Anyone else think he's doing this to get the media to not cover how his Big Beautiful Bill is a failure?

I would say yes, but i don't think he's smart enough to think of that. I think it's more likely he got FOMO from watching Fox News and seeing Israel attacking.

I genuinely don’t buy it. Trump is great at distracting the media and driving the news cycle without making a politically risky decision like this (with his first resistance from parts of his MAGA base). I’m not saying that he wouldn’t do all kinds of shenanigans to change the news cycle/move on from unflattering or bad news for him, but this doesn’t strike me as the easy candidate he would be likely to employ.

I dont buy it either, plus Trump knows “his” Congress will ultimately pass the bill.

I don't know. What happened Saturday makes passage of the bill significantly less likely.

ETA -- A number of influential MAGAs are calling Saturday the end of Trump 2.0's domestic agenda. That may be a little much, but I do think his ability to shape domestic policy has been massively neutered.

Oh, Trump & Putin on a call today working out the next phase of Trump 2.0 TV: The Iranian - Ukranian connection.

Coming to shiny object CNN broadcasts near you.

I hope so, but fear otherwise.

That does make sense. I didn’t know it was closer. I stand corrected.

They just refueled in Guam. The Pacific journey is much farther than across southern Asia.

However, no one was fooled. Trump simply wants everyone to believe it, and not worry about the fissile material "leaving the building."
 
If Iran starts the ceasefire, and then Israel waits 12 hours before it starts its ceasefire, does that mean that Israel has 12 hours to bomb Iran?

You guys have been making “end of the world” predictions for 5 months. At some point you might want to consider admitting that Trump knows what he’s doing, at least on some issues. Iran respects strength and power.

Obama/Biden’s approach to Iran was to appease, give them pallets of cash and allow their oil to be sold.

Markets are going to soar.
