The risk of Trump doing this just because he thinks it would be cool to watch from the situation room is way too high for comfort and you know I’m right about that

The reckless campaign against Iran will weaken America’s president. That will make him angry. Be warned: he makes a very bad loser econ.st/4lA7lEQ

One of 30,000 reasons why this murderous regime must go.
Masih Alinejad 🏳️@AlinejadMasih
Today, in Iran, in the middle of a war, the regime executed a 19-year-old national wrestling champion for the crime of joining January protests. 💔 After signaling to the world, including President @realDonaldTrump, that they would halt executions of protesters, the regime has done the exact opposite. Three young protesters, Saleh Mohammadi, Mehdi Ghasemi, and Saeed Davoudi, were hanged in Qom after a sham trial. Reports indicate torture. Forced confessions. No access to chosen lawyers. Closed-door proceedings. No right to appeal. I call on @GlobalAthleteHQ to stand with Iranian athletes who are being silenced, imprisoned, and executed simply for raising their voices. This is not just about sports. This is about human dignity.

@ThirdWayKessler Envy, that green eyed monster. C’mon! With Scheyer and Cameron Boozer, we’re not even hate-able anymore!

Do you strongly support Siena over Duke? Somewhat strongly? Or not too strongly at all? #SienaDuke

@ThirdWayKessler See Jim? It’s not just because I worked for Marty Meehan that I’m annoying.

I may or may not have the Siena-Duke game playing in my office during working hours.

“We are manufacturing a whole new generation of terrorists in the Middle East,” former U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel tells me, saying the Trump administration's conduct of its war in Iran appears to him unprecedented.

@ArminRosen This is f’ing absurd and insulting to Midwesterners. Lit critics won’t even allow midwesterners one towering, self-deprecating character???

Dear Pam Bondi,
The Dow is under 46K. Can we now investigate credible accusations of pedophilia?

President Trump on the Iran War:
"No, I'm not putting troops anywhere. If I were, I certainly wouldn't tell you but I'm not putting troops... Look, the Dow just hit 50,000."

Q: Can you explain why a package this large is necessary?
HEGSETH: First of all, none of this would've been possible without Midnight Hammer. Without that audacious mission with very clear goals that did obliterate their ability to enrich. We're still dealing with the environment Joe Biden created.

@RepDonBacon Trump and Rubio have BOTH indicated this is at Netanyahu/Israeli’s behest. Your quarrel is with potus and SecState.
Anti-Netanyahu-ism is not Anti-Semitism.
English
ICYMI: I respect differences of opinion on Iran, but blaming the “Israeli lobby” for the war echoes some of the oldest anti-semitic tropes, dating back centuries, the false idea of a hidden Jewish cabal secretly controlling our country. That has no place in our party. I will not be a bystander when I hear this racism.

@jonfavs but hey, he wears an Old Glory pocket square, so he’s infallible

I agree with Hegseth, it's terrible when a government driven by a radical ideology invests in weapons instead of its people.
Acyn@Acyn
Hegseth: Iran is an energy rich country. instead, like so many other places, driven by a radical ideology, instead of investing in their people… they invested in missiles, and they invested in launchers and UAVS.

Tonight 2003--President George W. Bush speaks from Oval Office:
"American and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm Iraq, free its people, and defend the world."
