Are we fkn great again?
I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran).
The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.

Itβs crystal clear now that Trump has lost control of this war. He badly misjudged Iranβs ability to retaliate. The region is on fire.
1/ Iβm going to explain to you in thisπ§΅what Iβve learned - in part from closed door briefings - about the four biggest current crises.
Trump Admin starts war.
Trump Admin shocked by consequences of war.
Trump Admin urgently (!) tells Americans caught by those consequences to get out! get out! and no there's no help coming from the Trump Admin, and good luck finding a land route out somewhere.

I donβt see a way out of this. Taking the Strait of Hormuz or seizing Kharg island will result in considerable loss of life. We canβt exactly apologize because we killed the Ayatollah. I doubt anyone besides Israel is gonna help us. This is a disaster.
With oil prices skyrocketing, take a moment to remember all the renewable energy and electric vehicle initiatives this administration tore up.

Yβall, this is what ails everyone in the Regime and itβs why we are where we are right now.
Hi all, Paul Krugman and I did a podcast on the Trump Administration and what might be happening in the bombing of Iran. Not the most uplifting of talks, but you might find it interesting. substack.com/@phillipspob...
Spot on!

Yemenβs Houthis have announced theyβll be joining the war in support of Iran shortly. Analysts expect them to shut down another strait, Bab El-Mandeb, which will close the Suez Canal. The global economy hangs by a thread.

SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : "The White House put a video on social media that depicted this war as a video gameβ¦ When πΊπΈ service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuriesβ¦ it speaks to the moral rot of this administration."
(H/T @atrupar.com )
Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."
HOW HORRIFIC!!!
Billionaire sociopath tech bros are eager to quiet educated women because we donβt like child rapists, war, hungry children, measles, the climate emergency, and their nuclear level selfishness.
How could we elect the worst person in the world to be president?! The US was never great and we are now less great than ever. We are responsible for all these murders.
Gen. Grynkewich: "What I've observed over the course of studying air power in history is that any time you attack a civilian population, you usually end up finding that it just hardens their resolve."
Still no censure of Tommy Tuberville, Randy Fine, or Andy Ogles, who are openly promoting hate against Muslims while the US is bombing Iran, killing the Ayatollah, and people like Lindsey Graham are calling it a "religious war" DURING RAMADAN.
How do you think this all ends, folks?
The good news is that if we lose in Iran and create horror across the region then Jesus comes back and fixes everything. Hegseth Doctrine.

Scares the daylights out of me.
Of all things they could miscalculate, a war with Iran is up there amongst the worst.
Strategy to end war? This war is only going to end in one of two ways.
1. The US Military takes control of every government building in Tehran.
Or, 2. Iran ends it their way.
The unthinkable idea that an American president may invoke emergency war powers and eliminate democratic government in America is not so unthinkable anymore
We have successfully bombed a school, gotten 7 soldiers killed, disrupted the world economy, and replaced an 86 year-old supreme leader with his much younger, more hardline son who is more committed to building nuclear weapons. Operation Middle East Wing is all but complete.

Jared Kushner is not a government official!
He is a horror of a human being!
