“Honey, no matter where you are, I’m with you.
When the breeze brushes your cheek, that’s me.
When the stars sparkle and shine, that’s me.
When the tulips bloom in the spring, that’s me.”
The little things.
She’s there,
in the little things.”
― Lisa Schroeder

May luck be our companion
May friends stand by our side
May history remind us all
Of Ireland's faith and pride.
May God bless us with happiness
May love and faith abide.
~Irish Blessing

With his attacks that violate international law and his policy of blackmail and intimidation, Trump has ushered in a new bloody era. He is causing suffering for millions of people, both in the US and abroad.

JD Vance blatantly lied about being on a pro-peace ticket while saying Kamala Harris would start WWIII and war with Iran.

American troops, men and women, are dying in his war, but someone thinks he’s the next Sun King building his own Versailles. How’d that end up? Oh, yeah, his favorite musical, Les Miserables.

Wow did something happen in the US in January 2025?

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countries—including the United States.

Trump’s “Warflation” Has Just Begun If he were trying to increase prices on purpose, would he be doing anything differently?

the hardest part of a two‑week military operation is the first six months

It’s almost like we didn’t think this through.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Trump never meant a word he said The Iran war is a chance for Democrats to dismantle what’s left of public trust in the president and demoralize maga.

1. Donald Trump’s rationale for war with Iran keeps shifting because he does not believe his own rationales.

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

Who benefits from Trump’s war in Iran? The answer is disturbingly clear There's no four-dimensional chess here. There's just the president, and what we know he's like.

Commentator Rachel Maddow offers one big reason: Gulf States effectively bribed him.
