Jared Kushner has no security clearance, he has provided no financial disclosures, is hopelessly conflicted financially (if not in other ways too), is not Senate confirmed, and doesn’t report to anyone subject to Congressional oversight. Diplomatic mercenary.

Vance, Witkoff, and Kushner will lead the U.S. negotiating team in Pakistan for Iran talks starting Saturday -White House

I’m sorry - the Pentagon threatened the Catholic Church, currently led by the first American pope??
Anne Applebaum@anneapplebaum
The Trump administration gave a Vatican envoy "a bitter lecture warning that the United States has the military power to do whatever it wants—and that the Church had better take its side"

Why is a private citizen who has financial ties in the billions with Israel and Saudi Arabia negotiating for the United States? Why are no diplomats involved? When will the Republican Congress act like an actual coequal branch of government and not a doormat?

Leavitt announces that Trump is "dispatching his negotiating team led by the vice president, JD Vance, special envoy Witkoff, and Mr. Kushner to Islamabad for talks this weekend"

Excellent! I congratulate @ERICSORENSEN for stepping up. Who has the courage to join him? @SenateDems @HouseDemocrats
Andrew Solender@AndrewSolender
Democratic Rep. Eric Sorensen says he is personally coming back to D.C. early in light of Trump's statements on Iran. “I will be returning to Washington D.C. this week and call on Speaker Johnson to bring the House to order so we can end this nightmare."

Why aren't Schumer and Jeffries holding an emergency joint press conference right now calling for the military chain of command to stand down and for the Vice President and a majority of the administration to invoke the 25th ammendment?
WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING RIGHT NOW?

He's polling so badly in the US he has resorted to bragging about his poll numbers in Venezuela
The Bulwark@BulwarkOnline
Trump: "I'm polling higher than anybody has ever polled in Venezuela. So after I'm finished with this I can got to Venezuela. I will quickly learn Spanish. It won't take long. I'm good at language. I will go to Venezuela. I'm going to run for president."

Karoline Leavitt: “President Trump is only focused on one thing: defeating Iran.”

For the record, the president of the United States is now simultaneously claiming that he has won the war, is currently winning the war, needs help to win the war, and needs no help to win the war. All to destroy the nuclear program he claims to have already destroyed last year.

Some of the frivolous September purchases made under Secretary Pete Hegseth’s stewardship include a $98,329 Steinway & Sons grand piano for the Air Force chief of staff’s home, $5.3 million for Apple devices such as the new iPad, and an astronomical amount of shellfish, including $2 million for Alaskan king crab and $6.9 million worth of lobster tail. (Lobster tail is apparently a favorite of Hegseth’s Pentagon—the department spent more than $7.4 million total on the luxury item in March, May, June, and October.)
In other pricey food purchases, the government decided to drop $15.1 million for ribeye steak (again, just in September), $124,000 for ice cream machines, and $139,224 on 272 orders of doughnuts.

Holy crap. Two of the four people who convinced him that we had to bomb Iran immediately don't even work in our government.

Trump: "Based on what Steve and Jared and Pete and others were telling me, Marco is so involved, I thought they were going to attack us"

"Spain said we can't use their bases. We could use their bases if we want. We could just fly in and use it. Nobody is gonna tell us not to use it." Spoken like a true rapist.

Trump and Rubio are far more complicit in what’s happening here than Hillary Clinton ever was for Benghazi. Let’s have public testimony under oath with that same level of scrutiny.

What “imminent threat” to the American people compelled this US attack tonight? Please post facts . I have an open mind. Maybe there are recent developments that I haven’t been tracking. But I’m interested in facts, not opinions.
