#Resist #FBR. Any public official who still thinks Trump is fit to serve as POTUS isn't fit to serve as a public official either.

@gbcomment @Amockx2022 Trump still controls the military 🙄 And now we know nato won’t allow us to fly over our own bases. So instead of paying for nato re Greeneld, Trump will just take it.

BREAKING : Trump is now officially accepting his defeat and conceding that the whole world isolated him 😭
The White House spokesperson has confirmed that Trump is likely to withdraw support from the NATO because he didn't get support against 🇮🇷 Iran
He is the same guy who said he didn't need anyone's help but now acting against NATO countries because he didn't get help 🤣
Irony = 100%
RESPECT for countries like Spain 🇪🇸 and France 🇫🇷 which didn't fall for his trap
English
@DrPepperTexan @allenanalysis Well it didn’t work. If he’s such a great negotiator he wouldn’t need to resort to such a desperate message. Watch something other than Fox, read some mainstream periodicals. Iran has emerged with more international influence than it ever had and the U.S. is isolated.
English
Clearly, given what he wrote he was not. He called it “bridge day” which tells us those would have been the primary targets. Nevertheless, Trump was not talking to you or me. He was talking to the leadership of Iran, and as I understand it they only listen to bombastic statements of strength.

🚨CNN just asked: "Is it acceptable for the president to threaten to annihilate a civilization?"
The Republican answer: Yes.
Trump threatened to wipe out an entire country and his defenders went on national television to endorse it.

@tallytherally @Amockx2022 He can’t pull out without the consent of Congress. The act was cosponsored by Rubio years ago😂😂😂😂

@Amockx2022 “The White House spokesperson has confirmed that Trump is likely to withdraw support from the NATO because he didn't get support against Iran.” This is correct. Yeah Nato is a joke. I hope Trump pulls out.

@DrPepperTexan @allenanalysis Nonsense. Trump specifically talking about destroying infrastructure and public necessities such as desalination plants. He was talking about the destruction of country and a people he said he wanted to free. He’s unfit to serve. He’s mentally ill and the world knows it.
English
The civilization that Trump was referring to was the murderous, violent, authoritarian government of Iran that is run by religious freaks who believe that nuclear war will bring about the coming of the 12th Imam. That civilization has to go. Trump also said in the same statement “ God bless the great people of Iran.”
English
Chip Roy: "President Trump is the first president certainly in my lifetime to look decades and hundreds of years down the road about how we structure the United States for geopolitical dominance going forward"

@BlueGeorgia This guy is an idiot. Check out how many great deals Trump made ended up in bankruptcy.
English
Tom Sauer: I think it's really important to keep in mind that so many of President Trump's detractors around the world all need to read the greatest geopolitical strategy book of my lifetime. It's called The Art of the Deal by Donald J. Trump.

Murphy: But if you accept even part of the Iranian statement, Donald Trump has agreed to give Iran control of the strait of hormuz. That is extraordinary. If you go deeper into the statement from the Iranian national security council, they claim that trump has also agreed to Iran's right to enrichment, to suspend all sanctions against Iran and to allow Iran to keep their missile program, their drone program and their nuclear program.
English
@EWErickson So what you’re saying is that when the President of the United States says something, he may mean it , and he may not. And you’re good with that.
You’re an idiot.
English
What's actually happening here is the President has embraced the "mad man" theory and is trying to convince the Iranians that he's willing to do whatever to wipe them out in hopes of getting a deal. The failure is that the President, like so many others, doesn't actually appreciate that the Iranians are mad men who live in a fundamentally religious world where they really do believe they are to wipe out Israel and their citizens are expendable. But no, this is not an unhinged President. It's a man playing a role as a negotiation tactic. Unfortunately, the President is going to be backed into a corner of extreme options by doing this, or be mocked for TACO again.
English
@GeraldoRivera If any other head of state was in a military position to do this to any other country, and threatened to do it, what would you say about that head of state?
Go ahead, give me an example of where it would be acceptable to you.
You’re a fucking idiot.

I Back Trump
On Easter morning the president came out swinging with a scorching ultimatum. If the Strait of Hormuz was not open by today, which he calls “Power Plant Day, and “Bridge Day,” he promised to unleash hell on civilian infrastructure.
“There will be nothing like it!!!” Sounding more like a bar room brawler than a statesman, he wrote on Truth Social last week, “Open the Fuckin’ Strait you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in hell--JUST WATCH.”
At tonight’s draconian deadline, Americans will get a true sense of how messy this Iran war is going to get. Since the president has given frequent and ever-changing ultimatums to the Iranian regime it's hard to guess where he's going to land when it comes to following through on his latest threat to wreak havoc.
Surely, he knows that he's not going to make many friends in Iran by blowing up the bridges they need to walk to their marketplace. Under the long-accepted rules of war destroying strictly civilian infrastructure may even be a war crime. But tell that to the people living in Gaza or southern Lebanon or Kyiv. The fact that some noble treaty outlaws certain conduct doesn't make much difference on the ground if your bridge is blown up.
Trump must have figured that if he inflicts enough pain and suffering on the Iranian people, they will have no choice but to overthrow their predatory government. That Regime in Tehran commits war crimes daily. The failed uprisings in December and January show beyond any doubt, that the people of Iran are sick of repression and exploitation. That didn't translate into a successful uprising. Thousands of innocent Iranian civilians were massacred when they heeded the call of Reza Pahlavi the late Shah’s oldest son among others to rise against the regime. Many did. They were cut down.
What should we do about it?
In 2003, remember how shady the evidence was that Saddam Hussein in Iraq had weapons of mass destruction? It was laughable. The WMD’s were nonexistent. Yet most politicians including the Clintons went along with President George W. Bush. Essentially, we went to war in Iraq in 2003 under false pretenses. The evidence against Iran in 2026 is clearer. The Regime has been reaping chaos and mayhem since the ignominious hostage-taking in 1979 and the Marine Barracks slaughter in Beirut in 1983.
Historians and journalists will ultimately unearth why this war with Iran happened when and how it did? What role did the failed uprising play? Did Israel help drag us into another Mideast quagmire? But now, as in 2003, there comes a time when Americans must pick a lane. Our servicemen and women deserve our support. If the Commander-in-Chief insists on taking them and us to war against Iran, then God forgive me, however dubious his bluster I back Trump. The Regime must go.

@EdKrassen Let’s just skip over the fact that what Trump has threatened to do is a fucking war crime.

BREAKING: Human chains of women and young children continue to be formed in front of bridges and power plants in Iran, while most of them probably don't even know about Trump's disgusting threats.
Listen to Fox News:
“The human chains that are now being formed in front of several power plants in Iran. These are mostly women and young children... Reports say fewer than 1% of the Iranian population has internet access, so they may not be aware of the U.S. threats in general.”
Will MAGA cheer if these people are blown up?

@Coach_Hickey5 Either they put some regulations/restrictions on this NIL business or just let the universities call it, and treat it as it will become, a junior pro league. Even now, it has little to do with student athletes in the money sports.

Ding. Ding. Ding. It’s not the top kids that this system will fail. It’s the kids who make $500k and then $600k. They graduate, their careers sputter out and then go to get an office job and make $75k. What are they going to do then. The ncaa won’t care…

No president in modern history has used the office to enrich himself the way Donald Trump has. That's not a political opinion. It’s the conclusion of ethics watchdogs who have spent their careers watching this stuff.
The crypto ventures. The foreign deals with the Saudis, the Qataris, the Emiratis. The $400 million Qatari jet. The $90 million in media settlements. The gold golf balls from the Japanese.
This is the man who told you he was going to clean up Washington.
For this President, the presidency isn’t about protecting our democracy or the public trust. It’s about turning the highest office in the land into a personal cash register, and he’s been doing it from day one.

It’s getting harder to ignore decisions coming out of Washington that directly benefit Moscow.
Waiving sanctions on Russian oil, even temporarily, pumps billions back into Putin’s war chest at the worst possible time.
That money doesn’t sit idle. It fuels war in Ukraine and instability far beyond it, including deepening military cooperation with Iran, from intelligence sharing to drone development.

I really wish "legal experts" hadn't screamed bloody murder about every little thing Trump did, so they could speak with authority now that he's actually committing war crimes.

@NILnotNLI @SethOnHoops I think student athletes should get some type of compensation (across sports) for the sacrifices they make and the potential benefits they could provide the university. But it’s becoming a junior pro league having nothing to do with “student athletics.”
English
According to Jay Bilas NCAA athletes are professionals and "adults," not developing young adults (as @SethOnHoops correctly pointed out yesterday).
Well, adults pay for their own lives. They pay for things like housing, food, and school tuition.
How about Jay endorses the growing sentiment of eliminating "free ride" athletic scholarships for any "adult" who receives NIL or rev-share that exceeds the university's cost of attendance?
If you get paid a million dollars, you should have to pay for school.
Simple.
That would be the "adult" thing to do.
English
@atrupar @Dalocoengineer So now we have the GOP rationale for committing war crimes. I seem to remember Trump saying he was doing this so the people could rise up and take back their country. Now he’s saying since that didn’t work we’ll just make the whole country unlivable.

DOOCY: Congressman, do you want to see the US start hitting civilian infrastructure like the president says?
ISSA: Of course, the president didn't want to do it. He'll do what he has to do. When you take away bridges, you take away the ability for them to transport future weapons.
