Many Countries, especially those who are affected by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe. We have already destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military capability, but it’s easy for them to send a drone or two, drop a mine, or deliver a close range missile somewhere along, or in, this Waterway, no matter how badly defeated they are. Hopefully China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK, and others, that are affected by this artificial constraint, will send Ships to the area so that the Hormuz Strait will no longer be a threat by a Nation that has been totally decapitated. In the meantime, the United States will be bombing the hell out of the shoreline, and continually shooting Iranian Boats and Ships out of the water. One way or the other, we will soon get the Hormuz Strait OPEN, SAFE, and FREE! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Days after declaring total victory and boasting that no other military could match the US, Trump is now begging other countries — including China — to send warships to stop his Iran war from spiraling into catastrophe.
A galactic humiliation.
Read about how it came to be called the Muddle East. Interesting stuff we simply refuse to learn about.

Well, his high school WAS a reform school.
Iran is urging people to evacuate busy ports that it says are now "legitimate targets".

The warming center is a community effort. Many of the people staffing the warming center were once unhoused. Today’s lunch at the warming center was made by high school culinary students. We depend on each other, as neighbors do, to make this possible.

"You’re betting on bombings, conflicts, whether or not a US civil war breaks out before the end of this year. Who’s gonna win that bet? It’s like betting on Russian Roulette. It’s corrosive in so many ways.”
Jared Kushner not only serves as a direct conduit for Netanyahu’s strategic desires, he is also one of the biggest self-dealers in the Trump administration.
He is soliciting $5 billion while acting as a White House mediator with the Middle East, supposedly representing US interests.

They want to create crises, chaos, and debt. They chug a gallon of risk for breakfast.
Every now and then, it's worth reminding yourself that every single crisis of Trump 2.0 -- the economic downturn, the chaos in our cities, the rising health crisis, the foreign wars -- has been a direct result of their own actions.
If they'd done nothing at all, they'd be coasting comfortably.
Reminds me of the Cake or Death, Eddie Izzard bit except he just commands, Debt and Chaos.
Fundamentalism corrupts truth, in every form.
The retired US army general who once led Nato forces in Afghanistan says the bellicose foreign policy Donald Trump has pursued during his second presidency can be summed up as “we should do because we can”

My wife keeps insisting this book about John Doar and the Civil Rights Division will make a great movie, but I think we could settle for a prestige drama
The biggest winner of the war in Iran? Vladimir Putin.
Even as Russia gives Iran intel to target US forces, Trump is relaxing sanctions against Russian oil, putting more money in Putin's pocket.
This war is a gift to our adversaries.
Hey Lindsey Graham: Is this who you meant when you said we were "killing the right people"?
Little girls?
Really?
Experts in international and U.S. domestic law told an inter-American human rights organization on Friday that the Pentagon’s campaign of blowing up boats it suspected of smuggling drugs in the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean was illegal.

People read headlines about Medicaid spending and pretend it’s wasted taxpayer money. Meanwhile families are fighting paperwork, evaluations, and waiting lists just to get services our children already qualified for. @wsjpitchbot.bsky.social #Momsky #Pinks
