@McFaul Why do all roads lead to Ukraine with you? The US will be fine without Ukraine help.....

So maybe, Mr. President, we should have been spending much more on anti-missile and anti-drone systems instead of building more giant, vulnerable battleships, as you recently announced? We could learn a lot from the Ukrainians if you started treating them as partners.

Absolute humiliation for the Pentagon. Trump accidentally admits the multi billion dollar US Navy is completely paralyzed in the Strait of Hormuz. He confesses they are terrified that just a single Iranian missile will easily sink a billion dollar ship.

@McFaul So assembling Chinese parts and using American satellites is called innovation. Got it......

And this is why the US Department of Defense should be doing more collaborative work with Ukrainian defense companies.

Gen. Whitney: Ukraine’s level of innovation is out of this world. Driven by necessity, they test, iterate, and improve constantly.

@RealCandaceO @ggreenwald If Israel laid down there arms, they would cease to exist as a Nation State. If Iran lays down its arms, Iran/Persia will continue for millenia.....
English
@ggreenwald I keep telling people that if Israel laid down its arms, there would be peace tomorrow. If Iran laid down their arms, they would wiped from the face of the planet.
Or something.
English
All Israel has to do is lay down its weapons, surrender, and these attacks will stop. Pretty simple.

Israeli Channel 12 reports at least three buildings have been completely destroyed in Tel Aviv. One missile directly struck the area, Israeli authorities stated.

@BarackObama I do agree with you on this..... Not sure how to get there though.....

The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.
The ACA also prevented insurance companies from denying people with pre-existing conditions coverage, allowed young people under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ plan, expanded Medicaid, and so much more.
But the ACA was always meant to be a first step. We still have to do more to expand access and make health care more affordable for everyone.

@McFaul Your acting like a kindergartener. There's many more nuances and equations to this then 1+1 = 3....

Russia has a lot of land -- the largest country in the world.
Russia does not have a lot of people. Demographic trends are a major challenge.
Putin is slaughtering young Russians to acquire tiny bits of land in Ukraine.
Irrational.

@A1Policy Gotta get this done!! It's playing for keeps time, as they say!!!!

Reasons to love America? Too many to count.
That’s exactly why we must protect the integrity of our electoral system.

@EricRWeinstein The US/Israel forces are battering Iran from air. Iran is on its heals and refocusing on decentralized Hezbollah/Houthi/Hamas style attacks. Rest is fog of war. Check back in a week.
English
Is there no place to simply get news on Iran, Israel, the Gulf, US forces and the Middle East?
Everyone is cheerleading for something or the other.
I want to know what is actually happeing to first approximation.
How are you accomplishing this if at all? Thx in advance.

@Glenn_Diesen And how would you know what America First means to Americans?

US Senator Lindsey Graham: "I will be with Israel till our dying day"

@McFaul 1. Western Hemisphere
2. East Asia
3. Middle East
4. Eurasia
5. Africa

In his book Strategy of Denial (p. 5), Bridge Colby -- our current undersecretary for defense -- ranked the "key regions of the world, ranked in the order of geopolitical importance"...
1. Asia
2. Europe
3. North America
4. The Persian Gulf
What happened?

@delcyrodriguezv @realDonaldTrump Just be good people. There's plenty of wealth in Venezuela to go around!!!

Presidente @RealDonaldTrump, recibimos esta decisión como un reconocimiento al pueblo de Venezuela y a su justa causa por la verdad de nuestro país. Reiteramos nuestra disposición a construir relaciones de largo plazo basadas en el respeto mutuo, la igualdad

Thank you, President @ZelenskyyUa and the Armed Forces of Ukraine, for helping us with our security needs in the Middle East.

@MalcJo @PLCROSSTALK Isn't surpassing a Great Power a threat to it?? In my line of reasoning a Great Power should go to great lengths, including war to remain on top......
English
@PLCROSSTALK Yes. Hard to say how it plays out but this is WWIII. Completely unnecessary too. It’s just the collapsing US empire trying to stave off its demise. That’s why they have fomented conflict with Russia and now soon China to prevent it surpassing the US. There’s no actual threat.
English
For those who have not been paying attention, what we are observing is WW3.

@JohnCornyn @realDonaldTrump Use your prowess to get this done, you know its what Texans want.......

Contrary to fake news in the twitterverse: I have supported the Save America Act from day one. I will happily support the “talking filibuster” if that’s what it takes to pass this into law. @realDonaldTrump
English
OK, MAGA.
Russia is giving Iran intelligence to help target American forces.
Ukraine is offering to help defend American troops from Iranian drones.
So tell me again: which one is the “enemy,” and which one is the ally?
English
@McFaul This isn't verified, again Zelensky grifting and trying to stay relevant....
English
Just a few days ago, our president called Zelenskyy “P.T. Barnum” for allegedly convincing Biden to give him everything.
Glad Zelenskyy has thick skin.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський@ZelenskyyUa
We received a request from the United States for specific support in protection against "shaheds" in the Middle East region. I gave instructions to provide the necessary means and ensure the presence of Ukrainian specialists who can guarantee the required security. Ukraine helps partners who help ensure our security and protect the lives of our people. Glory to Ukraine!
English
@McFaul The Israel's sounded Gaza a 10×2 strip for 2 years and still haven't completely dislodged Hamas. Once the they're done with in initial shock and awe Russia will step-in to help with rebuilding or supports with small arms, drones etc etc..... China?????
English
Russia has done nothing for Iran.
If there’s a war over Taiwan, Putin will do nothing for China.
We don’t need to try to pull Putin into our orbit to balance against China (reverse Kissinger).
He is a worthless ally.
English
If we’ve been at war with Iran for 47 years, why didn’t Trump attack in 2017 or 2018 or 2019 or 2020 or 2025?
Genuine, not rhetorical question. What was the trigger in 2026?
English
I’m curious. With the Iranian navy now lying at the bottom of sea, how is Iran “closing the strait of Hormuz”?
English
@Glenn_Diesen Are you serious?? Defeat?? Who's the one with there leadership dead, MIB in ruins and fleet and the bottom of the sea???
English
The Trump administration adjusts to the disasters that are coming: 1) They claim an attack from Iran was "imminent", a legal term suggesting the war is legal. 2) The objective of America's war has shifted from regime change to destroying Iran's ballistic missiles. This is an off-ramp as regime change is highly unlikely, while "degrading" Iran's ballistic missiles production and storage can be argued to have already been achieved. Indeed, the Iranian missiles raining down on US military bases is also reducing Iran's stockpile. These are the new narratives as the US must find a way to declare victory to cover up a predictable and humiliating defeat.
English
@McFaul Ballistic missiles, funding proxy terrorists and resources..... What's wrong with that?
English
Why did we go to war with Iran again?
I’ve lost the thread.
