Ceasefire and Truce, Maybe

Townhall's Katie Pavich has a bombshell announcement from President Trump. Here is what he posted on Truth Social.

CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED! Officially, Iran will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 12th Hour, Israel will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World. During each CEASEFIRE, the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL.

On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, 'THE 12 DAY WAR.' This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!

Fingers crossed, friends. Let's hope it holds. If it is on the level, Iran is showing more judgment than I had given them credit for. Maybe Roubini's prediction (below) came true sooner than expected? 

Meanwhile Democrats are eating TACOs filled with crow.

Later ... as of 5:45 p.m. Mountain Time, neither Israel nor Iran has confirmed what Trump announced. Can he have jumped the gun, announced something negotiators agreed upon that the folks back home won't honor?
