Hitting desalination plants is so bad. Not just evil but strategically incomprehensible. Without desalination 75% of the entire population of the Middle East will be refugees. Israel and Kuwait depend on desalination for 90% of their water and other Middle East states aren’t far behind.

The Middle East is on fire. Gas prices are soaring. Jobs are disappearing. Senile Satan is golfing again.

📌So we've blown up kids, and sacrificed our troops in Iran all so we could end up with a monster's son, Mojtaba Khamenei.
Picture somebody rubbing out Trump, just so we could end up with this guy for the next 30 years:
"One acquaintance of Mojtaba Khamenei, the 56-year-old son of Ali Khamenei, told me that he was the most dangerous man in the world and considerably more violent and ideological than his father. One thing Mojtaba is not is a religious scholar."
#EpsteinWar
It is reported that Iran selected Mojtaba Khamenei in part because Trump said in an interview that he was "unacceptable" to Trump.
So Trump has ensured the person running Iran is *more* theocratic and hates the US for killing his wife and father. Well done, Donald!

Iranian state media announced the launch of the first missile wave against Israel “under the country’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei.”

Start an illegal war with Iran, assassinate Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to topple the regime, watch him be replaced by his son, Mojtaba Khamenei. Epic regime-change fail for Don and Bibi. It's like a war run by Beavis and Butthead, but a whole lot stupider 🤡

The footage coming from Glasgow city centre tonight is very upsetting. I was there only a couple of weeks ago and still consider myself a Glaswegian born and bred. That corner of Central Station is absolutely iconic. Thankfully no one appears to be hurt but small businesses and livelihoods are lost.

Glad this was vetoed. We agree this bill injected politics into a function of government that should remain nonpartisan. Governor Katie Hobbs vetoed SB1439, which would have created a special “Turning Point” license plate and directed $17 of the $25 fee to Turning Point USA.

Trump’s massive miscalculation on Iran is going to hit hard. The NYT spoke to US officials who say Iran is fighting back more effectively than the Trump administration expected, with stronger military capability and continuing attacks on US targets.
More American casualties are likely, they say.
