Trump may have ordered a deadly military strike on a girls’ elementary school in Iran because the Pentagon was using an out-of-date map
At least 175 people, including dozens of young girls between seven and 12, were killed Saturday in an attack on a southern town miles from Tehran. trib.al/FdnTiNM

🚨NEW: The number of seriously injured U.S. soldiers in President Trump’s regime change war in Iran has more than tripled, the Pentagon confirms. CNN and Al Jazeera, citing U.S. officials, report the total has risen from 5 to 18 following Iran’s retaliatory attacks. At least 4 U.S. soldiers have also been killed. During a Medal of Honor ceremony honoring three U.S. Army service members, Trump meandered into a discussion about interior design and construction at the White House: – He pointed out "nice" gold drapes, remarking, "I picked those drapes. I always liked gold". – He noted that behind the drapes was a "very, very deep hole" that would become a "very, very beautiful building" and "the most beautiful ballroom anywhere in the world" in about a year and a half. – He joked the new ballroom needed to be finished quickly so the First Lady could stop complaining about the 6 a.m. jackhammers. “Will these piledrivers ever stop?” he said, mimicking her.

DOD Panics That Iran War Will Use up All U.S. Air Defense Supplies Pentagon officials are worried about the operation lasting “more than a few days.”

newrepublic.com/post/207205/...

Fact Check: Trump DID start this war.

The Pentagon confirmed there was no evidence Iran was going to attack the U.S.

No imminent threat. No exit plan or strategy.

Just more lies from this regime as they cost the lives of service members and innocent civilians.

DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:

Voters as “Votors”
Emergency as "Emeregency"
United States as "United Staes"

And, it included a non-party in the caption.

These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.
