White House:
From Day One, the mission was crystal clear: This was the final, best chance to wipe out Iran’s threat for good - so they can never have a nuclear weapon.
Rubio breaks it down ⬇️

In ten years time people will not believe this was actually happening

“We have nothing to do with what’s happening in the Strait of Hormuz. We’ll be withdrawing from there very soon,” Trump said. He forgot about the planned regime change. Trump sets the world on fire and then runs away.

Trump's ex lawyer fairly clear in his assessment.......
Mike Sington@MikeSington
“I think he’s gone.” Trump’s former White House lawyer Ty Cobb says Trump is “clearly insane”.
English
Megyn Kelly criticizes Trump on Iran: "Trump saying 'just like the ballroom, we are way ahead of schedule.' You are talking about American troops dying, putting their lives at risk.”
English
“We’re finishing the job, and I think within maybe two weeks, maybe a couple of days longer to do the job, but we want to knock out every single thing there,” President Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.
The president said the conflict would end much sooner if Iran came to the negotiating table.

last night: war over soon, don’t need to open strait
this morning: war continues until strait open
this evening: equivalent incoherence
English
SECRETARY RUBIO: Why are we in NATO? You have to ask that question. Why do we send trillions of dollars and have all of these American forces stationed in the region, if in our time of need, we won't be allowed to use those bases?
English
Secretary of State Marco Rubio gives an excellent explanation on why the U.S. needed to strike Iran
It's less than 2 minutes and is worth the watch

Pete Hegseth: "The president was clear this morning in his truth that there are countries around the world who ought be prepared to step up on this critical waterway as well."

Conspiracy theorists, add another notch

Netanyahu: We are working on transforming Israel into a supernation in the region and globally.

Saying this with a straight face is crazy
Acyn@Acyn
Hegseth: I witnessed lethality. I met a junior airman as the sun was going down and a chill was setting on the tarmac, who, when asked what they needed, she simply looked up at me with a sly smile on her face and said, more bombs, sir, and bigger bombs. We will happily oblige her.

Let me say something every Republican needs to hear right now.
Trump does not care if you lose.
He does not care about your career, your district, your donors, or your family.
Trump cares about three things. Money. Attention. Self-aggrandizement.
That’s the complete list.
And the idea that Trump is going to help Republicans win in 2028 is a bunch of malarkey.
You want to know who Trump actually wants as his successor? Gavin Newsom.
The narcissistic nihilistic logic is this: you were nothing before I got here and when I leave, you’ll be nothing again.
That’s the supreme narcissist’s final move.
A Democrat winning in 2028 proves his point perfectly.
Don Jr. has already said they want to be the richest family in the world before they leave the presidency.
God only knows what they’re doing to get there.
So if you’re a Republican still betting your future on this man’s loyalty — understand one thing clearly.
There is no loyalty. There is only the transaction.
And you’re not the one getting paid.

This is insane.
It's the equivalent of setting your neighbor's house on fire and then being pissed they didn't stay inside, run the faucets, and fight the blaze from inside.

Hegseth: "The president was clear this morning in his Truth that there are countries around the world who ought to be prepared to step up on this critical waterway as well. Last time I checked there was supposed to be a big bad Royal Navy that could be prepared to do things like that."

Winding down the war is the right call, but for any peace agreement/exit plan to work we must restrain Israel 1st.
Israel will thwart any peace deal or come back to us in a few months demanding more support to topple the Ayatollahs & IRGC unless we restrain them now.
Restraining the Israelis means taking away the military aid & support they need to conduct offensive military ops in Iran.

Pete Hegseth: "The War Department will not be distracted by democracy-building, interventionism, undefined wars, regime change…and feckless nation-building."
The Bulwark@BulwarkOnline
Pete Hegseth: "This new regime, because regime change has occurred, should be wiser than the last."

MOMENTS AGO: President Trump on Truth Social: “All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil! President DJT”
In a separate post, POTUS wrote: “The Country of France wouldn’t let planes headed to Israel, loaded up with military supplies, fly over French territory. France has been VERY UNHELPFUL with respect to the ‘Butcher of Iran,’ who has been successfully eliminated! The U.S.A. will REMEMBER!!! President DJT”

What a disaster. Iran will be more powerful at the end of this incoherent war than they were at the start.

Trump tells aides he is willing to end Iran war without reopening Hormuz, WSJ reports reut.rs/4dpCJnH reut.rs/4dpCJnH

NEW: Lindsey Graham now encouraging Trump to “wind down” the Iran war and facilitate peace efforts in a drastic shift from earlier messaging repeatedly insisting Trump escalate the conflict.

Pete Hegseth on President Trump's timeline for the Iran War:
"He said four to six weeks, six to eight weeks, three — it could by any particular number but we would never reveal precisely what it is. We're well on our way."
