Trump's new nuclear nightmare in Iran "This may be the worst planned war in history."

NEW: Trump launched his war supposedly to end the threat that Iran would develop a nuclear weapon. But his war has led to a new nuclear nightmare.

This is a big fat lie. And this guy was in charge of our negotiations with Iran that involved all sorts of technical details? It’s truly amateur hour.

The pro-MAGA press can’t agree on how to cover Trump's war on Iran A combination of fight, flight, fawn, and freeze.

It was inevitable that one day, the reporters, influencers, and others in the MAGA-flavored press would be called upon to cover an actual news event that does not always reflect favorably on the president.

With the invasion of Iran, that day has now arrived.

What happens when a mad king discovers that the war he launched is not going to go the way he envisioned it? Asking for a friend.

Yes, let’s take the war criminal who is a proven liar at his word. What a masterful negotiator this guy must be.

The CW on Kennedy is that he's a smart man who pretends to be stupid. Maybe that's right. But if the senator thinks he's mocking Bier in this exchange, he's lacking some pretty basic self-awareness.

AI fakes spread disinformation. Is the distrust they create even worse? Manipulated images undermine our shared reality—and the democracy built upon it.

These far-right conspiracists are pushing Trump to take control of voting Election deniers are lobbying the president to declare a national emergency.

Guess who's pushing Trump to declare a national emergency & assume control of the 2026 elections? A bunch of far-right conspiracy theorists & election deniers. They failed to convince Trump in 2020 to seize voting machines. Might they succeed this time?

He was chief of staff to Elaine Chao, who is married to Mitch McConnell. I think I see the reason right there.
