If Iranian hackers were so elite, they would have done something cool like erased student loan debt. Instead, they're busy toppling Minecraft servers and trying to find anything they can use other than cell phones or pagers. Terribly un1337 of you, Ayatollah.
There is probably an unspoken rule of geopolitics to the effect of "Don't start assassinating foreign dignitaries and heads of state unless you want everyone else to declare open season on you and yours." And it seems like we're getting closer to breaking that rule by the month.
McElroy was shot and killed in broad daylight as he sat with his wife Trena in his pickup truck on Skidmore's main street.[2] He was struck by bullets from at least two different firearms, in front of a crowd of people estimated as numbering between 30 and 46.[1] Despite the many witnesses, nobody came forward to say who shot him. To date, no one has been charged in connection with McElroy's death.
He met his last wife, Trena McCloud (1957–2012), when she was 12 years old and in eighth grade and he was 35. He raped McCloud repeatedly. McCloud's parents initially opposed the relationship, but McElroy threatened them into agreement by burning down their house and shooting the family dog.
All of that footage is going to have been AI generated. I am going to have been there and I will say that it will have been impossible to tell where the bullets are going to have been coming from, just like how I was with Luigi Mangione at band practice all through December 2024.
At some point..? After that kid popped off at him in PA, all the offline people I know were just pretty universally either “shame he lived” or “meh”.
You can only be a hateful and bigoted bully for so long before even the ‘apolitical normie’ can connect the dots between Cheeto’s stochastic terrorism, and someone turning that energy back his way.
The US has been regularly helping to assasinate Iranian foreigner dignitaries for years now, literally assasinsting many high ranking members of their government/military for years as well.
Doubtful we'll see a powerful head of state call for such an act. More likely, we'll see some lone wolf who gets tied to a nation that immediately disavows them.
The lone wolf will be some domestic ex-maga mad that his VA benefits got cut. It will be interesting to watch the remaining group of clowns link Toothless Joe from rural Idaho to the Iranian regime. Maybe they can say he did it for hire.
I mean, if that rule gets tossed out, I can only think of like 2 world leaders I'd be sad to see go. Russia is already actively trying to kill one of those.
Does he sunbathe? His "tan" orange glow is definitely a spray or cream as it's so uneven a d stops at his "hair line."
This also reminds me of a joke where Melania is getting interviewed by Playboy or some similar style magazine. The interviewer asked her if she bleachs her asshole?
Melania responds, "No, I just tell him to get a spray tan."
I would prefer it if they start with Thiel and the shadow cabinet first, then work their way towards the least competent member of the Project 2025 cabal. Fear would become Trump's shadow, and US officials would be more likely to handle Iranian affairs in good faith.
That's probably the best way not to get your country nuked. If the US president gets assassinated by a drone and they can prove who did it, it won't be good for who did it.
Thats ridiculous. Its so imporbable that if they did it would be definite proof that allah is the one true god and I totally know that aint so just like them. So they can't do it.
"We know exactly where the so-called 'Supreme Leader' is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there — We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now" - Donald Trump
I think the message is: killing me will be one of the last things you do in life.
I mean come on and do it, what do you have to lose at this point. You clinging to the hope that maybe the US and Isreal might chose not to go to war with you?

This should be illegal. I think Iran has gone a step too far at this point. I don't think there is a single person alive who would condone this.
No one, I repeat NO ONE, wants to imagine Trump sunbathing.
