Retired in 2020 after 45 years in sports journalism. I hate the GOP and Tangerine Palpatine with the heat of 1,000 suns. Still not famous enough for a Wikipedia page.

"they've been killing people for 47 yrs"

If we had journalists that did what they should be doing one would have asked him: how come you didn't do this in '17"?

Trump Went to War With Iran Because Jared Kushner Is a Fool Donald Trump’s top two negotiators have no clue what they’re doing.

Witkoff and Kushner chose not to have nuclear technical experts present during negotiations in Geneva. Several experts have raised questions about the disastrous duo’s technical understanding of uranium enrichment after they presented an assessment of Iran’s Research Reactor that made no sense.

DISTRACTIONS DON’T WORK.

COVERUPS WON’T WORK.

NOT EVEN WAR.

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.

When will that anger turn into action - refusing illegal orders in an illegal war?

To the "I didn't vote for this" folks. You voted for a convicted felon. A twice-impeached president. A man found liable for sexual abuse, who tried to overthrow an election. And now gas prices are surging, we're at war, and soldiers are coming home in coffins. This is what you voted for. All of it.

Hmmmm. I think the (fake) 47-year war actually started in 1953 with the CIA’s help.

We’re in The Upside Down when Iran News is more honest than our national media.
If the NYT said that, would Trump sue? No, because he knows it’s true and discovery would end his presidency.

That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.

These MFers need to be water boarded until they sing like canaries and reveal EVERYTHING they know.
Then lock 'em in solitary for life.

The Wizards let Bam Adebayo score 83 points.

Not one Wizard fouled out.

C'mon man.

PS The Washington Post, which used to have a GREAT sports section, does not have a single story on this happening to the home town team.

Yeah, but he doesn’t have the balls to criticize President Pedo for playing golf during a war he started.

A lawsuit filed by hero officers over the Jan 6 memorial plaque will continue after being installed years after the date required by law and hung up in a place that is no better than a basement storage area that isn’t at all visible to the public.

Fascist republicans are evil.

When a US missile killed 160 children, president shits-a-lot claimed Iran stole the missile and fired at the school. When asked why he was the only one making this claim, he said "because I just don't know enough about it".
Go ahead. See if you can make this make sense.

Yeah, but President Mission Accomplished doesn't have the balls to publicly criticize the current C-i-C for playing golf while we're at war with Iran.

Well, President Pedo has told them the Midterms will be canceled (the military action against Iran could be Step One of that) why worry about the future?

TFW you're such a stupid bitch that you inadvertently discharge awe-inspiring levels of poetic irony.

oh just a thought if your plan for overthrowing the Iranian government depends on the Iranian public rising up, you likely shouldn't have defunded the American government run news agency that speaks in Farsi.
