They got lucky in Venezuela. There was tactical skill too, of course, but if the rest of the regime didn’t want to play ball, if Maduro dodged it, if a lucky shot or accident killed US troops, etc.
Trump and Co. were really feeling themselves after Venezuela, and thought Iran would be easy too.
Worse than the worst War on Terror drone strikes. By innocents killed, worse than multiple of the worst drone strike errors combined.
The White House did not directly comment on the investigation, but press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement to Reuters, “While the Department of War is currently investigating this matter, the Iranian regime targets civilians and children, not the United States of America.” Asked about the incident during a news briefing on Wednesday, Hegseth said: “We’re investigating that. We, of course, never target civilian targets. But we’re taking a look and investigating that.”
We would never target civilians except for those 150 little girls and don’t forget the hospital and of course all of the other collateral damage from our thousands of illegal strikes so far this week.
This isn’t just impeachable, this is criminal negligence and in a just society everyone involved (including the weapons officer who released the munitions) should face prison. www.reuters.com/world/middle...
“I guess,” Trump, 79, responded. “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," the president added. "When you go to war, some people will die."
It’s unimaginable that any other president in U.S. history would have such callous disregard for Americans.
Honestly, this headline quote is impeachable. people.com/trump-says-i...

"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
"The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the Middle East."
If you watched The Simpsons back when it was still good you’ve seen every scene of that film done up as a skit though.
I dunno, I feel like we probably shouldn’t host the World Cup or Olympics if we’re threatening to invade Greenland and Canada and either bombing or threatening to bomb Nigeria, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, Iran, Iraq, Venezuela, Ecuador, Mexico, and Cuba.

The Republicans’ cowardice during this Article I crisis amounts to a de facto nullification of Congress.
The Republican-controlled House and Senate refused their constitutional obligations today by not initiating the War Powers resolution. But they did not affirm, authorize, or support the war at all in any way. It remains completely illegal.
But he’s none of those things?
"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 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?"
"How do you like the performance?"
An illegal war for the sake of spectacle and the amusement of POTUS.
this chart really undermines the veracity of the “Repubs are a broad national party/Dems are in bubbles” myth that a lot of people in both parties and the punditocracy are super attached to
Corey Lewandowski is expected to leave DHS with Kristi Noem, according to Fox News' Jacqui Heinrich.
A Whte House source also says that "t was a combination of her many unfortunate leadership failures. From MN to the ad campaign to the allegations of an affair."
Nobody puts Tommy in a corner!

This is Ron Johnson erasure.
Trump’s occasional decisions that utterly and personally humiliate his idiots are always a fun guest star.
The image isn’t the joke, the act of asking Claude at all is tongue in cheek made even more macabre by the Claude prompt being less evasive and more detailed than the governments that used Claude for targeting.
This is a US Senator saying this, bros.
We should return to the constitutional process of formally declaring wars.
If we ever needed to fight a war it should also come with the tax increases to pay for it.
Elbridge Colby is the blobbiest nepo baby to every nepo for the blob and everyone who convinced themselves he was a maverick standing up for a coherent strategy for a Pacific Pivot got ludicrously bamboozled
They’re not “war criminals” they’re War Criminals (who also happen to be war criminals).
Gas prices are now up YoY, but still down on the 2yr and 3yr stacks (for now)
Right-wing Christian media are celebrating Trump’s war with Iran as a fulfillment of End Times prophecy.
