No one in Trump’s band of misfits ever apologizes for anything. I think it must be grounds for immediate dismissal by the #LyingGrifterInChief.

Kennedy: β€œThe president approved you're spending $220 million running TV ads?”

Noem: β€œYes…One thing would be helpful to know, how effective that communication has been.”

Kennedy: β€œEffective in your name recognition…I'm not saying you're not telling the truth. It's just hard for me to believe.”

This is totally hilarious. After what Israel did to Gaza. They have the nerve to say this about Iran. I think their memory span for them in leadership in Israel is about as short as a small cigarette.

That's 300,000 school lunches a day to help the 47% of children in Florida who are food insecure at home.

No-bid contracts to just one donor netted 4.5 million for Republican campaign coffers.

We need to get money out of politics and put government back to work for the people.

Trump admits he is open to U.S. boots on the ground in Iran:

"I don’t have the yips with respect to boots on the ground. Every president says, β€˜There will be no boots on the ground.’ I don’t say it."

Rep. Deluzio: I don't think the Trump administration knows what they are doing. We have 4 dead Americans, which is horrible. I think folks at home want cheaper health care, cheaper housing. They don't want billions spent on unnecessary wars overseas and Americans coming home in flag-draped caskets.

Trump less than two weeks ago: "There's nothing more important than peace. And there's nothing less expensive than peace. When you go to war, it costs you 100 times what it costs to make peace.”

Host: The administration has been all over the place on its justification for war in Iran. Trump said it was to stop Iran from getting a nuke. Hegseth said it wasn't about regime change. Trump talked about a change in leadership. The story changes not just by the day, but by the conversation

Iraq War Veteran Crow: Trump announced the start of this war with Iran at Mar-a-Lago. He talked about the fact that service members were going to die. Then he literally walked behind the curtains to his private club and he hosted a million dollars a plate dinner and dance party that night.

Fox: The price of oil has reached $76 a barrel. And the price of gas, woah, that is way up. $3.10 is the average price of a gallon, up about 11 cents overnight. Natural gas up about 5.8%. This is not helping stocks.

Fox: 59% disapprove of Trump's strikes on Iran. 56% see a long-term military conflict with Iran as likely. Trump campaigned on an end to endless wars. Is this going to cost him in the midterms?
