"This promise was made only because of the relentless U.S. & Israeli attack," said the Mad MAGA Hatter.

"I suppose so," said Alice. "If there hadn't been a relentless attack, Iran would not have responded at all, and there would have been no need for an apology."

"Clever plan, huh?" said the MMH.

There’s the possibility that Trump’s “special operation” in Iran may turn into a drawn-out slog like Putin’s war in the Ukraine. Here again, we reach the limits of our ability to foresee the future. lnk.thebulwark.com/40fOPI4

Happy Saturday. There were two possible words from L3 and one has appeared previously. The rhyme was as fun to write as I hope it is to read, not that I'll be attaching any eyelashes soon!

AOC: “That’s one reason he must be removed from office - if the Epstein files have such a hold on Trump & this admin that they are willing to plunge us & risk world war in order to save themselves politically - that is the definition of someone who cant make objective decisions for the American ppl”

Far too close for comfort, and the fact that wordle might re-use a word doesn't help. Glad you made it 😬!

Some advice to anyone who lays any credibility to the insults #Trump directs at other people: sooner or later Trump insults everyone. Because they are indiscriminate they are also meaningless.

Sure, he has power and is mercurial, but please don't attribute so much significance to his badmouthing.
