over the energy crisis…the situation is so serious that it has even kept me up at night. The immediate problem is grave enough, but the outlook ahead seems even more unstable — the situation is worse than expected”
Holy shit, catastrophic morning for U.S.-Saudi relations:
→ MBS signed defense pact with Ukraine WITHOUT telling Washington → Rubio called to express “regret” — MBS listed American FAILURES → Crown Prince said Saudi Arabia will act in its OWN national interest → MBS was MORE diplomatic than Trump — didn’t respond to “kiss my ass” insult → U.S. defense monopoly in the Gulf — EFFECTIVELY OVER → European defense corridor through Ukraine — NOW OPEN → 70 years of alliance — ON PAUSE → American leverage in Riyadh — ZERO
Process that.
Trump told a man who controls 12% of the world’s oil supply to “kiss my ass.” That man responded by restructuring Middle Eastern security architecture in a single week.
The United States will remain part of NATO no matter what Trump & administration officials say, per Sens. Mitch McConnell & Chris Coons
Trump is giving a speech tonight. I never watch them live. This one I might.
