Rubio Bypasses Congress to Send Israel $4 Billion in Arms

Rubio declares an emergency to bypass Congress to send $4 bn of arms to Israel. The possible orders include more than 35,000 bombs that are 2,000 lbs each—which US military officers say are unsuitable for urban combat—but which are responsible for the lion's share of civilian casualties in Gaza.

Optics.

Iran has a line of succession, just as we do — so there’s going to be some Vice Ayatollah Couchfuck McTurban ready to take over, and be just as repressive a bastard as Khamenei was. but Donny can’t be bothered by any of that ‘what comes next’ shit. he’s just going to wipe his hands and throw the Iranian people to the wolves, because psychopaths gonna psychopath.

AYATOLLAH KHAMENEI IS DEAD, BUT DONNY HAS NO PLAN FOR WHAT COMES NEXT, BECAUSE HE'S A BRAINLESS DUMBFUCK WHO SHOOTS FIRST AND THINKS NEVER. GOOD LUCK, IRANIAN PEOPLE — YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN. I LAY IT ALL OUT IN TODAY'S VERY ANGRY POST LIKE FEW THOUGHT POSSIBLE. LINK IS HERE: bit.ly/3OFYhSA

Mr. “No New Wars” has words about his new war.

“Trump isn’t responsible for the outcomes of his own war” is honestly an accurate representation of how Republicans want Trump to be treated, like a very special toddler.

Border wall is closing in on Texas’ Big Bend country Residents and elected officials are speaking out against a proposed border barrier through Texas’ biggest state park and one of the jewels of the national park system.

Noem waived 28 federal laws to fast-track 18-ft steel bollards, patrol roads, and stadium lighting through Big Bend NP.

CBP data: 178 crossings in Dec. 2025 for the *whole sector*.

It won’t stop drones or climbers. It will block black bears and mountain lions. And will cost $2B

Even by cult standards, this is just bonkers.

This administration is evil.

It's absolutely authoritarian.

And where are the elected Republicans who are calling this sh't out?

Silent!

Benghazi's back, baby

Currently trending on X.

Trump will destroys Iran out of vanity, ignoring Obama’s warnings, and today lives are paying the price of a foretold catastrophe.

The C.I.A. Helped Pinpoint a Gathering of Iranian Leaders. Then Israel Struck.

Here is the reason for the war: the CIA knew where Khameini and other top leaders were and Israel couldn't wait to get them. Trump just went along.

Revealed: Here’s Why Trump Chose War The Trump-Epstein files got too close to being exposed.

We knew all along that this war against Iran was designed to cover up Epstein/Trump files. But what gets me is he chose to kill so many people, children included during the beginning of a work day. I’ve witnessed hate but not at this level. #ReleaseTheFiles

West valley sushi shop owner released from ICE detention after eight months A federal judge has granted Kelly Yu temporary freedom after she filed a habius corpus petition.

"Her release follows months of advocacy from community members and political leaders of both parties.

Yu has operated her two West Valley restaurants for years, building a reputation for greeting customers with humor and kindness. She has no criminal record."

www.12news.com/article/news...

If Yu is the 'worst of the worst', what does that make this guy?

There was no legal reason for kidnapping this businesswoman in the first place. She deserves adequate compensation for being detained 8 months.

There is zero reason for them to hold someone like her for 8 months besides malice.

This innocent person was held for 8 months and we have to suffer a rapist pedophile in the white house.

I'm just done. There is no justice. Laws don't fucking matter. We still don't have justice for Renee or Alex. We just have war and rights being stripped away.

Just atrocity after atrocity. Fuck.

Strikes at Iran could reshape primary election dynamics Candidates face new litmus tests as AIPAC money and U.S. intervention dominate primary races.

Who is taking money from AIPAC and who is supporting US and Israel's disastrous strike and war in Iran?

www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

So we are killing Iranians and now Americans are dying as well and there’s no plan?

Nothing ever changes with republicans

This is like The Twilight Zone where trump wants to wish it away to the cornfield. Bombing a country and killing its leaders without Congressional authorization and no real plan to carry out the mission is just bullying.

Iran is the largest sponsor of state terrorism?

Pretty sure the ICE budget is bigger than Iran's total assets...

And Qatar, he received that plane in payment too

It was just to accommodate Bibi Netanyahu and Saudi Arabia. As long as we’re all clear.
