🚨🇩🇪 German Chancellor Friedrich Merz Endorses Regime Change in Iran After White House Meeting

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz met President Donald Trump at the White House Tuesday and said Berlin and Washington are “on the same page” regarding the need for regime change in Iran.

He previously said Germany "shares the relief of many Iranians that this mullah regime is now coming to an end" and shares the U.S. interest in stopping its nuclear program.

⭕️ Background: 

During the briefing, Merz chuckled as the level of destruction in Iran was discussed. On concerns over the legality of the strikes, he has previously said he would not “lecture” the U.S. or Israel on their military actions. Trump thanked him today for Germany’s support in the campaign.

In a joint E3 statement, Germany, the UK, and France pledged “necessary and proportionate defensive action” to destroy Iran’s missile and drone capabilities “at their source.” Germany has also responded positively to a request to deploy a warship to Cyprus following Iranian drone attacks on a British base there.

A few weeks ago, we were joking about Ohm’s Law equations. Well, I know how to do those now. I’d forgotten how good it feels to work through something you assumed you’d never understand, to struggle with it for hours, and then finally understand it.

My university was filled with asshole professors who could lecture you about 2,000 years of western philosophy while still taking advantage of young women and, in general, being an absolute shitbag. What's really disturbing is how many Chomskies are out there.

Chomsky’s tête-à-têtes with Epstein seem worse than naïve. They’re obituary-marring. Chomsky may still be an intellectual giant, but his moral giantism is no longer a done deal. trib.al/w299lzt

Imagine what we could accomplish if we actually started protecting each other from airborne diseases and collectively acknowledged that the only way to save the planet was to reduce consumption. It would deflate the oligarchy quite a lot in the process. That would be a real advantage.

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power. The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever. But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

A few weeks ago, one of my best online writer friends (Richard Crim) died from an infection that that might've been "the flu, or Covid." I miss him, and when I see this, it reminds me that what I said a few months ago is true. These people don't care about us, at all.

Christina Applegate tells Jimmy Kimmel, “It might be Covid, I’m just super duper sick and you’re gonna have it." #WTF 🤬 This is why we can't trust anyone. Mask 😷 up. Wear a respirator to avoid infections. Test everyone close to you.
