    You can only “take the Strait of Hormuz” with a ground invasion of Iran. We found out the hard way an air campaign can’t dislodge Iran’s control of the Strait. But this is what the Iran hawks want. Full blown war.

    Graham: "If you don't have a diplomatic path through the MOU then you have to go to war…Let's try a diplomatic solution. I think it's going to fail…If this diplomatic effort fails, President Trump is gonna take the Strait of Hormuz — we're going to run it."

    Iran is willing to risk rupturing nuclear talks and closing the Strait of Hormuz because the regime believes it holds the "upper hand," a former Pentagon official who oversaw Middle East defense policy in the first Trump administration told ABC News.

    If we won he wouldn’t have signed a surrender document that gives them more concessions than every previous president combined.

    Correct. Trump buried Iran’s nuclear material so deep that, senior officials tell me, Iran has indicated the United States will have to dig it up because it can’t reach it to hand over. He also took out over 85 percent of Iran’s defense industrial base; sank its navy; grounded

    At the G7, the CEOs of the big AI companies sat at the table like heads of state, alongside presidents and prime ministers. This is the nightmare scene. Governments need to have a response to the state-like power of these companies, whether it’s by taking ownership shares,

    You paid for a plane with "a level of luxury that nobody has never seen before". And he's apparently taking it with him once he leaves the White House. The plane. The ballroom. The corruption. This guy thinks taxpayers are dopes. Your money is just his to live a life of luxury.

    The continuing price of Trump's incompetence. Trump signed a "deal" that was contingent on Israel ending it's disastrous war in Lebanon and apparently he didn't check that with Israel.

    The plan is for this plane to be in service for two years and then Trump will take if for himself. No President has ever stolen an Air Force for himself. And you paid for it. The total cost could be $1 billion of your money for a new luxury jet for Trump and his family.

    Don't believe this "peace plan" crap. This is the most war-obsessed Administration in decades. A list of places in which they have taken military action, killing thousands of civilians: Iran Venezuela Ecuador Syria The Caribbean Yemen Iraq Somalia Nigeria This list will grow.

    The humiliating Iran deal requires the U.S. to come up with a $300 billion reparations payment to Iran. That's more than Iran's entire GDP. Trump says taxpayers won't pay for it. 1/ So I compiled a helpful list.
