I’m thinking that Trump & Co. (with the Saudi’s help) is trying setting up a situation that is analogous to what Iran is currently claiming and pointing out that w/o greater access to Iran’s nuclear infrastructure from the international community, what is the complaint about what is happening in Saudi Arabia?
No way any Saudi citizen would use a nuclear weapon against us, right?

Commercial airplanes are their prefferred WMD.
Well, it was all they had at the time.
I wonder if Trump knows that Westinghouse is Canadian-owned and that one of the co-owners, Brookfield, is the firm that Mark Carney chaired before becoming PM. The other Canadian co-owner, Cameco, should greatly benefit by being a supplier.
So Trump made an agreement with Saudi Arabia, and less than 24 hours later, he is adding new conditions to the agreement - to join the abraham accords, something SA will never do?
WTF?
As our Prime Minister said today of Trump deals:
“not worth the paper they were written on”

In fairness, the deal giving Saudi a green light to enrich uranium is dogshit so this is a positive development

We have 2.5 more years of this shit.
I guess there is a small chance Trump loses big in November and fires his entire team… bringing back semi competent people like he had his first term. He’s losing serious credibility with many of those who have stood there and bought into his crap until now.
Seems like the Houthis/Iran in Yemen looked out their doors and realized they have their own shipping choke point they could start using as leverage against the US.
Lol! He’ll double down.
I know, wishful thinking. MAGA seems to be fading a bit in the midwest/rust belt areas over this stuff though.

Good News. Looks like Oman and Iran have come to an agreement over the Strait.
Now Bessent & Co. are trying to claim they were involved…

I didn’t read the article, but reading just the quote, I see “you’re saying there’s a chance”.
Did not verify the work but sources are given: https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/1vgzz1r/oc_trumps_misinformation_campaign_about_iran_up/
It is easier to count his lies per topic than trying to keep track of all of them.
