I just woke up to the news and all hell is breaking out in multiple nations across the Middle East
and the global ramifications of Trump and Bibis war are terrifying.
For the love of dog Trump is insane and needs to be stopped. Are there any adult Republicans
who will do the right thing and impeach Trump and help stop this madness? He wants to put
boots on the ground in Iran which will get God only knows how many killed but what is the
end game and is America going to get into picking sides as to whom governors Iran?
But in the good news the oil that Trump is stealing from Venezuela is gonna be worth a whole
lot more and both he and his buddy who just bought CITGO* for a fraction of its value in November
are going to make billions.

(9,659 posts)This war was started to distract from the Epstein files (among other issues involving corruption), but not due to imminent threats from Iran. There is no end in sight.
Lockheed MartIn's stock is booming and those of the rest of the MIC.
All polls show a clear majority is against this war and that will not change, as the orange $atan broke his campaign promise of "no new wars" and the price of everything is about to skyrocket (and that doesn't include the national debt that is going to explode before that other unwinnable war run by idiots and incompetents will end).

President Dwight Eisenhower warned of this over 60 years ago. He predicted perpetual wars with no justification, all for the enrichment of war profiteers at the expense of We the People. Blood money.
The MIC has an partner in Donnie the Destroyer. If there is a hell, he's punched his ticket.

They are all traitors.
Might find a decent human being in the R party somewhere, but it would not be in the house or Senate.

He accused President Obama of what he did himself.
BTW, Obama never did what Trump accused Obama of doing.
In Trump's mind, he is greatest President ever but not in polls of presidential historians.
But no reporter ever asks Trump that question.

US military launches operation in Ecuador to combat drug trafficking.
US and Ecuadorian forces have launched joint operations to combat drug trafficking, the US Southern Command said on Tuesday, but neither side gave more details.
Southern Command, which encompasses 31 countries through South and Central America and the Caribbean, said in a statement on X that the decisive action was aimed at combating illicit drug trafficking.
The Ecuador defense ministry said details of the offensive operations were classified.
The announcement came a day after the South American country said Washington had joined a new phase in its so-called war on drugs.
Ecuadors President Daniel Noboa, a close ally of Donald Trump, said Washington was among regional allies taking part in the operation against drug cartels, which use ports to smuggle cocaine to international markets. Now where is Donny Jr. gonna get his blow?

* Another summary of Project 2025s Iran plank describes it as advocating maximum political, diplomatic, and economic pressure, opposing any return to the 2015 nuclear deal, and aiming to block Irans regional ambitions, all with the stated goal of moving toward a free Iran and a renewed relationship with the Iranian people.
So while it is framed as supporting the Iranian people and using pressure tools rather than spelling out a step‑by‑step overthrow plan, the documents own language and outside analyses both characterize its endpoint as regime change in Iran.
I think there's some decent evidence this is all just another Project 2025 goal being brought to fruition, personally. Epstein concerns *might* (I lean towards "unlikely" here but it's possible) have affected timing, but not the overall action
