Atlas Supplicated?

Who benefits from Trump’s war in Iran? The answer is disturbingly clear There's no four-dimensional chess here. There's just the president, and what we know he's like.

“Who wants Iran bombed off the map, for their own reasons? Who are their rivals and enemies? Perennially, the Gulf Arab states, countries like Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar.”

Trump is incapable.

Get him to impeach The Artful Draft Dodger too.

U.S. and Israel launch major attacks in Iran that Israel claims killed supreme leader On Saturday Donald Trump announced the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran with strikes designed to prevent nuclear weapons and help Iranians.

Trump never passes up an opportunity to kill people.

This is a sad day in a string of sad days. This is not America.

Is there any doubt that THE DEPARTMENT OF FUCKING WAR will develop a Skynet?

Trump is such a piss-poor president that instead of supporting the recent call for revolution in Iran, he declares war weeks later.

In the last year alone, Trump has ordered military strikes in seven nations.

Trump sucks.

The pestilent Paramount cannot be allowed to get its fascist fingers on Warner Brothers.

Pure greed! If WB doesn’t sell its soul to the devil would it be going away? NO! (But executives might not be able to afford their PJs).

Shouldn’t Bondi be in jail?

In a trial, when a party hides evidence there is a “Adverse Inference Instruction” that tells the jury to assume the missing evidence would prove the worst.

If you still subscribe to Paramount, why?

Maybe he’s right? Maybe China put Trump in office to ruin America?

Trump paints everything around him gold to emulate King Midas. Truth is, everything Trump touches turns to shit.

People are asking what else they can do.

My advice is to drop your subscriptions to Paramount and Warner Brothers services and use that money to support as many independent media outlets as you can afford. Pick a couple and give them a try. It's critical we build a pro-democracy media ecosystem.
