The deal being floated with Iran seems straight out of the Wendy Sherman-Robert Malley-Ben Rhodes playbook: Pay the IRGC to build a WMD program and terrorize the world.

Not remotely America First. It’s straightforward: Open the damned strait. Deny Iran access to money. Take out enough Iranian capability so it cannot threaten our allies in the region.

Overdue. Let’s go.

BREAKING: Iran directly rejects Trump's claim that Hormuz "will be opened" as part of a "largely negotiated" agreement he just posted on Truth Social, saying Trump's claim is "far from the truth" and that Hormuz "will remain under Iranian management" with Iran retaining exclusive permanent authority over route, timing, method, and permits, per Fars.

Iran also confirms the nuclear file has not been discussed and that American officials themselves have told Iran in multiple messages that "Trump's tweets are primarily for domestic American propaganda and media consumption" and "should be disregarded." The "largely negotiated" deal claim therefore has no basis.

I’ve had enough. I’m over supporting Trump. This entire deal is a complete embarrassment to this country. Impeach him and get Vance in there.

I am floored he has been fooled by his Son in Law again.

Mid terms are over.

No attack is coming. Trump’s military advisors are frustrated with the lack of inaction. War was a waste, and unfortunately I’ve lost faith in Trump as a result.

I’m not alone in these thoughts.

Archaeologists were stunned after recently discovering one of the greatest works of Western literature placed on top of a mummy in Egypt.

The one-of-a-kind discovery was announced by the University of Barcelona in an April 20 news release.

Researchers from the school uncovered a fragment of Homer’s “Iliad” while excavating a Roman-era tomb in the Egyptian town of Al Bahnasa.

The tomb is located in the Al Bahnasa necropolis, once part of ancient Oxyrhynchus, which school officials said was “one of the most important cities of Greco-Roman Egypt.”

The University of Barcelona’s Oxyrhynchus Archaeological Mission has excavated the necropolis since 1992.

The Roman-era tomb and mummy date back roughly 1,600 years.

The “Iliad,” an epic poem that centers around the Trojan War, is believed to have been composed around the 8th century B.C., more than a millennium before the mummy was buried.

Led by University of Barcelona professor Núria Castellano, excavators found that the papyrus was “placed on the abdomen [of the mummy] as part of the embalming ritual,” the school said in a statement.

“In previous campaigns, the Oxyrhynchus Archaeological Mission had already documented papyri written in Greek in similar positions, but all contained magical or ritualistic content,” the release noted.

“A literary text such as the ‘Iliad’ had never before been found in this context.”

The fragment comes from Book II of the “Iliad” and describes the Greek forces preparing for the Trojan War.

The text was identified by papyrologist Leah Mascia.

Ignasi-Xavier Adiego, a professor at the University of Barcelona, emphasized that previously found papyri had “mainly magical” content.

“Since the late 19th century, a huge number of papyri have been discovered at Oxyrhynchus, including Greek literary texts of great importance,” he said.

“But the real novelty is finding a literary papyrus in a funerary context.”

During the excavation, archaeologists also uncovered Roman-era mummies and decorated wooden sarcophagi inside three limestone burial chambers, with the school noting damage from past looting.

But officials said the Homer fragment was the most notable — and they emphasized its rarity.

“The discovery is exceptional: It is the first time in the history of archaeology that a Greek literary text has been found deliberately incorporated into the mummification process,” the school noted.
