You can tell how badly the war is going from the amount of changing stories and obvious lies from the administration.
But because the Republicans are so used to talking to stupid people, they think everyone else can't see the blindingly obvious.
🧵 Key words: "Self-inflicted"
everything totally fucking sucks right now. the president is a demented fascist. he’s wasting billions of dollars on an illegal war. masked and armed government thugs have invaded the streets of our cities. gas is unaffordable. food is unaffordable. Congress is useless. the press is useless. Republicans are trying to fuck with our system of free and fair elections. ugh. but at least we can take schadenfreudian pleasure in the fact that Marco Rubio’s feet are killing him. why is Liddle Marco hobbling around in pain? because Dear Leader is making him wear shoes that don’t fit, and he’s too chickenshit to take them off. I wish I were making this up.
get a load of this clownfuckery: Mad King Donny is making his flunkies wear the exact same shitty shoes as he does, and they're too afraid to say no. I mock the shit out of all of it, in a tremendous post like few thought possible. 'sir!' they say, 'how do you words?' link is here: bit.ly/4deDUG7
same people Trump is forcing to wear shoes that don't fit won't tell him the truth about his war:
"Inside the administration, some officials are growing pessimistic about the lack of a clear strategy to finish the war. But they have been careful not to express that directly to the president"
Trump is demonstrably the least self aqare idiot in the world
We will be on our way to be like Afghanistan women SO fast if this SAVE TRUMP ACT passes! Please call, demonstrate and be so active anyway you know!
5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open.
Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.
This updated NYT list of the key strategic sites Iran has hit separates the description of the hit on Prince Sultan Air Base from the strike there, on the same day, that would kill Benjamin Pennington (previously NYT tied the two, which is probably correct).

Throw the entire cabinet under the bus... NUTS!! 🙃
We the People reject Trump’s brutality at home and abroad.

NEW: During her confirmation hearing, Casey Means was "tailoring her statements to avoid political blowback, to an extent that past surgeons general have not. That’s a big warning sign on a nomination where the lights were already blinking bright red."

"In his second term, Trump knew exactly what he wanted and who could give it to him. In many cases, that meant not just a weak choice but literally the worst possible choice, the person guaranteed to do maximal harm. In short, we have never seen quite this collection of clowns, cranks, and crooks."

Leopards don't change their spots – but chameleons will try to blend with their environment for self-preservation. Vote him out. Flip this seat.
Per Carol Leonnig: 300 FBI agents whose specialty was national security "have left" since beginning of Trump's 2nd administration. Moreover, the DOJ's counter-espionage unit has been reduced by 50%.
Trump claims to prioritize national security, yet his actions are inviting major attacks on US soil.

This is the way a lot of us would like to think we would respond to hostile questions in a Congressional hearing, but its rare to see a witness just turn the tables on a Senator like this.

There should ALREADY have been a loud push to get both him and Jared out of here. At worst, they're the scapegoat for starting a regional war w/o thinking the most basic things through.
But yeah. Either Witkoff can't manage basic grammar or he's a Russian asset.
Like Trump, that way.
"Trump is engaged in a series of cons to try to distract from the reality about his illegal invasion of Iran...but the most substantive thing he’s considering...is to reward Vladimir Putin for potentially helping to kill Benjamin Pennington." @emptywheel.bsky.social emptywheel.net/2026/03/10/t...
The WSJ front page. Top headline is: Deleted Tweet Sends Oil Markets on Another Roller Coaster Second: The US energy secretary's X account posted about the Navy escorting an oil tanker Below is the table for Brent crude, showing a downward path from March 9, but spiking up again today.
It's like these fuckers have a competition, Apprentice-like, to see who can be the most inconceivably incompetent.

I’m sure Don and Eric made money on that little market manipulation.
Trump's War Endangers Us Globally, while Patels Firing of FBI Agents Endangers Us Domestically!
