Of the 13 KIA in Epic Fury, 3 have been women.

The bombs fall silent. The headlines fade. But the poison remains. Strikes on Iran have unleashed toxic pollutants that will contaminate the environment for decades. Cancer rates will rise. Birth defects will increase. This is the heartless, long tail of modern warfare. We must hold the architects

In cases you were wondering . . . this is a photo that annoyed Pete Hegseth so much because he thought it was "unflattering" so he got the photographer barred. I encourage all of you to use it as often as possible.

Private briefing to senators by Trump admin confirmed that it had no war aims in Iran, no exit strategy and hadn't even thought about the Strait of Hormuz or economic impacts. It's almost like they're a bunch of moronic man-babies playing with fire.

Every time I see one of these I think about the Sarajevo roses we saw in Bosnia — they used resin to mark where mortar rounds killed people during the siege. And I keep wondering if there's something similar and more permanent that we can do to mark where our neighbors were taken

How to win friends and influence people. What the serious fuck?

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

The primary function of ICE was to be the Mango Mussolini's Revolutionary Guard. Their true mission is to: 1) Intimidate voters 2) Lock up selected people long enough to block their votes, or 3) Protest suppression after the cancellation of elections It depends on how they feel elections will go.

This is brilliant. This video will open your eyes to the real costs of this war, the reasons why it can’t ever be won, and why this war will be the breaking point for US political and military dominance worldwide… and it’s all obvious. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8viE...

Yup

This is the man who is now in charge of US Homeland Security.

Trump sent our kids into a war of choice from his beach club in Florida. Americans do not want another endless, costly war in the Middle East. They want health care and lower prices.

So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for: - Who takes over; - Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation; - How to defend US bases in the region; - Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and - How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.

Jeezus fuck’n Christ. Literally.

god fucking dammit

It’s becoming increasingly obvious that Trump and the stupid motherfuckers around him thought this was going to be Venezuela 2.0 and never spent an iota of a second considering what came after the decapitation strikes and completely ignored what military advisers told them.

Iran? You haven’t even finished Venezuela. How can you have any Iran if you don’t finish your Venezuela!

Trump’s 2026 Nobel Peace Prize campaign is off to a rocky start.

“America’s warfighters will never be held hostage by the ideological whims of Big Tech. This decision is final.” To be clear Anthropic’s red lines were no autonomous weapons use and no mass surveillance.

It really is amazing how much of political punditry, *especially* elite outfits in NYC and Washington, still embrace this bizarre idea that rural spaces represent the "Real America" while metropolitan areas, where most (presumably real) Americans actually live, should be held in contempt.
