Stephen Miller: “We do NOT know the names of ANY SNAP recipient in the state of Minnesota. We just get a blank check. We have asked the state repeatedly and tried to compel the state unsuccessfully to turn over their SNAP enrollment rolls so we could ascertain such basic facts as, are these people even legally eligible to receive these benefits?”

“And the state has refused, absolutely, categorically refused,and in fact the state has spent millions of dollars in court for the singular purpose of trying to prevent the [federal government] from ascertaining the identity of a single SNAP recipient in the entire state of Minnesota.”

“Think about what this does to public trust, social trust, people's faith in the system program.”

Insanity!(criminality!)

Aluminium Bahrain, also known as Alba, confirmed early Sunday that its facilities were targeted in an Iranian attack a day earlier, Bahrain's state news agency reported.

Alba said two people were mildly injured in the attack, adding that it was assessing damage in the facilities.

The confirmation comes after Iran's Revolutionary Guards said they targeted Alba and Emirates Global Aluminium in response to attacks on two Iranian steel plants.The IRGC said, without elaborating, that the two companies had ties to US military and aeronautics firms.

Reuters could not independently verify the IRGC's claims.

IRGC threatens universities across Middle East after alleged strike against Iran University

The IRGC threatened staff, students, and civilians living near universities to maintain a distance of 1 kilometer from the sites to "preserve their lives."

MARCH 29, 2026 03:40

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said that it will target American and Israeli universities in the Middle East as a response to a reported attack on the Iran University of Science and Technology in Tehran, the semi-official news outlet Tasnim News Agency reported on Saturday.

The statement shared by Tasnim stated that "the United States should be aware that all Israeli and American universities located in the West Asia region would become legitimate targets until two universities are struck in retaliation for the destroyed Iranian universities."

As an ultimatum to the US government, the IRGC said that the American officials have until Monday to issue an official statement "condemning the bombing of universities."

Iranian expats say UAE canceled their residency visas, leaving many stranded

17 hours ago

The United Arab Emirates has in recent days canceled the residency visas of Iranians outside the country, leaving some stranded abroad, according to accounts and information received by Iran International from affected individuals.

Iranian residents discovered their visas had been revoked before returning to the UAE, preventing their re-entry, several affected individuals told Iran International, as relations between the two countries deteriorate following Iranian strikes on the Arab state.

Earlier reports had also pointed to the cancellation of tourist visas for Iranian nationals traveling to the UAE.

Several individuals described sudden cancellations while traveling. One Iranian resident said that after leaving for India with his family following the outbreak of war, he found his residency had been revoked, while his non-Iranian family members were still able to return.

Another said his residency tied to a 10-year “golden visa” had been canceled while he was abroad. A London-based Iranian with a UK work visa said he discovered his UAE residency had been revoked before traveling to Dubai.

As of the time of reporting, no official statement has been issued by UAE authorities. Iran International requested clarification from Emirati officials but has not received a response.

The developments come amid escalating regional tensions. Following the start of joint US-Israeli strikes against the Islamic Republic, Iran launched attacks on countries in the region, with the UAE reportedly facing the highest volume.

Iran has so far launched 393 ballistic and cruise missiles and 1,835 drones toward the UAE, resulting in at least 10 deaths and 171 injuries, including Iranian nationals, according to official statistics.

In response, UAE authorities have suspended the operations of Iran-linked institutions, including an Iranian hospital, Iranian schools, the Club of Iranians, the UAE branch of Islamic Azad University, and the Imam Hossein mosque.

Housing units tied to these institutions have been vacated, and staff whose visas were linked to them — including teachers and some medical personnel — have had their residencies canceled, according to information obtained by Iran International.

At least five Iranian schools in the UAE have been closed, with student records returned to families.

Individuals whose residencies were revoked are being repatriated to Iran via Afghanistan, first transferred to Herat and then crossing by land.

UAE authorities have also instructed Iran’s consulate in Dubai to reduce its staff and continue operating with minimal personnel.

Senior UAE officials have in recent weeks taken unusually direct positions against Iran. Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan described the Islamic Republic as “terrorist,” saying the UAE would never submit to “terrorist blackmail.”

President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan earlier called Iran an “enemy” and warned that the country was “not an easy target.”

US waiver on Iran sanctions redirects oil flows from China toward India

Mohamad Machine-Chian

Iran International

Mar 27, 2026, 21:37 GMT. (1/2)

Washington’s sanctions waiver, introduced during the Iran war to ease oil supply pressure,is channeling discounted crude away from Chinaand toward India, strengthening energy ties with New Delhi.

In response to Operation Epic Fury,Tehran turned to asymmetric leverage, relying on its capacity todisruptshipping through the Strait of Hormuz anddrive up global oil prices.

Anticipating marketvolatility, the US Treasury issueda targetedsanctions waiver designed to stabilize oil markets whilepreservingfinancial pressure on Tehran.

Yet as the waiverframework evolved from an India-specific mechanisminto a more generalized policy, it continued in practiceto serve Indian refiners, redirecting sanctioned crude away from China andtoward India.

The Russian test case

On March 5, Treasury issued a waiver allowing Indian refiners — IOC, BPCL, HPCL, and Reliance Industries — topurchase already-produced Russian crudecargoes that were on the water.

When Treasury expanded the waiver on March 12–13,Indian refinersremained theonly significant buyersof the authorized Russian barrels. The expansion continued to apply only to cargoes alreadyon the water, did not restore formal banking channels, and did not lift underlying sanctions.

Miad Maleki, a former US Treasury official, describedGeneral License Uas authorizing “the commodity transaction; it says nothing about payment.” The license permits the sale of oil but does not restore banking access or create a formal payment channel.That distinctionallowed trade in physical barrels while preservingfinancial pressure.

The Iranian extension

The March 20 application of the same waiver model to roughly 170 million barrels of Iranian crude floating offshore replicated the policy — and once again,India remained the only swing buyer.

Reliance Industries, the largest Indian public company,purchased 5 million barrels of Iranian crude at a $7 premiumto Brent. The same Indian refiners, IOC, BPCL, and HPCL, reportedly plan to resume purchases.

Homayoun Falakshahi, head of crude oil analysis at Kpler, saidIranian crude often remains unsold until reaching Asiandischarge zones such as Singapore or Malaysia.

(2/2)

Because many cargoes were already produced but waiting for buyers,releasingthem under the waiver hadimmediate supply effects.

He added: “Now thatIndiahas entered as a competitor, theprice in China will most likely increase.”

In effect, India’s participationdisrupted China’s near-monopsonyover sanctioned Iranian crude — reshaping pricing leverage without formally lifting sanctions.

Before 2019,Indian refiners importedroughly 450,000 barrels per day of Iranian crude under contracts with National Iranian Oil Company.

They retain thetechnical configurationand commercial familiarity to scale quickly within short waiver windows.

Thatinstitutional memorygives Washington a ready-made alternative buyer base whenever it chooses to recalibrate supply pressure.

India’s strategic ascent

India’s admissioninto the Pax Silica, formalized on February 20, placed it within the US-led supply-chain initiative focused onreducing dependence on Chinain semiconductor and AI production. As Under Secretary Jacob Helberg said:"Pax Silica is really not about China, it is about America. We want to secure our supply chains. We view India as a partner to help de-risk and diversify those supply chains."

Prime Minister Narendra Modi visitedIsraelon February 25–26, where thetwo countries elevated ties to a “special strategic partnership.” Two days later, Operation Epic Fury began.

The new world order

Early in President Trump’s second term, Washington sought toreshape the global order. India was expected to become acounterweightto China, and Iran was given a chance for realignment. Neither objective materialized at the outset. India’s role remained limited,negotiations with Iran collapsed, and a 12-day war followed. Trade and tariff disputes further complicated the restructuring effort.

Washington’s tactical support of India’s energy role may carry implications beyond temporary oil supply management.Pax Silica realigns industrial supply chains; the waiver framework redirects sanctioned energy flows. Together, they position India within thetechnological and commodity axes of great-power competition.

This suggests asecond, more structured attempt to reshape the global order.

With India onboard, the decisive variable becomes whether Operation Epic Furygeneratessufficient leverage to push Iran away from its long-standing partnerships withBeijing and Moscow. A realignment toward Washington could be the tipping point in the consolidation of this new order.

European allies accuse Russia of aiding Iran - CBS News

16 hours ago

(Europe has proved they are not allies, and they would never be willingly helpful, by spreading this lie.)

European allies saidRussiais providing more intelligence support to Iran —including help targeting US forces— than the US has publicly acknowledged, sources told CBS News on Saturday. (WTF where do the get this bs that the U.S. is hiding it.)

"Multiplesources, including asenior US officialwith direct knowledge, told CBS News earlier in March that Russia is providing intelligence to Iran regarding US positions in the Middle East," the report said. "TheEuropean Union's top diplomatsaid Thursday thatRussia is providing intelligence support to Iran to "kill Americans.".

(Why is the top diplomat providing secret info, what about all the European intel agencies providing the info to the U.S., that would be their duty. And if the EU intel agencies delivered the info, why is the EU politicians revealing this publicly? They are still pushing this, these are“supposed allies”)

(https://www.iranintl.com/en/202603281631

(Absolute Bullshit Russia would never willingly share info to intentionally kill Americans. Do you remember it was Russia warned the U.S. before 9/11.Europe always blames Russia for any conspiracy theory that Zelensky and Ukraine push.Remember when the Media started this rumor early on of the war, Trump Team dismissed it asap, telling the public and gossip mongers it was nonsense. Since Trump dismissed it, Europe and Zelenskyy are desperate and they are still at it.This is Ukraine generated bullshit. Z actually thinks Ukraine is equal to Russia now!Ukraine, Zelensky and Europe are worse enemies against America than Russia could be it. But now you our Military listening to Zelenskyy with lies about Russia.)

I wish Trump would ban Zelensky from entering the U.S. forever along with his team of liars

CENTCOM Announces 3,500 Marines Arrive in Ready Position

March 29, 2026 | sundance |

As the ongoing Operation Epic Fury military engagement continues, CENTCOM announces the arrival of 3.500 Marines from the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit into forward position.

[SOURCE]

As negotiations with Iranian leadership are reported to be ongoing, it would appear that options are now present for President Trump to make a decision on the potential seizure of Kharg Island, a crucial oil export hub off Iran’s coast.

• (Via Wall Street Journal) – The Pentagon is looking at sending up to 10,000 additional ground troops to the Middle East to give President Trump more military options even as he weighs peace talks with Tehran, Department of Defense officials with knowledge of the planning said.

• The force, which would likely include infantry and armored vehicles, would be added to the roughly 5,000 Marines and the thousands of paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne Division who have already been ordered to the region.

• It is unclear where precisely forces will go in the Middle East, but they will likely be within striking distance of Iran and Kharg Island, a crucial oil export hub off Iran’s coast.

•Trump has repeatedly said he will open the Strait of Hormuz, with or without the help of U.S. allies. (read more)

• Marines, Our Nation is in a consequential moment. Global events are shaping our nation's security, and we must be ready. I ask you directly: Are you truly ready to deploy, fight, and win? Are your skills sharp, your standards high, and your gear prepared for immediate movement? Is your desert MARPAT readily available, is your gear packed and ready to pick up and move, or is it stored away in a corner of your home? Are your family's affairs in order? When the call comes, readiness will be assumed, not questioned. Your readiness is not a

declaration; it is a daily commitment.This is not a theoretical exercise. Our forces are currently engaged in operations connected to Iran and are positioned to preserve stability in the Western Hemisphere. Our enemies get a vote, and a mass mobilization could become reality.We are operating in this environment now. History demands our readiness today, tomorrow, and every day. Your preparation for combat is forged in your daily actions, your training, and the seriousness with which you handle every responsibility.We are measured not by our intentions, but by what we can do right now. Check your readiness. Tighten your standards. Prepare your family. Our nation expects a disciplined, capable force ready for immediate action. That force is Marine Forces Reserve. That standard begins with, and must be held by, you.

FIGHT'S ON!

Etal, Leonard F. Anderson

Lieutenant General, U.S. Marine Corps Commander, Marine Forces Reserve and Marine Forces South

G… I am pleased to share a great news that the Government of Iran has agreed to allow 20 more ships under the Pakistani flag to pass through the Strait of Hormuz;two ships will cross the Strait daily. This is a welcome and constructive gesture by Iran and deserves appreciation. It is a harbinger of peace and will help usher stability in the region. This positive announcement marks a meaningful step toward peace and will strengthen our collective efforts in that direction. Dialogue, diplomacy, and such confidence-building measures are the only way forward.

Tensions Surface Between Secretary Marco Rubio and Insufferable EU Foreign Affairs Rep Kaja Kallas(KEK she is a big dope)

March 28, 2026 | Sundance |

If you’ve ever watched the intrapersonal aspects of the EU as a governing body, you havelikely noticed that EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Kaja Kallas, is an annoying person always injecting herself into every discussion. The DEI infected bureaucrats always go along with it.

Last month,Kallas came to the USA to meet with members of congress sympathetic to World War Reddit and Zelenskyy. A cashmere dustup was created because Secretary of StateMarco Rubio didn’t meet with her on the eve of Operation Epic Fury.Mrs Kallas felt slighted.

According to insider reports, during Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s recent visit to the G7 foreign minister’s assembly inParis Mrs Kallas took the opportunity to snark at Secretary Rubio.

• (Via Axios) – EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas asked Secretary of State Marco Rubiowhen the U.S. would get tough on Russia during a G7 ministers meetingon Friday,sparking a sharp retort, according to three sources who attended the meeting.

She noted that Rubio had said at the same forum a year earlier that if Russia hampered U.S. efforts to end the war, the U.S. would run out of patience and take more steps against the Kremlin.

“A year has passed and Russia hasn’t moved,” Kallas told Rubio, according to the sources. “When is your patience going to run out?”

Rubio was visibly annoyed, “We are doing the best we can to end the war. If you think you can do it better, go ahead. We will step aside,” he fired back,raising his voice. (read more)

She literally is the dumbest leader ruling the EU with Ursula von der Leyen!

>>24441396

The idiotic thing is the EU will not deal directly with Russia, even though Putin offered. The Russia know this is not an unbiased commission full of hatred for Russia, and they are bowing to their fake idol, zelensky.

The whole manipulation was to destroy Putin and steal Russian assets. Good luck with that idiots! Remember how Russia saved Europe from the Nazi’s. Of course you don’t. Merz is trying hard to bring back Nazism which Ukraine is, Nazis.
