I hope JD Vance said βthank youβ
Trump, Hegseth and the rest of this clown crew just keep writing their own indictments for The Hague. If any of them somehow avoid going to US prisons after 2028, they will never be able to travel anywhere except Israel, Russia or a few other dictatorships that donβt recognize the ICC.
Todd @ Why are we bothering with the Strait of Hormuz when we could simply do this? Explain it to me like I'm 5. Canal RIOS 508 MOUNTAIN HARD AND BIG, WATER NO UP. MANY MANY DIG DIG.
Trump is whining because Canada wonβt offer any support for his illegal war, AFTER heβs said, many times, βwe donβt need anything from Canadaβ.

When even this world champion bullshitter canβt defend the regimeβs actions, she just reverts to βalternative factsβ. Despicable.
Toronto voted for a Ford once and came to regret it. Premier Ford was shellacked when he tried to run for mayor and since has done nothing except beat on Toronto. The chances that this Ford could get 10% of the mayoral vote are slim to none, no matter who are the other candidates.
Isnβt it the perfect time to ask other nations to financially support pipelines to unlock Canadian oil reserves from US control? An international consortium of nations anxious to guarantee a safe stable supply independent of the US and Middle East would put up $$ commercial interests would not.
Even, even IF this war lasted three days, the treble effect of sleeper cells being activated would keep this war alive for a long time.
Of the many mistakes made by this *clownish administration, their underestimating of Iranβs capabilities will be talked about for years.
Since launching a war in the Middle East, the President and his Administration have come up with an array of different, even contradictory, rationales for the attack on Iran. Can Trump win a war if he canβt explain why he is fighting? newyorkermag.visitlink.me/v0yfiN
Bibi has been peddling the same story for over 30 years. βJust help me destroy [Middle East opponent de jour] and peace will last a hundred years.β
Only Bush 2 and Trump have been naive enough to fall for his schtick. One has already come to regret it, and Trump surely will at some point.
It's almost like they don't remember that Donald Trump was the president for 4 years not so long ago. If Iran was a huge problem for 47 years, why didn't trump do anything THE LAST TIME HE WAS THE PRESIDENT?
They rename him the Secretary of WAR and now he's like "No, no, what we're doing isn't WAR it's something else!"
This diagnosis is just as likely as Trumpβs other reports about his health, which of course have been 100% bullshit
Any time a politician uses the phrase βshock and aweβ, you better hold on to your wallet, cause youβre going to be paying for it.
The mission in Iran is 0% clear so your 100% support is conclusive proof youβre in a cult.

The fog of psychosis.
No one is giving Trump credit for stopping a war by starting it
We have always been at war with Eurasia!
Marco Rubio: "We went proactively in a defensive way"
Funny it took PP over a year to say anything like this. Guess being 20 points underwater in the polls can affect your viewpoint.
Yes, itβs easy to understand that an unprovoked attack on civilian targets with no discernible strategic plan or objectives is βdefensiveβ.
βWe have always been at war with Eastasiaβ
This analysis is just as likely as his other health reports, which of course have been 100% bullshit.
To reconsider a fundamental of American history, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was not an act of war, but merely a strategic strike. It needs to no longer live in infamy, perhaps.
So embarrassing for those firms who bent the knee.
Narrator: Actually, Whisky Pete, itβs exactly the same.
Any attempt to put US boots on the ground thousands of miles away in a huge and largely mountainous country without any strong domestic support would be an absolute meat grinder. See Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, etc. They never ever learn.
For the kids in the audience:
When Iraq started, they said βThis is not Vietnam.β
Weβve seen this movie before. Your children will be watching the draw-down in 15 years.
Spainβs Prime Minister Pedro SΓ‘nchez on Iran:
βRemember that one can be against a hateful regime, as is the case with the Iranian regime, as is the whole of Spanish society, and at the same time be against an unjustified, dangerous military intervention outside of international law.β
