In the thread I posted earlier today about the ongoing battle over white Christian nationalism and the Trump administration, I opened with a statement by Sarah Posner saying "the Trump administration has managed to pack what feels like a year’s worth of breaking religion news into the past week."
Commentary about these matters keeps pouring out — so a second thread today.

"As much as most Americans may see the Iran war as a deadly dangerous & costly fiasco driven by a reckless madman, don’t doubt that Vance knows who stands to gain from it. Several days ago, The Guardian documented the windfall this war is providing to the top 100 oil and gas companies, which are making more than $30 million per hour and could pocket an estimated $234 billion in extra profits this year."

Why Should JD Vance Worry?

"After Victor Orbán’s Fidesz party took power in 2010, Hungary became a role model for those who admired corruption, fascism, and loyalty to Vladimir Putin. Orbán’s regime brought widespread crony capitalism, captured Hungarian media outlets, and installed corrupt judges. He actively undermined solidarity within the European Union and worked to block aid to Ukraine. Sound familiar?"
~ Paul Krugman
Why did Prime Minister Viktor Orbán lose the election?
He shook hands with JD Vance!

#US & #Iran officials #fail to come to agreement in face-to-face in Islamabad #ceasefire talks
#JDVance said negotiations between the US & the Iranians have ended without a deal after the Iranians refused to accept US terms to not develop a nuclear weapon.
The high-stakes talks ended after 21 hours, Vance said, with the vice president in constant communication with #Trump & others in the administration.
"The whole world is watching as Donald’s threats become increasingly desperate and extreme, but they’re also watching as the American system proves itself to be completely incapable of reining him in. For our allies, Donald is not the problem, in this instance—America is."

"The Islamabad talks between the United States and Iran are in serious trouble. According to the Financial Times, the negotiations have already reached a stalemate, talks have turned heated, and the central breaking point is control of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran walked in demanding full authority over the waterway. The U.S. floated joint control as a compromise. Iran said no."

They're getting desperate with the distractions, aren't they?
"Aliens" now is it?
And of course, being Trump's America, they have to think the Aliens are actually Demons because they're not right in the head over there....
....the President is still a nonce who started a war with Iran he cannot win.
