A video sent by a citizen to Iran International shows that on Saturday, April 29, Basij and IRGC agents of the regime secured the space of one of the parks by deploying a DShK and military and security vehicles.

The funny part about this is that we’re just finding out about this now! I’ve known this for 30 years. The US leadership has known it for longer. Now ask yourself why they didn’t do anything about it until Trump?
But… Muh Peak Oil! EROEI (Cue the Steve St. Angelo and the Chris Martenson!)
Truth is folks, technology keeps pace with Human Action. That’s why the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility is a LAW, not a postulate.
The technology to pull oil and gas out of the ground will only improve when the old technology is no longer profitable. Then Capex gets deployed, new methods are put into play, and cost of production steadies.
In inflation-adjusted terms Oil is as cheap as it was in the 1970’s +/- 20%. Even during “Crises” like these.
When you factor in efficiency gains from other technology, that make the barrel of oil equivalent go farther in advancing Human Action, oil is stupidly cheap compared to the past.
That’s reality. Malthus is always wrong. Doomcasters are grifters. Humanity rocks. If you hate humanity enough to believe the Panicans, doomsters, and terrorists that have sucked the joy out of life, that’s between you, the guy in the mirror, whatever god you worship, and your therapist.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

U.S. Oil & Gas:
The U.S. sits on 46 billion barrels of proved crude oil reserves, with 60% of that locked in dense underground rock.
The Permian Basin, which stretches across West Texas and southeastern New Mexico, pumps out 6.6 million barrels a day on its own, more than every OPEC country except Saudi Arabia.
Zoom out, and the U.S. is the single largest oil producer on the planet at 13.6 million barrels a day, out-producing both Russia (9.1M) and Saudi Arabia (9.3M).
On natural gas, it isn't close:
America produced a record 43.2 trillion cubic feet in 2025, roughly a quarter of the world's supply and more than Russia and Iran combined.
The U.S. sits on world-class reserves and out-produces every petrostate.

Why?
Because it did not serve the interests of Progressive politicians and their supporters...is pretty straightforward. Is why DJT never gets the traction he needs from Congress - it does not serve their interests and they simply rope-a-dope for 3,4 years.

How? I thought they are decimated.
A few small boats obviously remain; stop being a dipshit.

Is the ceasefire over?
I would assume when the Iranian fast boats shot missiles at a tanker that violated the ceasefire...
Time to light em up.

The rebuke of Iran’s foreign minister has now reached the front lines.
IRGC Navy personnel are openly mocking Foreign Minister Araghchi over maritime radio, saying the Strait of Hormuz “is still closed” and “we will open it by the order of our leader, not by the tweets of some idiot.”
They added that “all vessels connected to our enemies will be targeted” if they attempt to pass.

Supporting and sending soldiers and terrorists to other countries is invading them, pencil dick
That is a definition. And if that is your definition, fine. By your definition, the United States has invaded 40 or 50 countries in my lifetime. That's not my definition, though.

2 ships fired upon were reported.
It`s obvious now that there is no regime organized leadership calling the shots.
Who is Trump going to negotiate with when there is no leader calling the shots?

Donald Trump @POTUS appears to have deepened divisions within Iran’s power structure, between those who favor compromise and those who want to keep fighting. This is increasingly visible on the streets of Tehran, where more checkpoints, growing mistrust, and fears of a coup are shaping daily life, according to sources inside the city.

Negotiate? This entire play has been an exercise in creativity fostering division and mistrust within the IRGC. In my opinion, the internal fracture will ultimately bloodshed among the different factions of the IRGC.
They will destroy themselves.

Yes I can see that and it looks like they wont have a leader that can control the actions of all of their military any time soon if ever.
Drill baby drill, bomb baby bomb and continue to strangle off their revenue.
