REMINDER: DEAL IS NOT A DEAL. Officials are planning for a virtual signing of the memorandum of understanding (MOU) as a precursor to negotiations. Meeting in person presented logistical challenges and more potential for the process to get derailed. The MOU would kick off a new 60-day period of negotiations on how to implement the framework and resolve remaining sticking points, a US official said Friday.

Every Trump foreign policy failure from Iran to Ukraine traces back to one source: JD Vance. His isolationist cabal is dragging America into a dangerous abyss of retreat and appeasement. Trump must stop listening to him now. The world needs America. (@realDonaldTrump)

🚨🇮🇷#BREAKING | NEWS ⚠️ A joint 🇺🇸U.S - 🇮🇱Israel airstrike in Tehran as they have struck and completely destroyed the IRGC Command Center tonight in Iran. They were supposed to sign a Peace deal tomorrow? Maybe tying up some loose ends..

🇺🇸 🇮🇱 President Trump has promised Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the issue of nuclear, missiles, and Hezbollah will have be dealt with in the agreement, otherwise no deal would be reached. It’s important to note that it is highly unlikely that IRGC agrees to this deal.

I lose track. How many houses do you own? You could do more. @BasedComic

This dude thinks the Jewish messiah is an extraterrestrial who will come from outer space lol. Read up on him and his eschatological nonsense. If that's what "science based" looks like to this administration then we're cooked.

A Deal to agree to negotiate is about the most dishonest thing I've heard yet.

Pakistan PM is lying, a MoU isn’t even peace deal, just an intent to talk about one for another 2 months and Iran says they’re not even signing that.

🚨🇮🇷🇺🇲 BIG | The Iranian news agency Fars reports that Trump is insisting on signing a memorandum of understanding with Iran on Sunday, despite Iranian speakers saying that the text has not yet been finalized and no signing is planned for that day. The agency noted that Sunday falls on June 14, Trump's birthday, and suggests that he may be trying to turn the signing into a symbolic media event. According to the publication, it is unlikely that Iranian speakers will allow the American president to turn the process into a political show.

MY REVIEW OF DISCLOSURE DAY -- A DIRECT ASSAULT ON CHRISTIANITY (AND SPIELBERG'S WORST MOVIE) Because of how intentional I believe this film is in attempting to deconstruct Christianity, and because I want to warn people about not seeing it, this will be a very spoiler-filled review. You have been warned before proceeding further. This review will be done in two acts: 1) the worldview of the film, 2) the quality of the film. Neither will be positive. Disclosure Day's Worldview This is a rather blatant attempt to evangelize into a new religion. In many respects, the transition Steven Spielberg makes from his 1970s classic Close Encounters of the Third Kind, to now Disclosure Day, is very similar to what you see from a lot of the prominent UFO/alien obsession proxies like Dr. Steven Greer. At first they start off in wonderment about what else is really out there in the cosmos and whether we're alone in the universe (or Close Encounters), but they always eventually end up at the aliens are really our saviors to show fallible human beings the way to salvation (or Disclosure Day). If you only see people like Greer or Luis Elizondo on cable news networks, you'd think they're just scientifically inquisitive and want "the truth to be told." But if you watch their documentaries, as I have, it becomes increasingly obvious they are really selling a religion. Greer is basically just a wannabe prophet of the non-human intelligence phenomena as deliverers at this point, and Elizondo is on his way there by angrily dismissing the possibility this is all just a demonic spiritual deception (as he did in last year's The Age of Disclosure documentary). Here are some examples of how this film head-on intends to deconstruct Christianity (in chronological scene order): --The main character's love interest, who is now his admitted fornication partner, is a former nun. She specifically tells him early in the film she left the convent behind because "I lost my belief that God is divine." Hold on to that language later, because it's going to put everything else I point out next in its proper context. --When the shadowy agency conducting the decades-long coverup attempts to use alien technology to subvert the former nun's consciousness and turn her into a traitor, she grabs her crucifix and tries to invoke its power to resist the alien tech -- to the point she essentially stigmatas herself. However, the crucifix is rendered powerless in the face of the superior alien technology and thus she is given over to it. --The entire story is unfolding under the backdrop of pending nuclear war and planetary annihilation (between the US and Russia, of course, because apparently it's still 1985). In other words, we are in the end of days and lost as a species unable to save ourselves. We need a salvation we cannot acquire on our own. --We learn the aliens specifically chose a male and a female to be the "vessels" at the vanguard of this next step of our evolution. Which the aliens are here to guide for us, of course. It is eventually revealed the male is given mathematic revelation (or logic) and the female empathy (or nurturing) -- with the female's gift depicted as superior in its intensity. Or a divine feminine. --The climax of the disclosure broadcast occurs when the largest of the aliens is brought in by several humans in what is basically a gestatorial chair, which he emerges from to pronounce blessings upon the new Adam and Eve with a priestly whisper in his native tongue of clicks and tones (I guess Latin would've been too on the nose). The whisper is translated for all of humanity into the final line of the film: "Listen." Some might say sort of like, "Let those with ears to hear let them hear." --Though the film makes it clear the climactic day of disclosure is being felt globally, the only religion wrestling with it is Christianity. At the convent we see several of the nuns desperately clinging to their Rosaries looking for guidance, while the Mother Superior lets out a wry smile in approval of the coming syncretism. No other religion is even depicted, let alone shown to have to grasp with the significance of all this. Why is that? All the potential answers to this question are bad. Though I'd love that to be the case, Christianity is not the only global religion on this planet. Furthermore, the only Christianity depicted in the movie is Catholicism. --Now, back to the smiling Mother Superior at the end of the movie, and the former nun saying she lost her belief that God is divine in its opening act. The movie says this at the same time it makes it clear humanity needs saving, and the former nun also makes the case that even though she doesn't believe in God anymore the world needs that belief to maintain any form of order. Enter the aliens, who check all the boxes of what is required. They are sinless, while we are not. They have knowledge kept secret, that we do not. They are the only ones who can share such revelation with us, we can't acquire it ourselves. And by embracing this singular truth mankind can be saved, because we can't save ourselves. If all that's not a religion, I don't know what is. If all that's not a direct attempt to redirect Christianity, I don't know what is. Marcion, Arius, and Pelagius were more subtle. Quality of Disclosure Day Itself Thankfully, this movie is also not very good. Had it been executed better, we might really be in trouble as a people here. It's the worst movie Spielberg has ever done. The film doesn't really have a plot, but is just one long chase scene of not believable things. Like we are supposed to believe a nerd who admits he was never in the field before this, is now able to suddenly drive cars at high speed through houses and evade the world's most effective private security firm that has successfully protected this secret for over 75 years. We are supposed to believe if you hide behind rocks just five feet from that same organization's operatives they won't look for you there, or hear you running away in the woods as you step on branches. In another scene the "good guys" use the alien's invisibility technology to escape, but for whatever reasons turn on the sirens of the firetruck they're in so now "the bad guys" know they're there. Finally, we are supposed to believe that same shadowy organization ejects and just angrily gives up at the end without a fight to permit disclosure day to happen, even though they could've just pulled out their guns and shot everybody there before the cameras went live. You make these kinds of continuity and believability errors when you're more about the message than the movie. I recognize it, because it's why Christian movies were so bad for so long. More concerned with checking ideological boxes and shoehorning in favored tropes over telling the best possible story. Spielberg made mistakes with this film he would've never made before as possibly the greatest director ever. And we see a lot of left-wing Hollywood making this mistake nowadays. The industry has lost patience with subverting us with good stories over time, and it's now just knocking on doors and putting their pitch right in your face like the evangelists they are. Consider it a blessing that America's greatest director cast his pearls unto swine by shrouding all this deconstruction and deception within a hot mess of a film -- otherwise we might've had a real birth of a dangerous cult on our hands. The Lord works in mysterious ways.

Khorasan newspaper, an official outlet close to Iran's Parliament Speaker and chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, openly published that a potential deal with the U.S. is not a settlement. They explicitly called it a “breathing space to rebuild offensive and defensive combat power and prepare for the final, full-scale battle”. This is the smoking gun. When they sign a document, they are not investing in peace; they are buying time to weaponize and prepare for a global catastrophe. The West is funding its own ultimate destruction.

🇮🇷 BREAKING: Islamic Republic of Iran say they will NOT sign the deal on Sunday, despite previous announcement by Pakistan.

I wonder why they need a contingency plan

Translation: there is no deal; there never was a deal; Iran is dictating the terms, which have never once been altered from the moment of their original submission. The US cannot assent to those terms. Therefore the war will likely continue after the US markets close today.

⚡️BREAKING Iran’s Foreign Minister on State TV explaining the upcoming the Deal: "The situation in the Strait of Hormuz and Iran’s frozen assets are all part of the upcoming deal Payment of fees are required to use the Strait of Hormuz As part of the deal and the ceasefire in Lebanon, Israel will withdraw from Lebanon If these and other obligations are not met, negotiations on a Final Deal will not take place"
