@stevenpaletz @atrupar @RepNancyMace Point me to anything they’ve said that’s anti-Semitic or anti-American. My point stands that many people aren’t going to celebrate until they see actual positive changes for Iranian people. As it stands, one tyrant is being replaced with a younger model of himself

@outfoxemm @atrupar @RepNancyMace Yes...they have had an opportunity to post, and used it for their anti-semitic and anti-american agenda.

My heart goes out to Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib tonight. Sending them thoughts and prayers.

@stevenpaletz @atrupar @RepNancyMace Lmao 🤣 YOU changed the discussion when YOU said they’ve posted nothing but criticism of the US and Israel

@outfoxemm @atrupar @RepNancyMace You are changing the discussion. This is about the death of the ayatollah. That is a good thing. Period. Full stop.

@Fair_and_Biased The regime in Venezuela hasn’t changed so tell me again how they’re free?

Do you notice that in every country Trump strikes, the people take to the streets to celebrate? It was the same in Venezuela as it is in Iran. Trump isn’t seeking world domination. He’s setting the captives free.

@UraharaGaiden @karol You do realise that the UK has more freedoms than the US, the so-called “Land of the Free”? We also have more freedom of speech than you currently do in the US. Also, refusing to bow to the US wanting us involved in an illegal war shows plenty of spine

@karol This is not the UK of old. The one that used to be our fiercest ally to the end. Today a different country.  No free speech. No spine. UK gone. France gone. NATO IS BROKEN.  I hope you find a way back to what you were. A new coalition treaty must be considered.

I love when this guy comes out, like he did after our Venezuela strike, to say the UK played no role. NO SHIT. You're a complete nobody on the world stage, WE KNOW. You don't have to keep telling us.

@JDVance Apparently you didn’t learn a damn thing

Twenty years ago we invaded Iraq. The war killed many innocent Iraqis and Americans. It destroyed the oldest Christian populations in the world. It cost over $1 trillion, and turned Iraq into a satellite of Iran. It was an unforced disaster, and I pray that we learn its lessons.

@LindseyGrahamSC I guess you all should’ve thought about the longer term effects of undermining your allies, treating our alliances like they’re worthless, threatening to invade allies, etc. Don’t be surprised when we then don’t want to help you start a new war 🤷‍♀️

To say I’m disappointed in the joint statement by leaders from France, Germany and the UK regarding Operation Epic Fury is an understatement. It is so sad to see western democracies lose their passion for justice and a sense of right and wrong the further away from their shores the event occurs. Everyone in Europe is rightly impassioned about Russia invading Ukraine. But when it comes to the long suffering people of Iran, Europe has been pathetic. To the leaders of France, Germany and the UK: the Iranian people are not wrong to demand the end to their oppression from the bloodthirsty ayatollah’s regime that has American and European blood on their hands. You collectively are the ones that are wrong by refusing to come to the Iranian people’s aid and adding insult to injury, you’re suggesting we should continue to negotiate with religious Nazis. It is pathetic. How far Western Europe has fallen. To the Iranian people: President Trump heard your cries. Help has arrived in large measure. To our European allies: you have gone pathetically soft and lost your zeal for confronting evil apparently unless it’s on your front porch. So sad. thehill.com/policy/interna…

@DeepPur10997021 @csljohnkirby @LindseyGrahamSC If you don’t care what we think then why are you so bothered that we haven’t gotten involved in a war the US started? Why would we want to help a country start a war whose leaders have spent a lot of the last year treating us like enemies and worse than some of the US’s enemies?

@csljohnkirby @LindseyGrahamSC Well Kirby, first let me say up front, we don’t care what you think. What our government does or doesn’t do is of no concern for you. Secondly, if you knew anything about American political system, you would know the president doesn’t have to ask. So with there get lost.

@stevenpaletz @atrupar @RepNancyMace The US and Israel deserve criticism. Their actions have consequences far beyond themselves. Hardly anyone disagrees that Iran needs regime change but going about it in this way was incredibly shortsighted with history showing this method as highly ineffective

@outfoxemm @atrupar @RepNancyMace They have posted nothing other than continued criticism of Israel and the US. If Iran had taken out Israel’s leadership I’m sure that they would have found time to post something.

@PaulSchleifer @seanspicer It was initially to do with Trump’s behaviour about the Chagos Deal and then I think the planned action breaking international law came into it, along with the British public making it very clear we do not want to be dragged into a war

@seanspicer I don’t know the specific reason for that decision, but most of us here are relieved that our government isn’t blindly supporting your lunatic regime.

just a reminder, our good buddies the British refused to allow the US military to operate out of any of their bases

@stevenpaletz @atrupar @RepNancyMace Not publicly celebrating someone’s death doesn’t automatically make claims like Mace’s true. Plenty of men have been primed to continue the regime. Many people won’t celebrate until there’s actually been long-term improvements made to Iranian’s lives.

@atrupar @RepNancyMace You are a journalist. Show me where they wrote about their celebration of the death of this evil man. If they didn’t, Rep. Mace is right on this one.

@Timobns @BBCNews People aren’t watching SOTU because athletes are there. They’re very loud about wanting politics kept out of the sport. Attending an inherently political event like SOTU contradicts that, regardless of if POTUS at the time is Dem or GOP; ppl globally say going was a bad move

@outfoxemm @BBCNews Yep. But that will not have the eyes that the State of the Union gets.

Trump joke 'overshadows' US women's Olympic success bbc.in/4tQL1ul

@megbasham She’s not wrong and I actually like how she answered giving the disrespect in the question she was asked. Given she’s dual nationality, she’s not “betraying her country” in competing for China, especially given she’s only allowed to represent one of them

I'm sorry, but even beyond betraying her country, this woman is awful. Off the chart levels of arrogance. I don't care how many medals she has, there is nothing about her I would encourage my daughters to emulate.

@Timobns @BBCNews Both teams will still be going to the White House for a formal celebration of their wins. The men’s team going to SOTU was a separate thing, unprecedented (no other gold medal winners from other sports were invited), and political. 2/2

@outfoxemm @BBCNews Yes, and the men's rating clobbered that. That is the point. They lost their chance at getting more eyes on it with a celebration at the State of the Union, but said no.

@Timobns @BBCNews You’re completely missing my point. Both ratings are irrelevant because people in general won’t choose to watch women’s sports. Trump’s “joke” even reiterates that; it shows he sees the women’s success as less important than the men’s when it isn’t. 1/2

@Timobns @BBCNews The TV ratings are irrelevant when you consider the fact that sports fans in general are less bothered about watching or supporting women’s sports. The women’s gold medal ice hockey match had the highest number of viewers for any women’s ice hockey match ever

@BBCNews Them not showing up at the State of the Union did that. The men went and got a lot of attention. The TV ratings for the men here in the states was around 18.6 million, and peaked at 26 million in overtime. The women, 5.3 million, and peaked at 7.7 million.

@Zen_Master_74 @BBCNews When they were the butt of the “joke”, how was it not at their expense? It absolutely diminished their achievement because the president of their country showed in that comment that he viewed their success as less important than that of the men’s team

@BBCNews A joke that wasn't even at their expense and in mo way dininished thrir achievement. They're just Trump haters trying to cause outrage over nothing.

@TheSport27dude @WhatChaosShow @SIASport You do get that this is not about politics but is about the player implying, unintentionally or not, that his team sucks, right? You do know they’re not supposed to do that?

@WhatChaosShow @SIASport You guys are so pathetic. You can’t let this go you gotta keep talking about it. What a joke, absolute joke.

Tage Thompson got a taste of victory and said NEVER AGAIN Presented by @SIASport

@Ch_az_1 @thetonymichaels If ICE hadn’t been deliberately and illegally arresting and detaining people whose records showed they were in the country legally he could’ve been home right away. Stop blaming victims; it makes you sound like an abuser

@thetonymichaels If the mother would have just opened the door and accepted the child he would have been home right away. Or if the father hadn't abandoned the child and ran away we wouldn't have this problem. Quit twisting things around. No one buys it

@atrupar The level of gaslighting is unreal and it’s the sort of thing abusers say to their victims

Q: What is your message to the people of Minnesota who are still upset with the ICE surge? This is just one more thing on top of that JD VANCE: We love them. So much of what is broken in Minnesota is a lack of cooperation. We would encourage everybody in Minnesota to work on the state government a little bit

@rockstar3333333 @stoolpresidente If that happened, that wouldn’t be okay either so doesn’t justify this

I’ve given this hockey controversy more thought after all this outrage and looking at the other point of view. Maybe it is more nuanced than I gave it credit for in the beginning. Growth is progress. #olympicgold
