There are only two people in the world who benefit from the Iran war. Putin and Netanyahu. Both are Trumps pal's
This is NOT "America First"

They are truly mad. Can you imagine a supertanker spilling its cargo in the narrow Straits of Hormuz, being abandoned and on fire. Than drifting until running aground God knows where

โ'This hyperscale datacentre would have the energy demand of half a million homes, an eighth of the entire Scottish electricity demand,' said Dr Kat Jones [...] who has been researching the growth of hyperscale and AI datacentres across Scotland."
A familiar story in Ireland.
In a large part the same way American politicians encourage Trumps madness...... by their muted responses
Iโm briefly in India. This is a facile observation, but Americans have barely scratched the surface in understanding how the rest of the world is reacting to this war. Itโs already an Iraq War-style disaster in the global imagination, underscored by the thuggishness and caprice of the Trump approach
Dime to a dollar they thought exercising a scheme for violent protests and/or disruption in key states if (when) its apparent that the House will flip to Democratic control
๐งตFeels like shouting into the void, but it is essential to note that the Trump/Rubio gutting of the State Department and blowtorching of US diplomatic capacity and credibility is an accelerant to this spiraling war and will seriously undercut US/allied efforts to pick up the pieces after. 1/
Trump kills everything he touches.
"Trump & Rubio dismantling U.S. diplomacy. Managing the Iran War will be much harder; so will picking up the pieces. Diplomacy is a tool of war AND of peace." "Itโs making the Iran War harder"

Map snapshot depicting the predicted relative anomalousness of surface temperatures from the ECMWF ensemble over the Western U.S. in about a week from now. A a huge region of bright orange and red colors (depicting extremely high warm temperature anomalies) is centered right in the middle of the map, and covers essentially the entire region.
Lots of buzz online about an upcoming major March heatwave for the American SW & California. And in this case, it does indeed appear increasingly likely than an extremely anomalous and even record-breaking heatwave may envelop much of the SW about a week from now.

"Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The battle outside ragin'
Will soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'"

The current DNC, the DSCC, the DCCC. Dem leadership, Democratic party think tanks and advisors, corporate Dem politicians...... all must cleansed. They are out of step with Democratic voters and the American people.

Corporate Dems (which is most of them right now) want to continue the Status Quo. That is receiving money from the same people donating to the Republicans.

Remember Trump initially tried to squash Federal agencies from sharing this information with Law enforcement
I was 100% against states breaking away from the union. But over 2 decades of observing the diseased, deluded and violent right it might be time to debate kicking some states out of the Union. Let the crazy ignorant right wing extremists try governing themselves without torturing the rest of us

Just another normal morning where the President of the United States shares completely false claims from a conspiracy theory site. Iโve confirmed with election officials in Maricopa County that this is 100% BS.
A black background graphic with the seal of the American Foreign Service Association at the top. In large gold text the headline reads โA Diplomatic Vacuum in the Middle East.โ Below it, white text lists several countries and states that U.S. embassies in Egypt, Iraq, Kuwait, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE have no confirmed ambassadors. The phrase โNO confirmed ambassadorsโ is highlighted in gold for emphasis.
Seven embassies. No ambassadors. Rubioโs ๐คฎ masterclass in diplomatic failure.

Iโm wondering when this story-considering all the classified intel Trump has given Putin over the years (both intentionally and due to his administrationโs incompetence)-is finally going to gain some traction
