The US Embassy in Riyadh seems to have taken a direct hit.

No idea on casualties, but it looks bad. Hope it was evacuated.

Trump Has Given America a Constitutional Dilemma Congress should not have to argue over whether to trigger the War Powers Resolution, and certainly not in the midst of conflict.

It’s wild how Republicans went from:

β€œObama is using Jade Helm to set up secret FEMA death camps and is going to turn the US into a police state and take our guns!!!”

To:

β€œSurveil me harder, daddy. πŸ₯΅β€

I just have a feeling that Trump’s attempts to control the midterms are more about him, flexing his power as president than it is about helping Republicans retain their majority. He β€œgoverns” via executive order as is.

Well, this is rich, coming from the Russians.

Have they even met Putin?

Nine months ago, the United States "completely and totally obliterated" Iran's nuclear program.

Tonight, we're attacking Iran to disrupt their nuclear program.

A sizable percentage of this country thinks that's normal.

As per usual he has the most bizarre and varied reasons for the attack.
We will hear multiple others throughout the coming days.

Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, that’s when you absolutely need to vote.

Ready to make this the biggest midterm turnout in history?

for those fixated on congressional authorization, i get it. this is a massive violation of our constitutional order.

even so, congress *cannot* legitimize an illegal war. there is nothing congress can do to make it legal under int'l law.

Keep in mind, Iran is a huge ally of Russia and kept them afloat in the early days of the war.

FYI: he was never going to let negotiations play out. This attack was decided on well in advance.

So ABC News just reported that Trump is working very hard to keep Iran from getting nuclear weapons.
Are you fucking kidding me? Is this how you do "journalism" now? Leave out anything that might put shit into context, like the fact that this whole mess is because Trump couldn't give Obama a "win"?
