The Saudis are learning what every contractor who's ever worked for Trump knows: He does not honor his deals or pay his bills.
Saudi Arabia is in big trouble, with their oil industry under attack from multiple directions.
The Saudis spent years bribing Trump and Kushner. At first, it seemed like a good investment. But the Iran war screwed them, now they really need help, and the US can't/won't.

When Hef is repeatedly telling the feds someone has a child sex ring, FFS someone should have done SOMETHING.
The more I hear about FBI involvement in suppression of contacts and details in their possession. The more inclined I am to believe someone in there has a lot to hide…..and they’re probably still alive ?

Iran war advocates got exactly what they wanted. It just didn't work out how they imagined.
For years, the argument for the US attacking Iran was that the regime was brittle, on the verge of collapse, and bombing would put them over the edge.
That assumption was core to the case against JCPOA too.

The Iran war was not mismanaged. As much as Hegseth makes everything a farce, this is about as close to the best outcome without forcing 2-5m troops through Bandar Abbas. There was no "good" Iran war. People are either lying or being stupid

I think tearing down Trump's monstrosities, and scraping all that gold crap off the walls, would be healthy symbolism about recovering the country.
