Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!! Ta-CO!!

Folded just as one folds that classic of Mexican cooking we all know and love.

Unfortunately, this taco tastes like a disgusting mixture of Rapture Juice, Essence of Extortion and Grade A bullshit.

TACO strikes again



https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-2-week-ceasefire-iran-delaying-bombing/?ftag=CNM-00-10aab7e&linkId=927634744

President Trump said Tuesday he has agreed to a "double sided CEASEFIRE" with Iran, less than two hours before his deadline for Iran to either cut a deal with the U.S. or face massive strikes on its power plants.

"I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks," the president wrote on Truth Social.

He said the agreement, brokered by Pakistan, was "subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz."

5. "Subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz."

In other words, the Strait of Hormuz will be open again, exactly like it was before Trump kicked off his illegal war...started because he claimed Iran's nuclear program posed an immediate threat to the U.S....a threat that had been eliminated by Obama - with the help of China, Russia, France, Germany, Britain and the European Union - years ago.

From MS NOW: "On May 8, 2018, Trump pulled the United States out of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, the multinational deal to restrict and monitor Iran’s nuclear program that was painstakingly negotiated and finalized in mid-2015, with the help of China, Russia, France, Germany, Britain and the European Union. Trump’s own advisers then, including Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Defense Secretary James Mattis, had pleaded with him not to abandon the agreement, arguing that it was keeping Iran’s nuclear ambitions in check. But Trump killed it, claiming that the Iranian regime would quickly come crawling back and give in. 'They are going to want to make a new and lasting deal,' he said. But no new agreement ever materialized."

The only way to do it is to get him out of the White House for good. Lock his ugly fat ass up in a rubber room.

4. The TACO Trade was predictable

I opened small positions in crypto, short oil, long Micron after 3pm today. Should have made them bigger, but you just never know.

Oil futures are down $14 right now, and US markets will open 2% or more higher.

This ceasefire is not real. Trump is playing the American people for idiots.
