Does it involve giving him Crimea and the Donbas?
This is absolutely repulsive. I don't care what your religious faith is, or no faith at all. All of us should condemn this hatred.
Trump is no longer behaving like a politician whose survival depends on public opinion. He is behaving like someone who has concluded that public opinion no longer matters.

They had to send in Major Garrett because the regular 60 Minutes correspondents refused to do the Hegseth interview, right?

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.
We are doing the Saturday show! 10 AM ET on the Mayday Network.
Trumpβs message to the American people about this war of choice boils down to this: Good luck out there. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...
Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss.

We should all feel safer now that Trump has annointed a guy who doesn't know the difference between Khomeni and Khomenei to be in charge of protecting the homeland.
There's one person benefitting more than anyone else from the United States spilling blood and treasure in Iran and (hint) he can't stand us. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...
All of this is reprehensible. We had a trial run of this last June, when my family was stranded in Tel Aviv as the Iranian ballistic started falling. The embassy told us we were on our own. We had to drive ourselves to the Egyptian border and walk across. Don't say they didn't see this coming.
Some good news, for a change. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...
Pete Hegseth and his band of Christian nationalists have been cosplaying Crusaders for years. Now that theyβve been given the keys to the military, the rest of us are paying for their weird fetish. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...
This is actually really frightening and impacts us all.

WTF is 60 Minutes doing? No evidence that Iranians want Reza Pahlavii to lead them but 60 Minutes is giving him an opportunity to make his case directly to Trump by lending him prime television real estate to call Trump the greatest president in history, so he could get Trump to install him as Shah.
Pay attention to why Trump went to war against Iran now. The primary reason has nothing to do with nuclear weapons or foreign policy. He inadvertently told us why at 3 AM on Saturday and legacy media missed it. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...
Let's bear in mind that there is a five year statute of limitations for most federal crimes. An ambitious Democrat thinking about running for president would put a marker down and say so right now.
We are at war helmed by a commander in chief whose history of lying makes whatever rationale he gives for military action now completely untrustworthy. We are at war led a Pentagon more concerned with βwokeβ culture than with understanding the region we are attacking.
How the Ellison takeover of CNN confirms what we already knew β the network Is done, because it has already lost the trust of its viewers by platforming liars and then equating facts with propaganda. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...
Friends, the worst case scenario appears to be happening. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...
Can we leave Hillary Clinton the fuck alone? Today, once again, she will be doing what she has spent her entire adult life doing: answering for her husbandβs behavior. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...
Congress needs to get Barr and Wray under oath immediately to find out what the government knew about the president of the United States in 2019 β and what it chose to do with that knowledge. open.substack.com/pub/saltypol...
That guy died when MarkWayne Mullin was 12 years old.
Old enough to remember when Fetterman swore he would not be a Manchin/Sinema and that if were elected, Dems wouldn't have to worry about having a one-vote margin. Pretty obvious that if Dems pick up just enough seats to get control of the senate, he will switch parties.
