Trump rages at "son of a bitch" Obama after Iran deal leaks

Trump insults Obama in desperate attempt to defend his Iran Deal
The president put on a big show of bluster and bravado as the terms of the agreement became public, needlessly trashing President Obama in a show of clear insecurity. “Nobody could have made this deal. I mean the JCPOA done by Obama. He handed him a billion seven in cash… 1.7 billion dollars in cash, green cash from banks into a Boeing 757 and flew it into Iran.“ The Iranians laughed at Obama and they said, ‘He is a stupid son of a bitch.’”

After reviewing the leaked terms of the deal, it’s easy to see why Trump is desperately posturing: it’s a total Iranian victory. They’ve won an end to the US blockade, a $300 billion reconstruction fund, and an end to the crippling sanctions that have been crushing the Iranian middle class for so many years. In exchange, they will re-open the Strait of Hormuz and promised to never pursue a nuclear weapon, which is what they were already doing under the terms of Pres. Obama’s Iran deal.

Iran emerges from this war in a much better position than it was previously, with Trump and Netanyahu both left humiliated. It’s almost like there was a reason no other president was ever stupid enough to try to take on Iran like this.

VIDEO OF THE DAY: Trump dealt new reflecting pool disaster
The ridiculous saga of Trump’s disastrous Reflecting Pool renovations and the proliferation of algae that it immediately created reached new heights this week, as workers were deployed to literally pour bottle of bleach into it in a desperate effort to beat back the growth…resulting in what could only be labeled a skidmark being left in the pool when seen from up high. Symbolism must have been spending time in the weight room, because metaphors don’t get more heavy-handed than this.

Our oceans put into huge danger from Trump’s corporate cronies
World Ocean Day: Our oceans cover more than 70% of the planet, yet only about 10% of them are currently protected. That means most of our oceans remain at risk from horrible threats such as overfishing, bottom trawling, and deep sea oil drilling — and thanks to Trump’s regulation rollbacks for his billionaire backers, the danger is growing by the day. Science tells us that we must protect 30% of the ocean by 2030 to help stop the overexploitation of marine life, combat the worst effects of the climate crisis, and ensure an equitable and healthy future for the next generations. This month, we celebrated World Ocean Day. Now, the oceans need our help. Will you add your name to demand world leaders protect our oceans?

Secret Service enraged at FBI Director Kash Patel after premature announcement about UFC event terror plot: report
Keystone Kash is at it again, folks. Once again, Patel has run to social media to brag about having something vaguely resembling his job before law enforcement was ready, infuriating the Secret Service. Matt Quinn, deputy director for the Secret Service, appeared to comment on the furor Tuesday. “I’ll tell you a phrase I learned early in my career in the New York field office and that’s ‘Don’t choke on your own smoke,’” he said at a press conference. Five white men were arrested for allegedly plotting to attack the UFC fight with drones and drive people towards a sniper team to “jump-start a revolution.” The cherry on the cake? Once again, Kash didn’t even do anything. One of the men’s mother called the cops because her son had been purchasing weapons and getting involved with a “ultra-religious and anti-government” group on the internet. Social media posts indicate the perp was a conservative neo-Nazi who praised Hitler and wanted to target politicians who took money from AIPAC.

Trump puts Jay Clayton’s nomination for intel chief on hold
In yet another longshot attempt to bully the Senate into passing his election-stealing “SAVE Act,” which still does not have the votes to pass, Trump has announced he will be putting his new nomination for Director of National Intelligence and leaving the unqualified moron Bill Pulte in the position.

To further complicate the matter is the failure of the Senate to reauthorize the domestic surveillance FISA program and Trump’s desire to see his personal lawyer Jamie McDonald installed as the top federal prosecutor in Manhattan, presumably so that he can rubber-stamp future crimes committed by Trump and his family.

“Therefore, to add a slight bit of intrigue but, for the Good of the Nation, and the People of our Country, I will not approve FISA without THE SAVE AMERICA ACT going along with it. Not complicated, actually, the Republicans fell into a trap. Regarding the approval of our Great Patriot, Jay Clayton, we are cancelling the Senate Hearing RE: DNI today, and will not be going forward until Jamie McDonald is approved to be U.S. Attorney.” As long as Democrats hold firm, Trump will likely end up getting nothing he wants, which sounds like music to our ears.

Mississippi police officer shoots and kills 1-year-old child in response to shoplifting call
A one-year-old baby was shot and killed by a police officer after the mother was accused of stealing a box of DIAPERS. The police acknowledged they saw the mother enter the car with the child, and claimed that the car “drove in the direction of the officers,” prompting them to open fire. They claim that an officer was almost struck, but we know that the police lie about this kind of stuff all the time. We cannot live in a society where a child’s life is worth less than the miniscule profits lost from a box of diapers.

Trump faces Supreme Court showdown as major rulings loom
Over the next two weeks, we will find out if the Constitution actually matters to the Supreme Court or if they’re going to throw the most basic founding tenet of this nation – birthright citizenship – right in the trash to suit Trump and Stephen Miller’s racist crusade against nonwhites. We aren’t holding our breath.

The White House press corps could learn a thing or two from the ladies on the View.
