Yup. The only thing they planned was "Hey, let's do the Venezuela thing again, but with Iran. Let's get some really cool social media content this time."

Also saw reports this morning that China is providing humanitarian aid to Iran.
They're ultrawealthy and all they want to put up is $500 million to fight us California liberals? Come on. I like a challenge. Ante up, guys..
Any minute now, he'll be pushing Kevin Hassett out there to explain (with a smile) how raising prices will actually make us all rich.
The other thing is, he's in this war together with Israel. And even if he wanted to get out of the war and was able to somehow create an off-ramp, Israel definitely does not seem like they want to slow down anytime soon.
Initial estimates had the cost of the war at $1bn per day. Turns out it's been nearly twice as much. Reminds me of a certain ballroom.
ALJAZEERA: "Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian outlines three conditions to end the war: recognition of Tehranβs legitimate rights, payment of reparations and firm international guarantees against future aggression."
Seems like a reasonable starting point after your country was attacked.
$22M in steak and lobster tail alone..
This FBI warning is obviously BS. But I can't help but wonder if this is the administration setting the stage for something. Keep in mind this is a guy who more than likely faked an assassination attempt to get elected.
New in PN: The bombing of Iranian children is an unforgivable crime
"American disinterest in the lives of people abroad is a resource politicians use to justify cynical wars. It's hard to see on what moral grounds we claim a right to decide the fate of those about whom we clearly care so little."
Dude, I hear you. This war has seen 4 schools and 9 hospitals bombed so far, at least some of which likely deliberately. Israel is using phosphorus bombs on civilian areas in Lebanon. And to demonstrate to people that this is bad, we have to explain it in terms of gas prices. Wtf!
Likely not so much "instead". Al Jazeera with detailed reporting as to why the school bombing was likely deliberate:

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.
Shield of the Americas my ass. THIS is how you unite the Americas:

I wish other international leaders had the backbone and the moral clarity of this guy. Much respect, Spain!! πͺπΈ
"The cartels are running Mexico."
And you're supplying them with 80% of their weapons..
Even more horrifying that it wasn't collateral:

100% Beto O'Rourke 2. The "I like her, but he's just more electable" crowd is in for a very rough surprise in November. That race is gonna be a blowout, and not in the way they think. It's sad. Jasmine Crockett was the perfect candidate. But in that setup, a Dem primary is harder than a general.
Yeah. But Markwayne Mullin has watched Full Metal Jacket. Twice.
Trump has found 2 as well. Let's kick him out too.
That was a "double tap" strike on the school. Israel and Russia are notorious for this "strategy", to inflict maximum civilian casualties on survivors of the first strike and first responders. This was fully intentional and is what the regime means by "no more stupid rules of engagement". War crime.
Nobody knows what it means. But it's provocative. It gets the people going.
Big important alpha male that literally coined the phrase "You're fired!" needs to build his little permission structure to fire someone.
Exactly. And I hope I'm wrong on this, but I'm afraid the "I like her, but he's just more electable" crowd is in for a rough surprise in November. It will be a blowout in TX, and not the way they think. You can't keep alienating your most loyal supporters.
100%. Which is why I think a Dem primary may be harder to win in a setup like this than a general election. Case in point: the only time we had a Black woman candidate for President was when there was no primary.
Incredible reporting here, that establishes the timeline, the details and the motive for why the elementary school strike that killed at least 165 girls, was likely deliberate. #Iran #iranwar

And Iranian children, as Al Jazeera has found that strike on elementary school was likely deliberate and the UN has formally condemned the impact of US-Israeli strikes on children.

Sign me up for about 22 of those..
"Unlimited"? That's quite impressive. Defying all laws of physics on a slow Tuesday..
