Tehran sees strikes 'every few hours', residents tell BBC as Trump demands Iran's 'unconditional surrender' Israel's military says it has launched a new wave of strikes and destroyed a military command bunker.

(BBC) Great that the UK's Starmer pledges support for Saudi Arabia during the chaos in the Middle East. Stunning to see independent and free-thinking EU members acting positively and independently, as we, the US people, would expect. Except "KING" Trump of course.

Rev. Jesse Jackson's funeral today, those showing up included: The Bidens, Barack Obama, The Clintons, & Kamala Harris. In Chicago, Pres Obama gave a terrific eulogy.

Trump did not make the time. Yes, I know. NO SURPRISE AT ALL. Not important to him.

Opinion | Trump’s Fantasy Is Crashing Down

(NYTIMES; FREE) Great opinion piece that speaks to one of Trump's MANY faults...of thinking that he is SUPERIOR and INVINCIBLE. The folly of starting a war in the Middle East involving 15 countries at present, with no endgame in sight. What an absolute IDIOT.

DOJ Says Epstein Files About Trump Were Mistakenly Held Back as Duplicates The government released FBI interview notes detailing a woman’s unverified allegations against the president.

(WSJ) Given how often this Admin lies, it is not easy to listen and agree with them...about "misreading or losing" the recent Trump/Epstein files they mysteriously found. That is the challenge in "raising children" likeTrump: when do they tell the truth?

Kristi Noem Is Out. Will Trump Stop There? Plus, Pete Hegseth finds his voice and Sen. Markwayne Mullin finds himself picked to lead DHS

(WSJ) Yes, with Noem now out of the Trump Cabinet, if Trump returns to the effort he showed in his first term, who might go next? We'd love to see MANY of them go, but what is realistic? My money is on Bondi, given the heat that she has attracted. Stay tuned...

3 pledges Trump has made on Iran Trump's ambitions to reshape Iran's political and economic order extend beyond military action.

(AXIOS) You may be like me: tired of reading BS from Trump. The attachment gives you a bit of flavor, along with other options from analysts and experts. Trump is really insufferable.

SOUND ON, one of the all-time GREAT groups! Whew....I do miss them.

DOJ Official Pushes for Cases Against Cuban Leaders, as Trump Eyes Regime Change The administration used criminal charges against Venezuela’s Maduro as justification for his ouster.

(WSJ) You really have to wonder WHY Trump thinks he is the KING of all countries near and far? He is just impossible to live with, near, or even know or have heard of. CREEP EXTRAORDINAIRE.

How the Dash to Collect Tariff Refunds Will Play Out While a judge’s decision has raised hopes, it could take months before money hits anyone’s bank account.

(WSJ) An update after the one a few days ago, that the Court of International Trade is stepping up to their task of returning funds to those individuals/companies who have filed to get tariff money returned. This is all based on the Supreme decision a few weeks ago.

Impeachment, conviction, and removal only work when Congress has a spine.

Like clockwork.

So Rep. Alford, you believe that the American public must get ready to "make a little sacrifice" for the Trump War in Iran. All the polls show that Americans don't WANT & don't support this war. How do you square your statement about US making a sacrifice? BTW, what sacrifice is TRUMP making?

Trump demands "UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER" from Iran It's the most unambiguous statement of U.S. war aims since the operation began seven days ago.

(Axios) Trump has now CHANGED his goals for the Trump IRAN War, insisting that Iran must no unconditionally surrender for the war to end, hence NO negotiation. Wonder what TACO TRUMP will want tomorrow?

Exclusive | Kuwait Cuts Oil Production as Storage Fills Up The cuts signal a broader storage crisis that poses new risks to the global market.

(WSJ) Trump's War continues to strike. Countries like Kuwait are now pumping less crude out of the ground because they are running out of storage...while the Straits are blocked and they can't ship oil out. Wait for the TRUMP lies as gas prices go through the roof.

U.S. Lost 92,000 Jobs in February The U.S. lost 92,000 jobs in February, the Labor Department said Friday, missing expectations.

(WSJ) The US LOST 92,000 jobs in February, well below the January gain of 126K and the February forecast of 50K GAIN. Gonna be hard for Trump et al to lie their way out of this one. And yet, like always, they will spew lies big time.

ICE is STILL in Minnesota and STILL terrorizing communities. Reporters that say otherwise are either uninformed (which....) or lazy (which... ) or just repeating regime lies (which... is also extremely bad).

People are still missing, people are and will be traumatized, businesses demolished...

Appalling, just horrible. Any other administration would have taken him by the hand on this day of the speech and walked him to the curb: "YOU are done here.". Then again, this is the Trump Admin.

Length of Middle East Conflict to Determine Impact on Asia, Says ADB’s Chief Economist The economic impact of the Middle East conflict on Asia will largely depend on how long it drags on, the chief economist of the Asian Development Bank.

Texas GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales Won’t Seek Re-Election The announcement came as House GOP leaders asked the lawmaker to quit his campaign after he admitted to an affair.

Kristi Noem's ouster isn't enough. Democrats say they want her to pay. Even though Trump ousted Noem as homeland security secretary, Democrats say they plan to still push for investigations and possibly even impeachment.

Kristi Noem's sacking isn't enough. Democrats say they want her to pay. They may have to wait until after Nov 26 voting when they take both Houses, but it seems the DEMS are itching for more punishment.

You may be correct. But, I am convinced that Trump cannot and does not think longer than five to ten minutes ahead. If he did, he'd be sane, have a brain, and could hold a thought for a few days. NOT this guy. Not possible.

Live Updates: As Iran war expands, Trump says he must have a role in choosing the country's next leader President Trump said he must have a role in choosing Iran's next leader and called the son of the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei "unacceptable."

(CBS) Yes, the baloney from Trump regarding IRAN. NOW, Trump insists that he must have a role in choosing the new leader in Iran. What gives him that right? Should any Country have a weight in our Presidential choice? What BULLSHIT. Trump is an imbecile.

Horrible, just horrible. Thanks for your lawlessness, DonOLD.

Wretched, criminal, and Trump doesn't even work hard to find such people, as INEPT as HE IS.

Trump always had great judgment of people's character and ethics....NOT, NOT, NOT.

Good night. Does Trump have NO JUDGMENT, or better JUST the judgment of a five-year-old who thinks of NO ONE ELSE BUT HIMSELF.

After significant heat thrown at Noem during Congressional hearings, she is now out of THIS job. Relief. Now to see how her replacement handles the job.

Quite important to click, open and read the AOL doc below, re: three interviews related to sexual assault allegations agains Trump. Unclear if more redations will be corrected. Also unclear if any charges will be filed soon or later.

Congress declines to halt Iran war Lawmakers will effectively be spectators in the president’s decisions around the Iran war after both the House and Senate rejected efforts to curb Trump’s power.

(Politico) For the second time, the cowards in the House refused to vote to STOP Trump in his IRAN war. Most of those voting to support Trump were GOP members. Wonder if they believe the POLLS that say: some/many will be out of work in November.
