Iran has been attacked by US and Israel when peace was within reach It appeared that diplomacy was working, but the strikes by the US and Israel now risk destroying any chance of a peaceful resolution of this crisis.

It’s so obviously a ploy to distract from his woes at home theconversation.com/iran-has-bee...

The conflict in the middle east was caused by a country that believes women have fewer rights than men, that has a corrupt leadership, kills its own citizens and feels it is ok to attack or claim other countries with impunity.

Historian here destabilizing the Middle East and then walking off while people kill each other in brutal ways. There is a precedent here: Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan. Then complain about the people who are refugeed and come to your country.

Bombing Iran and starting a war to distract from the released Epstein files. Just imagine the content of that which the DOJ is illegally withholding from the public and has not been released. What kind of distraction does that necessitate?

Beyond frightening.

JD Vance in 2024: "β€ŠOur interest, I think, very much is in not going to war with Iran. β€ŠIt would be a huge distraction of resources. It would be massively expensive to our country."

β€˜I don't know how many times I had to say I did not know Jeffrey Epstein’

They grilled Hillary Clinton for 6 hours today under Oath. She’s a former FLOTUS who never met Epstein or had anything to do with him. They ended up asking her about UFOs. πŸ›ΈWouldn’t it be smarter to Question THE CURRENT FLOTUS, who has known Epstein for decades, and partied with him REGULARLY?

Here’s a thought for James Comer.

There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton.

It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein.

You know, just to see what she knows.

Millions of workers β€” including at Walmart, Amazon, & McDonald’s β€” rely on food stamps, WIC, and Medicaid, because pay doesn’t cover basics. Corporate profits soar while taxpayers pick up the bill. Low wages aren’t just a worker issue β€” they’re a taxpayer subsidy to big business.
