  3. #Iran says the war runs "until #DonaldTrump is out…"

    Just like #IranHostageCrisis that began in 1979 ended the day #Reagan was inaugurated on Jan 20, 1981.

    Just like Iran's #AxisOfResistance claimed #Biden & #KamalaHarris re-election bid.

    "#Trump confirmed the decoy-plane switch and blamed Secret Service for it…" #DanScavino, #WaltNauta, & #NatalieHarp rode out in a catering truck with him, while they decided to sacrifice #MarcoRubio, #ScottBessent, and #StephenMiller

  4. RE: mastodon.social/@RonSupportsYo

    When I voted for Jimmy Carter for president in 1976 I never thought he would be this weak. He was clumsily trying to end the #IranHostageCrisis with Iran but people who worked for him, such as Ambassador William Sullivan, were insulting him without being fired. His State Department and his National Security Council had different foreign policies: one was pro-Russia and the other was pro-China when Russians and Chinese hated each other.

  5. I shut off #FnS after they brought on The Cryptkeeper Sen. Rick Scott declaring "They [#Iran] have been killing us for 47 years." 🙄

    He is, of course, referring to the #IranHostageCrisis in 1979 to justify bombing the country today [47 years later.]

    On that basis, expect #DementiaDon to start bombing Germany & Japan again any day now. #JFC

  8. Unseasonably warm weather here on the front range of CO.
    Watching a “60 minutes overtime” about the Shah & Ayotola from shortly before the #IranHostageCrisis
    Hubs knows all about it & is generous in answering my questions…. Quite informative.
    These are the news segments I crave. I grew up with this kind of informative news segments.
    We need something better than the #FairnessDoctrine
    This show is on CBS news national or CBS news Miami.
    I will do other stuff, too.

  9. ‘View’ co-host praises former boss Trump for ‘massive diplomatic achievement’ in hostage deal

    Was the October Surprise Treason? Craig Unger’s Den of Spies

  11. #RIPJimmyCarter -- #Humanitarian #ClimateChangePioneer #NiceGuy. My late grandmother volunteered to get him elected and worked on his re-election campaign, and said he was the only decent human being to run for the office. We both thought he had been set up by the #GOP -- and it turns out, we may have been right!

    New claim about #IranHostageCrisis sabotage may change narrative of #Carter presidency

    Mar 20, 2023

    "In the summer of 1980, a prominent Republican close to #RonaldReagan's campaign sought to sabotage then-President Jimmy Carter's reelection by asking #MiddleEastern leaders to get a message to the #Iranians: Keep the American #hostages until after the election, and the Reagan administration will give you a better deal.

    "That stunning reporting this weekend by The New York Times is prompting a rethinking of presidential history."

  12. #Iran built up its #AxisOfResistance — a regional military alliance — over 4 decades since the #IranHostageCrisis in 1979 ➡️ mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/1

    Iran has fought #America and #Israel for 4 decades using its Axis of Resistance as a #proxy without entering into direct conflict with either

    "Its leaders are not suicidal, they want to stay in power"

    For the FIRST time in 4 decades though, Iran has mobilized on #multipleFronts at the same time ➡️ mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/1

  13. WHO HERE HONESTLY BELIEVES that "No Labels" isn't a republican-paid concern-trolling project for 2024 electoral sabotage? they've been doing this since, at the very least 1980.

    SILENT MAJORITY

    MORAL MAJORITY

    SWIFT BOAT VETERANS

    TEA PARTY

    WOMEN AGAINST HILLARY

    these are just some of the names that come to mind

    this is the republican fascists modus operandi.

    and let me put it out there: do not be shocked if we get another #IranHostageCrisis next year

    GOP are re-litigating the 70s

  14. @jackhutton
    At the time of the Iran Hostage Crisis I worked at the Federal Reserve Board. Since the US froze Iran’s US bank accounts, the Fed was in on the release negotiations, including a few of my colleagues. I remember in Fall 1980, one came back from an overseas negotiation & told me that the hostages wouldn’t be released until Inauguration day. I wondered if there was an agreement why wait the extra months?
    Now the picture has come into focus.

  15. Here in Texas this was an open secret.

    A Four-Decade Secret: One Man’s Story of Sabotaging Carter’s Re-election
