this post ran so long I didn't even get to Lindsey Graham wetting his pants with glee over the prospect of dead Iranians. what kind of psycho talks like this?
Repressing one's sexuality must lead to a lot of pent up frustration. No excuse for despicable behavior. He deserves a spot in the jam packed suite in hell along with the other grifters and war criminals.
IMAGINING that the entire WORLD doesn't know who and what he is. This after originally being 'best friends' with John McCain AND Joe Biden who highly respected each other even as they vehemently disagreed about policy matters. There's a video (which WE should run nonstop) of Ms Lindsay in the back of a Limo waxing eloquently about just HOW GOOD OF A MAN Joe Biden is, with tears in his eyes, voice choked with emotion. It might have been when John McCain died - unsure but he specifically states 'and you can hold me to this'! He's disgraced himself by jumping onto the frump bandwagon and is DISGRACEFUL!
While Linseed Graham Cracker is dancing on the graves of schoolchildren, Russia is the biggest winner of this "Operation Epic Epstein Diversion". Every multi-million dollar bomb we toss at Iran - which they shoot down with their unlimited supply of $20,000 drones - is one less bomb that could have gone to Ukraine, who has a legitimate need for self-defense. China is also paying close attention to how many bombs we're wasting, and how much America is crumbling into disarray. Our allies, the few we have left, are banging their virtual heads against the real wall of hubris and ignorance our country has thrown up against all reason, while the global economy is in nosedive for everyone except Russia. The formerly sanctioned oil and natural gas of Russia is now the only viable source for India, China, Africa.....
I could go on. The damage being done is not only in Iran. In fact, we are hurting ourselves most, and our allies second. Iran? They'll be a smoking crater, but even more fanatical when the smoke clears. As long as one Ayatollah survives, and one nuclear scientist, and they have a shovel and a wheelbarrow between them, we will have an enemy that passionately hates us and won't rest until they have revenge.
All they really need to do is wait, and watch as we self-destruct. They might even pass the popcorn to Russia, China, and anyone else who hates us...so, basically, the whole world.
Why isn't the fact Trump's bestie Vlad is helping the Iranians a bigger news story? Maybe he pushed Trump into it because it helps Russia? But shouldn't someone be reporting and doing an analysis of this scary turn of events? Seems more important than the stupid hat Trump wore on his fat head.
MAGA is rotting from the inside, and the planet is on fire — but we're still here, still loud, still gathering. Today's Daily Exhale doesn't flinch. Come get your morning rage well-organized.
How many of these sumg fuckers in the Trump Regime have children or other family members on active duty? We know Nikki Haley’s husband is in the reserves(?), maybe that’s why she’s not part of this shitshow; she knew that if she were in the regime, she’d be a party to decisions that could put him in harm’s way.
How about the Lutnicks, the Bessents, does Hegseth have draft age children from one of his earlier marriages? What about the warmongers at Fox News? Any adult children in active duty?
There’s always Barron Trump; they say he’s 6’ 9” which is over the height requirement of 80” (6’ 8”), but they also claim that Trump is 6’ 3” and 239 lbs.
My son is 35 and not in danger of being drafted. My oldest grandson is 18 and still in High School. He’s also very overweight and has other issues that may exempt him from service. My youngset grandson will be 1 year old in a couple of weeks, hopefully the war in Oceania will be over before he turns 18.
There's a jam packed suite in hell for the whole lot of them. First i'd like to see them tried at the Hague and then sent to Alligator Alcatraz or Cecot.
I’m thinking Lady Lindsey had a mighty hard on, or what would pass for one with him, when he was doing all his blathering about blowing the hell out of Iran.
You reckon the fatfuck is so protected from the real world—and so fucking stupid and mush-brained—that he doesn’t have any idea about the events swirling around him? Is there no one in that protective orb that even gives a fuck? I can’t think of anyone. Not a single one.
the war is unpopular but it's also illegal but it also doesn't serve any purpose but it also undermines diplomacy but it also is set to produce the opposite outcome as intended but it also already has hundreds dead and threatens more but it also will not make anything better for anyone but it also
When you look at the impressive crowd of defense contractors that immediately lined up to receive massive federal contracts to rachet up production, it's clear this will be a decades-long, multifront assortment of wars. This is why Republicans and four corporate Democrat fuckheads voted to approve the war.
Pretty much. Although he may have a couple of others who tell hims what they think he needs to know or believe for the next hour or so. But it makes me wonder if whoever is feeding that info then gets the word out to the fluffers and on the accepted sentence of the moment.
I think you’re on the money there Neil. Where I’m from we had a sports venue called ARCO Arena. A lot of us called it ECHO Arena because it was not ideal for concerts. All the songs were in 20 part harmony.
Anyway, Trump does have an ARCO Arena built around him that includes Fox News and all the rest of the ne’er-do-wells out there.
The combo of the echo chamber and the balls to the wall insanity of their endtimes, q-anon internet nuttiness, amplified by their fearful insularity, man… But it’s always the people who know the least who are most certain about their beliefs.
Don't forget Natalie Harp, whose job is to feed Trump a steady stream of information on 8.5×11″ pieces of paper that she's found online. GOOD news. Stuff that praises him and announces him as the new Messiah, the greatest general ever, the most perfect man, the brightest intellect, the hope of the nation and the world, etc... She goes everywhere he goes - including riding the links with Trump on Sundays in Florida.
It’s the only thing! And it’s so far off the charts we can’t see how far it’s gone! Please institute a govt mandate Narcissism Test for any one running for Presz/VP…
I did see a poll that showed the hardcore base is 90% favorable. Of course, that 90% is about 20% of the voting-eligible public. As always, the problem is voter motivation and voter suppression.
Gee, I remember when the Republicans lost their minds because the Obamas went to New York City for brief weekend date to go to a restaurant and see a show.. They screamed that there was STUFF going on in the world and he should be working 24/7, not playing. Where are those Republicans now? Oh right, they're on their knees groveling before Trump, cleaning his special loafers with their tongues.
Calling out Republicans for their shameless hypocrisy is like calling out Dunkin' Donuts for their high calorie products. Their public would just say, "It's why we're here, right?"
I remember every time Joe Biden went to the beach in Delaware on summer weekends. Fox and the rest of the right wing noise machine went nuts. Here's the deal, Delaware is just a short helicopter ride from the White House; didn't need that 747 like Trump needs every time he goes to one of his roach infested golf resorts.
I know. It seems like any time a Democrat went to the bathroom he was wasting tax dollars and they love t boast about how Trump is (allegedly) donating his presidential salary to charity (doubtful; he's never been caught donating anything) but one golf weekend costs the taxpayers more than double the president's entire annual salary.
Doesn’t that just kill you Anastasia how the high and mighty frugal Republicans have their mouth zipped shut when it comes to all the waste and corruption going on by “their boy”. They have no shame.
I don't think he's Bibi's tool. He doesn't do anything or help anyone unless there's something in it for him personally. Except for Putin who must have a lot of goods on him.
The Dow might motivate the wealthy assholes to do something… I have no idea what will happen but something has to give. Maybe he could just drop dead???
My husband spoke w/ our investment advisor just this morning. Usually, they talk on the phone, or video chat, or email.
THIS time, he said he needed to see us FACE TO FACE. Last time he wouldn't talk to us in any way OTHER than face to face, was in 2018....when #Bumblefuck was in the WH the *first* time, & our investment portfolio began to TANK. Thankfully, after President Biden went into office, our investments leveled out, then the values went back up to where they had been - AND THEN SOME.
I'm disabled, & those investments are meant to be SECURITY for me. When our INVESTMENTS tank, MY FINANCIAL SECURITY TANKS, TOO.
And guess who's financial security ONLY GETS *BETTER* when he screws us over?
Me too Mr Mild…but for how long? Mr poopy pants sees all that money going out in social security and it will make much more sense for it to go into his poopy pockets.
That may be our only hope Susan. The kids are too busy with their heads stuck in video games. The rest of us do what we can. I wish I had the energy to be fighting wars on all fronts but I don’t
Recently I googled whether any member of the Trump family has served in the US military.
I found out that,indeed, not a single male Trump has ever served. That includes his father Fred, who avoided service in WWII, and his grandfather Frederich who actually immigrated to the US to avoid serving in the German army! So I guess it's kind of a family tradition for all the Trump males to avoid serving.
Friedrich immigrated twice, the second time illegally since he was deported the first time for running a brothel on land that belonged to someone else. But when he went back to Hesse he found that the authorities there had not forgotten his previous draft dodging, so he snuck back into the US.
I'm not sure it would be a deterrent for the iDJiT. His family, especially his sons, are only useful to him as props and alternate incomes. He might even love the idea of proudly standing with his boys in full dress uniforms at the military base...where they will stay, safely behind desks. Junior could have his cocaine picked up in the Caribbean before he bombs the boats. Barron could play computer war games....and call it "military planning and research".
And, Stephanie, I would like to add that he should be leading the charge. He’s got a backup so if he wants to lead us into war then he should lead us into war if he thinks it’s that important.
I’m not trying to be funny here.
I don’t care if he’s a democrat or republican—if he thinks that war is the only solution then he should lead the charge or shut the fuck up!
It should be in the constitution with no exceptions
You've really got to compile all of these poems and put them in a book. Or maybe you and Frosty could collaborate on a book of poetry. Bet you could make big bucks.
I heard that Russia is making bank with their own oil exports now, and I would not be surprised if there were kickbacks galore in the international markets. Same for Saudi oil revenue, and we know how the Saudis have bought Jared and trump
We do know that the Dow does penetrate Trump’s bubble. At what point does the skyrocketing price of oil impact the declining Dow average to the point where Trump’s billionaire pals tell him to call off the dogs? What’s the inflection point where Trump can declare victory and go home? It’s a duel between his fragile ego and the continued support of the oligarchy
Whar Blam Bondi and her screaming about the "$50,000 Dow?" Yeah, it crested that threshold for hours to a few days at most. It won't be there for a while now, as the price of oil spikes, the markets are tanking, inflation will rise, interest rates will rise, and turmoil will reign. All because this greedy, stupid rapist fucker and his crooked family are bought by Putin, Netanyahu, MBS, and want a distraction from the Epstein files. People's lives mean less than nothing to him.
From what is slowly being revealed by the Epstein files, the scale and scope of the horrors perpetrated by him and enabled by his minions, hangers-on, and the apparently numerous co-conspirators is both frightening and sickening. They must all pay for their brutal transgressions. A just and moral universe requires this. People like publicist Peggy Siegal, possibly those high-end NYC gynecologists, and many others who knew or should have known what he was doing should also pay for their complicity.
He CAN'T declare victory and go home. Unless he withdraws all US forces from the Mideast, which would be an obvious admission of defeat, the war continues as long as Iran can continue to launch any attacks.
Your post reminds me of when in 1979 protesters gathered outside Cornell Medical Center in NYC when the Shah was being treated for cancer signing “Shah Shah Shah of Iran” to the Beachboy song Barbara Ann.
I pulled out Jonathan Kwitny’s “Endless Enemies” (1984). Story is a little more nuanced but a NY Times “journalist” was a hack for the CIA in ‘53 (wonderful to know the coup occurred when I was 6 months old and then celebrated my first birthday with another one in Guatemala). According to Kwitny, the Tudeh Party [Communist] newspaper gave an accurate account of the street shit the CIA paid for, while the Times’ reporter was not. We were Fox News’d then as well. And Mossadegh was an anti-communist.
"for a while there, in the late 1940s and early 1950s, Iran was a peaceful, western-style democracy, complete with free and fair elections. in 1951, their democratically-elected leader was Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh." This is an utter falsification. Iran was a constitutional monarchy, until Mossadegh's party won the largest bloc in Parliament by assassinating the previous Prime Minister and many of the other parties' candidate in a very violent election campaign. Mossadegh did cobble together a majority coalition until he nationalized British Petroleum, a move that was highly popular but perceived by many in the elite as dangerous. So he dissolved Parliament, saying that too many of them were bribed by the British (doubtless true) and instead of scheduling elections for a new Parliament, held a referendum on whether he should be allowed to rule by decree. The Shah said he could not do this, and was driven out of the country.
Mossadegh's power relied on the Tudeh, a Communist party aligned to Stalin, and the Ulema, the senior clergy containing the most reactionary ayatollahs. These two shared a hatred of the UK in particular and Western culture in general, but obviously had very different visions of the country's future. The strain caused Mossadegh to have some kind of stroke or heart attack, but he would not relinquish power even though bedridden: a reporter who interviewed him in bed said it was like "talking to an angry sofa." British intelligence wanted him overthrown, but the government hoped his regime would collapse by itself. Some MI6 agents then fed our CIA (in its infancy back then) false intelligence that Mossadegh intended to purge the Ulema and go full Communist.
Kermit Roosevelt, CIA station chief in Teheran (from Teddy's branch of the family not FDR's), helped military officers who were alarmed at the developments get in touch with each other when otherwise they dared not speak out loud. Although the US did not provide any personnel or arms to the coup, the logistical role of the US embassy was crucial to organizing the overthrow of Mossadegh and return of the Shah. The Shah immediately started acting as an absolute monarch, with bloody purges of all his enemies, and repression of anyone even suspected of being Communist or Islamic that continued for decades. It was a tragic turn of events, but pretending that Iran was a Jeffersonian democracy before, and that it was not Iranians who carried out the coup, is an exercise in myth-making.
Not to brag, but I still have a “Fuck Iran” button from 1979 and I pinned one to a rafter at McSorley’s, too. I haven’t been back to see if it’s still there.
While people call out the disrespect demonstrated by the criminal elect for advertising his hat merchandise while supposedly honoring the soldiers who paid the ultimate sacrifice —have we forgotten his earlier comments characterizing our fallen as “losers and suckers”? I have not.
Do you think the 🍊💩👜 sells the hats that he wears for mega bucks to the sycophants? That was my second thought after “what a fucking piece of shit” when I saw the buffoon in the stupid hat.
I still can’t believe these are the people in charge of our country…it is disgraceful, disgusting and sickening….Oh and Kermit LOVED Miss Piggy-so there is THAT! lol
Sooooooo funny! I hadn’t thought about my vote being absolutely worthless when people like him can get elected. We are a nation of Neanderthals and I apologize to Neanderthals for stating that.
We are worse than Neanderthals. Eight U.S. soldiers and over 1,500 Iranians killed now in Trump and Bibi's war and the official reaction is "meh." But one Charlie Kirk taking a bullet at a rally, and it's America Goes Apeshit.
And, wait for it: Golly, who could have seen oil prices spiking? Next: Love it or leave it. If you don’t support Trump’s war you aren’t real American. So we have it now. A cosplay Secretary of Defense cum War, and a war looking for a strategy. Meanwhile, Pam, the DJIA is well below 50,000, and dear leader is most certainly NOT exonerated in the Epstein files. As for Mr. Graham: GFY.
So the days before the bombs some congress members bought heavily into oil company stocks, we need the list in print and online. Rigged is what I like to say and it’s why they stay in the gov, to make the big bucks.
Lindsey Graham was an Air Force jag officer. What kind of a lawyer would shout something like this with orgasmic glee, reveling over dead children? Jesus, what an a-hole.
this post ran so long I didn't even get to Lindsey Graham wetting his pants with glee over the prospect of dead Iranians. what kind of psycho talks like this?

"LINDSEY GRAHAM: Israel and the United States -- you just wait to see what comes the next two weeks

Graham is just filled with glee at the thought of blowing. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink

Edited it lol.
IMAGINING that the entire WORLD doesn't know who and what he is. This after originally being 'best friends' with John McCain AND Joe Biden who highly respected each other even as they vehemently disagreed about policy matters. There's a video (which WE should run nonstop) of Ms Lindsay in the back of a Limo waxing eloquently about just HOW GOOD OF A MAN Joe Biden is, with tears in his eyes, voice choked with emotion. It might have been when John McCain died - unsure but he specifically states 'and you can hold me to this'! He's disgraced himself by jumping onto the frump bandwagon and is DISGRACEFUL!
lady linds has alot of company in this regime...those closets run very deep
Ya beat me to it, Kay 😂
I just saw that Doc. GMTA

Also BBQ
You know, smoking pork

Kay you naughty girl!
You found me out Frank. 😏
Before they put a microphone in front of Linseed there should be a breathalyzer requirement.
It seemed he was at least 3 martinis deep before his rambling nonsense.
And Lindsey’s face looked kinda purple the other day
You pegged it David: three sheets to the wind
Utterly ghoulish, but there are no standards...Graham is a Republican after all.
And he’s doing a bang up job as pricktators mouth piece!
So to speak… 🤣
Fluffer-in-chief Lindsey Graham.
And we now have "Bubba".
Ewwwww
Graham knows blowing, apparently

This is what happens when you're stuffed in lockers as a child and then stuffed in the closet for your entire adult life.
If only John McCain were alive to rein in Miss Lindsey
except for the part where McCain used to go around singing "bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran..."
If only Congress were alive to rein in Trump.
Nah, McCain sucked too.
So, Miss Lindsey is a sadist too. Well, well.
He's kind of like Trump's Renfield, plucking flies out of the air and calling them "sky raisins." So much "Yes, Master"-ing.

I just Googled that. Indeed he does. He and his husband have a boy and a girl via surgogacy.

Again ewwww
Miss Lindsey appeared to be super high on something.
Drunker than a skunk!
Like she was on the night of January 6 and gave that little "I tried to be helpful" self pity speech.
Ketamine or coke.
Cannot wait for the lot of them to expire
There's a jam packed suite in hell for the whole lot of them. First i'd like to see them tried at the Hague and then sent to Alligator Alcatraz or Cecot.
Lyndsey got strangely excited about killing. What else is in his closet?

Didn't congress give Donald war powers? Or did they just vote to down stopping him. I can't keep up with republican cowardice?
“House votes down resolution to curb Trump's Iran war powers” (was how I understood it)
which doesn't actually give it Congressional approval . . .
it's more of a Monkey no see / Monkey no hear / Monkey no speak scenario.
🙈 🙉 🙊
it's just another round of Congressional ass kissing
& slow-walking, looking the other way at a pivotal moment, weasel-words… selective editing… retraction on page 36/below the fold… the list goes on
Approval? We ain't got no approval. We don't need no approval. I don't have to show you any stinking approval!
When you look at the impressive crowd of defense contractors that immediately lined up to receive massive federal contracts to rachet up production, it's clear this will be a decades-long, multifront assortment of wars. This is why Republicans and four corporate Democrat fuckheads voted to approve the war.
I hope those four corporate Dem fuckheads get voted out at the first opportunity. It's the worst possible time for them to side with the Rethugs.
We were warned but our leaders didn't listen.
but it also removes ep stein 📂 from front & center
Well said P123Sunny. Following trump there’s an infinite amount of “ands” and “alsos’” and they’re ALL bad.
Pretty much. Although he may have a couple of others who tell hims what they think he needs to know or believe for the next hour or so. But it makes me wonder if whoever is feeding that info then gets the word out to the fluffers and on the accepted sentence of the moment.

Don't forget Natalie Harp, whose job is to feed Trump a steady stream of information on 8.5×11″ pieces of paper that she's found online. GOOD news. Stuff that praises him and announces him as the new Messiah, the greatest general ever, the most perfect man, the brightest intellect, the hope of the nation and the world, etc... She goes everywhere he goes - including riding the links with Trump on Sundays in Florida.

Not the worst idea. After all, his narcissism is a powerful thing.

Perfect way to word it.
We'll have to get someone to explain reevaluate to him.
I’m sure he must say something like “I don’t wanna hear about all that shit. I wanna hear how we’re doing, so get out there and do it!"
Pro’ly
He thinks approval of the war is at 90%, so I’m sure he “knows” anything that he wants to.
I did see a poll that showed the hardcore base is 90% favorable. Of course, that 90% is about 20% of the voting-eligible public. As always, the problem is voter motivation and voter suppression.
Gee, I remember when the Republicans lost their minds because the Obamas went to New York City for brief weekend date to go to a restaurant and see a show..

Yes Major. Trump is the Number One King when it comes to blowing money. Lyndsey drools over that amount of blowing
And every week they screamed about how many times he played GOLF!
Remember he said, "I won't be playing golf; I'll be too busy working"? Ha! Follow the Donald Trump golf tracker here: https://didtrumpgolftoday.com

You’re right Anastasia. The hypocrisy is so thick that you can cut it with a knife (scratch that—“chain saw”

I’m terrified to go online and look at it now. Good thing we also have Social Security to fall back on. /s
My husband spoke w/ our investment advisor just this morning. Usually, they talk on the phone, or video chat, or email.
THIS time, he said he needed to see us FACE TO FACE. Last time he wouldn't talk to us in any way OTHER than face to face, was in 2018....when #Bumblefuck was in the WH the *first* time, & our investment portfolio began to TANK. Thankfully, after President Biden went into office, our investments leveled out, then the values went back up to where they had been - AND THEN SOME.
I'm disabled, & those investments are meant to be SECURITY for me. When our INVESTMENTS tank, MY FINANCIAL SECURITY TANKS, TOO.
And guess who's financial security ONLY GETS *BETTER* when he screws us over?
Fuck that guy! 🖕
Right behind you Lin!
re Social Security: you had me at /s
ohhhhhh 💩
Ha!
Me too Mr Mild…but for how long? Mr poopy pants sees all that money going out in social security and it will make much more sense for it to go into his poopy pockets.
IDK they’ve been prepping for this for awhile… :/
Yes, it’s below 50,000 …. dollars!
😂😂
lol!!
I like this plan!
That designation is too benign.
🙏
That may be our only hope Susan. The kids are too busy with their heads stuck in video games. The rest of us do what we can. I wish I had the energy to be fighting wars on all fronts but I don’t
I think there should be a law that requires any president who starts a war to have at least one close family member serving in the military.
Except, in Donnie Demento's case, he still wouldn't give a flying fuck.
That would be a superb law!!
Recently I googled whether any member of the Trump family has served in the US military.
I found out that,indeed, not a single male Trump has ever served. That includes his father Fred, who avoided service in WWII, and his grandfather Frederich who actually immigrated to the US to avoid serving in the German army! So I guess it's kind of a family tradition for all the Trump males to avoid serving.
Friedrich immigrated twice, the second time illegally since he was deported the first time for running a brothel on land that belonged to someone else. But when he went back to Hesse he found that the authorities there had not forgotten his previous draft dodging, so he snuck back into the US.
Wow. Good spot KMD!
I'm not sure it would be a deterrent for the iDJiT. His family, especially his sons, are only useful to him as props and alternate incomes. He might even love the idea of proudly standing with his boys in full dress uniforms at the military base...where they will stay, safely behind desks. Junior could have his cocaine picked up in the Caribbean before he bombs the boats. Barron could play computer war games....and call it "military planning and research".
Can we send Malignia?
Not just serving. You can serve and be in a nice, clean office in the US. They need to be in the infantry on front lines.
And, Stephanie, I would like to add that he should be leading the charge. He’s got a backup so if he wants to lead us into war then he should lead us into war if he thinks it’s that important.
I’m not trying to be funny here.
I don’t care if he’s a democrat or republican—if he thinks that war is the only solution then he should lead the charge or shut the fuck up!
It should be in the constitution with no exceptions
Let's not forget Ivanka's dipstick
Jared, the avaricious prick
He's a man for no seasons
who got 2 billion reasons
Some day the charges will stick
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You've really got to compile all of these poems and put them in a book. Or maybe you and Frosty could collaborate on a book of poetry. Bet you could make big bucks.
Thanks. It's an outlet for my frustration, dismay, and rage.
👏👏👏👏
Jared is tRumPutin's negotiator. He's probably not very happy right now, seeing all his oil deals blow up.
I heard that Russia is making bank with their own oil exports now, and I would not be surprised if there were kickbacks galore in the international markets. Same for Saudi oil revenue, and we know how the Saudis have bought Jared and trump
We do know that the Dow does penetrate Trump’s bubble. At what point does the skyrocketing price of oil impact the declining Dow average to the point where Trump’s billionaire pals tell him to call off the dogs? What’s the inflection point where Trump can declare victory and go home? It’s a duel between his fragile ego and the continued support of the oligarchy
Whar Blam Bondi and her screaming about the "$50,000 Dow?" Yeah, it crested that threshold for hours to a few days at most. It won't be there for a while now, as the price of oil spikes, the markets are tanking, inflation will rise, interest rates will rise, and turmoil will reign. All because this greedy, stupid rapist fucker and his crooked family are bought by Putin, Netanyahu, MBS, and want a distraction from the Epstein files. People's lives mean less than nothing to him.
Especially little girls.
From what is slowly being revealed by the Epstein files, the scale and scope of the horrors perpetrated by him and enabled by his minions, hangers-on, and the apparently numerous co-conspirators is both frightening and sickening. They must all pay for their brutal transgressions. A just and moral universe requires this. People like publicist Peggy Siegal, possibly those high-end NYC gynecologists, and many others who knew or should have known what he was doing should also pay for their complicity.
All the people who should have known should go to prison for life.
Somewhere I read that when they searched his house they found prescriptions whose primary purpose is to stop vaginal bleeding. 🤮
Yeah, but it's also the retirement savings for millions of stupid Americans who voted for him.
And all of us who didn't vote for him
He CAN'T declare victory and go home. Unless he withdraws all US forces from the Mideast, which would be an obvious admission of defeat, the war continues as long as Iran can continue to launch any attacks.
He has no compunction about spilling other people’s blood for his own demented,corrupt agenda
I love “Preznit Fuckwit”, but please bring back “King Fuckface the First”
That’s my favorite, Jeff
good catch, I'd completely forgotten that one
Let’s add felon to those titles
Your post reminds me of when in 1979 protesters gathered outside Cornell Medical Center in NYC when the Shah was being treated for cancer signing “Shah Shah Shah of Iran” to the Beachboy song Barbara Ann.
I remember, too. I really did give a super-condensed history lesson in today's post
And it really was very much appreciated, Jeff. More people need to know this stuff.
Your post would run for weeks if you did otherwise.
and anyway, Heather Cox Richardson would do a much better job of it
It was very informative. Now I'm well and truly freaked out all over again.
I learned a lot today. Thank you.
But she doesn't make me laugh out loud.
I pulled out Jonathan Kwitny’s “Endless Enemies” (1984). Story is a little more nuanced but a NY Times “journalist” was a hack for the CIA in ‘53 (wonderful to know the coup occurred when I was 6 months old and then celebrated my first birthday with another one in Guatemala). According to Kwitny, the Tudeh Party [Communist] newspaper gave an accurate account of the street shit the CIA paid for, while the Times’ reporter was not. We were Fox News’d then as well. And Mossadegh was an anti-communist.
"for a while there, in the late 1940s and early 1950s, Iran was a peaceful, western-style democracy, complete with free and fair elections. in 1951, their democratically-elected leader was Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh." This is an utter falsification. Iran was a constitutional monarchy, until Mossadegh's party won the largest bloc in Parliament by assassinating the previous Prime Minister and many of the other parties' candidate in a very violent election campaign. Mossadegh did cobble together a majority coalition until he nationalized British Petroleum, a move that was highly popular but perceived by many in the elite as dangerous. So he dissolved Parliament, saying that too many of them were bribed by the British (doubtless true) and instead of scheduling elections for a new Parliament, held a referendum on whether he should be allowed to rule by decree. The Shah said he could not do this, and was driven out of the country.
Mossadegh's power relied on the Tudeh, a Communist party aligned to Stalin, and the Ulema, the senior clergy containing the most reactionary ayatollahs. These two shared a hatred of the UK in particular and Western culture in general, but obviously had very different visions of the country's future. The strain caused Mossadegh to have some kind of stroke or heart attack, but he would not relinquish power even though bedridden: a reporter who interviewed him in bed said it was like "talking to an angry sofa." British intelligence wanted him overthrown, but the government hoped his regime would collapse by itself. Some MI6 agents then fed our CIA (in its infancy back then) false intelligence that Mossadegh intended to purge the Ulema and go full Communist.
Kermit Roosevelt, CIA station chief in Teheran (from Teddy's branch of the family not FDR's), helped military officers who were alarmed at the developments get in touch with each other when otherwise they dared not speak out loud. Although the US did not provide any personnel or arms to the coup, the logistical role of the US embassy was crucial to organizing the overthrow of Mossadegh and return of the Shah. The Shah immediately started acting as an absolute monarch, with bloody purges of all his enemies, and repression of anyone even suspected of being Communist or Islamic that continued for decades. It was a tragic turn of events, but pretending that Iran was a Jeffersonian democracy before, and that it was not Iranians who carried out the coup, is an exercise in myth-making.
How about when McCain was singing Bomb Bomb Bomb Iran in 2007?
Yes, I do. He always wanted to turn Iran into a parking lot.
Now those were days!
Not to brag, but I still have a “Fuck Iran” button from 1979 and I pinned one to a rafter at McSorley’s, too. I haven’t been back to see if it’s still there.
Thank you Jeff.
While people call out the disrespect demonstrated by the criminal elect for advertising his hat merchandise while supposedly honoring the soldiers who paid the ultimate sacrifice —have we forgotten his earlier comments characterizing our fallen as “losers and suckers”? I have not.
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/john-kelly-confirms-trump-privately-disparaged-us-service-members-vete-rcna118543
Agree-he has no respect for the sacrifice our soldiers are making or made…so he didn’t care what the hell he looked like with that damn hat! Jerk.
Do you think the 🍊💩👜 sells the hats that he wears for mega bucks to the sycophants? That was my second thought after “what a fucking piece of shit” when I saw the buffoon in the stupid hat.
He doesn’t need the hat to say what a piece of shit he is - i say it 12x a day!
Same, although I usually throw in “fucking” before piece of shit.
And only 12?!?
Yes -hats, shoes, invisible phone/bricks, crypto, and probably auctioning off parts of the demolished East wing.
Yes, and it costs $55 plus shipping.
Yes. They're stocked in the White House gift shop.
I still can’t believe these are the people in charge of our country…it is disgraceful, disgusting and sickening….Oh and Kermit LOVED Miss Piggy-so there is THAT! lol
Well, Trump was right about one thing. He said that if I voted for Kamala Harris, we'd find ourselves in a war with Iran. I did. And we are.
Sooooooo funny! I hadn’t thought about my vote being absolutely worthless when people like him can get elected. We are a nation of Neanderthals and I apologize to Neanderthals for stating that.
We are worse than Neanderthals. Eight U.S. soldiers and over 1,500 Iranians killed now in Trump and Bibi's war and the official reaction is "meh." But one Charlie Kirk taking a bullet at a rally, and it's America Goes Apeshit.
Oy! Do we have to keep bringing that asshole’s name up? Has he reached Martyrdom yet?
(But I did like your post)
1. It’s 47 years to remind people that 47 is in “charge” thinks Tom Cotton-Between-the-Ears
2. Fox doesn’t regret anything until someone points out what assholes they are.
I agree with you 100%!
And, wait for it: Golly, who could have seen oil prices spiking? Next: Love it or leave it. If you don’t support Trump’s war you aren’t real American. So we have it now. A cosplay Secretary of Defense cum War, and a war looking for a strategy. Meanwhile, Pam, the DJIA is well below 50,000, and dear leader is most certainly NOT exonerated in the Epstein files. As for Mr. Graham: GFY.
You can refer to Hegseth as Secretary of War Crimes.
Thanks, I’ll add that to my vocabulary.
So the days before the bombs some congress members bought heavily into oil company stocks, we need the list in print and online. Rigged is what I like to say and it’s why they stay in the gov, to make the big bucks.
Lindsey Graham was an Air Force jag officer. What kind of a lawyer would shout something like this with orgasmic glee, reveling over dead children? Jesus, what an a-hole.
His law days are long gone—- he only thinks like a right wing nut nowadays; and his lips firmly secured on Drumpf’s arse
And assorted wieners…..
So miss Lindsey was a jag off?
