Not trying to be hyperbolic, I fear we are on the cusp of a 9/11 type catastrophe that this regime is unwilling and unable to protect us from.

Zelenskyy: β€œUkraine’s experience in countering Shahed drones is recognised by all American experts.

β€œEven countries that tried to independently use interceptor drones have realized that without Ukrainian specialists and technologies, it works much worse.”

❗️Possible lifting of sanctions on Russia would be a blow to Ukraine and a reputational blow to the world β€” Zelenskyy

According to the President, financial restrictions are necessary to deprive Russia of the resources it uses to wage war.

Throughout history, waging war has always been part of the authoritarian playbook.

Donald Trump’s war in Iran is the latest example. Watch.

As an IR professor, it's depressing that this is outperforming all others as the best theory of US foreign policy

So he’s surrendering without accomplishing any of his stated objectives while declaring victory. Exactly what we said would happen.

While Trump is sinking the global & US economy, his war in Iran helps Putin:
1. Much higher global oil prices saves the Russian war economy.
2. Trump assists by ending US sanctions against Russian oil.
3. Trump has stopped sales of Patriot missiles to Ukraine.

Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.

Trump openly lies about the bombed girls school. As Americans we make mistakes in war but they are unintentional and we own them.

Trump blaming Iran is no different than what Putin does when he blames Ukraine for attacks Russia clearly does.

We’ve become accepting of pure lies

News: Commanders across dozens of U.S. military bases told troops the war on Iran is part of "God's plan" so Trump can bring about "Armageddon"

News: so Trump can bring about "Armageddon." The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) has been
"inundated" with complaints since the U.S. and Israel launched attacks on Iran over the weekend, receiving more than 110 complaints from U.S. military personnel stationed at dozens of sites across the Middle East.
Journalist Jonathan Larsen broke the story, sharing specific complaints made by troops. One such complaint made by a noncommissioned officer reported that their commander had
"urged us to tell our troops that this was 'all part of God's divine plan' and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ."
"He said that 'President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth," the NCO continued. "He had a big grin on his face when he said all of this which made his message seem even more crazy."
MRFF told Larsen that over 110 complaints came

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has received 110+ complaints from US service members across 30+ sites about commanders using religious rhetoric

Including calling the war with Iran "part of God's plan" and Trump "anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon”

According to whistleblowers, ICE and DHS are being trained to use excessive force and violate constitutional rights. We will hold anyone acting illegally, or directing agents to break the law, accountable.

Part of my disgust and disdain for so many people in this country is that that they are so easily duped. All that fuck has to do is call some egregious bill the β€œSAVE AMERICA” act and the stupids rush to vote against their own interests, while accusing us of not wanting to β€œsave America”.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
