'The Military-Industrial Complex Is Winning': While Bombing Iran, Trump Says Weapons Contractors to Boost Production | Common Dreams After meeting with CEOs at the White House, US President Donald Trump said that top military contractors "have agreed t

After slashing SNAP & Medicaid, Trump is using his Iran War to line the pockets of military contractors.

I'm reminded of the words of MLK:

"A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom."

😂

The silence is deafening from most “pro-life” conservatives about Trump bombing an elementary school.

Not all heroes wear capes. Thank you!

Who knew one dipshit could wreck the global economy in a week?

Like rats fleeing a sinking ship.

I knew immediately that this hadn't been written today.

It would be far too insightful—and honest—for Donald.

In 2020, trump said it was “stupid” that America spent trillions on Middle East conflicts while our healthcare, roads, and schools needed fixing.

Same wars. Same costs.
Same neglect at home.

The only thing that changed was the excuse.

NOTHING is ever about the country. It's always about HIM.

Let's vote everyone who enables him...the f*ck OUT.

Our taxes

Our taxes are paying for this instead of healthcare.

Screenshot of an X post by Gregg Carlstrom (@glcarlstrom). The post says Trump is calling journalists to workshop different timelines and goals for his war, listing varying reported aims from the Washington Post, Axios, the New York Times, and ABC, including “freedom for the people” of Iran, ending it in “two or three days,” possibly “four to five weeks,” and mentioning “three very good choices” to take control in Iran before saying those choices were killed. The post concludes that he doesn’t sound convinced and is “throwing spaghetti at the wall,” suggesting he wants to say he solved a long-standing problem.

He has no idea what he's done or what to do now. Heavens help us all.
