Whoa. This is big. "The U.S. Navy has refused near-daily requests from the shipping industry for military escorts through the Strait of Hormuz since the start of the war on Iran, saying the risk of attacks is too high for now." www.reuters.com/world/middle...

To clarify this: the context is college sports. Trump is saying that Russia helping Iran target Americans in a war is less important than the pay structure for athletes. (1/3)

Asking the wrong question is one of the oldest disinformation ploys.

The right question is NOT whether Ayatollah Khamenei's regime was evil and a sponsor of terrorism.

The RIGHT question is whether simply bombing Iran will lead to a change for the better or just make things worse.

Trump destroys.

Dirty secret corporate media won’t discuss: US is reason Iran’s democracy ended and Ayatollah came to power The US did this!

Iran actually was a democracy from 1941 to 1953. What ended it? US and UK removed elected leader and installed the pro-West Shah because he promised to give US and UK oil. From there the US helped the Shah brutally repress Iranians for decades. My article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/dirty-secr...

Trump White House Reportedly Blocking Intelligence Report Warning of Homeland Security Threats in Midst of Iran War The White House is allegedly blocking U.S. intelligence agencies from warning Americans about rising terrorist threats at home, according to The Daily Mail.

Blocking US Intelligence agencies from warning Americans about terrorist threats here in America. Allowing Russia to give intelligence to Iran to target American soldiers.

Trump needs to be removed from office for dereliction of duty and being a threat to national security.

Dem Senators who think Markwayne Mullin is a swell member of their club and argue that the problem at DHS is not with who's in charge it's with the guy who picks who's in charge and therefore will vote for their clubmate's confirmation...need to be held accountable at the polls.

The USPS could be insolvent within 11 months. We stepped up to save the Post Office in 2020. It's time to get moving again. #USPS #usmailnotforsale

Netanyahu Finally Found a President Willing to Buy Into His Iran Dream The only way for the Israeli prime minister to redeem himself after October 7, 2023, was to turn that calamity into a region-altering strategic triumph. For that he crucially needed the U.S.

Gas up to $3.19 at the cheapest gas station I use in my area outside of Boston. It went up again today.

Israel & Saudi Arabia pushed the U.S. to attack Iran.

Netanyahu killed 72,000 people in Gaza, mostly women & children.

Saudi Arabia is a brutal dictatorship that allows no opposition.

These are the leaders who want to bring β€œfreedom” to Iran?

Does anyone really believe that?

This is murder. ICE routinely deposits released detainees far from their home just to be cruel. It’s standard practice. To do this to a blind man on a wet cold winter day in Buffalo is to know you are potentially sending him to his death.

Dept. of Defense shoots down Customs and Border Protection drone near El Paso: Officials Ranking members of the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure released a statement on the incident on Thursday.

This is how screwed up everything is. The DOD shot down a CBP drone which cause the FAA to shut down the airspace around El Paso. We have stupid idiots in all levels of all agencies thanks to this Regime.
If we go to war, GOD help us.

Blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol dies in Buffalo. A nearly blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol miles from his home dies in Buffalo after having been missing for nearly a week.

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way.

Every stage of this process - his arrest, spending a year in jail, being dumped on the streets to die - would be deeply shameful in a society that actually valued human life.
