Trump thinks he can end the war he started with all-caps tweets.

He has no plan.

Trump’s War now providing a massive influx of cash for Iran’s ally Russia so they can continue to bomb civilians in Ukraine while we ask Ukraine for help against Iranian drones. Trump’s foreign policy in a nutshell.

Oil up by $12 a barrel in less than 12 hours.

Gas prices skyrocketing.

Almost 100,000 jobs lost last month.

Another war in the Middle East.

Are we great again yet?

Seems less than ideal.

The lack of media coverage about the bombing of the girls elementary schools is shocking.

The fuck kind of answer is this

Just thinking about what we could do with a billion dollars a day that doesn’t include bombing people.

Trump: “Democrats have a new word - they call it ‘affordability’. It’s a hoax!”

Close to 650 federal agents remain in Minnesota weeks after border czar announced end of operation There are still more than quadruple the 150 agents Tom Homan said there would be in the state by the end of last week.

They’re still lying to us.

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

Pure godless evil.

Pete Hegseth suggested this morning that reporting on the 6 U.S. service members who were killed in Trump's Iran war is an example of the news media 'trying to make Trump look bad.'

I’ve been notified about another death in ICE custody.

This marks a stunning 40 deaths during the second Trump administration.

This cannot continue. There must be real accountability for ICE and DHS.

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities

McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

CNN put together a montage of the regime's incoherent talking points about Trump's war on Iran

Is this bad? It seems bad.

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?

NOEM: Yes

WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?

NOEM: No.

The glibness. The indifference. The carelessness. The utter lack of planning for a war against a country of 90M. The sickness of a man who acts on whim that will kill thousands not hundreds. The horror of a regime that enables this sickness. The broken body politic that votes in such malignancy.

U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for “Armageddon,” Return of Jesus Advocacy group reports commanders giving similar messages at more than 30 installations in every branch of the military

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been “inundated” with more than 110 complaints.

One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesus…

Pete Hegseth: “War is hell and always will be.”

Tommy Tuberville: “It’s war, it’s gonna git worse before it gets better.”

Markwayne Mullin: “War is ugly.”

Mike Johnson asked why War Powers Act is being ignored: “It’s not a war because it’s defensive in nature and design.”

Not only *did* they start this war, they have no idea how to finish it.

He originally said was going to cost $200 million. Then he said $250 million. Then $300 million. But now it's going to come in under budget at $400 million.

The American people deserved to get a clear explanation of why servicemembers lives are at risk and why their gas prices are about to skyrocket. Instead, they got this.

FREE TINA PETERS!

A striking thing about Trump's social media activity over the past 24 hours is that from it you'd barely know we're at war. He's been posting news articles from over 2 years ago, spamming posts w/ positive reviews of his SOTU speech, & now posting stuff like this. The guy really lives in a bubble.

Brandon Straka: I’m at the Pentagon this morning for a briefing with @SecWar @PeteHegseth on the Iran strikes. Session starts in 10 minutes.

Here's a Jan. 6 rioter posing with a press pass before Pete Hegseth's press conference, just to give you a sense of the type of "journalists" who were in the Pentagon briefing room this morning.
