This Carbon Based Life

By David Glenn Cox

Mr. Witkoff and Mr. Son in law are on their way to Islamabad. The Iranians have made it abundantly clear they won’t deal with the king’s jr. bagmen. They’re speaking to the Vice President or nothing, as a matter of political respect. So sending a couple of the king’s slimy tentacles is wholly unacceptable. They’re thieves, not politicians. I know the career paths are close in nature, but somehow differently intended. So after the Iranians made it clear, the administration announced, “We’re sending that nice Mr. Son in law and the whole Scooby doo shakedown crew.”

It could have been intended as an insult, or maybe the US side is just that dense. The Iranian side reiterated they’re not coming. Offering only; if the American side has anything new which they wish to communicate. They can do so through third-party intermediaries. Translation: “If you’ve got something new to say, tell the man at the door. If not, fuck off.” Meanwhile, back in the fractured reality of the American media, reports the non-meetings, not arranged in Islamabad, as all arranged and ready to proceed on time.

According to state media, it’s all arranged. Wow! Does that look like a setup trap or what? It seems, it appears at least, Trump Productions is planning a surrender ceremony for the Iranians. Fox News and all of the turd world media are covering it as a done deal. And then when Iran doesn’t show up, the media and the administration can roar and rail! What’s wrong with those people? Don’t they want peace, like me? It was all arranged!

The American side is trying to jump-start the peace talks on its own terms. The Iranians had specifically said they won’t deal with Jerk off and Mr. Son in Law. The American side needs a deal but puts on a stoic face, saying, This doesn’t hurt, not really. But both sides know it’s a lie. If you’re in the neighborhood, stop by! We can talk! You can talk with Jared. He’s almost as good as the Vice-President, maybe even better, or you can talk to the other guy. Two stooges! No waiting!

It is becoming a more pronounced problem as Mr. Trump keeps making statements to buoy the dim-witted in the stock market. According to Mr. Trump, the Iranians are ready to surrender on bended knee. Then hours later, the Iranians announce that they don’t know what the old duffer was talking about. But Fox News does. It’s all about the successful end of the Iran war. Presented live and in color from our Fox News studios.

So next time, maybe they’ll send Shady JD and ask, “Will the Iranians show up…this time?” But it’s a trap, If the Iranians show up. The media spin will try to coerce them into signing something, anything. Anything Trump can hang his hat on and declare victory among the dual digit IQs. The great peacemaker at work again! Hello? Nobel committee? Hello? What a jip, it seems you don’t get credit for stopping wars, if you started them yourself.

Trump as much as said so: if the Iranians reopen the Strait he’ll call it a deal. Victory! Then he can declare victory for the Fox News cameras. Then, it’s onto Cuba! Funny how the Cuba propaganda has dropped from the media spotlight. Gone! Like a busted lightbulb. Poof! From an internet hotspot back to obscurity. Back into the stew pot until we’re ready for them. Trump had big demagog dreams of remaking the world into America’s billionaire whorehouse. Then came Iran. No matter how many times Trump explained about how the two-dozen aging, decades-old airplanes in the Iranian air force have been destroyed. Or how their tiny navy had been sunk. The Iranians refuse to surrender.

First came denial, then anger. Then comes bargaining (You are Here! )Mr. Trump wants a document, real or imagined. You should know his gambit by now. Trump got his doctor to write a letter saying Trump was in perfect health. Trump had Bill Barr jimmy up the Mueller report as Trump repeats. “See! Completely innocent!” Just as Mr. Trump has claimed, the Justice Department has exonerated him of his over 39,000 references in the Epstein files.

Have you ever noticed how those fired from the Trump administration fall out of orbit into the media void? A media never, never land. What’s Kristi Noem doing with herself these days? Riding on that pony on her own time and dime, wearing her Stetson cowboy hat? What about Pam Bondi? What are her feelings about being fired? Nope. [404] File not found. Bondi was severed from the tit of government sustenance and sent out into the harsh, cold world of private practice.

Only the doors open to former Attorney Generals remain closed to Bondi. She has the orange evil eye upon her. Beware the king’s wrath, if you dare to employ her.  She’s been Orange listed. The king has declared her legal career to be null and void. They took Rudy Giuliani’s law license away, but his career wasn’t as finished as Pam Bondi’s. No media coverage, just fired, and all gone away and disappeared. Just like in the old Soviet Union. Living in a Dacha deep in Siberia somewhere. Ask that question again, and you just might find out for yourself, comrade.

It’s like playing UNO with an invisible deck of cards. No one knows what happens next. The more Trump tries to claim victory, the more he pushes the Iranians away from the peace table. They used to call it the California stop law; the driver with the least expensive car or economy to lose, has the right of way.

Who cares who actually won the war? Right? Sign here! Smile for the cameras! Shoot the film; we can add in our own headlines later. Iran surrendered today to the forces of Donald Trump. The media is the message. The media is product, and the media can come out as applesauce or toothpaste, victory or defeat, when going full Winston Smith
