Super Vest

Vice President JD Vance on Thursday attempted to justify the continued US-Israeli war against Iran by implying that Iran could potentially turn a nuclear bomb into a suicide vest, a claim not grounded in reality. – antiwar.com

Yes, these a-holes think you are that dumb that you’ll believe this bucket of horseshit.  Sadly, a lot of people will.

Vance made the claim during a cabinet meeting while discussing military and diplomatic “options” that the US has regarding the conflict with Iran. He has continued to portray the war as being necessary to prevent Iran from making a nuclear weapon, though there was no evidence that Tehran had decided to build a bomb either before the June 2025 war or the current war that was launched on February 28.

“What we have now that we didn’t have when the president took over, just a little over a year ago, is the ability to use every tool at our disposal to ensure that Iran doesn’t get a nuclear weapon,” Vance said.

“Because when I say options, I think it’s important the American people know options for what? And it’s options to ensure that Iran never has a nuclear weapon,” the vice president added. “You talk about people who walk into a crowded supermarket and have a vest on, and they blow up the vest and a couple of people get killed, and that’s a terrible tragedy. What happens when what’s on the vest is not something that can kill a couple of people, but can kill many, many tens of thousands of people?”

I keep anxiously waiting to wake up at any moment, dusted into the next life in a millisecond by these demons’ bombs, with St. Peter or one of his representatives trying to explain why it was necessary for me to have lived amongst the shittiest and most willfully stupid beings ever to take a breath.

A nuclear bomb could not be miniaturized to the point where it could be worn as a vest, and if Vance was alluding to a “dirty bomb” that uses some nuclear material, such a weapon at that size would not cause tens of thousands of casualties. Plus, in recent decades, the overwhelming majority of suicide bombings in the region were carried out by Sunni Muslim extremists, not Iran and its Shia allies.

Before the US and Israel launched the war, Vance became one of the leading voices in the administration, making the claim that the coming conflict was about preventing Iran from developing a nuclear bomb, contradicting President Trump’s insistence that US airstrikes in June 2025 “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear program. At one point, Vance even claimed there was evidence Iran was trying to “rebuild a nuclear weapon,” something Iran has never had.

I’m sure it has nothing to do with the madman’s plans for thousands of US Marines and US Army Airborne appearing to be on their way to the Middle East.  I mean they wouldn’t have any more ideas of sending more sons and daughters….and parents off to die in yet another needless war, right?

And if you need a good laugh, and that’s all one can do anymore is laugh at these assholes… Dumpy’s signature will be appearing on U.S. currency later this year.

WASHINGTON, March 26 (Reuters) – U.S. paper currency will bear ‌President Donald Trump’s signature starting this summer, the first time a sitting president has signed American money, the Treasury Department said on Thursday.

The redesigned notes, planned to mark the 250th anniversary of American independence, will also for the first time in 165 years drop the signature of the ​U.S. treasurer, who reports to the Treasury Secretary and oversees the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, the U.S. ​Mint and other Treasury functions.

Fitting!  As some believe the U.S. is insolvent!

Easy to have missed that one as the media didn’t report on it.  Surprise!
