"Was This Iran War Planned 30 Years Ago?"
My piece today for Zeteo's First Draft morning newsletter on the 1996 'Clean Break' memo that explains so much of this neocon war that we're seeing in Iran today.

Fascinating to see that all the dirty, tired, old tricks used by warmongers for the past two decades are no longer working.
Americans across the board have woken up and are tired of the BS and lies.
This US-Israel War in Iran is a political disaster, and the Trump Admin knows it.
Yep! 💯
Do I have to join some sort of a movement or can I just call it common sense to say I'd like mentally unwell people out of leadership positions if the products they make or the people they oversee have the ability to kill
Karp, Musk, Trump, Hegseth... JFC, how hard is it fill positions of power?
Beware of those who have zero empathy. They are psychopathic by definition.
Trump is wearing his own branded merchandise while attending the dignified transfer of troops that he sent into battle to die in an illegal war
He’s literally using dead American soldiers as props to sell campaign merchandise.
What kind of a degenerate, vulgar sociopath does that
“Don’t send your sons to finish what politicians start.”
Trump publicly using children for advancing his political agenda while, simultaneously, multitudes of childhood sexual abuse allegations are raised against him – is a dystopia that never stops hitting.
Some thoughts before the President's speech tonight.
If I were the Greenlanders, I'd check that hospital ship for Odysseus and his Greeks before letting it anywhere near shore, given that it's a weird creepy unnecessary oddly shaped "gift" no public reporting on what is happening in Greenland explains and Trump is Temu Agamemnon
Nailed it.
On the threshold of another imperial 'weapons of mass destruction' war, the thread below needs to be shared to help counteract the mass media campaign designed to generate support for strikes against Iran. Please, don't like: share...
Ossoff on Cobert's show: "This whole Epstein saga has exposed the lie of the very core of Donald Trump's political project. It's been a lie since he came down the golden escalator. Which is that this guy cares about or ever wanted to anything to help working-class and middle-class Americans."
OSSOFF: We worked with people who smuggled the truth out of repressive societies with authoritarian governments. Places where TV hosts had to deal with official censorship.
COLBERT: *takes notes*
OSSOFF: More and more Donald Trump's America reminds me of those places and that should chill us all
I think we are there already. We don’t want to get to the mass starvation and riots part. 😬
Amazon just saved nearly $8B on its 2025 tax bill — despite profits hitting $90B — thanks to Trump's Big Ugly Bill.
Remember: Amazon spent $75M producing and marketing the Melania movie, while Jeff Bezos gave $1M to Trump's inaugural fund.
Quite a return on investment, huh?
When bearing false witness on TV, it's helpful to wear ash on your forehead. How else would anyone ever guess you're supposedly a "Christian"?
Trump: It’s a hoax. We should move on.
Trump’s DOJ: There’s nothing to investigate.
The UN: The revelations suggest a global criminal enterprise…a number of the abuses meet the legal threshold of crimes against humanity.

The TPUSA conference became a public brawl. Shapiro called Carlson’s Fuentes platforming “an act of moral imbecility.” Candace O attacked TPUSA’s leadership. Influencers were, “attacking each other with a fury normally reserved for the left,” feuding over Israel, Qatar, antisemitism & Kirk's brand.
🔥 the only appropriate reaction to Lydia Moynihan
All I see on my Twitter timeline are reporters parsing every quote from AOC in Germany, trying to mock them for incoherence or inaccuracy, while a demented old man who can’t string sentences together or stay awake sits in the Oval, while the legacy media happily sanewashes his quotes.

GEORGIA — Trump’s DHS just bought an ICE detention warehouse for $128 MILLION… that sold for $29 MILLION two years ago… from a Russia-based real estate company.🤔
Nothing to see here, folks!
We are being looted so hard by these crooks
Obama on Trump's antics, including posting a video depicting him and Michelle as apes: "It's important to recognize that the majority of the American people find this behavior deeply troubling. It is true that it gets attention. It's true that it's a distraction ... people still believe in decency"

There’s a little counter at the entrance to middle management where you coat-check your soul. 🫥
More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...
From @wired.com: “Federal records reveal ICE is secretly expanding into 150+ facilities across nearly every state — many near schools, medical offices, and places of worship… DHS asked the General Services Administration to hide lease listings and bypass normal procedures…”🤔
Hold on murderous robber let me go to my wall and grab my antique knife. It's shaped like brass knuckles so give me a minute.
