I hope that if there's one thing that this Iran conflict and the explosion of online misinformation about it has laid bare for most people is the significance of content verification and fact-checking in the digital age.
AI cannot replace human verification, at least not just yet.
Trump doesn't bother to look for facts or cite them accurately. Bunch of voters thought that was fine.
In fact, they resented people who actually knew stuff about health, the environment, race, immigration, etc., so felt a good portion of those eggheads were disrespecting them.
And here we are.
Sorry, that was the original poster who said something about minesweepers. It was you who said it doesn't matter. Well, okay.
So, we shouldn't care about facts, we can just go with vibes. But if you bothered mentioning minesweepers and whatnot, what was the point?
Don't mean to be rude, but it sounds like you wanted to sound like you knew what you were talking about, but don't actually care.
There are 5 other Dem candidates. Parnas isn't even on the list yet. ballotpedia.org/Florida%27s_...
Why do you assume Parnas is the only Dem running?
But that doesn't account for the near religious devotion that party loyalty means in this era. If you vote against a Republican - you vote against Trump. If you vote for a Dem, that is heresy for a MAGA Republican.
Okay, if you're talking to yourself, "we just know," is good enough.
Just be aware of what your noise does to the information landscape. Real information is drowning in infotainment from no-name accounts. Nevermind half-truths &propoganda from networks & the government. You're another problem.
DOGE said it was cutting government waste.
So they gutted USAID — the agency that feeds starving people around the world.
Meanwhile the Pentagon spent millions on lobster, ribeye, and even a $98,000 piano.

Who knew Trump was a Crash Test Dummies fan?
If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.
Specifically, I was looking for the information about the minesweepers supposedly unavailable.
This is why I made my point - can't share this without a link. It undermines the belief that facts matter, and people should be diligent about verifying them.
Went to MS Now. Did a search for "retired military experts." Your information did not come up -- however there were 316 results, and I didn't look through any but the top and the newest.
A former top Chevron executive was super tight with Delcy Rodriguez. He told the CIA to back her instead of Venezuela's democratic opposition,. The agency told Trump.
Now Ali Moshiri is ready to cash in. He's raising $3 billion to get back in Venezuela's oil game.

Months after posting financial disclosures online, the Trump admin does not appear to have sent the financial information for some top White House officials to the Office of Government Ethics for a second and often more serious review — including Trump border czar Tom Homan.
Congressional Democrats are opening a probe into millions of dollars private companies — including ABC, Meta, Paramount, and X — pledged to Trump's planned presidential library, asking what happened to the money after the original fund was dissolved last year. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Trump's new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullin, employed a supervisor at his family plumbing business who illegally stored weapons and ammunition in an office safe in 2009.
The employee was previously convicted of felonies, barring him from owning firearms.
Josh Nass, a lawyer and lobbyist with connections in Trump’s orbit, has been arrested by FBI agents and charged with attempted extortion, according to court papers.
Nass had recently represented Joseph Schwartz, a former nursing home executive pardoned by Trump late last year.
“and the UK and others.”
This would be a shareable post if it had a link to substantiate the claim.
Reuters: Trump tells Britain he does not need its help to win Iran war By Costas Pitas and Andrew Macaskill March 7, 20264:55 PM CSTUpdated March 8, 2026
@realDonaldTrump on Truth Social: Many Countries, especially those who are affected by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe. We have already destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military capability, but it’s easy for them to send a drone or two, drop a mine, or deliver a close range missile somewhere along, or in, this Waterway, no matter how badly defeated they are. Hopefully China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK, and others, that are affected by this artificial constraint, will send Ships to the area so that the Hormuz Strait will no longer be a threat by a Nation that has been totally decapitated. In the meantime, the United States will be bombing the hell out of the shoreline, and continually shooting Iranian Boats and Ships out of the water. One way or the other, we will soon get the Hormuz Strait OPEN, SAFE, and FREE! President DONALD J. TRUMP 3.18k ReTruths 12.1k Likes Mar 14, 2026, 9:04 AM
March 8: Trump tells the UK he doesn't want their help
March 14: Trump asks the UK for help
This move is so incredibly dumb, and ultimately so destructive to our understanding of extreme weather and of climate change, that it could only have come from the Trump administration. Truly dangerous idiocy. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/c...
This moment from Feb 2025 may go down as one of the most prescient exchanges in modern diplomatic history. Zelenskyy warned Trump that while the United States may feel protected by an ocean today, a time could come when America would need help in war. Trump scolded him instead.
Yeah, there were no wealthy Jews in Germany before Hitler. 🙄
Weird he doesn’t post stuff like that here.
And your answer was what now? Looked pretty clear to me the Democratic Party would tear itself apart choosing another candidate. Biden exited last minute and told us it would be Kamala. Didn’t work but there wasn’t a better easier way
Almost like it was a mistake to alienate all of our allies with idiotic trade wars, and then launch an actual hot war where we needed their help gcaptain.com/trump-calls-...
There is absolutely no bottom.

NPR is reporting that Oklahoma governor Stitt met with Trump to discuss Mullin's replacement. That's how much control Trump has over Congress that Stitt needs Trump's agreement before appointing someone.
That is not how the Constitution works.
NOT. AT. ALL.
