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.

4/ Ok, so what ARE the goals? It seems, primarily, destroying lots of missiles and boats and drone factories.

But the question that stumped them: what happens when you stop bombing and they restart production?

They hinted at more bombing. Which is, of course, endless war.

3/ Second, they confirmed "regime change" is also NOT on the list. So, they are going to spend hundreds of billions of your taxpayer dollars, get a whole bunch of Americans killed, and a hardline regime - probably a MORE anti-American hardline regime - will still be in charge.

2/ Maybe the lead is that the war goals DO NOT involve destroying Iran's nuclear weapons program. This is, uh...surprising...since Trump says over and over this is a key goal.

But then of course we already know air strikes can't wipe out their nuclear material.

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.

1/ Here's what I can share:

Of course. This is why some people buy a super expensive car and then crash it leaving the showroom. They don’t know WTF they’re doing.

You can have the best armed forces in the history of the world, but if you are an incompetent criminal without a plan, you can still lose a war, and rather quickly.

All these countries or people say they have access to the files pictures and videos, any day would be a good for its release.

Trump on Massie: "We gotta get rid of this loser. This guy is bad. He's disloyal to the United States of America."

No, Massie is “disloyal” to Mob Boss Trump 🤮😡

For this administration, it’s not about doing good, it’s about looking good...even when American lives are on the line.

The money that could have given Americans universal healthcare here at home is being spent instead to murder schoolgirls overseas.

Sen. Murray: "I'm just sickened by this. To go into this war unprepared, to use outdated data, and to have this horrific thing happen where children were killed in a school sends a horrible message to those that are in a war with us and to our own constituents about what America's values are."

But Hegseth says “No more WOKE rules of engagement”. So why should killing school children matter to this administration? (A rhetorical question. I don’t think Hegseth cares who dies. 🤮😡)

James Comer Says Trump DOJ Shut Down Epstein Investigation James Comer said Trump's DOJ asked New Mexico investigators to shut down a 2019 investigation into a ranch owned by convicted predator Jeffrey Epstein.

donOLD was covering this up back in 2019.

Dozens of U.S. service members in Kuwait suffered serious injuries, including burns, brain trauma and shrapnel wounds, sources say About 30 U.S. service members remained hospitalized Tuesday after an Iranian drone strike in Kuwait.

NEW: The Iranian drone strike that killed 6 U.S. troops in Kuwait at the start of the war was far more devastating than previously disclosed.

Dozens suffered traumatic brain injuries, burns, and shrapnel wounds. At least one required an amputation. More than 30 remain hospitalized. (CBS News)

If you need the real news watch CBC or BBC. They correct every Trump lie. Which is pretty much everything he says.

Facts!

This is not how a real man behaves. But it is how an insecure man-baby behaves.

AI fakes spread disinformation. Is the distrust they create even worse? Manipulated images undermine our shared reality—and the democracy built upon it.

This new Mother Jones article explains why I now ask everyone for links to verify what they post. Fake information is coming at us all in a very big way! @hcrichardson.bsky.social @anneapplebaum.bsky.social @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social @katiecouric.bsky.social

Likely because he was involved in both foreign & US intelligence services & had a shit-ton of kompromat on US officials.

The sex ring was a means to an end.

This is all you need to know! They will lie,cheat,and do whatever it takes to stop the truth

There was a benefit that came with protecting Epstein. Once we learn what that benefit is, we can eliminate it … like some people do when they have cancer… Cut out the cancer and the surrounding tissue so it can never spread again.

I think more than what was going on with Epstein with him raping kids , we need to know why the US was protecting him.

It appears the universe wants us to see how bad things can really be … to motivate us to break free of this mass psychological movement towards destruction. I hope this disaster causes a lot of people to WTFU. 👊🇺🇸🌎☮️❤️

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

I went to Obama‘s first inauguration and even attended an inaugural ball. Yes, I had very high hopes back then!
I’ll save my disappointments regarding how bold he was/was not for another time. 😔

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.
