Flynn came to a forceful yet vague conclusion.

"As of today, we're officially putting Iran on notice," he said.

Flynn's comments echo what Lawrence Brennan, a Fordham University maritime law professor and former US Navy commander, told Business Insider on Monday. Essentially, the Houthi attack on a Saudi ship using suicide boats may change the calculus for the US Navy operating in the region, he said.

"This attack is likely to impact US naval operations and rules of engagement in nearby waters," said Brennan, who said Iranian ships frequently harass and sail close to US Navy ships.

Brennan suggested that in light of the recent suicide boat attacks, the US Navy should consider shooting Iranian or other hostile vessels that get too close.

The stage is set, saturday night, prime time, at the white house. The Chairmann of China and the President of Iran nervously shuffle their feet. And there he is, POTUS Trump has entered the room, and he does not look happy. Tonight is the big night, the big finale of americas best and greatest tv show, everybody says so. The warprentice. One of these two countries will soon learn what it is like to go up against america, but who will it be? Iran, according to trump, is "very bad". China on the other hand, he "does not enjoy at all. SAD country, overrated."

Trumps calm and dignified screams break the silence. "YOU ARE BOTH going to be FIRED upon". What a twist, america is going to go to war with both countries! Once again our President has shown that he is a strong man who plays by nobodies rules. What a time to be alive. America is finally great again.

According to the local news agency PressTV, the Central Bank of Iran is seeking to replace the dollar with a new common foreign currency or use a basket of currencies in all official financial and foreign exchange reports.

The governor Valiollah Seif said it would come into force in the new financial year starting March 21, 2017.

The agency quotes Seif recommending using currencies with a “high degree of stability.”

The decision comes after President Trump temporarily banned citizens of Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen from entering the US.

After Trump’s election, the Iranian rial saw record lows against the dollar. On December 27 it plunged to its all-time low of 41,600 rials to the dollar.

When Trump won the election the share price of every American bank rose immediately, prompting the current CEO's to sell off large portions of their stake in the companies they manage. This was largely due to his intention to repeal the Dodd Frank act. The fact the share price rose not only predicts that banks will use the freedoms granted by the repeal, it practically obligates them to in order to meet shareholder expectations. The fact the CEOs sold off large amounts of their shares suggests the people at the top know the banks won't be riding high for very long before collapsing.

The democrats are often accused of having turned their back on the working class in favour of big business, which is true enough, but their doing so has driven the Republican Party to appeal to a small section of the business world the democrats won't cater to: vulture capitalists, those who profit at the expense of the economy rather than by contributing even a small amount to it. Trump made his fortune through tax evasion and bankruptcy. The previous republican nominee made his fortune from driving businesses into the ground at the expense of everyone but himself. And now you have a government driven by such forces, with no desire to achieve a stable economy because their people profit more from destruction.

That reminds me of a lol worthy dream I had, where Trump had invited Judge Judy to rule on the immigration executive order expecting her to come out in his favour, so he arranged for it to be reported live from the White House. Judy proceeded to dismantle the order, Trump, and his cabinet then escaped through a door behind her. Trump followed, incensed, before we the viewers saw cctv footage of Trump huffing and puffing red faced around the White House trying to find Judy. Lol.

When did Trump go full retard? He seems reasonably intelligent in that congressional hearing from the early 90s. He seems like he should be in a rest home where his complaints about the modern world and how things work wouldn't be as alarming. The us elected Abe Simpson basically
