Trump is a serial sexual abuser. He has no interest in developing a long-term relationship with the women he violates. Once he is gratified he moves on to his next victim. The same is true of his military abuse. I expect he will move on from Iran once he tires of bombing them.

Not only does Trump and Bibi's war against Iran distract from the Epstein files, it really distracts from Putin's even more deadly and destructive war against Ukraine.

NOT JUST THIS:

Two other Democratic lawmakers in North Carolina who sided with the GOP to overturn vetoes of major bills (e.g. anti-trans legislation) are also losing in their primaries so far to progressive challengers.

This could be a major night in NC.

Agreed totally. But having trouble finding roto leagues where people play all season.

So basically in attacking Iran Trump is riding shotgun for Bibi.

If there is any truth to this sleeper cell narrative, now would certainly seem to be the time for Iran to send the signal for such cells to go into action.

The US public was led to believe there were dozens if not scores of sleeper cells embedded across the US, waiting for a sign from their Middle Eastern masters to set in action well-planned terrorist attacks within the US.

For the first 49+ years of my life there was no Department of Homeland Security in the United States. When DHS was created in 2004, one of the threats that it was intended to protect the homeland against was the sleeper cell.

Screenshot of a 3hr old post from the GW Hatchet: β€œBREAKING: GW sold its Virginia campus to Amazon Data Services, an Amazon subsidiary that manages the company's data centers, for $427 million on Friday. The deed, obtained by The Hatchet, authorizes ADS to develop the campus into a data or information technology center.

GWβ€˜s student newspaper appears to have broken the story that the institution has sold a satellite campus to Amazon to be turned into a data center, which is just about chef’s kiss for the state of American higher education rn

And now he is emceeing a medal of honor ceremony in the midst of starting a war that threatens to engulf the entire Middle East.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

There can be little doubt that Trump has achieved his mission in attacking Iran. US media is no longer talking about the Epstein Files.

OK I let Claude pop my AI cherry to see what it could come up with in regard to a concept I have been ruminating on for a couple of years now. I don't much like its tone--but it might be my fault for selecting "manifesto" as the form. Still playing with it. Will report back.
