All the more reason to say no to him. As if I needed more reasons.

You can kind of see this as a general win for anybody who is a fan of using psychedelics for treatment of mental health issues, but it’s important to point out that both of the people mentioned in the headline have ulterior motives for this move.

Trump wants to get Joe Rogan back on his side after he alienated him with his Iran antics. Joe Rogan is one of the biggest conservative megaphones in the nation and he can’t afford to have him be talking shit about MAGA before the midterms, so he’ll throw him a bone about this one issue that he doesn’t give a fuck about anyway.

Joe Rogan is doing this to be able to hopefully one day self-administer psychedelics, not get meaningful treatment or aid from a professional to guide him through the process and change himself for the better.

I’m not sure which of these two are being more selfish at this point.

Someday everyone will claim to have always opposed him.

This doesn’t hurt Iran at all, it just makes the problem worse for everyone else. All this will accomplish is loading more international pressure on the United States to end the conflict immediately with major concessions to Iran.

If you lose to Donald Trump, you are literally unelectable.

How convenient for her 🙄

It remains to be seen if Trump can keep a lid on his ego long enough for the whole thing to blow over and Iran to get the concessions they want. The markets are reacting strongly to the news, but I am not convinced that the two week ceasefire will amount to anything if the Trump admin can’t leave the issue well enough alone. We’ll just have to wait and see if the war is more profitable for Trump and his insider trading buddies than it is politically volatile for him.

He’s obviously going to try and spin this as a victory if he does manage to pull out successfully, but it’s important to ask the question - what were the US war goals and did they achieve them? He should not get credit for starting a war and then ending it swiftly, that is the expected outcome. Seems to me that they’ve accomplished nothing and are bragging about cleaning up the mess that they created. Hopefully people will still remember come midterms this year.

Comforting as this angle might be to some, I hate that people are trying to excuse what are clearly a lifetime of personality flaws and intentional bad behavior by removing his agency and attributing it to severe mental illness.

He’s not demented, he’s just an evil piece of shit.

To think that in the interest of electoral fairness, we let this guy be president again instead of putting him in a prison for life where he absolutely belongs.

To any democratic strategists out there who might be reading my post, if you want my attention, start getting your candidate to talk loudly and often about how they will punish Trump and every single member of his administration on Day 1. Lifetime prison sentences for Epstein related coverups. Hangings for treason, war crimes and crimes against humanity. Lengthy prison sentences for fraudsters who are insider trading and former DOGE staffers. Restitution to be paid back to the American taxpayers for the theft and embezzlement of tax dollars. Anything less that that is a mockery of justice.

Better the USSS watch list than the Epstein list.

lmao, “settled” the say.

If you think the bar can’t go any lower, I’ve got some shocking news for you. The corruption, cronyism, and grifting have only just begun.

That ought to blow over well. Nothing could possibly go wrong with jackboot thugs being asked to manage lines and direct passengers.

Remember folks, be sure to wear your “Fuck ICE” and “Abolish ICE” t-shirts to the airports this week. Be loud and be proud.

Congrats! Glad to hear you are doing better!

I feel like I’m living in a Groundhog Day scenario.

The year is 2018. Donald Trump is somehow president of the United States. He believes paying Iran to not enrich uranium is a waste of money and cancels an Obama-era nuclear deal with them. Iran immediately begins a uranium enrichment program.

The year is 2025. Donald Trump is somehow president of the United States (again). He believes Iran is enriching uranium, and he drops a bomb on the suspected site. Trump claims Iran nuclear capabilities are “obliterated”.

The year is 2026. Donald Trump is somehow president of the United States (still). He believes Iran is enriching uranium (still). He publicly announces plans to strike the suspected site.

So I’m guessing that dropping a bomb on Iran annually will be something you’ll eventually be able to set your watch to. At least while Trump is around.

I hate him.

My dream is to be a homeowner and it’s slipping away faster than I can chase after it.

I fucking hate him so much.

Not enough. They haven’t suffered enough yet.

I was very surprised it won when there were actual innovative games like Mage Arena.

This guy basically just said he doesn’t care what the constitution says, he’s going to do whatever he wants anyway.

I sure wish the idiots on the right would get riled up over literally anything besides the 2nd amendment.

The very first thought that popped into my head when I heard about this was that Trump is so stupid he doesn’t even realize that we haven’t actively used battleships in our naval doctrine since the end of World War 2. Aircraft carriers will always be more versatile, have longer range, and cast a larger sphere of influence than a battleship of any size ever will.

So this is little more than a glorified pet project to stroke Trump’s fragile ego, set to the tune of multiple billions of dollars in R&D and private contracts to his wealthy friends, for a project that will unlikely be done before he leaves office or leaves this mortal coil, whichever comes first.

I expect that if we end this madness and get a Democrat in office, if they have any good sense at all, they’ll cancel the project. However, the damage will be done between now and the next three years. Taxpayer money will be shoveled into this pit and evaporate into the ether.
