Hegseth ignored military officials when he slashed offices that limit risk to civilians The Defense secretary’s decision to cut offices that mitigate civilian harm faces renewed attention as the Pentagon investigates a strike that killed hundreds of Iranian children.

The result of Trump’s fundamental weakness - a fear of appointing anyone smarter than himself which is a very, very low bar.

I suppose we know he wrote it. “Stoping” indeed.

God I hope we’re not resorting to tactical nuclear weapons. We’ll never put that genie back in the bottle.

We seem to be rapidly approaching a point where he no longer gets to determine when (or whether) he can get off his ride.

Scoop: U.S. asks Israel to halt strikes on Iran's energy infrastructure The strikes blanketed Tehran in toxic black smoke and acid rain

To some degree the administration is now along for the ride in this war it started on Iran.
Israel seems to have a clearer desired end state—Iranian state collapse—than the US.
The question is when POTUS has had enough and decides he wants off the ride.

If you are watching Trump's presser right now, you are seeing beyond reasonable doubt a person not mentally suited for any position of responsibility. Even running a small store.

GOP members of the House and Senate: You are seeing this too.

Finding out the other side has a say in that is going to make for a very bad day for this idiot.

Key Details of 13-Year-Old Trump Accuser’s Accounts Are Verified The newly corroborated details suggest the woman was truthful about numerous aspects of her life.

There is apparently credible evidence that the president of the United States is a pedophile. The comforting phrase “accused him without evidence” no longer fits this situation, and journalists must resort to the more perfunctory “hasn’t been formally charged.” www.thedailybeast.com/key-details-...

I do worry that Trump is going to look at the market numbers and send in the navy escorts to the SoH in a totally reactionary manner that the IRGC has been hoping for.

Good primer on Gulf air defenses and intercept capabilities.

Supposedly they were fired from Lebanon, into which the IDF already had established a ground presence. Add to that the fact that US/Israeli officials have openly acknowledged that some of their drones are reverse-engineered from Russian Shaheds so determining the culprit may be difficult.
