🚨1/ TOP BARRACK SLEIGHT OF HAND: Bypassing the Senate to Prevent Kurds from fixing Trump's disaster. Friday, State admitted Tom Barrack’s Syria mandate expired under 22 U.S.C. § 2651a(j)(3). Today, Trump "reappointed" him as a Presidential Envoy to Syria AND Iraq.

In 1973 I had left UMass and started studying acting in NYC at HB Studio. I had a job working for the Nicks selling seasons tickets in Penn station. I had to pretend to be Nicks fan or at least conceal that I was a Celtics fan. Truly happy for the folks in greatest city on earth.

What’s happening in Iran right now? The most hardline elements of the Paydari Front, including figures close to Saeed Jalili such as Hamid Rasaei, Mahmoud Nabavian, and Amir-Hossein Sabeti, are strongly opposed to the proposed deal with the US and view it as a betrayal of Iran’s interests. They argue that the negotiating team, particularly Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, has crossed Iran’s red lines and made excessive concessions, especially in the aftermath of the assassination of key political and military leaders. Several hardline figures have publicly demanded the resignation of members of the negotiating team, accusing them of surrendering strategic leverage in exchange for a weak deal. Among the more radical voices, some have gone even further, promoting conspiracy theories that the new Supreme Leader is effectively being controlled or “held captive” by those pushing for negotiations. These factions are now attempting to mobilize their supporters, increase public pressure, and use every available political tool to block, delay, or undermine any potential agreement.

Erdogan through Barrack controls Trump's Iran policy. Like Trump both have alleged connections to Jeffrey Epstein.

The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts was named by Act of Congress, January 1964, signed by President Johnson:

US, Pakistan say Iran deal set for Sunday as Tehran split clouds signing iranintl.com/en/202606133527

It has the legal authority of the Budapest Memorandum without 2/3 Senate approval. And Iran knows it even though Trump doesn't. Trump the convicted felon child rapist and trafficker is surrendering to the terrorists.

Absolutely incredible

Jeremy Scahill from @DropSiteNews tells @BreakingPointsN that the Iranian negotiation team added senior psychologists to review draft communications to Trump because they legitimately believe Trump is suffering from mental illness. Other countries are also concerned. Watch

Iran has started to collapse underground tunnels and caches of enriched Uranium supplies with rigging other locations with explosives to make them harder to access in a peace deal intelligence sources have told CNN. Wow...

🚨 NEW: Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told State TV the emerging U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding is a roughly 1.5-2 page, 14-point document that has been negotiated for more than two months and reviewed line by line by Iran’s Supreme National Security Council and military leadership. 🔸According to Araghchi, the first stage includes: ➤ A formal end to the war on all fronts, including Lebanon ➤ A commitment that neither side will initiate a new war or use threats and force ➤ The lifting of the U.S. naval blockade ➤ A framework for the release of Iran’s frozen assets ➤ The Strait of Hormuz is addressed in the memorandum, with Araghchi saying Iran’s future management of the waterway “will be different from the past” and that services there “will no longer be free.” The arrangement for the 60-day period will be settled by the MoU itself, but other details may be finalized during the follow-on negotiations. ➤ Sanctions relief and reconstruction are raised as part of a reconstruction and economic development plan, but Araghchi says the full mechanisms on the matter will be agreed during later negotiations. 🔸 The Second Stage: ➤ Would consist of 60 days of negotiations toward a final agreement, with the possibility of extension by mutual consent. ➤ Araghchi says those talks will aim to resolve the nuclear file, including uranium enrichment and Iran’s stockpile of 60% enriched uranium. ➤ He says the negotiations will also address the broader issues raised in the memorandum, including sanctions relief, the reconstruction and economic development plan, arrangements related to the Strait of Hormuz, and other technical details. 🔸 On Hormuz (and Oman and China): ➤ He says Iran and Oman, as the two sovereign states bordering the strait, will continue to oversee its security and administration. ➤ Araghchi suggested that services in the Strait of Hormuz that have historically been provided free of charge, including maritime security and safe passage, the designation and maintenance of shipping lanes, environmental protection, and search-and-rescue services, would under a future framework carry fees. ➤ Araghchi says Iran has held close consultations with Oman, which he described as its principal partner on the issue, and that the two sides have reached “good results.” He said joint plans and a joint statement will be announced in the near future. ➤ He also says Iran has held expert-level consultations with other stakeholder nations, including China, noting that roughly 40% of shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz is linked to China because of its economic interests. 🔸Araghchi said the memorandum will be signed remotely in a “digital” format, with each side signing separately before a joint announcement, adding that an agreement could be finalized “within the next day or two, or within the next several days.” 🔗 Araghchi’s full remarks on Friday, translated into English by Drop Site News, are below ⬇️

RT @KerkukiAlan: Remember Trump betrayed the Kurds several times: 2017 - Kirkuk 2019 - Syria 2026 - Syria He wanted to repeat it in Ir…

So let me get this straight… We’re now being told JD Vance used the Situation Room to lead “war room” meetings about the Epstein fallout. Allegations of Trump sexually abusing minors? I thought the Situation Room was for actual wars. Trump keeps telling everyone to move on while the Epstein story keeps getting bigger and closer to home. Then BOOM. We’re in a war with Iran. A war nobody voted for, nobody wanted, and few can clearly explain. Straits of Hormuz closed. Gas prices skyrocket. The entire news cycle changed overnight. Funny how quickly Epstein disappeared from the headlines. You can outrun a news cycle. The print and legacy news media is a joke. You can’t outrun Epstein forever. WE are watching. WE are not stupid. WE are united in the Tired of the Bullshit party.

"Damascus has seized the east, but so far has made no real effort to include it in governance. It rules the three eastern governorates through outsiders, draws on the region’s natural resources, and responds to protests with concessions rather than with inclusion." arabcenterdc.org/resource/co…

Come on South Carolinians. Y’all can do this.

So, Muhammad al Jolani is now avoiding Trump, can’t make this shit up. Trump has turned into that persistent psycho ex demanding a Lebanon ground invasion.

Demonstrators in Tehran are protesting against a potential deal with the U.S., chanting slogans against Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.

Kurds don’t owe America anything, on contrary America owes Kurds everything. Trump and the American administration should know that the Kurdish people will never forget this. I don’t care how incompetent, imbecile, or intellectually bankrupt this president is. The red line has been crossed time and time again, at the expense of the Kurds.

Among all the European nations that have already joined the European Union or see such a prospect for themselves, Ukraine is the one making the greatest sacrifices for Europe. We are not simply carrying out internal reforms, nor are we simply going through a transformation. We are fighting for our state, for our independence, and for our right to choose our own path and to be Europe. And this right of ours is at the same time the right of every nation in our region. We are fighting for our freedom and theirs, for Europe for ourselves and for them – for the Baltic states and for Poland, for Hungary and Slovakia, for Romania and Moldova, and for the peoples of the Caucasus. That is why the fate of Europe is being decided here – it is being decided in Ukraine, in this war, and in how this war ends – and whether Russia will still have the strength and the desire after this war to threaten the existence of Ukraine and its other neighbors, and the entirety of Europe. That is why we must end this war with dignity and with guaranteed security. And this is what we will discuss with our partners during the G7 Summit in France, and later at the European Council Summit and at the NATO Summit in Ankara.

Of course they were trying to trademark the 'Trump Kennedy Center' name. OF COURSE THEY WERE. Never miss an opportunity to grift. 🙄
