Iran cuts all diplomatic channels with US ahead of Trump’s Strait of Hormuz deadline

Oof. Not looking forward to tonight.

This is wild. They are calling his bluff. We could see a TACO tuesday, where he chickens out, and simply lies about 'progress' in negotiations. Or we could see a huge amount of additional death and destruction. My bet is on him chickening out, and I hope he does. Some tweet like "Iran is SCARED and has tentatively agreed to our terms! We're working out a deal now, a BIG, TREMENDOUS deal for the WORLD!" Or whatever. It will be a lie, but he'll add on "So I'm holding off on bombs for another week!"

Apparently threatening to kill your entire country is not a good negotiating tactic

Brace yourself boys. I have no idea what the news will show when i wake up tomorrow.

None of this had to happen, none of it.

I've noticed a pattern with Trump; not being sarcastic here.  Go into a situation involving another party. Cause chaos. Offer the other party a way out of the chaos  (One that benefits Trump) Iran is the first major entity to simply say "no". So now it's bluster, threats, and more chaos. 

The damage 45 has caused will take generations to repair.

It's TACO Tuesday. Trump is going to extend the deadline and claim that Iran begged for a deal and gave the U.S. a huge gift. He won't say what it is, but it's one of the biggest gifts ever given to the U.S., and it's worth a lot of money.

There needs to be stricter guidelines for who can run and/or hold office. Real qualifications, a history of service, mandatory mental health evaluations, age restrictions etc. no stock, no commercial partnerships or deals while in office. For them or any family members or spouses. A code of ethics that’s enforced immediately.

so basically, they quit twitter?

I'm starting to think Jared Kushner is everything I was told Hunter Biden was.

Maybe they dont negotiate with terrorists

Removing the "Oh they asked us for an extension" excuse from Cheetolini.

Feels so weird doing my little tasks at my little cubicle in my little office today as a good corporate drone while anticipating that WW3 might spark off tonight. Does anyone else feel like February 2020 all over again? It’s like I know the world is about to change but I just don’t know what the new world will look like. 

At least no one’s saying “Epstein” anymore.

In Australia about to go to bed. Sitting here in the dark wondering if I’m waking up tomorrow to nuclear war or TACO Tuesday. Also p****** appear to be showing only M rated content here in protest of Australia’s new age verification laws. Wild times, man. Just wild. Edit: appreciate if we could all stop replying please I’m trying to jerk off in peace here so I can at least have a decent nights sleep before WW3 starts tomorrow. Thanks again for your understanding.

Someone else posted this, wanted to share Mar 3: "We won the war." Mar 7: "We defeated Iran." Mar 9: "We must attack Iran." Mar 9: "The war is ending almost completely, and very beautifully." Mar 11: “You never like to say too ⁠early you won. We won. In ​the first hour it was over.” Mar 12: "We did win, but we haven't won completely yet." Mar 13: "We won the war." Mar 14: "Please help us." Mar 15: "If you don't help us, I will certainly remember it." Mar 16: "Actually, we don't need any help at all." Mar 16: "I was just testing to see who's listening to me." Mar 16: "If NATO doesn't help, they will suffer something very bad." Mar 17: "We neither need nor want NATO's help." Mar 17: "I don't need Congressional approval to withdraw from NATO." Mar 18: "Our allies must cooperate in reopening the Strait of Hormuz." Mar 19: "US allies need to get a grip - step up and help open the Strait of Hormuz." Mar 20: "NATO are cowards." Mar 21: "The Strait of Hormuz must be protected by the countries that use it. We don't use it, we don't need to open it." Mar 22: "This is the last time. I will give Iran 48 hours. Open the strait" Mar 22: "Iran is Dead" Mar 23: "We had very good and productive talks with Iran." Mar 24: "We’re making progress." Mar 25: “They gave us a present and the present arrived today. And it was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money. I’m not going to tell you what that present is, but it was a very significant prize.” Mar 26: "Make a deal, or we’ll just keep blowing them away." Mar 27: "We don’t have to be there for NATO." Mar 28: No major quote Mar 29: Claimed talks were progressing Mar 30: "Open the Strait of Hormuz immediately, or face devastating consequences." Mar 31: Claimed a deal was "very close" and that Iran would "do the right thing" Apr 1: "We’ll see what happens very soon." Apr 2: Repeated that a deal was likely, while warning of continued strikes if not Apr 3: "Something big is going to happen." Apr 4: Said Iran must comply "immediately" or face further consequences. Apr 5: "Open the fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah." This is the leader of the USA lol.

God damn, how many children did he r***?

Oh f*** me this is going to go to the brink isn't it.

Narcissists hate being ignored LOL

Just the rhetoric...ending civilizations and wiping people off the face of the earth. Even in a movie it sounds a bit much. We need mental screenings for higher security jobs but this a****** just walks in.

I’m sitting at work trying to focus. My extended family is Persian and lives in Tehran, I don’t know what’s going to happen to them.

Waiting for tonight feels like when you know a Hurricane is about to make landfall, but you’re not sure if it’s going to hit as a Category 5 or a Category 1.

when the astronauts get back there will be no alive lol no one alive\*

Prediction: Trump will claim some military operation was successful and that the straight is now open without Iran doing or agreeing to anything. And then he’ll praise himself for saving the lives of thousands of people he was threatening killing.

Uh oh

I see the negotiations are continuing to bear fruit 

Between hearing rumors of US military considering using nuclear weapons instead of ground invasion because it's been done before....and Trump saying "a war crime is having a nuke"....and with Trump's declining health and mega narcissist ego....and firing military leadership recently.....and with Hegseth and Christian Nationalists trying to make the End Times happen.... I got a real bad feeling about this.

Not great, Bob!

Smart. I guess. By telling everyone in advance that there is no communication Trump won’t be able to say in the last minute that he talked to them and chose to extend the deadline. So I guess they’re calling his bluff.

We as the US can end this today. We just need congress to be brave for the day. If not then we need to brave until its done. The only out of this is through.

I am actually concerned. I used to think he was all bark no bite, but after Venezuela and initiating this war, it gives me pause. I interact with elderly people often and sometimes they show erratic and impulsive behavior due to mental decline, and I think that's what's happening here.

Does anyone have a billionaire private jet tracker? I’d be really concerned if we start seeing a lot of them going to New Zealand.

Gonna be a long f****** night.  Wondering if US military will overthrow Trump before he gets to use nukes

By doing this, he can't back down over some alleged negotiation because there can be none.

To all the people that didn’t vote for Kamala, this is the results. Tens of thousands dead. Alliances shattered. The deficit and national debt are exploding. Everything is more expensive. This is your f****** fault.

“A whole civilization will end tonight” I’m not a military strategist. But I don’t think this sends a message of “rise up” to the Iranian people. It sounds like a threat to all of their existence. What the f*** is he doing… you Yankees are okay with this?

As a millennial can I please stop having these once in a generation events every couple months?

He already backed out https://www.cnbc.com/2026/04/07/trump-iran-ceasefire-hormuz-strait.html

Its taco Tuesday. Time for the president to bluff again

This is it boys and girls, the music has stopped and we're going to be left holding the biggest bag of odorous excrement ever assembled in the history of capitalism.
