Only acceptable if Trump is the only such death.

I really have no idea what's going on anywhere, and I had no idea what the facts were here but it fit the narrative I haven't even taken time to think up, so I, the president of the United States, said it anyway to the whole wide world.

Oligarchs are in full time Squash the Next Election mode. Be ready, friends, we're going to need to pull out all the stops we've never had to consider to bring this sick, bloodthirsty, criminal regime down.

Trump ally Lindsey Graham issues threat to Saudi Arabia over Iran war Republican senator warns of β€˜consequences’ if kingdom does not join US strikes against Iranians

Lindsey who?? Evidently Miss Graham envies the hysterical MAGA mob of "politicians" (Fox News people, podcasters, ad nauseum) getting lots of TV time and has gone all the way overboard wanting his name in lights. He shall have it but not the way he imagines. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

"Jews don't belong in American society."

Imagine a sitting member of Congress tweeting that. You can't. Thankfully, it'd never happen. And *if* it did, it'd be the end of their career and the biggest story in America.

But Ogles can say this about Muslims without any censure.

Not a mistake -- deliberate, knowingly approved by editors, and with the specific intention of misleading their easily-misled, knuckle-dragging viewers.

As though we needed any more evidence that Fox "News" is a mendacious propaganda machine and not remotely a serious journalistic enterprise.

Still, this is pretty astounding.

Pete Hegseth says β€˜there will be more casualties’ in US war with Iran Comments from defense secretary come as number of US service members killed in conflict has climbed to seven

If only Hesgeth would be the next and only casualty.... And it is impossible to believe that only 7 Americans have been killed so far in this adventure. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The US is engaged in a war of aggression with the goal being death & destruction, a war of annihilation. They aren’t even targeting the regime but Iran’s civilians; they are destroying oil infrastructure and desalination plants needed to rebuild the country & for basic survival.

Graham is down to simply parroting the absurd talking points of the regime in power to try not to be forgotten. Try how he might, Lindsey Graham will never be relevant.

While everyone is distracted massively in every direction, Trump and Miller are putting a giant stake in the heart of democracy.

Trump’s ever-changing rationale for war on Iran – how the story has shifted Regime change, nuclear threat – or something else? US officials seem unable to land on one coherent reason for war

🚨The Trump admin still hasn’t been able to land on one coherent answer.

Some contradict each other, some contradict Trump himself.
Some – delivered hours apart – are flatly incompatible

Worth watching the whole clip, but purely in propaganda terms it seems to me, admittedly just an amateur observer when it comes to war fighting, that it may be useful to send the message to the 91+ million Iranian civilians that we are not trying to kill them.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β€” and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

US Senator Chris Van on Iran:

"Netanyahu said two days ago that he had been waiting for 40 years... to get to this point... It took him 40 years to find an American president stupid enough to drag America into this war."

"rules of engagement. No more..." He means the US military will act with unrestrained brutality and savagery to feed his tiny, overworked sense of his own manhood. The US is the most unstable, immature, irresponsible, evil nation on the planet. Hesgeth fails to grasp the fate awaiting him.
