🔴 Iran’s Leadership Rift Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi is facing harsh criticism in Iran over yesterday’s talks with US representatives. Iranian state media published numerous critical articles today. Western media reported that Iran was ready to reopen the Strait of Hormuz quickly if the US made “some concessions.” FARS, close to the IRGC, later denied this. This happens often. Moderates tell Western media one thing, then IRGC hardliners deny it. Trump says Iran’s leadership is in complete disarray, while experts say actual power remains with the IRGC, which supports total war against the US and Israel. ✅@futures

You stop executing your system and start gambling to achieve the goal before the deadline. The irony? The more you chase money, the further it runs. But here’s the shift: Trade without goals. Operate with standards. ✅@futures

Pounds created a registry to track anti-war activists and said authorities had everything from the NoBlogs servers.
