β€œThe net effect of this is to adversely impact what is the most important historic β€” the most identifiable historic β€” house in the entire United States. This is permanent, what it will do to the White House.”

Five reasons Trump has left America vulnerable to a terrorist attack by Iran. The administration appears to have done no "defensive" prep for war. And it's spent a year shifting counterterrorism personnel to domestic immigration enforcement.

The Trump-Epstein War in Iran is likely to see catastrophe in the U.S.

For decades, Netanyahu tried hard to get three prior US presidents to attack Iran. He finally found one stupid enough to do it.

Live updates: US says it will strike β€˜deeper’ into Iran as war spreads across region | CNN President Donald Trump said most of Iran’s military installations have been β€œknocked out” and that new strikes targeted Iranian leadership. Follow for live updates.

KKKaroline Leavitt says vibes generated the Trump war: "President Donald Trump’s decision to strike Iran was fueled by a β€œgood feeling” the Tehran regime was planning to attack the US." She’s a madwoman, working for a madman.

Um, if you are writing about "Democratic leadership," how come they don't turn up until graph seven? That's way too late. The wind up is way too long. Get them into graph 3 at the latest. Try again.

Rubio Admits That America Is Fighting Israel’s War Israel’s plan to strike Iran would put American lives at risk, Rubio said. Rather than confronting Israel, the U.S. joined their war.

Whatever you think of Marco Rubio's politics, we can all agree on this: Rubio is very stupid. Very, very stupid.

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

The MAGA Crusades are underway: U.S. Troops Were Told Iran War Is for β€œArmageddon,” Return of Jesus. Led by hateful Christian nationalist Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who has enshrined evangelical Christianity at the uppermost levels of the U.S. military, airing monthly Pentagon prayer meetings.

What did Trump say in his first live remarks since Iran attack? BBC's Sarah Smith was inside the room as the US president mostly stayed on script while speaking at a White House event.

This hateful, ignorant, immoral slob said this morning in his Iran presser that three US soldiers had been killed, and he was going to "avenge their deaths" IN A WAR HE STARTED. The only true vengeance will be his impeachment and prosecution.

Opinion | Trump and Netanyahu Are Doing the Free World a Favor

What a crock: "...it’s a mistake to say that Trump got America into war on Saturday. What he did was respond to a war that Iran has been waging against the United States since 1979."

Trump Has No Plan for the Iranian People The mere act of bombing Iran will not by itself create a stable regime.

"The Islamic Republic is a theocracy founded explicitly to oppose the deepest principles of liberal democracy and the rule of law."

Not unlike MAGA & Christian nationalism.

Can't Cankles get Colin Powell to show some drawings of Iranian nuclear weapons factories? That would be so convincing.
