Talking with a coworker this morning and all we came up with is that we’ve entered some alternate Universe/timeline. Through no choice of our own to be sure
What a bunch of 12 year old boys. Lying, caniving, cruel, morally bankrupt. This is the best these countries can do? Give ma a room, an intelligent woman from each of these countries and we could fix this shit in an hour. Starting with putting all these assholes in prison.
Thank you for explaining it all so clearly, Jack. I wasn’t expecting it to hold so I’m not shocked or surprised. I just wish I knew how it all ends… or even if it does.
I hate it most of all for the civilians who got caught up in the lies.. I hate it for all of us.
Jack, I search for your comments throughout the day - it's my way, in retirement, of staying cognitively "active" because you make me THINK! That's a good thing, BTW. After I read this post, Churchill started swimming around in my neurons, and his enigma quote came to mind.......so to make sure I quote him correctly, I checked my favorite quote website. In 1939, during a radio broadcast, Churchill was trying to make sense of Russia's actions and intentions toward Germany (we know how that went!).
Churchill stated, “I cannot forecast to you the action of Russia. It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma; but perhaps there is a key. That key is Russian national interest.” You can easily word-smith this quote to fit this "who's on first, what's on second" geopolitical quagmire of Yrump's f'd-up mess! It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma..........
Thanks for giving me my daily cognitive "steps!" My children appreciate it! :)
Back in my college teaching days and raising teenager years, I used to say, "They can't find their butt with both hands!" Helped me ease my frustrations........LOL Now, my adult children understand why I used to mutter that when I walked out of the room! :)
I muttered that to my older kids in their teen years too ..now they are adults and not living with me thank God. The youngest daughter and her boyfriend just bought their first house and she’s doing great finally.. works as hairstylist and she’s Dads bookkeeper.. the eldest daughter.. JFC I gave birth to my mother.. self absorbed wants everything immediately.. like today she texts me and dad and wants into one of my containers at Dad’s work. Dad’s not there he’s working off site for the rest of the week and NO he doesn’t have time to wait for you to get my surf ski out of the container because you decide you’re going to use it.. 🙄😵💫🤬 then I have the secondary issue.. you’re not competent enough to be paddling in the lake by yourself. First it’s cold as Fvck from snow melt and you’re going alone.. in water sports 2 is one and One in None.. you never go alone in case something goes wrong.. do you think Princess Narcissist even thinks of safety.. NOPE.. I’m tired of raising kids. I’ve raised all my brothers kids and I’m raising my hubby’s son from his first marriage who is 13 yrs old.. in total I’m now raising number 15.. I want grandkids so I can sugar them up and give them back. It’s called pay back 😂🤣😂
I love “I gave birth to my mother!” I’ll be using that one for years 😂😂😂
I understand the weariness of raising children. Some of them bring joy when they come through the door, others bring joy when they GO through the door!!
Omg right!! Go thru the door then lock the fvcking door behind them. I hope to hell she doesn’t just show up here. Thinking magically I have a key to what she wants.. one of the last times she was here she assaulted me and I got so pissed when I realized I was bleeding I left hooked her and gave her a black eye.. and Dad warned her she’s not to come here without him here. She has my mother’s temper.
So Taco Trump talked, but Bibi continued bombing. Some weird partnership going on there. Where is Bibi’s negotiators in all this or is Trump being made as the fall guy?
My feeling this is another grift to make money with the stockmarket and oil pricing. Always about the money never about peace. Drumpf and family is making tons of money with the shifting markets and then his bouts are making money with the full circle drones company from the minerals for market to building them, the AI for them, everything and then selling them to the military with no bids on this deal. They have all the bases for the drones. This will have to be canceled once we resume in charge. Denver Riggleman followed what they were doing and wrote apiece for sustack about it. They want the war to continue..the drumpf boys. I keep saying if drumpf is talking he's lying. Thanks for this piece Jack look forward to the next one.
Thank you Jack I always appreciate the breakdown of events. We live in the Bizarro universe for sure. 3 contradictory ceasefire deals, as you state all 3 can't be true. Netanyahu seems to be having Trump run interference for his expansionist desires. Trump and family will benefit no doubt. It is beyond frustrating.
Trump has always been a flimflam man. He believes he can sell anything to anyone, as long as he has enough stupid people (and I mean literally stupid) willing to buy. Those are the MAGAs who re-elected him and cling to him still. But I keep wondering what's in it for people like Laura Ingraham and her ilk, aside from higher salaries based on ratings.
Did seem too good to be true actually.

Debby Burnett...that alternate universe feeling is real…and widely shared.
But...here's the grounding thought. It's not an alternate universe. It's the same universe ...with the circuit breakers removed.
Overpromise. Escalate. Blink. Declare victory. Repeat.
The patterns are historically recognizable. What's different...is the speed…the stakes…and...the absence of anyone in the room...willing to say STOP.
Stay sharp. Stay sane. Talk to your coworker.

Taco Trump did it again he is all talk. There was never an agreement and it will be another Vietnam. You can not believe the United States EVER.
Excellent breakdown with back story, Jack. You've nailed it once again, my Substack friend. Thank you and will reStack ASAP 💯👍
Thank you, Karen. I appreciate you...my friend.
As always...thank you for the reStack. Those are a big deal.

What a bunch of 12 year old boys. Lying, caniving, cruel, morally bankrupt. This is the best these countries can do? Give ma a room, an intelligent woman from each of these countries and we could fix this shit in an hour. Starting with putting all these assholes in prison.
Sounds good...
Thank you Jack, Truth I post generally stays but not always especially proof.
Joan...you're most welcome!

I’ll be looking for the paid piece.

Agree 💯 Diana, national interest of 1 or 2 actors, greed and avarice and megalomania of 2 or 3 as well.
The right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing that’s for damn sure.

Oh boy! Makes me glad my eldest is “punishing” me by not speaking to me! 🤣🤣. The “punishment” this time is going on three years.
Take care of yourself and your emotional spirit. 🤗
God I wish she’d do the same.. go thru the door and then lock the fvcking door behind them and wave fuckity bye 👋🏽

Clusterfuck.
Gotcha.

When we drop Trump and his gang off at The Hague, we should stop by and give Netanyahu and Putin a lift. THEN the world can exhale.

Thanks for the excellent article. Israel will use us up and throw us away.
