Iran and Chuck Schumer Are About to Be Destroyed

The two most famous swords in world history have the same thing in common: They probably weren’t real.

Excalibur, the legendary blade of King Arthur, was purportedly stuck in a stone. Beneath it was the inscription: “Whoso pulleth out this stone and anvil, is rightwise king born of all England.”

So one day, a precocious kid named Arthur yanked it out — instantly becoming the new king. Which meant, of course, that there was now a big stone with a sword-sized hole on the top. It probably became a tourist attraction: The locals could've jammed a cheap, plastic sword into the hole and charged visitors a nickel to remove it. “Look at me, Marge, I’m the new king of England!”

Without question, Excalibur is the world’s most famous sword. The runner-up is probably the Sword of Damocles.

Thing is, it wasn’t Damocles’ sword. It belonged to Dionysius I of Syracuse, the tyrant king of Sicily.

Dionysius was a real bad dude. He was a lowly clerk who worked his way up to all-powerful dictator. Ancient historians considered him the cruelest and bloodiest leader of his day. (In Dante’s “Inferno,” his eternal resting place is a river of boiling blood.)

Anyway, a guy named Damocles visited King Dionysius I, flattering him and telling the king how fortunate he was. Surprisingly, Dionysius I offered to switch places with Damocles: He’d let the visitor sit on his throne and live the regal life.

Soooo...I’ve had my tin hat on of-late. A bit of that below:

I’ve been watching this for some time and fail to grasp why I’m alone. Maybe I’m crazy, but a plot seems afoot. Call it the “Schumer Gambit” for lack of a better term.

Clearly Schumer is embroiled in what – at least simply & publicly – appears to be a dem civil war as they struggle with relevancy. This PJM piece somewhat supports that notion.

This whole thing is being bandied about in the media as ‘turncoat’ and a ‘Trump victory’ but I have a different view:

Much to the chagrin of die-hards - ahem - I believe POTUS was baited into backing the CR to get it passed in Congress and that they fell for it hook, line & sinker. Or, perhaps, maybe he’s resigned to prioritizing national security threats, just as I would postulate from a sitting Commander in Chief who supports the Constitution & Republic 100% (in contrast to recent examples). Regardless, as the dems are playing checkers Schumer was the fall guy to stick the plot. It’s EXACTLY what ‘they’ wanted, which served 2 (at a minimum) purposes:

1. Continued funding levels, which denotes that DOGE has yet to find the ‘city of gold’ (and/or, perhaps, to fund urgent military action),
2. Changing of the guard in a Congress which ‘they’ control completely to serve their midterm interests pursuant to 2028 under the guise of what we now see in the media (’they’ will stop at nothing to prevent Vance from ‘28 victory).

If you parse the reports carefully, AOC has been thrust into the limelight as they chum the waters for dem reactions. Expect more with other faces/names. This pattern has only just begun.

But what the left might never have expected is DJT throwing fire at the houthis after directly threatening hamas (empty threats to-date, btw...TWICE). The houthis attacks are obviously a message to Iran, as well as the alleged (unconfirmed) sinking of their SIGINT ship Zagros under the cloud of renewed hostilities in Gaza (which should never have ceased, but I digress).

THEN we have DJT statements posted here which seem to be preparing the public - and his supporters - for military action (e.g., https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4305197/posts).

I don’t like the word ‘feel’, so this SMELLS like something big is afoot, and also smells like it’s not of neocon origin, but of genuine national security concerns, no different than the effective border actions.

If one considers that the Israelis could (likely) never have prosecuted years of sabotage and ground surveillance within Iran absent direct support from friendly Iranians opposed to the mullahs, long game strategy suggests that the Israelis - with or without US support - have been secretly fomenting a new era of uprising within Iran as they hedge their bets against their greatest threat (and as we continue to ignore ours living comfortably in Martha’s Vineyard).

It ‘smells’ like POTUS has inserted directly into this strategy - perhaps planned all along in the event of his election success - and now he also holds all the cards for secretly negotiating a favorable position of Russian acquiescence to US/Israeli action against Iran’s mullahs in support of the Iranian people, something I never thought possible, and a sure way to shut down their nuclear ambitions absent major conflict.

The coming weeks should prove quite interesting...
