President Donald Trump threatened Iran with bombings ...

Trump is threatening to bomb Iran if it doesn't make a nuclear deal that Trump previously pulled the US out of in 2018. This is like the tariff war but Trump gets to directly murder civilians as he flip flops and does Israel's bidding in the region. www.reuters.com/world/trump- ...

"He added:

"There's a chance that if they don't make a deal, that I will do secondary tariffs on them like I did four years ago that brought them to a position that they very much wanted to be."

Say what?

"During his first term in office, Trump withdrew the United States from a treaty with Iran that was meant to end its nuclear ambitions and then repeatedly accused Iran of not upholding its end of the bargain.

China, Russia, France, Germany, Britain and the European Union were also part of that 2015 treaty."

Iran wants other players in the room other than Tiny Tot Rubio.

The insidious nature of the American system has a tobacco farmer in South Carolina, prison guard in rural New York, truck driver in Kansas, firefighter in Missouri, or farmer in Iowa giving a damn about Iran. How does bombing Iran improve the lives of these aforementioned Americans? cdnph.upi.com

Yeah, I know.

All those people pretending that Trump was for peace were consciously lying through their teeth.

Trump's sick ego is only satisfied by war.

And, as we all now, MAGA isn't happy unless his sick ego is fed.

1) It wasn't a fiasco. Ukraine has been doing quite well.

2) No American troops were involved.

3) It was and is a bargain financially.

4) Now why don't you go on and threaten to ef someone's mother. If you are through effing your own.

It's unfortunate that we have to rely on an autocratic dictator like Putin to keep our own psychopath-in-chief from starting World War III on behalf of Christian nationalist loons and Israel.

But that is what it has come down to.

There's absolutely no way that Putin will allow this to happen. All the deal-making Trump has been trying to do with Russia has nothing to do with Ukraine. It has everything to do with trying to keep Russia from interfering with this long-planned attack. Trump thinks he can buy off Putin.

Putin knows this more than anyone and Iran is a critical strategic chess piece for the long-term security of the southern frontier of Russia.

What surprises me as how silent the mainstream media in the US has been about this. They are so completely beholden to Zionist interests that they have become a completely useless entity at this point in time.

You're right just insert Gaza after Gaza on the list

Don't forget California and New York... future targets.

I found rather unsettling to learn half our B-2 bombers are currently sitting on the tarmac in Diego Garcia locked & loaded. The next thick-brick maga moron that mewls to you about waste/fraud/abuse/etc., ask them how many gallons of Jet-A it took to get those irreplaceable weapon systems there, and how many gallons it will take to fly them back. My hope is the JCoS will refuse to follow any of his insane orders, prompting congress to then finally 25th Amendment his fat, soiled-diapered behind.

#15: The bipartisan US Congress allowed the AUMF to continue unabated for decades, thanks to the Islamophobic GWOT and AIPAC. To paraphrase Lady MacBeth: "what's done is done and cannot be undone." Now the US has an unregulated violent baboon as POTUS who will further abuse the AUMF, kill more people, all the while wasting US resources and causing reprisal attacks on American citizens or servicemembers abroad.

This is an insult to good, honest baboons everywhere!

The resemblances to DJT (aka 'The AC') at a typical press conference is incredible!

It would be in Iran's best interest to complete a bomb and conduct nuclear tests within the next few months.

At this point, I'm not convinced it wouldn't also be in the world's best interest for that to happen.

With President Plane Crash stinking up the White House half of the bombers would probably wreck before hitting their targets.
