Iβm seeing a ton of this floating around.
Itβs true, weβre bombing the hell out of Iran, but this war isnβt as one sided as theyβd have you believe. In a week, the US has lost at least two (possibly more) AN/TPY-2 radar.
We have less than 15 of them and they take years to make.

'As long as it takes': Experts predict possible outcomes of War in the Middle East

"The Gulf states have spent years trying to broker peace between Iran and the West: Qatar brokered nuclear talks, Oman provided back-channel diplomacy, and Saudi Arabia maintained direct dialogue with Iran through 2024 and into 2025. Iran attacked them anyway."

Completely agree. A presidentβs first duty is protecting Americans especially our troops. Ignoring election interference, dismissing reports of Russian bounties on U.S. soldiers, and downplaying threats from adversaries is the definition of weak leadership

Trumpedo is full of shit and should be in the sewer as a fatberg.
Ukraine has been accused of sinking a $200 million Russian LNG tanker in the Mediterranean Sea. Ukraine has been asked by the Gulf states to deploy specialists to the Middle East to assist in shooting down Iranian attack drones.
Just read "What you need to know about Sen. Markwayne Mullin". Let me help! He's another idiot from the failed state of Jokelahoma, and bound to fail upon impact. I wonder if this is not just a scheme to get Mullin out of the senate, as they already had an idiot in place we call Tommy Tuberville.
As ever YES! AOC speaks truth without fear, and says what needs to be said!
Chat and Gem and Claude, the three siblings can not agree on the Apocalypse....see my substack.
"I donβt get bored,"Trump insisted. "Forty-six seconds later," @sbg1.bsky.social writes, "he began waxing about the 'very, very beautiful' new White House ballroom heβs building, which he thinks will be 'the most beautiful ballroom anywhere in the world.'" www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...
Trump says the only way Iran can end the war is βunconditional surrenderβ. Plus he cut short a meeting because he βhad to go watch the warβ. But Republicans say we are definitely definitely not at war! How anyone with a working pulse can support this Maga chaos & lies I
will never understand.
I just left a classified briefing on Iran, and here's what I can say: it is so much worse than you thought. You are right to be worried.
CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.
Iβm old enough to remember when the Republican Party was not exactly sympathetic to Jews or Israel. In recent times, the party has become heavily pro-Israel, driven by the evangelical, Christian nationalist "end times" voter baseβ¦and ISLAMOPHOBIA
Theyβre like children playing video games. Guess what all you βbig boysβ? Youβre old enough to realize you are βplayingβ with the lives of actual humans. YOUR ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES!
Good list.
The mandatory voting on the list caught my eye.
Australia is one of the few countries that has mandatory voting AND rank voting. It works well here.
You might complain about politicians that get elected..but the ones you get are at least representative of the voters!
This is how you write a goddamn headline.
