CNN: US May Break Geneva Conventions;
Say Pilot Rescue Was Too Costly
Posted By: Dreadnought, 4/6/2026 6:24:36 PM
On Monday’s CNN This Morning, the panel on the Audie Cornish-hosted program started with more accusations of U.S. war crimes from panelist Sarah Fitzpatrick of The Atlantic and Kim Dozier, a CNN Global Affairs Analyst. Fitzpatrick said the US will be “turning off incubators for babies,” while Dozier claimed the US is about to violate the Geneva Conventions like Russia had in Ukraine. Furthermore, at the end of the hour-long morning show, a discussion ensued between Cornish and Fitzpatrick, which worried almost only about the “cost” of the rescue mission of a U.S. Military pilot.

US stocks surged Wednesday as oil plunged in its biggest single-day decline since the pandemic, after President Trump said he had agreed to a two-week ceasefire with Iran including the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average soared 1,325 points, or 2.9%, to 47,909.92 — the best day since April 2025. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq jumped 2.5% and 2.8%, respectively.
Brent crude oil prices dropped 13% to $96.31 a barrel – the lowest price in nearly a month after news that Iran would allow the temporary safe passage of ships through the strait, a vital maritime route for 20% of the world’s oil supply.
Left-wing actor George Clooney is calling President Donald Trump a war criminal after Trump insisted he intended to erase away the oppressive Iranian Mullah’s “whole civilization.”
The actor, who abandoned the U.S.A. to take up residence in Italy, ripped Trump for his social media post warning the oppressive, terror-exporting, Iranian regime that he intended to utterly destroy them.
Trump took to his Truth Social account on Monday, April 7, to warn the Mullahs, writing, “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change,

The end of the mullahs’ civilization has been called off, at least for now and probably forever. President Trump is characterizing it positively:
President Trump agreed to a two-week pause on military strikes on Iran in a dramatic pivot less than 90 minutes from his 8 p.m. deadline — saying it was subject to Tehran agreeing to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
In a statement on Truth Social, Trump said he spoke with Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, who urged him to hold off on what he described as a “destructive force” set to be unleashed on Iran.
Democrats and their media allies have worked overtime to paint President Donald Trump as reckless, unstable, and dangerously unfit to lead. The latest excuse for their hysteria came after Trump put pressure on Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which has been effectively closed since February, cutting off roughly 20% of the world’s oil supply. They’ve been daring the United States to respond ever since, and Trump did respond. And that’s when the left completely lost it.
On Tuesday morning, Trump issued a blunt warning on Truth Social. He demanded that Iran reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
He set a deadline and made it clear he wasn’t bluffing. He warned
The Elitist Media are predictable because their Trump derangement pushes them into predictable patterns of conduct which then manifests on the air and in real time. This predictability extends to media reactions to the announcement of a two-week ceasefire in Iran, as demonstrated by CNN’s Erin Burnett.

Welp. Guess the threat of Armageddon and Trump not backing down in the face of the world going nuts on him sent some shivers down the Iranian regime's legs. Spazz cases. But they're not the ones in the crosshairs who have to do the risk calculations. I had an inkling something had shivered mullah timbers when I saw this just a few hours ago. Like, 'Hey!'
MAYBE THIS FLIPPIN' GUY'S FOR #REALZ!!!
And they BLINKED
The announcement has just come straight from the president. "I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks."
"This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE! The reason for doing so
Will Donald Trump follow through on his ultimatum to target and destroy Iran’s energy infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz did not fully reopen? We are still about 90 minutes away from H-Hour on that demand. However, we have already seen this threat expose the hypocrisy, ignorance, and propagandizing of the American media – and not just from legacy media outlets, either.
Initially, I began addressing this in my Final Word post, but it got so extensive that it clearly requires a more definitive rebuttal. The “war crime” narrative in relation to Trump’s threats to target Iranian energy infrastructure didn’t start with UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres,

Just a quick post to update on whether the 8pm Eastern deadline issued by President Donald Trump for Iran to cave is real or not. Spoiler alert: It's real.
After a Truth Social and X cross-post by the President that promised a civilization-ending demise coming to the Iranian military junta running the country, a couple of things happened. The anti-Trump fever swamp leapt to war crime accusations, fears of nuclear weapons being used, and calls for emergency impeachment and/or 25th Amendment measures against Trump being deployed to fill the timelines of the online world and cable news outlets leading up to the deadline.
Simultaneously,
MADISON, Wis. — The board that runs the Universities of Wisconsin voted unanimously Tuesday to fire the system’s president, drawing the ire of Republican lawmakers who called it a “partisan hatchet job.”
Jay Rothman had refused an offer from the board of regents to quietly resign, saying it never gave a clear reason why he should.//snip//Rothman brokered a deal with Republicans in 2023 that called for freezing diversity hires and creating a position at UW-Madison focused on conservative thought in exchange for the Legislature releasing money for UW employee raises and tens of millions of dollars for construction projects across the system.
Don't necessarily expect this to show up at the gas pump instantaneously, but there's good news on the oil price front following President Trump's announcement that a tentative ceasefire agreement had been reached with Iran. It's probably too soon to call this a done deal — lots of i's to dot and t's to cross before that can be said. And...this is Iran we're talking about.
Still, following the President's announcement of the potential deal, oil prices took a precipitous drop, marking the biggest one-day nosedive since 1991 and the Gulf War.
Crude oil prices dropped sharply Tuesday evening, falling well under $100

RINGGOLD, GA — Republican congressional candidate Clay Fuller just gave House Speaker Mike Johnson a little bit of breathing room as the GOP clings to a razor-thin majority in Congress.
Fuller, who was backed by President Donald Trump, on Tuesday defeated Democrat Shawn Harris in a special election to fill the empty U.S. House seat in Georgia's solidly red 14th Congressional District, the Associated Press reports.
The seat was left vacant when MAGA firebrand Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene stepped down at the beginning of January. Greene quit Congress with a year left in her term, after a bitter falling out with Trump.

It is absolutely self-evident to me that space exploration is pointless, and the more urgent the crises besetting this planet we live on, the more pointless it becomes. I can see why people got excited about it in the 1960s, back when the world was young and we still thought there might be little green people out there – who wouldn’t want to meet them? Most serious opinion, however, has now settled on the “Where is everybody?” paradox first framed by the physicist Enrico Fermi in 1950. If there is intelligent life anywhere, why has it not sought to make contact? It’s because there isn’t. There’s nothing out there
A Haitian illegal immigrant released into the US by the Biden administration’s lax immigration policies allegedly bludgeoned a Florida mother at a gas station in a brazen daylight attack.
Rolbert Jaochin, 40, is accused of striking the 51-year-old woman multiple times, leaving her to die in the parking lot outside a Chevron gas station in Fort Myers around 7:20 a.m. Friday, according to court records viewed by The Post.
The woman was found by first responders outside the convenience store, not breathing, lying in a pool of blood around her head, according to the documents.
One of the past decade’s most polarizing figures in American sports will publish a book, nearly 10 years to the day after the moment that dramatically changed, and prematurely ended, his NFL career. Colin Kaepernick has announced plans to publish The Perilous Fight on September 15, 2026, two weeks after the 10-year anniversary of the moment he was first spotted sitting during the national anthem before a preseason game. He’d been sitting during the anthem throughout the 2016 preseason. For the September 1 game, he was in uniform for the first time, making the gesture conspicuous and noticeable. What followed
President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he agreed to suspend planned attacks on Iranian infrastructure for two weeks.
The move was “subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz,” he wrote on Truth Social.
The announcement came less than two hours before his deadline on Iran to either make a deal that includes opening the Strait of Hormuz or else face major attacks on its civilian infrastructure.
Trump wrote that he made the decision “based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan.”
Pope Leo's Flawed War Doctrine

Pope Leo XIV used part of his Palm Sunday message to castigate the United States for attempting to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear power and threatening the world with mass destruction. In doing so, the "American Pope" confused the real enemy in the war. Addressing thousands in St. Peter's Square, the Pope claimed that God rejects the prayers of leaders who wage war. He called the Iran war "atrocious" violence that cannot be justified by faith. He further said that God doesn't hear the prayers of people whose "hands (are) full of blood."
Democrats and several conservative commentators demanded the invocation of the 25th Amendment to remove Trump.Democrats called for the invocation of 25th Amendment to remove President Donald Trump after his latest threat that a "whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again". "Not a single bomb has dropped on America. We cannot kill an entire civilization. This is evil and madness," former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene posted. "We need to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump. Threatening war crimes is a blatant violation of our Constitution and the Geneva Conventions," Dem Congressman Ro Khanna said,
Could Marco Rubio be the one to take down the woke and seemingly untouchable Rep. Ilhan Omar?
He seems to think that $40 million fortune of hers came from something different than wine sales from her winery.
Which is shockingly direct. Usually, they don't state things so directly.
But if it's true that Omar ran a pay-to-play refugee operation, it would surely be illegal. And who would be in a position to know this better than Rubio who runs the Department of State and all its adjacents?
With a confident tweet like that, it seems likely that he knows something. What's more, he's been after her for at least six weeks;
The U.S. government is using AI to locate and arrest migrants who are accused of being in the United States illegally. According to several reports, the Department of Homeland Security is hiring a litany of private contractors and giving them the names of thousands of migrants. The contractors are then using artificial intelligence to find the migrants. The process of using AI, public records, databases, online information and surveillance is called “skip tracing.” It’s been used by debt collectors, bail bondsmen and private investigators for years. But reports say DHS is paying private companies billions of dollars to use this process to find migrants for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins sent USDA staff an Easter email that emphasized the story of Jesus being crucified and resurrected, a message that some Christians said alienated them for its overt religiosity. “Happy Easter — He is Risen indeed,” Rollins wrote in the email sent on Good Friday, which CNBC has reviewed and was first to report.
“From the foot of the Cross on Good Friday to the stone rolled away from the now empty tomb, sin has been destroyed,” Rollins wrote.
After less than three months in office, Virginians are expressing displeasure with Virginia’s Democrat Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s tenure thus far.

Iranian authorities are urging young people, students, artists, athletes, and volunteer groups to form “human chains” around power plants across the country just hours before President Donald Trump’s deadline for a deal expires, effectively gathering civilians at infrastructure sites the United States has explicitly threatened to strike.
The campaign, promoted through Iran’s Ministry of Sports and Youth, is set for 2 p.m. Tuesday local time — roughly 13 hours before Trump’s 8 p.m. Eastern deadline — and has been branded “Human Chain of Iran’s Youth for a Bright Future.”
