The Convicted Felon Pedophile and the Drunk from FoxNews

Posted by Otto Kleinberg on May 25, 2026, 4:01 am

have egg on their faces with Iran. Looks like cut and run time. Cannot continue to spend $ billions on a stalemate.

tRUMP mocked Presidents over the last 47 years for not doing anything with Iran. They understood the implications of dealing with Iran. tRUMP and Hegseth are incompetent and unqualified.

Obama had a good deal. tRUMPs hate for Obama has been very costly.

TRUMP and Hegseth are doing a great job, but too slowly.

Look past your prejudice. What was Obama's deal?

Give them more money to fund Iran's proxies and terrorist organizations. That's the problem with Americans nowadays; they can't think past their hatred.

It's all over now anyway; China, Russia, and Iran became an alliance decades ago. And the itty-bitty little Israel is worth trillions in natural resources, there's lots of folks drooling.

My guess is that Russia will take over most of Europe and then head south, and it doesn't look like Europe will give them much of a fight seeing their leaders are chickening out. The people are starting to rise up but not their government; too bad they couldn't have gotten their hands on all those weapons Biden left in Afghanistan.

'They' must destroy the great satan before they can get to all that wealth sitting in their backyard.

Look past your love for a Convicted Felon and Pedophile

Posted by Otto Kleinberg on May 25, 2026, 7:21 am, in reply to "Look past your prejudice. What was Obama's deal?"

Under Obama’s deal he released $ 1.7 billion to Iran. One of tRUMPs recent proposals had $ 20 billion on the table.

Under Obama’s deal Iran had to reduce its stockpile of uranium by 98%, and will keep its level of uranium enrichment at 3.67% — significantly below the 90% enrichment level needed to create a bomb.

Iran was under strict inspection by US, NATO and other Muslim nations.

and that money was due them to begin with. It was not "ours"

It was our money until we handed it over to them

Plain and Simple

your ignorance of the situation is astounding

Posted by trish on May 25, 2026, 1:06 pm, in reply to "It was our money until we handed it over to them"

it released $1.7 billion of Iranian funds that had been frozen in the United States since 1979. This payout settled a decades-old legal dispute before the Iran-U.S. Claims Tribunal regarding a failed pre-revolution military purchase

your ignorance of the situation is astounding

Posted by Ted. on May 25, 2026, 1:24 pm, in reply to "your ignorance of the situation is astounding"

Is that why they sent pallets of American currency?

You'll never please these people. Are you too stupid to understand what I was trying to convey to that pee-brained democrat brain of yours?

Should we have offered virgins also? Would that have pleased them?

"""Posted by Ted. on May 25, 2026, 12:03 pm, in reply to "and that money was due them to begin with. It was not "ours""
We have lots of Middle Eastern virgins living in America; if we had also offered the virgins, would that have pleased them? world that make you happy? How about we throw in a few Wiccans, a few Christians, and some gays so they could have a hanging party? Would that make them happy? Maybe a couple hundred Jews to put some icing on the cake.

Then they could have themselves a big old orgy just like the old days.

""""""

You mean to tell me that you "did not understand" what I was trying to convey in my response to you. I know you're a smart woman, but are you really that prejudiced that you refuse to understand this?

Let me make it plain! YOU ARE ANYONE ELSE; WILL NEVER EVER PLEASE THESE PEOPLE!

It seems to me that they love death, while America 'as of now' STILL loves life.

Fact!

So you bow to bullies.

Did you get beaten up at school a lot?

so they should have exchanged the money first?

Posted by trish on May 26, 2026, 7:40 am, in reply to "your ignorance of the situation is astounding"

that would be rediculous.

"rediculous"?

Spelling is not your strong suit either.

LOL

Try using spell-check

So?

Posted by Oh please on May 25, 2026, 1:15 pm, in reply to "your ignorance of the situation is astounding"

Doesn't change the fact that it was our money Until we handed it over to them. Your accusation of ignorance is projection at it's best.

I'm getting to the point that I believe that

Posted by Ted. on May 25, 2026, 1:34 pm, in reply to "So?"

The libs would have you killed and save a murderous Iranian.

what about the "it was THEIR money" don't you understand

Posted by trish on May 26, 2026, 7:39 am, in reply to "I'm getting to the point that I believe that "

IT'S EVIDENT THAT IRAN HAS BEEN GETTING WHAT THEY WANT FOR 40 YEARS.

Posted by Ted. on May 26, 2026, 11:37 pm, in reply to "what about the "it was THEIR money" don't you understand"

You can't keep feeding bullies, Trish. We've bowed for 47 years.

So, they earned it and should get to keep it, right?

Posted by Arwen on May 26, 2026, 7:52 am, in reply to "what about the "it was THEIR money" don't you understand"

The world’s biggest sponsor of state terror should get to keep all of what they have…..is that your point?

Oh, think of the implications if progressives were that passionate about the earnings of American taxpayers.

Information - far more detail thank I could provide

same old, same old Arwen trying to force her ignorance on other more intelligent posters.

But a skunk cannot lose it's stripe or it's stink.

Son, there's absolutely nothing "intelligent" about you.

Your childish name calling doesn’t change the facts.

Posted by Arwen on May 27, 2026, 7:06 am, in reply to "Actually you are totally irrelevant "

If you can’t defend your opinion with logic and reason, perhaps it wasn’t worth stating in the first place.

Totally flawed analogy

Posted by Otto Kleinberg on May 26, 2026, 10:30 am, in reply to "So, they earned it and should get to keep it, right?"

Point out the flaw.

Posted by Arwen on May 26, 2026, 12:00 pm, in reply to "Totally flawed analogy"

You want the largest sponsor of global terror to keep “their” money.

But you are quick to support confiscating the earnings of tax paying Americans if you think they earn too much.

Should we have offered virgins also? Would that have pleased them?

we are not talking trafficing (please try to focus)

What is that word liberals love so much?

Posted by Ted. on May 25, 2026, 1:32 pm, in reply to "we are not talking trafficing (please try to focus)"

F them; they owe the world and the people whose lives have been destroyed by them trillions.

It's a sad day in America when people like you hate the president so much that you pull for murderers like the Iranian regime.

Oh yeah, the F word. What a lot of idiots.

In Iran they would cut her head off.

what I find sad is that you do not understand

Posted by trish on May 26, 2026, 7:46 am, in reply to "What is that word liberals love so much? "

what constitutes a legal war.

Let me ask you something. How did Iran go from having its nuclear capabilities "wiped out" (Per Trump), then in 9 months become a huge threat?

Details please.

It didn't. This is another ruse, one that puts more money in Trump family pockets and manipulates stocks. Insider trading happens openly now.

If you so love this country, then you should hate Trump's blatant disregard for the Constitution and division of powers. How he uses the DOJ to go after people because they dared to disagree. How he spends millions on a primary to try to shut someone up and keep them out of the Capitol.

All of this is okay by you.

I think you are angry at the wrong people

More Trump Hate?

Posted by Cheap Seats Shaman *= on May 26, 2026, 8:14 am, in reply to "what I find sad is that you do not understand"

Remember, according to our constitution, he was duly elected and no amount of hate escaping from your fingers can change that.

The majority of America has seen through your ProgComm agenda.

NOPE just Trump truths by the number

Posted by Trish on May 26, 2026, 11:25 am, in reply to "More Trump Hate?"

like his approval rating of 38%

His net approval sits at approximately -20, driven downward by public frustration over ongoing inflation, high costs of living, and the conflict in Iran

average job approval only 37%

inflation and economly only 25%

only 38% beleive he keeps promises

a good role model only 26%

use of military force 38%

So I would say the majority of Americans are seeing through this administration's BS.

Boy Oh Boy!!! With polling numbers like that, he may not get elected!

Posted by Cheap Seats Shaman *= on May 26, 2026, 4:00 pm, in reply to "NOPE just Trump truths by the number"

🥱

Those numbers illustrate that your statement was wrong

Posted by trish on May 27, 2026, 5:44 am, in reply to "Boy Oh Boy!!! With polling numbers like that, he may not get elected!"

but of course you knew that

Point out the flaw...

Posted by Cheap Seats Shaman *= on May 27, 2026, 12:32 pm, in reply to "Those numbers illustrate that your statement was wrong"

Are you expecting Trump to run again?

(or are you just being a contrarian again?)

The majority of Americans have now seen

Posted by trish on May 28, 2026, 7:37 am, in reply to "Point out the flaw..."

through Trump's propaganda and grifts

You seem to think he's "popular"

You mean the majority of those who were polled...

Posted by Cheap Seats Shaman *= on May 28, 2026, 3:56 pm, in reply to "The majority of Americans have now seen"

...and refuse to accept the results of the election.

(what percentage of the electorate is that?)

It’s pretty sad

Posted by Otto Kleinberg on May 25, 2026, 4:50 pm, in reply to "What is that word liberals love so much? "

When scumbags like you voted for a Convicted Felon and Pedophile for President.

tRUMP made a 9 year old give him a BJ and he raped a 13 year old.

You and your ilk are low life scum along with your Orange Messiah.

seek help

Posted by Ted. on May 25, 2026, 5:55 pm, in reply to "It’s pretty sad"

You're sick!

It was frozen Iran assets

Posted by Otto Kleinberg on May 25, 2026, 8:32 am, in reply to "and that money was due them to begin with. It was not "ours""

Well, they certainly didn't use that money to improve themselves...

Posted by Cheap Seats Shaman *= on May 25, 2026, 9:24 am, in reply to "It was frozen Iran assets"

They still live with a 10th Century mindset.

It’s funny that you don’t mention

Posted by Otto Kleinberg on May 25, 2026, 11:05 am, in reply to "Well, they certainly didn't use that money to improve themselves..."

the $ 20 billion that tRUMP had on the table for one of his peace proposals with Iran.

Sweep it under the rug.

of course not

Posted by Trish on May 25, 2026, 1:09 pm, in reply to "It’s funny that you don’t mention"

that would undo their enboldenment for being "furious" (or whatever)

What's even funnier is your support for Islam.

Posted by Cheap Seats Shaman *= on May 25, 2026, 12:37 pm, in reply to "It’s funny that you don’t mention"

Always remember, that Islam wants your head on a stump, Infidel.

even funnier with your hate for Islam…

Posted by Jacques Koph on May 26, 2026, 11:08 am, in reply to "What's even funnier is your support for Islam."

Is the thought that it opens for acceptance your own practice of hate. No, not the hate that you freely acknowledge, but the inbred hate that you harbor much deeper than that, like only a Sméagol would.

Unburden yourself.

IOWs, you support Islam's promise of world/religious control?

Posted by Cheap Seats Shaman *= on May 26, 2026, 4:03 pm, in reply to " even funnier with your hate for Islam…"

What about their Fatwa against us for the past 50 years?
