Reminder: The Iranian Navy Band was on that ship. Still a military ship, but in terms of legitimate targets … highly suspect.

If you don’t want the price of oil to spike, don’t start a major war with Iran.

Representative Frost was fabulous in this interview.

A Noem aide spent $3 million on pickup trucks emblazoned with the ICE name & logo, which ICE agents -- notoriously averse to advertising their presence -- will not drive, so they're just sitting in a lot, useless. The contract went to a Trump donor who owns a regional Chevy dealership.

Regime collapse looking pretty unlikely at this point. The U.S. hasn’t deployed the resources to do regime change. Limited military action can’t end nuclear ambitions—if anything, incentivizes them—nor destroy the knowledge. So yeah, it’s looking like a lot of death and destruction for nothing.

Venture capitalist will take over? Is this Twitter Pt II?

Tomahawks are only used by us and our closest allies (UK, Australia, Japan)

Imagine being the parents of the hundred plus kids killed by a U.S. missile.

Just as an aside … can we can the term “sleeper” as in “sleeper cell” or “sleeper assets”? It’s so archaic and lame. A decade plus in actual counterterrorism work, never used the phrase once. Also, now we get to see how prepared a completely gutted FBI and DHS are for actual terrorism.

There are some Democrats buying into this scheme.

me paying $30 in gas to buy imported things that have been hit with tariffs bc joe rogan is learning about politics at age 58

All of this has been part of the playbook for years. It’s why no one has gone this far. Look, I get the earlier Israeli campaign altered the math a little bit. But now that risk will soon far outweigh any reward preached at the time. This gets dirty. Really really dirty. Everywhere.

the president has no idea what he has set in motion. none. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

That is correct.

Will Congress abdicate this one too?

Soooooooo, we still get an Ayatollah Khameni … Because the U.S. planners took out the other options … okay … got it … great work, MAGA … 😩

Now expand that to every single federal agency. DOGE had a price tag too.

New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.

Slippery slope ahead.

Pleased to share some thoughts on the administration’s shifting justifications and objectives in Iran—including to push back on Rubio’s “Israel made us attack Iran” argument. www.barrons.com/news/trump-s...

The domestic terror threat is HUGE. This is where the FBI is key, but Ka$h won’t get it.

I can explain it right now tbh, they don't consider the rest of us human much less American. It's not national suicide, it is a family annihilation perpetuated by people who lied and grifted and stole they way into power and are using it to consolidate resources ahead of the climate catastrophe

I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

Trump is burning everything down, even the US/UK alliance.

Not when Stephen Miller calls the shots.

I believe this is called an intelligence operation. In this case, using a senator as an asset.

US strategic analysis of Iran:

Speaking of ground troops, time for a geography lesson🤓 The magnificent Iranian plateau is super rugged with massive northeast & southwest running mountain ranges with both ice and (rare) salt glaciers but also two expansive salt deserts (one being one of the hottest spots on earth)

Yes. And we have to talk about this now, because talking about it is the first step to making it seem like a callous crime rather than a surprising emergency.

This was clear from the jump, but the Venezuela invasion going as smoothly as it did, from a pure operational perspective, is going to prove catastrophic in the long run.

Were they tubas or IEDs? Drummers or suicide bombers? Conductors or terror leaders? Apparently someone passed shitty intel that convinced Hegseth and the NSC team it was the latter for all three. Team Trump, getting us from unreliable intel to kinetic actions to war crimes. Heckuva job, Petey.

Been saying this since the story first broke last year.

Yeah, that always ends well … just send in some military advisors and small group to keep them safe. See what happens in a week.

“My orders came through. My squadron ships out tomorrow. We're bombing the storage depots at Daiquiri at 1800 hours, coming from the North under the enemy's radar.”

So let me get this straight ... 1. US bombs Iran 2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate 3. Russia gives Iran targeting info 4. Oil price shoots WAY up 5. US unsanctions Russian oil

“Putin told me he would play nice!” I mean, outside chance this is true. And if Trump believed that, with how much aid the Kremlin gives Tehran … yikes man. Bush league national security. But that’s what we got right now.

Social media has turned otherwise normal people into this. Ten toes down on shit you know is wrong. You're allowed to learn new information and course correct. That 'I'm not owned' Dril tweet describes way too many people who worry more about embarrassment in front of faceless nobodies than reality

Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

It’s just so easy!

congress needs to stop this madman

The Republican-controlled House and Senate refused their constitutional obligations today by not initiating the War Powers resolution. But they did not affirm, authorize, or support the war at all in any way. It remains completely illegal.

Mullins is super unhinged. So this should go great! Also, “Shield of the Americas” … Is that a Marvel thing?
