The SCOTUS has declined to hear adjudicated rapist Donald Trump's appeal of the finding that he raped E. Jean Carroll.
Indeed: https://www.cnbc.com/2026/06/29/supreme-court-trump-carroll-appeal.html
"The Supreme Court on Monday said it would not hear an appeal by President Donald Trump of a New York federal court jury’s verdict awarding the writer E. Jean Carroll $5 million for having been sexually abused and defamed by Trump."

All while major economies are running out of oil reserves.

You mean Iran attacks and US responds. Why do people keep framing this like Iran isn’t the one walking the dogs? Because its Trump that decides to attack after markets close on friday and Trump who claims there is a peace deal before markets open on monday.
Plus the whole fact that this is a war of aggression by the US, and Iran is the defending party here. And the US is the one that wants a peace deal to get out of this.

The real state of affairs is much more balanced than screeching voices in the popular media would have you believe.

A lawmaker supporting the law on the books at the time does not a criminal make.
Trump is actively breaking the Foreign Emoluments Clause on a daily basis and him and his family are very obviously accepting bribes in order to influence his goverment, there are laws against that, unfortunately, the SC has made it so that Trump is immune from all of it, but he is still a criminal and a head of a massive crime family profiting every which way they can from his presidency. Well, nothing really happened when people found out the Supreme Court was taking bribes, so it's only fair for them to share the privilege. Or had their wife at Jan 6th, messaging the White House chief of staff or being directly involved in post-election lobbying to overturn it. Since all the cases were thoroughly rebuked by the lower courts it didn't come to SCOTUS hearing the 2020 "case", but in one aspect that they did rule on, ability of Congress to request WH tapes regarding it the sole dissenting voice was, well, take a wild guess.
"Pay no attention to the genocidal expansionism and unprecedented corruption behind the...wait, what the hell happened to the curtain!? Nobody bid on the contract for the curtain, did they?".

They attacked after Iran baited them too by sending 4 one way drones. You continuing to ignore what is actually happening to fit your narrative is what you claim to be mad at the other side for doing.

Iran sent drones because they were attacked. They were attacked because they struck a tanker. They struck a tanker because it tried to pass through Iran's sovereign strait without coordinating with the IRGC and getting the appropriate permissions.

Yes, I’m talking about the 4 drones sent at the tanker with one hitting that led to the American attacks, which led to more Iranian done attacks.
Then my editorial is the US gave them more to stop. Since that’s been the cycle so far.
