I think "tragi-comic" might be more appropriate.

The current crop of Yanks-in-power are heartless bastards and an example of how "democracy" can be hijacked.
Beware of Farage and his knuckle-dragging goons.

A couple things…

The β€œconflictβ€œ in Iran *IS* a war.
It is a war of choice.
It is warfare without conscious.
It was unprovoked.

And I’m sick and tired of people suggesting & implying the only tragedies herein are that US Service Members have died. The people of Iran are innocents in this conflict!

The fact that the US/ISRAEL killed his dad might not soften his views.

β€˜MAGA is Trump’: President fires back at right-wing mutiny over Iran Tucker Carlson and other MAGA figures with big online audiences have criticized the assault on Iran, triggering pushback from the president and White House.

It was never "America First," it was always Trump first. The sooner people see this monster for who and what he is, the better off they'll be.

Everything Trump does and says just emphasizes the Air Force's "Dereliction of Duty".

Can't they figure out what to do about a "Domestic Enemy"?

I have been fantasizing about an A-10 Warthog flying over a golf β›³ course for months. Deliberately miss on the first pass.

The problem is, when you re-write history, you can't learn from it.

Most inconvenient.

Hey, "deal-maker",

This is a TERRIBLE deal.

It sounds like COMMUNISM.

Hubris Without Idealism Donald Trump has embraced a warped version of the neoconservatism he once derided.

Nigel Farage's Long History of Crying β€˜Fraud’ Whenever His Party Loses Elections The Reform UK leader has a long record of blaming his own party's election defeats on "cheating" by ethnic minorities, yet no evidence of it can ever be found

What about the Americans that the Trump Regime has publicly executed in broad daylight on American streets?

The irony and hypocrisy from these people is Astoundingly Shameless.

TV entertainer and inexplicably Secretary of Defense/War/whatevs Pete Hegseth is currently holding a press conference that is slightly adjacent to reality.

Just a reminder that not everyone in the military is a bootlicking asshole. Many are kids with no other options and others were born into families that expect the kids to join. Don’t be an asshole and cheer on their deaths.

No deaths in this war are acceptable.

This is so true.
They have to fill those hours of air-time!
What better than an active war, where you can rescreen the best explosions, the misery of the population, you can interview past (and jaded) generals and diplomats ad nauseam?

And the taxpayer pays for all the best special effects.

I do support the second amendment. I do think the right to bare arms is essential for protecting Democracy.

However, I don't think white men should legally be allowed to own guns.

If I had my way, only vulnerable communities would legally be allowed to own guns.
