We didn't go to war for any reason we can articulate, we didn't plan for the most obvious Iranian countermeasures that have been predicted for half a century, and we forgot an exit strategy for if the thing dragged on more than ONE WEEK.

It was literally "Trump wants to do Venezuela everywhere."

This is absolutely hilarious and deserves a Veep-style TV adaptation.

Kkkaroline said Trump isn’t taking a draft off the table.
Fuck that! Over my dead fucking body is he taking my kids for his bull shit. Let all his MAGA families supply his troops. They are the ones who wanted the shit bag.

What I find incredibly frustrating is that people on here seem to think their entire political job begins and ends with voting, even when they constantly complain about how Democrats’ want you to β€œvote harder.”

No. We want you to take seriously how YOU talk about Dems. Are you helping or hurting?

Ah yes, the senator who challenged a witness to a fistfight during a hearing will definitely bring a steadier hand.

Much as the senator who keeps confusing Iran and Iraq and apologized because he "was mispoke" there will surely help restore public confidence.

"Everyone is 12" theory remains undefeated.

At this point, I think there might literally be a 7th grade boy running White House comms.

Two panel comic: First panel shows a scientist cheering at a hatching egg. Caption says "Science can tell you how to clone a tyrannosaurus rex." Second panel shows the same scientist running away from a grown tyrannosaurus rex. Caption says "Humanities can tell you why this might be a bad idea."

I wondered if they would ever run out of stuff to inject that wasn't "vaccines". Then, I remembered how Dr. Oz peddled some new "superfood" or "health directive" every other day on his show for three years.

Trump has launched a war in the Middle East without a plan, without a strategy, and without any clear idea about where it leads or how it ends.

He has no clue what he’s doing in Iran. [Cartoon by Brendan Loper]

But there is another direction they go, "dumber". There's a reason Mullin wasn't their first pick.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Kristi Noem misattributing a paraphrase of Rudyard Kipling to George Orwell really does sum it all up huh

bob gates' memoir from precisely this period discusses the insane intensity of the israeli campaign to get the US to bomb Iran and the considerable and near uniform DOD resistance to the idea

Then they ask, "How come I'm not seeing it!?" Maybe you're in a curated algorithm that knows you like seeing content about "Dems are against trans people"?

"But look at what this YouTuber says about Democrats!"

Oh yeah! I stopped watching them because they're full of shit! It's absolutely tiring.

"Democrats stay silent when Republicans attack us!"

Biden's DOJ sued Tennessee for their anti-trans laws! Biden's HHS Deputy Secretary spoke out against anti-trans laws in Kansas!

It doesn't matter how many pieces of evidence you show them, they refuse to believe.

"Democrats just abandon trans people!"

VA NJ governors got elected by pushing back against anti-trans rhetoric! Anti-trans NC Dems just lost their primary! Congressional Dems got anti-trans riders removed from an HHS funding bill! Biden appointed a trans woman as HHS Deputy Secretary!
