Senate Homeland Security Chairman Rand Paul supports President Donald Trump's peace negotiations with Iran, noting the deal could benefit American consumers and farmers.

He emphasizes that diplomacy is key and the removal of uranium is easily verifiable, potentially through direct assistance from the U.S.

I gave up caring what Paul thinks a long time ago. He’s usually wrong.

Paul approves the Iran deal.

Paul is usually wrong.

Does that suggest something about the Iran deal?

If Paul thinks the removal of uranium is “easily verifiable” then he’s more delusional than usual.

I have heard reports of gigantic solar flare emissions.
Some believe these affect human behavior.

June 3, 2026....
A notable series of strong X-class and high-end M-class solar flares recently erupted from sunspot region AR4455. This highly active region produced several large eruptions, including a strong X1.0-class solar flare, and a trio of consecutive large flares that triggered brief radio blackouts and sparked mid-latitude auroras.
—NASA website.

Old joke about them:
In signs they affect human behavior, there were reports men got together to spend the whole day shopping and having lunch and women stayed home to watch the games.

I think once the actual DEAL is released we can all come to a conclusion about whether if its good or not. Problem is NO ONE has seen it yet its basically “Well a source inside the White House told me” or “My best friends sisters brother knows someone at the White House who told me” just release the deal, I think Trump teased today making a video and reading it word for word, GREAT, do it..once its all out in the open we can decide for ourselves if its a good deal or not

Don’t ping to people who aren’t on a thread and who haven’t asked to be on your ping list.

“You see, it can happen. Positive pieces.”

Rand Paul will come out in less than one week to denounce this plan. And he’ll wait about three days to get everyone’s attention first

If this doesn’t happen, it would be the first time Rand Paul didn’t do such a thing after agreeing with Trump then disagreeing, in all media, with headlines, pointing out some imagined and exaggerated Trump flaw

You know this and I know this and I know that you know this.

All this does is make me concerned that the MOU is favorable to Rand Paul’s masters in Tehran.

The people of Iran still hate the regime. It is not legitimate. It is run by the few who have imposed their evil religion on everyone else. It is like an irresistible force running into an immovable object . Who eventually wins? The regime murdered the top of the effective resistance . Do we have to wait for a new generation of rebels for them to win or are there still enough survivors to take down the regime?

All intelligence and even the Iranians agree that the stockpile is 460hg. Are you suggesting we don’t know how to weigh it? Are you suggesting if we get boxes of lead instead of refined uranium we won’t know it?

What are you suggesting Paul is delusional about. Cause you honestly have me utterly confused.

"noting the deal could benefit American consumers and farmers."

Considering this an important factor for dealing with Iran means not understanding the danger the country poses.
