A reminder. Israel currently stands accused of a genocide in Gaza, an illegal war in Iran, mass displacement in Lebanon and attacking Syrian sovereignty. Is this designed to be the new norm? Shifting focus away from Gaza into more widespread chaos and instability?
Here’s “how the most powerful technologies of the twenty-first century are being folded into the machinery of violence.”

Sienna was down but she was not out
It’s incredible that the same people who made up new rules of decorum for Obama just accept that Trump can’t remove his hat in the situations that have always called for a gentleman to do so because conditions are not just right for that fragile puff of spider silk and hair spray.
Republicans have been quick to exploit Trump's war as an excuse to insist Democrats drop their opposition to new funding for ICE and Border Patrol. Demand that your Members of Congress refuse to expand Trump's capacity to terrorize our communities just because he decided to bomb Iran.
TAPPER: Do you think Stephen Miller should go?
TILLIS: Of course I do. He's a big problem in this administration and has been since the beginning

WELKER: Trump keeps calling it a 'war.' Words matter. Does the Trump administration, do you, describe this as a war against Iran?
WALTZ: I describe it as Iran has been at war with us
WELKER: So it is a war?
WALTZ: And President Trump is ending it
TAPPER: One of your points of contention with Noem was how she jumped to conclusions about the killings of Pretti and Good, but Markwayne Mullin said equally false things. Does that give you pause?
TILLIS: It gives me pause that you had people like Stephen Miller calling the shots.
I think this deserves at least as much sustained attention from US media as Claudine Gay's dissertation
Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."
More lies!
This video shows real smoke over Tehran from Israeli strikes on oil depots & fuel facilities last night—confirmed by NYT, AP, Al Jazeera, Times of Israel. Black clouds from burning hydrocarbons—not normal sunrise.
🇮🇷🛢️ CNN’s Frederik Pleitgen says black, oil-contaminated rain is falling over Tehran after strikes on oil facilities by U.S. / Israeli airstrikes.
Praying for the innocent lives. 🙏🏽
🚨 New airstrikes hit Tehran’s oil infrastructure. Reports say Israeli strikes targeted fuel storage and energy facilities, one of the most significant hits on Iran’s oil infrastructure since the war began.
TAPPER: When might escorts of oil tankers begin?
CHRIS WRIGHT: A large tanker wen through the Strait of Hormuz about 24 hours ago
TAPPER: That's great that a tanker made it through, but usually 60 to 100 a day go through the Strait
WRIGHT: Right. We are nowhere near normal traffic right now.
They just can’t tell the truth about anything.

Major good news update!! A ton of good news to start your Sunday morning.
And, I do something different today: I debunk a major Fox News misinformation piece.
They just played a video on air of a dignified transfer from one year ago to lie to their viewers that Trump did not wear a ball cap.
I’m just curious if any of the disgusting juvenile delinquents making the ridiculous war glorification videos for the White House ever served in combat. Or even served in the military at all.
WELKER: If Russia is giving Iran intelligence, do you effectively consider that Russia has entered this conflict?
WALTZ: If they are providing anything, it certainly hasn't been very effective
WELKER: Why is Trump helping Russia in this moment?
WALTZ:I wouldn't characterize it that way
WELKER: How else would you describe easing oil sanctions?
WALTZ: It's common sense to allow oil sitting on ships to go to India
WELKER: Russia will be getting that money as it wages its war in Ukraine
Leavitt: "With respect to what's happening with gas prices right now, this is a short-term disruption for the long-term gain of taking out the rogue Iranian terrorist regime"
BARTIROMO: Trump had an interesting exchange about troops on the ground. Moms are worried we're gonna have a draft and see their kids get involved in this. What do you want to say about Trum's plan for troops on the ground?
LEAVITT: President Trump wisely does not remove options from the table
We’re playing the oldies this morning here on KWMD-FM.
And then I, Jake Tapper, will host Republicans after the vote to lie about the war & platform the view that Democrats are voting against the troops. I have no agency of my own. I am but a humble mirror reflecting public opinion & conveying The Questions that Must Be Asked of The Democrats.
The FHOTUS lies when he opens his mouth, so there’s no reason to believe anything he says.
Fox News admits to airing an old dignified transfer video on its program this morning, one that did not show Donald Trump wearing a white ball cap.
The US is engaged in a war of aggression with the goal being death & destruction, a war of annihilation. They aren’t even targeting the regime but Iran’s civilians; they are destroying oil infrastructure and desalination plants needed to rebuild the country & for basic survival.
