My analysis: Today’s attacks show how vulnerable the U.S. is to decentralized threats. We’re preparing for the wrong kind of war. Iran’s asymmetric doctrine should be the focus.

Right now it looks as if the only way to reopen the Strait of Hormuz is for the US military to seize the Iranian shoreline along the Strait. What parents are willng to sacrifice their sons and daughters for the price of oil is the question no one is asking and wall know the answer to...

There’s never enough money for schools or healthcare or veterans.
But there’s always enough money to bomb people on the other side of the world.
We can support the democracy movement in Iran without bombing innocent schoolchildren and sending our American troops off to die.
The Strait of Hormuz had never fully closed until now. The 2026 shutdown isn’t just a geopolitical crisis; it’s an econ shock hitting diesel, #LNG, & every U.S. supply chain. I break it down here:

Earlier I saw Sen Adam @schiff.senate.gov [D-CA] on @briefingwithpsaki.bsky.social talking about what we could do with the billions being spent on this #IranWar and all I could think was the #MAGA #billionaires snapping #taxcut! like a case of tourette syndrome
Despite being seen behaving childishly at the dignified transfer, he probably was cursing them as "suckers and losers" under his breath.
From rising costs to culture-war politics, Floridians are feeling the pressure. And everywhere we go, one message keeps coming through: people want change.
I'm starting to detect a pattern here that when #Trump and his cabinet/advisors opt for an action on anything they conscously try to make the worst possible choice on what the action might be. Just sayin'......
www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...
So #Trump who consciously avoided #military service is frustrated about being embarrassed with the mere mention of fallen US service personnel as she shows up in Dover participating in the solemn ceremeony over the return of their remains in a baseball hat like he's on a field trip? Seriously?
Its almost as if #Trump never imagined his war with #Iran would have this adverse effect. If he did its obvious he doesn't give a damn. Not only that I guarantee the electorate was pretty cognizant this would happen. What clown show.
What's fascinating about this article isn't the subject of the use of the "N" word. Its the fact that it makes it clear the black community isn't monolithic. Spike Lee and Samuel Jackson have diametrically opposing views. Sometimes that gets forgotten from both sides of the political spectrum.
Another #Woodstock icon is gone. Country Joe McDoanld had died at 84 from Parkinson's disease. I was just 13 when I bought the Woodstock album: "....be the first one on your block to have your boy come home in a box”.

@mollyjongfast.bsky.social This does't seem bad it IS BAD. After killing over a 100 school girls with two missile hits 20 minutes apart and make their environment nealy unliveable is not going to make boots on the ground welcomed like liberators with open arms. This is insane.
Correction: That's "Operation Epic Epstein Fury."
An actual post from the official White House acccunt on Twitter [I refuse to call it anything else]. This is an embarrassment not only for us as a nation but internationally as well. This is juvenile level behavior and this is running our country.

In 1946 #Germany it was told by occupation forces suddenly one could not find an admitted #NAZI or someone who supported Hitler. By this time next year one would probably be lucky to find someone admitting to voting for that adjudicated #rapist and #felon.
Yes, its called obeying illegal orders. See Nuremburg trials.
The silence from the @houserepublicans.bsky.social and @senategop.govpeeps.us is deafening on this.
www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
One can only marvel at the @houserepublicans.bsky.social and @senategop.govpeeps.us remaining quiet with this revelation. So they are more afraid of #Trump than the thought of the death of US citizens. Let that sink in.
