@SpecialPuppy1 26% of the vote seems kinda shitty idk, it's not like she lost 50-46

Just spoke to @POTUS about our European allies’ unwillingness to provide assets to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning, which benefits Europe far more than America. I have never heard him so angry in my life. I share that anger given what’s at stake. The arrogance of our allies to suggest that Iran with a nuclear weapon is of little concern and that military action to stop the ayatollah from acquiring a nuclear bomb is our problem not theirs is beyond offensive. The European approach to containing the ayatollah’s nuclear ambitions have proven to be a miserable failure. The repercussions of providing little assistance to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning are going to be wide and deep for Europe and America. I consider myself very forward-leaning on supporting alliances, however at a time of real testing like this, it makes me second guess the value of these alliances. I am certain I am not the only senator who feels this way.

Q: The Iranian regime has said if you put boots on the ground in Iran, it will be another Vietnam. Are you afraid of that? Trump: No, I'm not afraid of... I'm really not afraid of anything

Multiple Iranian sources including their Foreign Minster stating that the Trump admin is planting false stories to Axios reporters Barak Ravid and Marc Caputo about peace talks in order to manipulate oil and financial markets.

Trump: See the nice gold curtain? We have a magnificent ballroom being built. This whole floor will end up being a cocktail room for the cocktail area or pre area for the ballroom before dinners.

Everyone should read this entire thread. It's great because it's just President Trump's own words and messaging without opinion or fake news fluff. Kudos!

Broadcasters that are running hoaxes and news distortions - also known as the fake news - have a chance now to correct course before their license renewals come up. The law is clear. Broadcasters must operate in the public interest, and they will lose their licenses if they do not. And frankly, changing course is in their own business interests since trust in legacy media has now fallen to an all time low of just 9% and are ratings disasters. The American people have subsidized broadcasters to the tune of billions of dollars by providing free access to the nation’s airwaves. It is very important to bring trust back into media, which has earned itself the label of fake news. When a political candidate is able to win a landslide election victory after in the face of hoaxes and distortions, there is something very wrong. It means the public has lost faith and confidence in the media. And we can’t allow that to happen. Time for change!

Reporter: Your PAC sent out fundraising email using you at the dignified transfer. Trump: I was at the dignified transfer unlike a lot of other people Reporter: Do you think this is appropriate? Trump: I do. I didn’t see it. Who are you with? Reporter: ABC Trump: I think it's maybe the most corrupt news organizations on the planet. I think they're terrible. OK, I don't want any more from ABC.

KILMEADE: You think Putin is helping Iran? TRUMP: I think he might be helping them a little bit, yeah. And he probably thinks we're helping Ukraine, right? KILMEADE: And you are, right? TRUMP: Yeah, we're helping them also, and so he says that, and China would say the same thing. It's like, hey, they do it and we do it, in all fairness

Hegseth: No quarter, no mercy for our enemies. Yet some in the press just can't stop. More fake news from CNN reports that the Trump administration underestimated the Iran war's impact on the strait of hormuz. The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better.



Trump on Massie: We have to get rid of this loser. He is disloyal to the Republican party, disloyal to the people of Kentucky and most importantly, disloyal to the United States of America

(Reuters) - Nearly every U.S. Senate Democrat signed a letter sent to U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Wednesday requesting a "swift investigation" of airstrikes on a girls' school in Iran that killed scores of children and any other potential U.S. military actions causing civilian harm. Reuters reported on March 5 that U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for the strike on the school on February 28, as U.S. and Israeli forces launched attacks on Iran. "The results of this school attack are horrific. The majority of those killed in the strikes were girls between the ages of 7 and 12 years old. Neither the United States nor the Israeli Government has yet taken responsibility for this attack," the letter, signed by 46 senators, said.

Just what democrats want to be talking about in a midterm

Q: The military investigation has found that the US struck the school in Iran. Do you take responsibility for that? Trump: I don't know about that
