Leaving allies in one part of the world vulnerable because you didn't plan *before* you attacked in another part of the world is rank incompetence.
And when a war is "almost over," you don't move missiles from Asia to the Middle East.

RON JOHNSON: 650k people that are at large in America have committed crimes. Mr Bier, you're shaking your head
BIER: They're not at large. They're in prison. They're in prison where they should be
JOHNSON: They're not detained!
BIER: They're detained by the states. They're not detained by ICE
150+ probably troops injured and 8 dead..itβs a war.
The problem is not framing.
Q: Senator Britt just told us they have offered to sit down with Democrats--

Dozens of documents detailing FBI interviews with an Epstein victim who accused Donald Trump of sexually abusing her as a high schooler are being kept under wraps.
Schumer on the SAVE America Act: "It is not about showing ID when you show up to vote. It's about the voter registration rolls, destroying them, purging them, not letting people know, and taking the rights in an algorithm but together by DOGE and Musk -- it's an outrage"

WTF!

Leavitt confirms that the current "ballpark" total of US soldiers injured fighting Iran is 150
Sen. Coons: The clearest winner from this war in Iran is Russia. It's stunning that Trump is on the phone with Vladimir Putin and spending more time consulting with him than he is with Congress and the American people.
BREAKING: Senate Democrats demand public testimonies from Trump administration on Iran war.
MS NOW's Kevin Frey has the latest.
Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"
Leaders of both parties should be calling for Witkoff's immediate resignation after these remarks. He is a Russian patsy, a traitor, and this has just gone for too long. It is has to end.
We can take them at their word? Is he high?!

MERKLEY: So when the VP said 'ICE agents have absolute immunity' in violating people's civil rights, he was effectively correct?
BIER: Effectively, yes. Right now as the law stands.

Murphy: βI think itβs likely the U.S. carried out this attack on this school β I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact that this was one of our 1st targeting decisions, that this mistake was made on the 1st day of war β I think speaks to the incompetence of our leadershipβ
Warren: "It is still the case that the Trump admin cannot explain the reasons we entered this war, the goals we're trying to accomplish. The only part that seems clear is that while there is no money for 15m Americans who lost their healthcare, there's a billion a day to spent on bombing Iran."
Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
How many alternative rationales have been offered at this point?
A March 3 satellite picture (sourced to Planet Labs) of a March 1 missile strike on Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. The "damaged structure" which is marked, is close to a Radome, also marked.
In first report on Russia helping Iran w/targeting, WaPo focused on strikes in Saudi Arabia. NYT earlier revealed this strike on Prince Sultan Air Base--which they later implied was the strike that would lead to Bejamin Pennington's death.
We need to know if RU played a role in killing Pennington.
Rand Paul: "As far as reasons for the war, there have been many different ones floated, but none have been very convincing... we were told their nuclear weapons were obliterated, and now we're told their nuclear weapons are just moments away from being a bomb. I don't think the arguments are valid."
Marching orders are given. "That school had it coming." See it parroted by influencers and media outlets.
