There was no imminent threat. The narrative keeps shifting. The nuclear claims are contradictory. So letโ€™s start there.

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

Here's a Jan. 6 rioter posing with a press pass before Pete Hegseth's press conference, just to give you a sense of the type of "journalists" who were in the Pentagon briefing room this morning.

Every single US base in the Middle East has been targeted by Iran, the most prominent strike taking place in Bahrain. For the most part Iranโ€™s retaliation seems very weak. No info on which Iranian regime leaders were successfully assassinated. Civilian casualties unknown.

How many of our troops will have to die to cover up the fact that the Epstein Class raped and killed children and delay the midterm elections?
