Six years ago this week, an unplanned disaster engulfed the world. Trump catastrophically mismanaged it. The economy collapsed and 1m+ died.
Now reelected, he’s on the verge of topping that, only this time the disaster is entirely of his own making.
The results may be even worse.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says the first group of Ukrainian military experts will depart for the Middle East on Monday, to share experience gained during four years of war with Russia.
These people are, to be blunt, substantially less intelligent than they believe they are.
"The rise of Trump came at a time of relative peace and prosperity. We have no excuse for having succumbed to the degree we already have."
Well this is amusing if not surprising.
Fox tried to cover for Trump's embarrassing white baseball cap and rumpled blue suit at the dignified transfer yesterday by playing footage from an older similar event. They got caught and apologized, claiming a mistake.

Our wannabe mob-boss president.
The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed...
"How will you pay for it?"
The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts...
"How much do you need?"
It doesn't have to be this way.
In 2024, Donald Trump campaigned on two big promises: (1) he'd bring down gas prices; and (2) he'd not start any new wars.
In 2026, Donald Trump will cause gas prices to spike astronomically by starting a new war.
He's smart—and trustworthy—like that.
Oil is not up because of just the war. It’s because Trump has been bat shit crazy in how he has been talking and has made no effort to lay the case out logically.
People got real mad at Biden for looking at his watch during a dignified transfer.
Looking forward to the same outrage at Trump for wearing a fucking hat
NEW: An inmate overheard guards talking about covering up Epstein’s death. www.miamiherald.com/news/local/c...
The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.
15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.
And Trump got very mad at Steve Doocy for asking about this.
1 week
Ok maybe 3 weeks
Wait, 5ish weeks seems right
Probably until September
INDEFINITELY!
The fuck kind of answer is this
Just a thought, maybe SecDef shouldn’t jerk himself off on live television at the thought of casualties in war.
War isn’t something to be giddy about. Were the most powerful nation on the planet. We’re supposed to be the quiet professionals, not carnival barking morons.
Social media post: Image of Sen. Tom Cotton in FOX news interview. Tom Cotton @SenTomCotton Iran has been an imminent threat to the United States for 47 years. The president was right to act.
But wait. If the 47 years thing is the rationale, then why didn't he attack them in his first term?
You guys have to get your stories straight. There's a new one every hour on the hour.

He’s not wrong
Saw earlier today a post with a photo of people holding an overpass protest, with huge signs that read:
THE EPSTEIN FILES ARE NOT IN IRAN
Kateryna Lisunova @KaterynaLis 🚨“Cannon fire on sparrows” — that’s how my sources in the Ukrainian government described the current warfare in the Middle East. Basically, this is what Zelenskyy has been saying over the past few days (not counting the last four years): you cannot intercept Shahed drones with missiles. First, it’s too expensive; second, missile stock is limited; and third, they don’t always work against Shaheds. BREAKING: Trump administration officials acknowledged during a closed-door briefing on Tuesday that Iran’s Shahed attack drones represent a major challenge, and U.S. air defenses will not be able to intercept them all. The drones are posing a bigger problem than anticipated, according to sources from the briefing.
🤔👀
Raskin: “Based on what you know today, were Renée Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?”
Noem: “There's ongoing investigations…I would think you would want there to still be investigations going into these situations.”
Raskin: “You stated [your] conclusion 2 hours after they were killed."
Rep. Lofgren to Noem: You know there's an old adage that states there are no bad dogs, just bad owners. One of the questions we have is, are there bad agencies or just bad leadership?
New reporting reveals House Republicans are privately concerned about Trump's war with Iran:
“Sounds a little bit like President Lyndon Johnson going into Vietnam, doesn’t it?”
In Oversight hearing on MN, @congressmin.bsky.social says he's going to introduce a Recoup Act, to pay back money that local police have to expend because of ICE goon behavior.
Cruelty and malice beyond measure.
CNN put together a montage of the regime's incoherent talking points about Trump's war on Iran
JD Vance in 2024: "Our interest very much is in not going to war with Iran. It would be a huge distraction of resources. It would be massively expensive to our country"
From a strategic standpoint, Trump has no idea what he's trying to do, why he's doing it, let alone how.
He's just pathetic.
