Euro-Globalists Meet in Paris To ‘Discuss’ the Strait of Hormuz, But Iran Has Already Opened the Waterway, and Trump Discards the Participation of the ‘Paper Tigers’

Geopolitical midgets Macron, Merz, and Starmer are again getting trolled by Trump
‘Useless’ allies not needed anymore, says Trump.
Be it in the Russia-Ukraine war – where they want it to continue for as long as possible – or in the US military confrontation with Iran – where they betrayed their main NATO ally – one thing you can always expect from Euro-Globalist failing leaders: meetings – lots of meetings.

The delusional European ‘powers’ make purely symbolic decisions that yield no practical outcome.
The current cast of Globalist leaders shares one thing in common: dismal poll numbers and historic levels of voter rejection.
So, they try to gain some clout by meddling in foreign issues as much as possible.
And that’s how they find themselves ridiculously discussing the opening of Hormuz AFTER it is already opened by Iran.

The result was inevitable: they got told off by Donald J. Trump yet again, treated as ‘useless’.
The Telegraph reported:
“Mr. Trump has again lashed out at Nato allies after the announcement that the Strait of Hormuz would be reopened.
The US president suggested that European nations and others should ‘stay away’ from the region ‘unless they just want to load up their ships with oil’.”

“He said: ‘Now that the Hormuz Strait situation is over, I received a call from Nato asking if we would need some help. I TOLD THEM TO STAY AWAY, UNLESS THEY JUST WANT TO LOAD UP THEIR SHIPS WITH OIL’.
‘They were useless when needed, a Paper Tiger’.”
LMAO! President Trump says NATO just called him offering to help with the Strait of Hormuz — MINUTES AFTER he and the Iranians announced its full reopening
And President Trump told them to GET LOST
What a USELESS organization

Trump 2020 Election Lawyer John Eastman Disbarred in California For Challenging Democrat Fraud

President Trump’s 2020 election lawyer John Eastman was officially disbarred in Californian on Wednesday.
The California Supreme Court affirmed that Eastman was disbarred after a two-year battle with the state bar.
CBS News reported:
John Eastman, Chapman Law School’s former dean, lost his law license after he allegedly helped President Trump try to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia.
“After extensive proceedings before the State Bar Court’s Hearing and Review Departments, both of which found Mr. Eastman culpable of serious ethical violations, the Court has imposed the discipline warranted by the clear and convincing evidence that he advanced false claims about the 2020 presidential election to mislead courts, public officials, and the American public,” said State Bar Chief Trial Counsel George Cardona.
The California Supreme Court affirmed Eastman’s disbarment two years after the State Bar found him culpable of 10 disciplinary charges, claiming he engaged in misconduct by allegedly helping Trump try to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia.
Eastman was disbarred in April 2024 after a judge ruled he should have his law license stripped for challenging the 2020 election.
John Eastman previously asked a California judge to pause the disbarment ruling, citing massive legal fees.
Eastman faced disbarment in California for ‘undermining democracy’ by trying to ‘overturn the presidential election.’
The January 6 Committee sent the feds after John Eastman because he dared to take action against the Democrats and their massive election fraud operation in 2020.
Recall, Eastman was previously ambushed by the FBI as he was exiting a restaurant in New Mexico.
John Eastman was exiting a restaurant with his wife and friend in June 2022 when FBI agents ambushed him and “forced” him to unlock his phone.
The federal agents then took Eastman’s iPhone 12 Pro.

Eastman was also indicted by Fani Willis and charged with counts 1-2 (RICO and Solicitation of Violation of Oath by Public Officer), 9 (Conspiracy to Commit Impersonating a Public Officer), 11 (Conspiracy to Commit Forgery in the First Degree), 13 (Conspiracy to Commit False Statements), 15 (Conspiracy to Commit Filing False Documents), 17 (Conspiracy to Commit Forgery in the First Degree), 19 (Conspiracy to Commit False Statements and Writings), 27 (Filing False Documents).
On Wednesday, two years after Eastman challenged his disbarment, the California Supreme Court affirmed he lost his law license.
The California Supreme Court sent a clear and terrorizing message:
If attorneys represent disfavored political candidates who challenge disputed elections, California will disbar them.
While this happens in failed third-world countries, this should never happen in America. https://t.co/AuMtAULoIy

Mamdani Condemns NYPD Officers After Chaotic Arrest Video Goes Viral


New York City Democratic Mayor Zohran Mamdani condemned two NYPD officers after a chaotic arrest video out of Brooklyn went viral online.
The footage showed a violent struggle between two officers and a suspect inside a liquor store.
The incident occurred on Tuesday at a store in Brooklyn, according to a report from WNYW.
A source told the outlet that the officers were attempting to arrest a man they suspected of being involved in a drug deal.
The situation escalated quickly when the man repeatedly resisted arrest.
Video from the scene showed officers repeatedly punching the suspect in an effort to get him to the ground.
Warning: The following video contains vulgar language and violence that may be disturbing to some viewers.
This incident was captured by Sinistratm on Instagram and took place April 14, 2026 in Brooklyn at a liquor store on Hoyt and Baltic street.

The lengthy video ended with the suspect being escorted out of the store in handcuffs.
The NYPD has since placed both officers on modified duty.
New York City Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch confirmed the move during a news conference on Wednesday.
She said the department’s Internal Affairs Bureau is reviewing the incident.
Tisch added that more information will be released as the investigation unfolds.
Mamdani, a socialist who supported the “defund the police” movement, weighed in on the video.
He shared the footage and issued a sharp condemnation of the officers, presumably without having all the facts.
“The violence used by NYPD officers in this video is extremely disturbing and unacceptable,” Mamdani wrote.
The violence used by NYPD officers in this video is extremely disturbing and unacceptable. Officers should never treat a person this way. The NYPD is conducting a full investigation into this incident. https://t.co/zdQllljhyh
— Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani (@NYCMayor) April 15, 2026
“Officers should never treat a person this way. The NYPD is conducting a full investigation into this incident,” he added.
His comments quickly drew pushback.
The New York City Police Benevolent Association criticized Mamdani for speaking out before the investigation is complete, WNYW reported.
The organization’s president, Patrick Hendry, said the mayor had rushed to judge the cops.
“We don’t know why the mayor is bothering to call for an investigation when he has already rushed to condemn the NYPD members involved without knowing all the facts,” Hendry said.

Iranians Have an Obscene Nickname for British PM Starmer: REPORT

Starmer’s Iranian nickname makes a lot of sense in English, too
Is Starmer really a ‘kir’?
Failing British Prime Minister probably has been called worse, but Persian speakers around the world have a new, choice nickname for him.
In Iran and among the diaspora, Starmer is unable to avoid a rather unfortunate nickname.

The Telegraph reported:
“To millions of Persian speakers, his first name sounds remarkably similar to a vulgar term for a penis. The word کیر – transliterated as “kir” – is one of the language’s most commonly used obscenities.
The linguistic similarity, long noted by Iranian diaspora communities, has sparked a wave of mockery on social media since the outbreak of the Iran war.”
The United Kingdom has endlessly appeased the criminal regime in Iran. The Prime Minister speaks of protecting the innocent civilians of Iran but failed to act to help stop the regime’s massacre of 40,000 innocent Iranians in January.
Only an end to this regime – that brings… https://t.co/zseMopIsW6

Starmer’s passivity during the Iran military clashes let Iranian diaspora users fuming.
“’From his name, you can tell what kind of man he is’, one user wrote on X. While the joke predates the Iran war, the volume increased in the past month, and peaked this week when Sir Keir declared that Britain would not take part in any blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
The Prime Minister’s widely shared statement prompted an immediate eruption of jokes online, with many Persian speakers referring to him as ‘Kir Starmer’.”
Prick Starmer.
