First 6 Days of Iran War Cost U.S. $11.3 Billion, Pentagon Says

That's about half of what it cost for USAID for a whole year www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

After a series of fatal strikes involving civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan, Congress directed the Pentagon to reduce civilian casualties as part of a 2019 law. During the Biden administration, the Defense Department created the Civilian Harm Mitigation and Response initiative.

The civilian mitigation teams – cut by 90% by Hegseth – work with military commanders on target planning, and making sure that targets are actually military sites. The teams help come up with "no strike" lists, including religious and cultural sites and schools

I knew that the Department of War shot a missile into a school & killed 175 civilians, mostly children.

This is learned today:

Secretary of War Hegseth had cut the teams assigned to prevent such tragedies by 90%.

Reupping.

Not only did Trump minimize possibility of terrorist attacks on US. But White House nixed a law enforcement bulletin ABOUT those threats.

What the Trump administration says about why it went to war with Iran The Trump administration says it is "laser focused" and mission driven, but the messaging has been varied. The range of cited motivations for striking Iran now are sometimes at odds with each other.

Just thinking about what we could do with a billion dollars a day that doesn’t include bombing people.

Trump Has No Plan for the Iranian People The mere act of bombing Iran will not by itself create a stable regime.

The American bombardment of Iran has been launched without explanation, without Congress, without public support. Above all it has been launched without a coherent strategy for the Iranian people, and without a plan to let them build a legitimate Iranian state.

So, it was Iran? Not China? Not Venezuela? Not the radical left?

We are living inside the minute-by-minute delusions of a madman.

I can’t believe we’re still having these same conversations.

I can’t believe we still have to wonder if you’re laughing at us and degrading us when we’re not in the room.

I can’t believe we haven’t burned this fucking place down.

Watch all of this.

You don’t get to laugh and think you’re a good man. You don’t get to be silent and think you’re a good man. You either use your voice and speak up in the moment or take a seat knowing you let the moment pass. It’s harder in your head than in reality. It’s the least we men can do.

Hmm, a new way to punish more affluent, urban voters who lean Democratic? Why else shut down a program that helps TSA process travelers more efficiently when resources are scarce.

There is no reason to believe Trump's foreign policy is designed to benefit America or Americans

The Constitution is not a bargaining chip for a budget negotiation The Democrats demanded that Trump's immigration cops follow the law and the Constitution. The Republicans called those demands "nonstarters."

“The Democrats’ demands aren’t ‘common sense reforms,’ as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer described them. All but a few are already the law — and most of the others are either longstanding norms in U.S. policing or the foundational principles of any free society.”

Idaho families sue over immigration raid that swept up hundreds, including U.S. citizens — NBC News About 400 people, including children and U.S. citizens, were detained for four hours while they were denied food and water in the raid, according to the lawsuit.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...
