"At a time like this, it is extraordinary that a Deputy Prime Minister here should initiate an online campaign of intimidation against university scholars, using Trumpian rhetoric and tactics to harass them for exercising their academic freedom."

When America Steps In Without Strategy, the World Burns The United States bombed Iran yesterday.

Let’s be clear: Iran’s regime is brutal. Israel’s security is real. This isn’t about moral equivalence.

It’s about strategic collapse.

You don’t bomb your way back into credibility after you’ve walked out of the room.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

End of the day, only 2 ways to keep nukes out of Iran's hands:

1. A deal
2. Regime change with a GUARANTEE the regime is a good one

2 is an impossibility. And even if it was possible, the cost would be crazy high.

So, only diplomacy actually stops them.

AS OBAMA FUCKING PROVED.

You literally don't have to watch or listen to any more trump press briefings, because he always does the same thing: LIES, blames Biden for everything, talks about random shit, yells at reporter for asking a real question, doesn't answer any direct questions.

Rinse and repeat.

Acosta: He can try to roll tanks down Pennsylvania Avenue and all of thatβ€”Hegseth can show up in a camouflage tie he got at the Gapβ€”but at the end of the day, the real American strength, the real American might that was on display over the weekend, was in those No Kings protests across the country.

Donald Trump incited a violent mob to attack the Capitol.

Hundreds of dangerous felons who brutally beat police officers with impunity were then pardoned by the President on his first day in office.

Don’t ever lecture America about law and order.
