Imagine a world where Americans were smarter and didn’t applaud when reactionary idiot Ronald Reagan made a show out of removing the solar panels Jimmy Carter had installed on the White House. We wouldn’t now have to worry about affording to fill gas tanks next month.

There is No MAGA Split on Iran And other ways the media misleads you.

"There is no meaningful MAGA split on Iran...The war in Iran is unpopular, but that is the case because of opposition from a supermajority of Democrats, a majority of Independents, and a sliver of Republicans...A group that is 'split' approximately 85%-5% isn’t really split at all."

The Republican Party’s Worst “Congressman,” EVER, Thomas Massie, is attacking GREAT Navy Seal Hero, Ed Gallrein, who is running against him in the Primary, saying that Ed became an Independent for a period of time, long ago. The fact is, many people do that, but Ed still supported me, and strongly, which is far more than Massie ever did, or does. Ed came back into the Party after he saw the Strength and “Wisdom” that I displayed. Many people have joined, and rejoined, our Party, but Massie did not, because he only votes, “NO!” It will be interesting to see what he does with THE SAVE AMERICA ACT, which is, simply:
 
1. ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW VOTER I.D. (IDENTIFICATION!).

2. ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP IN ORDER TO VOTE.

3. NO MAIL-IN BALLOTS (EXCEPT FOR ILLNESS, DISABILITY, MILITARY, OR TRAVEL!).

4. NO MEN IN WOMEN’S SPORTS.

5. NO TRANSGENDER MUTILATION SURGERY FOR CHILDREN.
 
He’d like to vote, “NO,” but on this one, there may be too much pressure, even on him, to do that. Thomas Massie, sometimes referred to as Rand Paul Jr. because he only votes “NO,” is A COMPLETE AND TOTAL DISASTER as a Congressman, and a Human Being. He is disloyal to the Republican Party, the People of Kentucky and, most importantly, he is disloyal to the United States of America! He is a MISFIT, who should be voted out of Office, ASAP. VOTE FOR ED GALLREIN, A MAN WHO HAS MY COMPLETE AND TOTAL ENDORSEMENT. HE IS A TRUE AMERICAN HERO! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Fuel prices are about to skyrocket for a while and Trump is removing restrictions on Russia selling oil. The same Russia that has over-spent on its invasion war of Ukraine. The same Russia whose leader had an hour long phone call with Trump yesterday.

The Trump administration asked Israel on Monday not to carry out further strikes on energy facilities in Iran, particularly oil infrastructure, according to three sources familiar with the matter.
Why it matters: The U.S. request marks the first time the Trump administration has reined in Israel since the two countries launched their joint operation against Iran ten days ago.
The Israeli strikes blanketed Tehran — a city of 10 million — in toxic black smoke and acid rain, raising urgent health warnings for ordinary Iranians.
Driving the news: The U.S. messages were conveyed at a senior political level and to IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, an Israeli official said. The Trump administration cited three reasons for its request, according to a source with knowledge of the matter:
Such strikes harm the Iranian public, a large portion of which opposes the regime.
Trump aims to cooperate with Iran's oil sector after the war — similar to the approach he has taken with Venezuela.
The strikes could trigger massive Iranian retaliatory attacks on energy infrastructure across Gulf states.
Between the lines: Iran attacked Gulf energy facilities with drones earlier in the war, but did not cause significant or irreversible damage.
The U.S. concern is that a new round of strikes on Iranian oil could change that calculus — and send prices even higher.
A source familiar with the details said Trump views strikes on Iran's energy and oil facilities as a "doomsday option" — something to be held in reserve only if Iran deliberately attacks Gulf oil facilities first.
What they're saying: Trump telegraphed that posture publicly, warning Monday that Iran will be hit "20 times harder" if it harms global oil supplies.
Trump wrote on Truth Social that the U.S. will "take out easily destroyable targets that will make it virtually impossible for Iran to ever be built back, as a Nation, again."

Another crazy thing is that this doesn't really seem like a joint operation but rather two separate tangentially related forces attacking the same enemy. It all sounds like there isn't really any command over this.

Kim: The vast majority of what I hear in these classified briefings can be said publicly, but they intentionally do this to as a tactic to be able to prevent the American people from hearing and questioning what it is that they're doing.

They know that the American people do not want a war

5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open.

Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

Quite amazing the way Leavitt lectures the press and insists they should be "grateful" to the Trump government. She also says media should be grateful to the armed forces, but she leads with the "administration" then quickly catches herself and switches to the troops.

Saying that you -must- be grateful is what domestic abusers and Russian prison guards do. You must take the violence and say you like it. It is a mark of fascism.
