I’ve been making a list of things to remember when I cast my vote in November.

It’s a long list.

Jim Cramer suggests on CNBC that Trump could β€œbomb Tehran into the Stone Age” until Iran reopens the strait, citing U.S. bombings of North Vietnam in the 1970s. Carl Quintanilla points out to him that Hanoi won that war.

"Never forget that a political, economical or religious crisis is enough to cast doubt on women's rights. These rights will never be vested. You have to stay vigilant your whole life."

Q: A new report says that a military investigation has found that the US struck the school in Iran. As commander in chief, do you take responsibility?

TRUMP: For what?

Q: A strike on the school in Iran

TRUMP: I don't know about it

The Obvious Is Taking Its Revenge on Trump The reasons other U.S. presidents avoided war with Iran are becoming all too evident.

"By trumpeting unachievable objectivesβ€”unconditional surrender, regime changeβ€”as his war aims, Trump has given his enemies the opportunity to claim survival as victory. He’s left with no end point to a β€œshort-term excursion.” - Frank Foer

A group of us in the Senate are demanding public hearings on Trump's disastrous war with Iran with Secretary Hegseth and Rubio. And we've introduced a half dozen war powers resolutions to force the Senate to vote every day on the war if the hearings don't happen.

No one in the trump administration can explain why we’re in gulf war 3–stupid

Trump worried about midterms wants to make it impossible to vote β€”- stupid but also scary

Trump administration filled with kleptocrats β€”-stupid but also annoying

An Epidemic of β€˜Victory Disease’ The president is pointing to the American military’s excellence as though that somehow constitutes a strategy in itself.

For years, strategists have warned national leaders against the temptations of "victory disease," the belief that winning battles means they're winning the war. Leaders throughout history have made this mistake, and Trump seems to be making it now.

Pretty sure the complaint is that young Americans are only in harm's way because the deranged president launched an unconstitutional war without any effort to justify it and, apparently, with no real plan or agenda in mind.

So, now seems like the best time for all that?

There it is. Republicans want more money from taxpayers to feed Trump's insatiable desire to bomb things everywhere all the time.
