Even by Trump standards of galactic batshittery, that press conference was an all-timer.
SUMMARY:
- The war is over & just beginning.
- We may have sold Tomahawks to our enemy so they could kill their own children.
- The new leader of Iran must be eternal & internal
- No mutilisashion of children.
If you are watching Trump's presser right now, you are seeing beyond reasonable doubt a person not mentally suited for any position of responsibility. Even running a small store.
GOP members of the House and Senate: You are seeing this too.
This sort of thing is always hit with, "LOL he doesn't care he'll never face voters again." In fact, he does care. He has privately said he fears being impeached by a Dem House. And I don't know who I need to tell this to, but presidential approval matters in midterms.
Trump is in serious trouble. His war is deeply unpopular. He's now in the toilet on the economy, immigration, and national security. His public standing is getting close to being broken in an irreparable way, akin to Bush after Iraq and Katrina:

The Iranian Red Crescent has sent a request to the International Criminal Court calling for a criminal investigation based on the US/Israel's systematic attacks against civilians and civilian objects including:
6,668 civilian structures
5,535 homes
14 hospitals
65 schools
"I have been in a lot of briefings w/govt officials & other experts ... over the last 9 days. It's as if we have learned absolutely nothing.
We have to make the right policy choice, pressure the Trump Admin to find an off-ramp & get us out of this war."

Tarrio is, quite literally, a pardoned terrorist.
I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

Doing something about this situation will require figuring out pressure points (the Gulf monarchs, Wall Street, Republicans facing extinction, China), that might make him "care" or at least act.
The tyrant is now flaunting that he has no clothes.
The Department of Justice released a batch of previously unreleased documents from the Epstein files that include notes from FBI interviews with a woman who says she was assaulted by President Trump when she was a minor. https://to.pbs.org/47dPTQA
Hello-
I am running this 5K tomorrow and I’m soooo close to my goal of raising $5K for @hofoco.org.
Even if you can’t donate a repost would be 😍. We rescue millions of pounds of good food about to be wasted each year and get it to those who need it. Help the environment and help fight hunger 🤝
Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.
Trump has already spent nearly $7 billion on his war of choice, according to independent analysis—2x what America spends on housing homeless veterans every year.
It’s disgusting. I’m going to keep talking about how his broken promises are hurting folks here at home.
This mfer
And she's out, not even an hour later.
Trump is presenting Mullin's appointment as automatic, but he still has to go through Senate confirmation hearings like everyone else. They're usually deferential to their colleagues, but I think this guy for this post in this election year might prompt issues
So he appoints buffoons and then gets mad when they're buffoons? He's a slow learner 😆
Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.
This is a great article and got too little attention when it first came out. @propublica.org is doing amazing work.
Remember this when Donald Trump tells you we can’t afford health care.
Hegseth to The Hague
Thanks, looking forward to it.
Done. My 12 yr old grandson is really getting into football. This will help with our conversations!
A handful of Republicans could end all of this. And there are quite a few who hate this war, masked terrorists in our cities, flouting of Congress, corruption, etc.
But unless they prove otherwise they’re all cowards.

They're gonna spend the next two+ months beating the crap out of each other, while Dems unite around Talarico.
Is this a conflict of interest or sumthin 🙄
Thank you so much. I read your blog often especially when people I knew were deployed.
