Nick Arama at RedState notes Iran Tries One Last Gambit As Trump Appears Ready to Act. Capt. Ed says Hmmm: IRGC Submits New Proposal After Trump Warns 'Clock Is Ticking'. News Wax has a Report: Iran Proposal Risks Renewed War. Dave Strom at Hat Hair begs For God's Sake Mr. President, Quit Stalling; UPDATE: Trump Explains Delay. Iran International English @IranIntl_En, "President Donald Trump told the New York Post he is “not open” to concessions to Tehran after Iran’s latest response to US efforts to reach a deal to end the war. Trump said he was not “frustrated” with Tehran but suggested Iran understands the risk of further US action. “I can tell you they want to make a deal more than ever, because they know we’re—what’s going to be happening soon." Asked about his earlier suggestion that he might accept a 20-year moratorium on Iranian uranium enrichment, Trump said: “I’m not open to anything right now.” The president declined to elaborate, saying: “I can’t really talk to you about it. Too many things are happening. Asked about claims that Iran may be trying to wait out Washington over the nuclear issue and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, Trump said he “hadn’t heard that.” “I’m not hearing anything,” he said. “I can’t talk to you about it.” Time to start taking out infrastructure. Start with Tehran's power grid. At TownHall, Dmitri Bolt has President Trump Just Made a Major Announcement About Iran and Iran Is Now Dumping Its Oil Into the Sea, because they can't sell it, and they can't stop pumping it, or the wells go bad. PJM's Scott Pinsker on How to Win the Iran War AND Make Greta Thunberg Weep in One Easy Step. Trent Telenko @TrentTelenko, "And there are still people saying the US Blockade of Iran is failing." Quote Visioner @visionergeo " — Long lines formed at gas stations in Bandar Abbas on Saturday, May 16, amid what a citizen described as a crisis in access to gasoline, a video sent to Iran International shows. Iran faces a daily gasoline shortage of 30 million liters, according to a member..." John The Main Guy @JohnTheMainGuy1, "This will tick the Arabs off." Quote Open Source Intel @Osint613 "Iran has established a new body called the "Persian Gulf Strait Authority" (PGSA), designated as the official legal entity overseeing transit through the Strait of Hormuz." Fresh targets. Shipwreckedcrew @shipwreckedcrew, "As Trump has said, wars don't need to be "popular" when the goal is sufficiently important. Denying Iran nuclear weapons is about as important a goal as you can have given the apocalyptic nature of the regime. If Iran gets functioning nukes, it will use them because they would bring about Islamic theocracy's prophesy and "End Times" as found in the Hadith, the recorded sayings and traditions of the Prophet Muhammad." Quote Kyle Stevie @Kylestevie1 Replying to @shipwreckedcrew, "You guys killed your Independent support. Iran is the least popular conflict in US history, we are at the precipice of a VERY bleak economic period, high inflation is a certainty, AND energy crises are beginning to show around the globe." At Twitchy, Krystal Ball Vapidly Announces That Americans Have Been the REAL Terrorists All Along. Who?

VodkaPundit at PJM, Russia and Ukraine Trade Blows in Huge Night of Drone Strikes. John Sexton at Hat Hair reports Moscow Becomes a Target for Ukrainian Drones. Seems fair to me. Maybe it will encourage Putin to seek a solution. Project Liberal @ProjectLiberal, "Trump is literally older than the People's Republic of China." Quote Michelle @D162Michele "China literally has trees in Xi Jinping’s garden that are older than the United States!" Old trees aren't that rare. I guess the point is supposed to be that China plans farther into the future, but the fact is that Communist China is a very recent country, really. Montie Donohue at Am Think thinks about Trump's Business First Diplomacy, "While the media frames President Trump’s Beijing summit with Xi Jinping as just another high-stakes photo-op, the real story runs deeper and looks strikingly familiar." RCW thinks Venezuela Is Proving a Rare Successful Intervention. If so, it's because Trump didn't install a bunch of idealistic left-leaning morons to run the country. The people he left in charge probably aren't nice, but they can read the room. Thad McCotter at Am Great spells out The ‘Free Trade’ Tax on Americans. "Free trade hollowed out American industry while enriching global elites; Trump’s tariffs aim to make economic nationalism work for US workers again."
Capt. Ed at Hat Hair evidently reads Politico: 'Smartest Guy In the Political Morgue' Belatedly Realizes Trump's Relevance; UPDATE: NYT Too? At Althouse, CNN goes wild over the incredible power of Trump's endorsement. "And this is sort of just going back through the archives to see how bad Bill Cassidy did. He got 25 percent of the vote, okay? I went back and I looked at every single non-appointed senator. This in my mind was the worst primary showing ever, at least since the end of World War II. That is how badly Bill Cassidy did. He did worse than every single one. Getting 25 percent of the vote for a senator in a primary? It's literally unheard of! And that is because, of course, Donald Trump endorsed against this guy.... When in fact you go against President Trump, you go in the grinder...."

Betsy Stauffer at LI has hopes, Are Pollsters Missing the ‘Silent Spencer Pratt Voters’? Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok, "Spencer Pratt: I’m gonna remove the homeless druggies from in front of your kids’ elementary school, let you rebuild your homes, and arrest criminals. Karen Bass: Taxpayer funded teeth for meth heads. Nithya Raman: I’m gonna ban BBQs How is this even a choice." Somehow, Google Maps reverted to a pre-fire view of Los Angeles, leading to suspicion that Google was shilling for Bass. PJM's Vicky Taft, Why Did Torched Ghost Homes of Palisades and Altadena Just Miraculously Reappear on Google Maps? Beege Welborn at Hat Hair, Something Kind of Hinky in LA and It's Not Just Google Satellite Views UPDATE. Google claims it was a "glitch" and fixed it. Spotted Reptile @spottedreptile, "The magic phrase “election interference” popped up and suddenly all mapping companies are reverting to the real map images. Yeah." The Babylon Bee @TheBabylonBee, "New Polls Show Dead Heat Between ‘Make Everything Worse’ Candidate And ‘Fix Everything’ Candidate."

"Democrat pitch to billionaires: “We are going to kill you and take your stuff.” Republican pitch to billionaires: “Just please stop hiring foreign labor over Americans.” Median billionaire: “I’m voting Democrat.”" Quote Molly Crane-Newman @molcranenewman Replying to @molcranenewman, “I’m saying fuck Brian Thompson. I don’t give a flying fuck he died,” says Ashley Rojas, wearing her press badge provided by @NYCMayorsOffice. Lena Weissbrot adds that Thompson’s teenage sons “are better off without him” and should “enjoy the blood money.” Matt Vespa, These Luigi Mangione Fans Are Sick, But It Sort of Aligns With the Findings of This Psychotherapist. Matt Margolis at PJM VIP wonders Why Are So Many on the Left Convinced the Trump Assassination Attempts Were Staged?The Center Square notes Europe tried wealth taxes. Most gave up. VodkaPundit at Insty thinks YOU’RE GONNA NEED A BIGGER BLOG: AOC’s Poor Understanding of America. "Ms. Ocasio-Cortez has little, if any, awareness of where money comes from—no knowledge of finance, of savings and investment, of creating a product or conceiving an invention that adds value to the economy. She operates in a stark and static universe without consequences and trade-offs, without growth or mobility. There are only victims and victimizers. And according to the RealClearPolitics polling average, she’s in fourth place in the 2028 Democratic primary." From TCW, The ‘working class’ mantle worn by every leftie leader bent on betraying their country.
PJM's Matt Margolis, Multiple 2020 Election Fraud Investigations in Georgia and Arizona Are Underway and Vicky Taft, LA Woman Pleads Guilty in Federal Court to Doing That Thing That Never Happens... in Voter Scam. bumbadum @bumbadum14, "Some people may not be "hip" to this because it was 6 years ago... But in Georgia the Freedom Caucus people sued the state to recount and audit the ballots. The judge never threw out the case so the ballots were held in evidence for over 6 years, and just recently it was found that over 300,000 ballots were certified without poll worker signatures. Yes the 2020 election was 100% stolen." Quote Isaac Saul @Ike_Saul, "It has been six years. Every single "stolen election" theory — from 2,000 Mules to servers in Italy to Georgia suitcases — has been debunked, crushed in court, painstakingly explained, and none of these guys ever have the goods cause it's all nonsense to please POTUS. It's x.com/atrupar/status…"

Ace, "Feeding Our Future" Looting Mastermind Aimee Bock: "I Struggle to See How" Ilhan "Omar" Wouldn't Have Known About the Pillaging of the American Taxpayer. "The Party of Looters & Shoters, continued. I suppose this could just be a convict attempting to get a deal in exchange for her testimony. But she's not really offering testimony. She doesn't claim that she knows Ilhan Omar was involved in the plot. She's speculating that Ilhan Omar must have known, which is not witness testimony, just speculation and kibbitzing."
John Ʌ Konrad V @johnkonrad, "After @PeteButtigieg lies about modernizing Air Traffic systems and reducing highway fatalities he explains what he did with the $2 Trillion congress gave him: “Magnificent” Baggage claim areas for airports nobody cares about, Wildlife tunnels (that still aren’t finished) across racist highways in the middle of nowhere and DOT lawyers who harassed airlines like Spirit."
