"Operation Epic Fury" sounds like something that goes on in Donny's diaper multiple times a day

Stephanie Lajeskie's avatar

What gives ME epic fury if the fact that Donny is telling the Iranian public to continue to rise up against their government, while at the same time, people here are being murdered for peacefully protesting ours. When is anyone going to “commit a journalism” and ask him to explain that?

HI2thDoc's avatar

The media continues to corrode under the oligarchs. Now that the fucking Ellisons have taken control of CNN, will Kaitlan Collins still be allowed to ask him tough questions?

Cyndi's avatar

Will Kaitlan Collins still be employed there?

Mary de Ridder's avatar

We can look out for her on Substack.. 🤷‍♀️

bruce somers's avatar

Can someone from the media please ask him again if he knows E. Jean Carroll??

HI2thDoc's avatar

Either of his standard bullshit responses would be said: "I don't know her, never met her" or "she's a nasty woman."

Elizabeth Schulz's avatar

OR recognize his then-girlfriend Marla Maples? They looked 'so much alike' he got confused, y'know. I STILL think he's refusing to pay E Jean the money he was ORDERED BY THE COURT to fork over AND her attorney's fees for his multiple defamations of her. The stingy greedy orange piggy will hang onto a fucking PENNY rather than pay it to a woman he's assaulted. I LOATHE him more with every passing second and NOW a school in Southern Iran has been hit with a missile killing (murdering) 80 innocent children!

djw's avatar

Since a girls school has already been hit and a bunch of little girls killed, I'm not sure what "public" he's expecting to "rise up", anyway. Sort of ironic that it was little girls, though . . .

Keith's avatar

what happened to precision targeting?

is a girls school a security threat?

maybe that's where iran hides all it enriched uranium. i mean, who in their right mind would have ill will towards little girls?

and want to fuk 'em up? or maybe just good ole they let me fuk'em, right?

when your famous, they just lay down and say 'do me donnie do me!'

ENOUGH GODDAMNIT ENOUGH!

FUK TRUMP!

According to Malcolm Nance, men will go outside when they hear the air raid sirens. It is buildings getting bombed. Can girls in Iran just go out when they want to in this heavy theocracy? They said the buildings guards and janitors will die a lot in this war because they cannot leave the buildings. It seems like a lot of women and girls will die. That was supposedly Israel that struck that girls school. What were they aiming at? The effect will probably be to spark outrage in the entire region which is not going to do Israel any good.

You sound like my kind of guy.

VOTING IS THE LEAST OF OUR WORRIES!

Leigh Hamilton's avatar

I'd rank voting as pretty high on the U.S.'s list of Very Important Things To Protect, but I agree with how you feel. We're all tired, angry, confused - you name it. It feels like it will never end and everyone covers for Trump, but take heart.

Heather Cox Richardson announced in her newsletter of Feb. 27th...well, I'll just quote her:

"On Monday, February 23, Daniel Ruetenik, Pat Milton, and Cara Tabachnick of CBS News reported a newly uncovered document in the Epstein files shows that the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) was running an investigation of Jeffrey Epstein and fourteen other people for drug trafficking, prostitution, and money laundering."

Things didn't get better for Trump by attacking Iran, they got exponentially worse. No one wants the war with Iran and now there is another investigation into a separate scandal from Epstein.

djw's avatar

Nonetheless, I like the way you think.

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

117 students and staff injured or killed, how will this impact a proposed regime change Doc?

Linda Weide's avatar

Israel bombed the girls school so I presume they, like the Ayatoloh, are going after the women.

Donald has demonstrated clearly that he doesn't give a flying fox for the American people - how much LESS does he care what happens to the Iranians? Once he gets his grubby little hands on their oil, he'll leave them flat.

He needs to be jailed for Treason. He has violated and raped the America Constution like he raped the Epstien Victims.

Barbara Vasile's avatar

Of course, Trump and Hegseth have not paused for one moment to consider to potential catastrophic consequences of their actions. Tragic loss of life, attacks by Iran in other countries, closed airports in the entire region, and who knows what else. And oh yeah, the possible loss to the US of oil shipments due to the fact that the Strait of Hormuz is currently closed.

BTW, somebody should tell Lauren Bobert (by speaking slowly) that supply chain problems are one of the things that can cause inflation.

I really love this one a lot. So lets get his straight. Fuck Face kills his own citizens for protesting, but now he wants to free the Iranian people so they can do exactly what two beautiful innocent Americans died for.

If he already obliterated Iran's nuclear weapons, why does he have to raise them up? It's raze Donnie Dumbfuck, not raise. It's frightening that we have so many cognitive addled, learning disabled GOP idiots in our government. I have an idea, why don't we send ICE agents over to the Middle East to fight Donnie's illegal war, since they're so gung ho to beat and kill people.

The problem about going back to bed is when you finally get up it will be worse Kay. Still its a good temporary plan.

I'm calling it Operation Epic Fuckup😂😂

Elizabeth Schulz's avatar

Are they really calling it that? Is the 'epic fury' over the fact that WE KNOW THEY LIED about not having 'obliterated' Iran's nuclear capabilities one iota? Not then and likely not now. His LIES about President Obama are still part of his rabid hatred for that good man - primarily because he's half black, half white and ALL class. THAT fact drives frump nuts, especially since Obama IS so intelligent and learned and DID negotiate with the Iranians successfully - which of course the bumbling orange fool tossed out becuz 'he would do it better' and now we're 'at war' - again. What the flying fuck? WHEN will the republican congress GROW BACK THEIR BALLS?! ONLY Congress can declare ANY War! THIS is now CLEAR GROUNDS for impeachment of this mad fucking fool - and now he's deliberately fomented a fucking WAR, killing untold numbers of innocent civilians to distract from what's been found in the EPSTEIN FILES ABOUT HIM!.

Elizabeth Schulz's avatar

PS: did ANYONE notice that it's supposed to be 'RAZED' and not 'raised' in his own stupid-azz troof social post? WHO DOESN'T have the ability to PROOFREAD THESE THINGS/OR the mental acuity of a High School Freshman? Gawd almighty! We're being ruled by a room full of uneducated half-wits!

Let there be no doubt, warring has always been in the orange buffoon’s bag of tricks to create a distraction from his corruption.

Joe Witkowski's avatar

Fred the Nazi paid for Don the Fascist to AUDIT one or two classes in the WHARTON SCHOOL. No credit earned by the senile pedophile narcoleptic fart factory.

Joe Witkowski's avatar

My point: Wharton is the Graduate Business School (MBA PROGRAM) of the University of Pennsylvania. “WHARTON” when you use it implies the MBA program, not the undergraduate business degree. I’m not an alum, but MBA alums of * THE WHARTON SCHOOL* are very sensitive to that distinction for good reason (dunces like Trump falsely claiming that he earned an MBA degree from The Wharton School.

Mary Hall's avatar

Understood. I know that T💩p does not have an MBA. Nevertheless, it is a quote about him that is attributed to a Wharton professor and could probably be echoed by every teacher he ever had. In the future I will leave out the "Wharton" reference so as not to confuse those who are unaware that he barely has a BA (IIRC his niece said T💩p paid someone to take his SATs).

Odd person out here but I don't think the Iran bombing is about the Epstein files. He clearly thinks he's been "exonerated" and DOJ has already stated it will not prosecute anyone in the files.

J Hardy Carroll's avatar

I was recently watching Downfall (which seems to be trending for some reason) and an early scene with Hitler and Speer walking around the enormous model of Germania while the Red Army shells the city reminded me so much of Trump's Washington plans. At one point Hitler remarks that the Soviets flattening Berlin will make it so much easier to rebuild after the war is over! "We've spent thousands of hours on this model, Speer," Hitler says at one point. Later, Eva Braun leads a rousing chorus of drunken antics that remind me of Kash Patel's locker room spasms (apparently so bad that even Trump was "displeased." Make of that what you will, people).

And now a couple of felonious murdering tyrants are co-warring in a last attempt to evade prison. The difference is that in Israel, the missiles are falling and citizens are dying. Here in the US, we need our own government to handle the citizen murders.

Seriously, when does this shit end? It's fucking EXHAUSTING. I want to jump to the end of the movie when Hitler shoots himself and Goebbels doses his family with cyanide, except part of me wants to see all these fuckheads arraigned and charged.

Such a completely reprehensible species. An evolutionary dead-end, for sure.

J Hardy Carroll's avatar

Well, for every thousand Stephen Millers we produce an Alice Walker, a Duke Ellington, a Kurt Cobain, a Billy Collins... a Jeff Tiedrich. We can't judge the entire species by the reprehensible behavior of a handful poorly-evolved emotionally stunted people who have hidden their mental illness with cruelty and ambition. Humans are uniquely susceptible to poison ideas (look at lawns, social media, and the low-fat diet as a few examples) but when the chips are down we are social beings. Every one of these assholes will reckon with their lives as they grow old and die. Perhaps some of them might even evolve. It's disheartening to see the worst people seem to go unpunished, but this has always been so. Everyone in Germany who avoided arrest was at least tacitly complicit in the atrocities. Ditto with Stalin's Russia and Kim's North Korea. All three of those nations had been devastated by war and lost a significant portion of their populations. America has not, but we've always been a culture more enamored of bullshit than truth. We want the myth of Mount Rushmore, not the realities of slavey, genocide, and racist imperialism that three of those four men exemplify (Lincoln alone escapes condemnation, so one out of four) let alone the genocide that applauded an egomaniacal immigrant to deface one of the Lakota's sacred mountains with four giant white faces and a pile of rubble three times larger than the sculptures. Mount Rushmore does stand for America in that way. Good idea that sounded amazing, but we never did shit about making it real.

Gina's avatar

"...devastated by war and lost a significant portion of their populations. America has not," Well, the original north america did

J Hardy Carroll's avatar

Between 1950 and 1953, the USAF bombed North Korea and destroyed 95% of all the buildings in the country as well as killing more than 20% of their population (with many more dying of starvation in the following years). During the second world war, at least 26 million Soviets died, about one in seven. 3.5 million Germans died between 1914 and 1918 in a war they pretty much started, but they had the humiliation of the Versailles treaty to contend with.

America has nothing even close to any of that.

Linda McCaughey's avatar

You know, that one out of four ratio on Rushmore probably applies to the entire species. Only 1/4 of it has any redeeming value. Not a ringing endorsement, huh.

and not enough to save us

Lois Henry's avatar

It probably starts innocently. To stop the fighting over food, one takes it all and passes it out fairly. Then there’s a food shortage so choices have to be made about who gets fed. There’s a schism and one group breaks off to find its own way.

Then war is invented.

J Hardy Carroll's avatar

Lord of the Flies, or The Gods Must Be Crazy. When White people landed on the shores of North America, the fifty million or so people who lived here for ten thousand years had been such good stewards of the land that there was virtually no evidence of their fairly advanced civilization. The had war and politics and tribute, as well as a sophisticated cosmology. The European immigrants were so heads-up-the-ass about their own world they couldn't see what was in front of them. They cheated and killed the natives peoples over and over, always stopping to pat themselves on the back while they did it. Now you drive across this beautiful country and it looks like a townhouse that has been occupied by drunken fratboys who kicked holes in the walls and shit in the kitchen sink. If you take an objective look at this country, it makes sense that Trump is the leader. We can be better, but it takes so much more work than most are willing to do.

I'm actually glad that I am old. I didn't expect to spend my last lovely days in endless war. That was not on my Batshit Bingo card.

Just another cruel distraction that will end in the needless and cruel loss of life. Release the Pedo Files. Prosecute the Pedophiles.

Handy needs to take a side hustle in porn to take her mind off of politics.

When she loses her perch in Congress, she can move on to Only Friends.

The dipshit wingnuts have been very busy today helping to kill students and other civilians as well as our own. It’s amazing the lengths that Bibi and Jabba will go to in order to stay out of jail and turn Gaza, and other parts of the Middle East, into another tasteless tourist trap.

He attacked Iran because Netanyahu told him to. They’re both fucking evil bastards

They are both evil bastard criminals who only ran for office TO STAY OUT OF PRISON.

Exactly- Nettie whispered sweet praise in Dump’s ear, and he caved in like he did with the NY Mayor.

This was all I had today jeff. We are buttfucking Iran and Iran is not sitting down taking it lightly, so they are missile volleying our shit. How long before the nukes come out?

But wait! Wasn't their nuclear capacity obliterated? It's all so confusing...

YEP everything blowed right up!

except for the important parts that were safely moved a day or two before.

so much for US INTELLIGENCE

i still remember WMDs.

liberate and save the people of viet nam so a democratic government could be successfully established.

Those were horrible times. Boys forced to go to war were disrespected when they returned home all fucked up. I believe that a lot of mental illness came out of the Viet Nam war. Then our Republican governor closed all the mental hospitals. Then he got dementia that was hidden until they couldn't hide it anymore. Does any of this sound familiar?

That was my thought exactly. When you're the little guy, you have to retaliate with something BIG. And there's an orange lunatic with his tiny hand on the button to "give it back" We are doomed...

IIRC, China said that if we attack Iran, we are essentially attacking China too.
