For the low low price of just a few hundred dead children and the GDP of a small country, Trump hopes to achieve an outcome otherwise only slightly worse than if he had never been born. Victory!
Name a song from your teenage years that still hits (both puts you immediately back in the time and place when you first heard it AND kicks ass to this day).
Forget just American interests for a second; what does this do long term to our alliesā and partnersā interests who are way more directly affected by this than we are? What does it say to them that weāre willing to go fuck shit up for them, and then just leave them to figure it out?
Like thatās not to say that I think we should stay and try to fight Iran to a standstill. This is probably the way this was fated to end the second it began. But justā¦this is like the US screaming to its allies, āyou canāt trust me; I canāt even trust myself.ā
Like thereās a difference between using something as a word and giving the proper name of an institution or title, right? Anyway.
This is obviously insane news but I have one small issue I want to drill down on: shouldnāt it be house style even in Britain to call him the ādefenseā secretary, not the ādefenceā secretary? It would be weird if I called the PM a member of the āLaborā party rather than āLabour,ā right?
Appropriations levels are law and Trump is violating the constitution by not taking care that they be faithfully executed and he has been since the day he began executing the powers of the presidency in 2025.
For everybody inclined to react to this with ātheyāre not acting like theyāre ever going to give up power,ā remember that theyāre catastrophic morons.
