I am confused about why I am so bothered by this things appearance. I know for sure if the lizard people thing is still on the table, I’d start with that twat. God damn disturbing. And the fucking hand thing is absolutely enraging. What a bunch of freaks.
Boy he sure sounds agitated trying to spew out his bullshit and lies. listen to his voice quiver. he's getting angry cause he knows he's full of shit and the people aren't buying it anymore.
Maybe? Probably? God knows I don't trust a word coming out of this admin, but don't for a second think that Iran is above lying either. Propaganda is an effective weapon, they'd be fools not to use it. It's even more effective when we know for a fact that our government is lying to us.
They have a massive incentive to tell truth because the facts are mostly on their side and telling the truth puts them above USA who obviously lies. Obviously that does not mean everything they say is true but they are undoubtably more reliable right now.
But they have an even bigger incentive to lie because they know that so many Americans will believe just about anything that any entity says against the trump administration. Amy many of you aren’t even surprised at how far up Iran’s ass that you’ve reached. Just a few years ago, you didn’t like Iran, now you can’t get enough of them. Go figure!
Yes and no. That only works so many times, as demonstrated by USA completely trashing its reputation of honesty in short order. Something which might be worth doing by Iran before the peace deal is signed for example where it has the biggest impact.
Now however we are in a period of "forever war" so its not really worth it to blow your load too early without really getting much in return.
You know you're allowed to read the BBC and Al-Jazeera, right? Those 2, the AP, and Reuters and you'll have a fairly factual, balanced look at what's up in the world.
And why would you even have a chance, you can possible do it by doing something other than venting on Imgur about what you’d like to do, while actually doing nothing. You’ve got the best of both worlds.
Quebec has at least one gender neutral bathroom and the line moves surprisingly fast. I think there's going to be a longer line for anyone in this administration.

Poor baby sounds like he's about to cry.

you can't trust a lying regime
you can take them at face value, orange

Why the FUCK is the Treasury Secretary speaking on a war and the control over an area of conflict?

RetiredLaserMan
"taking a lying regime at face value" - I'm not sure exactly who he was talking about but my $ is on ours.
Quixus
What are kinetic strikes supposed to be? Do their missiles not have explosive payloads?
Chriswagon1
He was trying so hard to keep a straight face on that last line
thornedrose27
Bessent, biggest liar around next to the Orange Felon. Lying sack of rotting filth.

Yep, that's the sound of someone who really wants to say "How dare you question me, peasant."
2dogsfing
“Ashamed to take a lying regime at face value “ ? Really ? Boy the irony is thick

If you believe you have control of the strait, board a ship, and travel through it w/o military protection.
i dare ya, i double dare ya motherfucker

Was the radar station a guest of the bride or groom at the wedding?
FredGarvinMaleProstitute
his husband must be really upset when he comes home at night with Trumps dick on his breath
joshuasplinth
The questioner sounds like a naive kissass.
Btweezer
No one lies more than donnie's administration. I agree with Bessant on this one. If your track record is lies, you never get the benefit of the doubt.

Drugs are a hell of a drug, drugs win the war on drugs and now run the u.s

Drumpf has claimed that the war with Iran was over, won, or near an end, over 40 times... despite ongoing conflict.
And yet here we are..still "obliterating" their military.
PerthAussieMike
Almost as if you can't believe anything he says is true. Oh, wait ... you can't! Yet he still doesn't get called out on it often enough.
CaldariBob
But no boots on the ground...
Antrobus55
I mean, who do they think believes this shit? They don't. We don't. Who in the fuck are they talking to?
iConfirmAnythingAndEverything
It's called gaslighting and they get offended when you dont buy their crap.
boxak
And was the next question “Are you fucking serious right now?”
dghughes
Anytime I see Bessent my brain keeps seeing Will Ferrell in an SNL skit.
Zammurkele
dghughes
Yeah that was major creepiness. It's real he actually did that.
spontaneous9
Uh, no. That's us. WE are in a death-spiral.

Every accusation you say?

Both can be true. Ever seen two male deer fighting get their antlers stuck and they both starve?
SavageDrums
Oh yeah, America is crumbling at a quick pace
BobRossHB
Fracturing may be more apt.
SavageDrums
Your economy and military are both on the verge of collapse, it's not just the political issues.
RetrogradeLlama
Sadly, I trust what the Iranians are telling us more than the White House. This Administration never, ever, tells the truth.
mcoulter876
If you think Iranian media is truthful, you're almost as naive as republicans.
TryTheGrayStuffItsDelicious
Imagine saying that 10 years ago. You’re not wrong but Jesus
1stDrunkJoe
I didn't see any Iranian ayatollah's mentioned thousands of times in the Epstein files.
Exyr
Honestly just take whatever they say and assume the exact opposite. So it was mines that hit some ships and their radar was up and functioning.
Geeebo
Always was….

And the limited precision strikes hit a wedding not radar technology.

I trust the AI slop propaganda that Iran puts out more than the White House right now

Would be nice if the news outlets investigated an put out their own info, rather than parroting what either regime said.

There's a long line, but not nearly as long as the one for the world's first gender neutral public toilet. You know, once the news drops
swanglemydangle

TresusIbor
I keep thinking about all the threats to do that. How much you wanna bet it's going to be the single most guarded gravesite in history?
FrancsTireur
Guarding graves is a fools errand, theres too many ways around it.

You think anyone will remain loyal to the fanta menace? Every single one will say “I never REALLY supported him. I tried to stop him!”
