Is Krasnov Getting Ready To Surrender

Oh sure he will declare victory while he is surrendering.

Going to be hard to declare victory when:

Krasnov said he must approve the new leader of Iran - the son of the Supreme leader took over and he is worse than dad.

Krasnov said Iran better not stop the flow of oil through Hormuz or he will hit them 20 times harder - Iran has stopped the flow of oil except for Iranian oil that is being shipped to China. Iran is shipping more oil to China today than it did before the war, oh and Iran is mining Hormuz.

7 Americans killed and 140 wounded, 8 seriously wounded.

He goes on TV and lies about bombing an Iranian school for girls, when he claimed he was backing the people.

Stock market is tanking.

Price of crude is rising with gasoline and diesel prices also rising.

The economy is showing signs of a recession with the war increasing inflation and jobs at recession-like lows.

Krasnov has lost the right wing media - Joe Rogan and Tucker Carlson have attacked Krasnov for the war.

Congressional Magats are calling for Krasnov to declare victory and surrender, well, Lyndsey Graham wants Krasnov to move on to Cuba.

I suggest that Krasnov better keep doing rallies in deep red America and screen the few people who attend. His ego is in dire need of stoking.

I Was Reminded Of Something After We Bombed That Girl's School

It was right after 9/11, a coworker said to me, we should go over there and kill them all and start with the children because they will just grow up to be terrorists.

That girls' school was close to a Naval base and a lot of the children in that school were kids of Iranian Naval personnel.

Sorry, but it's gotten to the point where I can see Hegseth doing that.

Iran Is Going Scorched Earth Mode

Iran just attacked the largest refinery in the ME. Iran has been attacking refineries in numerous ME countries, so far the damage has been minimal but significant enough to temporarily shut down the refineries.

Iran is using the strategy to make the price of oil so high that the US and Israel will end the war, it's like a murder/suicide strategy.

When/if Iran starts targeting oil export facilities then the shits going to hit the fan.

I look and the price of crude and see that Dubai crude which targets the ME is 115 dollars a barrel today but West Texas crude is 86 dollars a barrel today. Which number is the most accurate?

I admit, maybe I'm wrong, but when a Democrat is president the price of gas surges just for switching seasonal blends. Now we have a war in the ME, refineries are being blown up and West Texas crude is below 90 dollars/barrel?

Going To War With Iran - Huge Mistake For Krasnov

I predicted this several times, I posted that if Krasnov went to war in Iran, it will be his downfall.

The worst for Krasnov is yet to come. A tanker is on fire in Hormuz. Tankers are sitting ducks. What will the cost be for our Navy to escort tankers through Hormuz? Iran is reportedly laying mines in the waters. Several ME countries are cutting back on oil production. Krasnov killed the supreme leader of Iran and some of his family, but he didn't kill the new leader, his son who is much more radical. What do they say in the ME? An eye for an eye.

Bibi has a copy of the Epstein files.

Putin and Bibi both used Krasnov to do their bidding, either through blackmail or by flattering him.

Krasnov isn't going to say when this war is over, Iran is going to say, and I suspect it will be many years from now, Krasnov really fucked up this time, the genie is out of the bottle.

Oh and only one country that I can think of surrendered because of being bombed, Japan. Which way does the wind blow from Tehran?

Maybe The Sheriff In The Nancy Guthrie Kidnapping Should Investigate The FBI

Two hooded people knock on the window of Nancy's neighbor at 7:30 at night and it's raining. Neighbor lets them in when they say they are FBI. They snoop around the house and garage for 20 minutes and leave.

Neighbor reports this and the FBI says the two people weren't FBI. later on it says, we made a mistake, they are FBI.

Hey sheriff, better start interrogating members of the FBI. This whole investigation stinks. Why did the sheriff send the DNA he collected to a private lab and not give it to the FBI, didn't he trust the FBI?

Sheriff, do not rule out that Krasnov was pissed when Nancy's daughter interviewed several Epstein victims.

Why A Downturn In Our Economy Is Going To Be Worse

Worse than when a Democrat was president.

When economies weakened under Democratic presidents, they spent money, on the poor and middles class, and when they did so, the poor and middle class spent that money, kept it circulating, demand rescued us.

Krasnov, in his Big Ugly Death Bill has given the money to his rich cronies, has given away our land to the fossil fuel industry, has gutted our social safety net (which most of the big cuts are coming Dec. 1st), he has taken money away from the poor and middle class, he had DOGE eliminate tens of thousands of good paying jobs, while still enormously increasing our debt. Look what he is spending every day for his war.

When the shit hits the fan, a recovery is going to be so much harder because of what Krasnov has done. Trickle down economics to the eleventy billioneth degree.

His rich pals will still make money when the shit hits the fan and Krasnov will proclaim, the greatest economy ever, none like it, and he will be telling the truth, and his billionaire friends will party at million dollar's a plate parties at Mar-a-Lago.

Why Hasn't The US/Israel Bombed Kharg Island In Iran

Kharg Island is the port that exports 90% of Iran's oil. I guess if you plan on taking a country's oil one must preserve its major shipping port.

Release the strategic oil reserves, unwashed Magats can't afford to gas up their pickup trucks.

Is Crude Oil Headed To $150.00/barrel

Crude at $115/barrel, numerous ME countries are cutting production.

Biden's fault or Obama?

Unwashed Magats are going to get hit in the kissers when they fill up their pickup trucks.

More Suspicions Arise About Epstein's "Suicide."

Looks like the going rate for prison guards to look the other way may be $5,000.00

The prison guard overseeing Epstein while in jail made a $5,000.00 deposit shortly before Epstein's "suicide."

Release the Epstein autopsy.

Krasnov May Cure Inflation

With people out of work, gasoline and gas and electric prices rising, people losing healthcare, it's a given that inflation will be cured by people cutting way back on spending. Right wing economists are praising this possibility. What they will not call this is what I call it, deflation, people, well not counting rich people, will not be able to afford the bare necessities of life.

Hooray the billionaires scream, the greatest economy ever and we won't have to wait in line at the hospital seeing as unwashed Americans won't be in line ahead of us, by the way, that's the main reason that wealthy people fight against single payer health care for all, poor people get in their way.

Greatest economy ever for the rich.
