Trump "believes the objectives of the campaign could be achieved within four or five weeks, though he concedes the timeline could stretch longer. The war will continue, he suggests, until those objectives are accomplished. 'I have no time limits on anything,' he says. 'I want to get it done.'"
“I guess.”
“But I think they’re worried about that all the time. We think about it all the time. We plan for it. But yeah, you know, we expect some things. Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”
“Asked whether Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home, Trump acknowledges the possibility. ‘I guess,’ he says.”

Trump to Rubio: "Your next one is gonna be Cuba. He's waiting but he says, 'Let's get this one finished first.' We could do them all at the same time, but bad things happen."
Tweet by ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl @jonkarl In a lengthy phone interview, President Trump marveled at the success of the military operation against Iran and expressed no concern about what comes next. "I hope you are impressed," he said to me. "How do you like the performance? I mean, Venezuela is obvious. This might be even better. How do you like the performance?" I said _nobody questions the success of the military operation_, the concern is what happens next. "Forget about next," he answered. "They are decimated for a 10-year period before they could build it back." 3:26 PM · Mar 5, 2026 · 71.8K Views https://x.com/jonkarl/status/2029654727093325965
US journalism 🤩🫡
I think I just heard Trump describe the war in Iran as "a little detour"
Fun!
Zero justification or elaboration, just YOU CAN COUNT ON ME MR. TRUMP SIR
Iraq's first lady, Shanaz Ibrahim Ahmed, a political/humanitarian figure from a prominent (& very political) Sulimaniyah-rooted Kurdish family closely tied to the PUK, coming in hot with a free history lesson for people who think Iraqi Kurds might be unquestioningly game for more US bait-and-switch.
"It could last six days, six weeks. I doubt six months."

Official statements placing U.S. forces in the area – along w/ analysis of social posts, videos, sat. images – suggest U.S. forces bombed a school in Minab, Iran during strikes targeting an IRGC base. Over 150 were killed, Iranian officials say. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/w...
Secretary Kristi Noem @Sec_Noem Thank you @POTUS Trump for appointing me as the Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas. @SecRubio and @SecWar are incredible leaders and I look forward to working with them closely to dismantle cartels that have poured drugs into our nation and killed our children and grandchildren. The Western Hemisphere is absolutely critical for U.S. security. In this new role, I will be able to build on the partnerships and national security expertise, I forged over the last 13 months as Secretary of Homeland Security. We have made historic accomplishments at the Department of Homeland Security to make America safe again: we delivered the MOST secure border in American history, 3 million illegal aliens have left the U.S., we have located 145,000 children, FEMA delivered disaster relief at a 100% faster rate, we ushered in the golden age of travel, saved the American taxpayer $13 billion and revitalized the U.S. Coast Guard.
oh my goodness she seems to think Special Envoy for the Shield is a real job
Isn't... China... a geopolitical adversary of the U.S.?

How are the Iranians target a U.S. oilfield in... Iraq.
You create a target-rich environment for your adversaries when you gobble up every corner of the globe.
An Iraqi oilfield operated by an American firm, you say?
Although, of course, Trump could try to do something illegal, I do not believe Trump could appoint Mullin as "acting" DHS Secretary under either the Federal Vacancies Reform Act or the DHS order of succession.

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.
It's still going:
This is a lesson about the price of hubris. The moral is, if you’re a government official you can’t get away with stealing $140 million and buying a luxury sex plane. You have to settle for stealing $2 million and buying a chauffeured escalade with a tinted privacy screen between you and the driver
telling myself that this clip was the last straw
It's vitally important that Kristi Noem still be held accountable
