No US war since the Bay of Pigs in 1961 has been more stupid than Trump’s war on Iran:
No achievement & enormous cost.
If the US had a normal European parliamentary democracy, Trump would be ousted.Brian Krassenstein (@krassenstein)UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER…. By Trump….This is what Iran Says the Deal will be:
– The United States and its allies must present a plan to restore Iran worth at least $300 billion;
– Unfreezing of $24 billion in Iranian assets within the 60-day period of final negotiations, with half the amount to be provided to Iran before they begin;
– Full and immediate cessation of the war on all fronts, including Lebanon;
– Commitment by the United States to the principle of non-interference in Iran’s internal affairs and respect for the country’s sovereignty;
– Complete lifting of the naval blockade within 30 days;
– Resumption of operations in the Strait of Hormuz within 30 days, taking into account agreements with Iran;
– Commitment by the United States to withdraw troops from territories bordering Iran;
– Suspension of sanctions on the sale of oil, petrochemical products and derivatives, as well as full access for Iran to its financial resources;
– Within 60 days, negotiations must be held to reach a final agreement on nuclear issues and the complete lifting of all sanctions, as well as UN Security Council and IAEA Board of Governors resolutions;
– Confirmation of Iran’s commitment to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and renunciation of nuclear weapons production;
– Commitment by the United States not to increase the number of troops in the region or impose new sanctions during the negotiations;
– Creation of a monitoring mechanism to implement the agreement;
– Approval of the final agreement by a UN Security Council resolution;
– Final negotiations will not begin until half of the Iranian assets are unfrozen, oil sanctions are suspended, and the naval blockade is lifted.— https://x.com/krassenstein/status/2065419009181335752

Trump: The Iranians are very dishonorable people, there’s no dealing in good faith with them.
J.D. Vance: Together with the Iranians, we just might reshape the region and have a lasting peace.— Michael Weiss (@michaeldweiss) Jun 12, 2026
Delta had other plans. A 3:50am Uber, a direct flight to New York… and then 11pm hits and everything changes. Here’s what went down before I played the Jeff Beck tribute show at Warsaw Concerts in Brooklyn. Plus some thoughts on traveling with one guitar, the Reverend Gristle Master, and why Milwaukee somehow always makes sense.
🎸 Playing “You Never Know” (Jeff Beck – There and Back) with Nate Smith on drums
🎸 Jamming on “The Pump” with Alex Skolnick
🎸 “Coven of Lovers” with Eric Gales — plus why my trio does it a little differently
🎸 The gear I travel with and why one guitar does everything
Also on the bill this weekend: Mike Stern, Bill Frisell, Al Di Meola, Vernon Reid, Ali Venable — it’s a full-on guitar summit.
If you’re a fan of Jeff Beck, John Scofield, or just want to know why a Telecaster-style guitar with the right pickups is all you need, stick around.

How can any American accept this idiot as their ruler?
The longer the US endures this absurdity, the less the world will think of the US.
In a parlimaentary system, Trump would have lost power long ago.Acyn (@Acyn)Trump: You had to have an electric boat even though they didn’t work, and even though once you got out there, you had a problem because you couldn’t get back because they didn’t charge long enough. The electric battery is much heavier, so the boat has a tendency to sink .
