yah, bombing the power grid is just going to make the avg Iranian suffer ... you know, those who Galumph was trying to help overturn the present regime.

Meanwhile back in the US, TSA agents at airport are not getting paid as there is a partial government shutdown and Trump asked congress for $200B for the war. ICE agent to go to airports to 'help' TSA border agents. So ICE agents are being paid while TSA agents are not?

I'm sure you're aware of this as well, even if you have intentionally left it out in your post -- TSA agents are not getting paid because they are funded under DHS (Dept of Homeland Security), and DHS has run out of funding as a result of the Congress standoff. ICE, on the other hand, has been classified as "essential" just like other law enforcement officers, so they can still get paid.

What I find interesting from this latest ICE deployment is -- the special arrangement to send ICE to "help" at the airports reinforces the suggestion (or fact?) that ICE is really serving as the Orange Man's SS -- ie. Schutzstaffel from Nazi Germany -- to do his bidding. From the exceedingly large operating budget that they have been given, to the dirty work that they have done, I think it is very appropriate to view them under the same lens as the Nazi Germany era SS.

I don't get where this mystery emergency funding is coming from. But they need to beg for $200 billion for the war? So that's not essential

Can't wait to see what's going to happen.

I gotta read up on the 200 billion.

No money, stock marketing is crap, not winning on the ocean front / oil transport, gas prices... How will trump win from this?

Of course he will declare US won... just how will he spin it that he has control.... does he just retreat the battle ships....

at least his post last night got 'changed' - "Trump says he's postponing attacks on Iran power plants, citing 'productive' talks to end war"

what do guy, everything is not bolding well due to stock markets going against him.

More lies from Orange Turd haha. The Iranians reply to Cheeto's so-called claims about a productive conversation about a ceasefire agreement:


Trump postpones strike threat: President Donald Trump told CNN there are 15 points of agreement” between the US and Iran after talks this weekend. He announced earlier he will hold off strikes against Iranian energy sites for five days, after threatening to attack if Tehran did not allow the full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

• Iran responds: Iran’s foreign ministry said there was “no dialogue” between Tehran and Washington, according to state affiliated media. Multiple nations have been passing messages between the US and Iran over the last several days to de-escalate the mounting tensions, sources have told CNN.

It is, he's making up some bullshit about really good talks with Iran that Iran is hard denying that there is any talking going on with them, because of these fake talks he's not going to commit another war crime right now.

To be fair, Iran isn't exactly the most trustful source of information, that said I don't believe anything that Orange demented oompa loompa is saying either.

It's probably just more market manipulation, it might be the only thing he's good at.

FCC Bans All New Routers Not Made in America
Routers the FCC has already approved can still be sold, but further approvals of foreign-made routers will not be issued.

Quote:
The FCC’s public notice about this new router ban quotes a very dire-sounding “National Security Determination” at the FCC that was apparently issued on Friday: “Recently, malicious state and non-state sponsored cyber attackers have increasingly leveraged the vulnerabilities in small and home office routers produced abroad to carry out direct attacks against American civilians in their homes.”


The National Security Determination goes on to say that router vulnerabilities have been exploited as part of a series of notorious attacks and hacks, including the 2024 action by the hacker group Salt Typhoon. It says the supply chain for routers must be secured so that Americans can make sure weÂ’re not unwittingly providing backdoor access to U.S. telecommunications infrastructure.

SO i'm assuming Dlink TP link, Linksys (cisco) are going to try to have it 'made' in US.

TPLink owns 60% of the market so I asked the rep in Canada, how the F will you grow yoru busines???
Who buys a router now? Given many are in apartments and Telus / Bell / Rogers are free.

Then... EVERYONE upgraded during COVID sooo when will you ever buy a new one..

I think there will be a segment of customers who will want or need their own router, bypassing the carrier-supplied routers. Those who are in multi-dwelling units may or may not have the ability to use their own router, so they are SOL.

I've been using my Netgear router for over 10 years and haven't had a reason to upgrade. They rarely, if ever, fail.

Hmm:

An Iranian source told CNN on Tuesday that there had been “outreach” between the United States and Tehran and that Iran is willing to listen to “sustainable” proposals to end the war.

“There has been outreach between the United States and Iran, initiated by Washington, in recent days, but nothing that has reached the level of full-on negotiations,” the source said. “Messages have been received through various intermediaries to scope out whether an agreement to end the war can be reached.”

“The proposals being looked at are aimed not merely at achieving a ceasefire, but a concrete agreement to end the conflict between the US and Iran,” they added without going into further detail.

The source refused to comment on US President Donald Trump‘s public statements on the negotiations, and emphasized Iran’s position has been always clear that Tehran is ready to consider any viable proposal.

“Iran is not asking for a meeting or direct talks with the United States but is willing to listen if a plan for a sustainable deal comes within reach that would preserve the national interests of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the source said.

“Iran is ready to provide all the necessary guarantees that it will never develop nuclear weapons but is entitled to peaceful use of nuclear technology.” The source insisted that any proposal must also include ending all sanctions imposed on Iran.
