Trump and Hegseth have everything figured out. We got strategic geniuses running this operation.

It was called a runoff between Cornyn and Paxton.

No one ever accused neo-liberals of being exceptionally intelligent. Still more than any Republican but not by much more. Blue MAGA essentially.

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

These are sick, weird, twisted people. All of them.

I was on BBC last night, following a clip with voices from Iran. All the selected voices welcomed war, saying they cheered every time they heard an explosion.

Those views exist. But when you ONLY air those voices, you are doing war propaganda.

And I told BBC that live on air.

That’s it for Dan Crenshaw.

We learned today that Israel BOMBED the building it THOUGHT was the site of Iranian leaders choosing a new Ayatollah today.

So the NYT should be very clear on Trump and Netanyahu wanting ABSOLUTE CHAOS in Iran, not someone they can negotiate with.

Do better, NYT. Please, finally, do better.

Watch this race, folks. Jeffries poured a ton of AIPAC money into it to support Foushee who said she'll no longer accept AIPAC money.

Super tight.

No one is saying she'd be worse. We just know when Israel says jump...

I'll subtract another 100%. Down to 100% now.

Agreed 1000%.

Less likely. But if our master Israel demanded it, probably yes.

This is madness and history will judge us for it.

MARCO RUBIO:

The imminent threat was from Israel deciding to attack Iran without us and then Iran retaliating

The imminent threat was from Israel deciding to attack Iran without us

The imminent threat was from Israel deciding to attack Iran

YouTube video by Breaking Points Professor Jiang Predicts: US WILL LOSE Iran War

I do agree with this assessment. This was not a war that the #Trump Administration really prepared for as they have made many of the same wrong assumptions as Putin did in Ukraine.

The #USA will lose this war if it lasts too long.

And it is up to #Iran how long it lasts.

youtu.be/4Ql24Z8SIeE?...

we’ve reached the point where the american system of government seems no longer to exist at the federal level.

the executive no longer abides by our laws and clearly hates our constitution. congress has demonstrated a similar contempt.

the constitution is a dead letter except where convenient.

a group of cartoon characters are posing for a picture in a classroom .. ALT: a group of cartoon characters are posing for a picture in a classroom ..

Everyone else: "Say the line, #MAGA."

MAGAt: "This is not what I voted for."

Everyone else: "Yes, it is!"

Trump doesn’t have a plan for Iran

Trump is already bored with Iran

He’s at a party, and then he’s off to play golf

You sort it out

Not only *did* they start this war, they have no idea how to finish it.

So, Trump and the GOP's strategy in the Middle East is basically: We destabilized your region, now it's up to you to stabilize it. We just fuck shit up, we are not in the business of fixing it..

He originally said was going to cost $200 million. Then he said $250 million. Then $300 million. But now it's going to come in under budget at $400 million.

He's spiraling.

So, #Israel was going to strike #Iran first and, instead of using our immense political and financial pressure to stop them, the #Trump Administration decided to join in.

We are being governed by inept idiots.

In closed-door Congressional briefings, The Felon administration officials admitted there was NO intelligence showing Iran was preparing to strike U.S. forces first. That blows a hole straight through one of the central justifications senior officials used to sell this war.
#RemoveTrumpVanceMAGA

There was no imminent threat. The narrative keeps shifting. The nuclear claims are contradictory. So let’s start there.

As we just saw in the Pentagon press-con, there is no clear strategy.

This bipartisan Iran War Powers Resolution has been sitting with Speaker Johnson since June 2025.

Nah. He doesn't want you to help. He wants you to bend the knee.

Rumsfeld: "I can't tell you if the use of force in Iraq today would last five days or five weeks or five months, but it certainly isn't gonna last any longer than that."

Hegseth: " It may or may not take four weeks, two weeks, six weeks. It could move up, it could move back."

Trump and Hegseth both opened the door to boots on the ground in Iran today.

Who the fuck voted for that?

"The Peace President."
