Of course you don't. They were out in force on Jan 6 leading the insurrection. So you're good with that. The FBI used to care a great deal https://www.fbi.gov/news/speeches-and-testimony/confronting-white-supremacy

https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/2074302/humiliation-donald-trump-us-trade A drop in exports pushed the U.S. trade gap as appetite for US goods slowed amid US President Donald Trump's 'Freedom Day' tariff increases. In May the US goods trade gap widened 11.1% to $96.6 billion according to the nations Commerce Department's Census Bureau; exports of goods dropped $9.7 billion to $179.2 billion while imports were little changed at $275.8 billion. The official announcement came as sportswear giant Nike warned that tariffs will cost it around an extra one billion US dollars (£727 million).

i don't need to. maga's remind us constantly. At least we don't encourage white nationalist scum or foment treason.

he's both. his tariffs are idiotic. The bombing was a huge risk which may or may not have achieved his objectives. The spending bill is horrible adding trillions to the deficit and seriously damaging health care for the poor and rural hospitals. He's made them a cash cow for the rich. The manner he's instituting his deportation program is evil and relatively ineffective in the big picture. His cabinet picks were largely ridiculous especially Kennedy. We now know what he meant by that statement. It was a command to hold their fire til the time he commanded. They understood and obeyed. He's aligned with the white supremacist pigs. They are aligned with him. He proved that with the pardons. His congress scum go to their rallies and meet with them. He meets with them (Fuentes). But most of all, he's amoral. That may help him succeed but I think the costs outweigh the benefits especially in regards to the morals of his decent followers and the national ethos. The nation is losing decency by the minute.

I condemn antifa violence. Did any D ever tell to stand back and stand by? trump didn't condemn the proud boys, who were integral to the Jan 6 riot here.. In fact, he pardoned them. What did those words mean to you?

why don't you characterize his statement

Neo nazis and white nationalists are almost universally maga's. Remember the trump flags along with the Auschwitz T shirt on Jan 6. Or "stand down and stand ready" or whatever the orange gasbag (as you called him) dog whistled to the proud boys? CNN reported a leaked document later confirmed to have been written by military intelligence. That's their job. It's news. And the document is real.

The 1% need that tax break. Get it together MAGAs… https://www.theguardian.com/news/2025/jun/26/billionaires-wealth-oxfam-report

not if you have steeps to mow. tractor with weights is much safer.

so 3 month delay is acceptable. got it. doublespeak

Accuracy is a poor measure unless we were only attempting to prove capability results are what matter and those shiould be measured by Irans capabilitiy to develop nukes quickly ( before a nd after the strike. It seems to me the contingency plans you suggest all involve further military action which is far from ideal. If they call for further strikes we’ll know that the first strike was largely unsuccessful.

What's your threshold for success on this mission? Delaying a deliverable nuke by 6 months, 1 year, 2 years? The vax? The cdc under trump still highly recommends it https://www.cdc.gov/ncird/whats-new/covid-19-vaccine-effectiveness.html https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/73/wr/mm7304a2.htm If you're fat from basement dwelling it's especially important https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-06-covid-vaccine-severe-illness-death.html#google_vignette "The updated vaccines reduced the risk of ED and urgent care visits related to COVID-19 by 24%, hospitalizations by 29% and critical illness (intensive care unit admission or in-hospital death) by 48% during the first seven to 299 days after vaccination."

"There's not such thing as a winnable war" anymore, it seems. We should have learned that in the last 50 years. If we set the Iranians back several years, this particular intervention was likely worth it. If not, we wasted other peoples blood and our treasure supporting Israel. If they think they can finish the job, let them but without our help. If they don't, diplomacy is the best hope.

I need to give credit where credit is due. Today’s reported tongue lashing of Iran’s and Israel’s leaders gave them cover to say they had no choice. They save face. How long it will last is the question. It’s a good start.

The RINK alliance: Russia, Iran and N Korea. Except for nukes, they are all much weaker than us. Nukes are the equalizer, if there's anything left after. I guess 2 nuclear powers are better than 3 but there is still great danger. I hope Sting was right about the Russians. Not at all sure about NK....

get back to your patients...your more necessary to them to us.

at least you chose an analogy with something that's bad for you. I think liking puffer fish would be more apt.

i think Fox has an open spot for a military "personality".

yes, we know. not interested in any rebuttals. stop pretending you're the last word on any military operation.

and we're to understand that because of that, trump wasn't conspiring with Israel to finish their job. confidence doesn't equal knowledge of this situation. No doubt their are military men with as much or more experience that disagree. https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/iran-news/article-858612#google_vignette “Four days ago, there was a phone call between Netanyahu and the US president, during which Trump said, ‘I’ve decided to launch a strike,’” an Israeli official told The Jerusalem Post. Since Israel began attacking nuclear sites and other targets inside Iran about a week and a half ago, Netanyahu and Trump have spoken almost daily. According to both Israeli and US sources, the US president, along with senior US officials, was impressed by Israel’s success. In the days leading up to the operation, both Israel and the US employed deception tactics to create the impression of a profound disagreement between the two nations on whether the US would participate in the strike. There was plenty of time to involve Congress.

I didn't state it as fact. The "if" kinda gives it away. Was it a "five day delay" or was it a planned delay to let Israel neuter Iran's air defenses first? You don't know. I don't know. But you seem to believe your view as fact. I anticipated your argument to be "it doesn't matter. Needed to be done". And I would argue against that because of war powers....

We don't know this. "I want to thank and congratulate Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu. We worked as a team like perhaps no team has ever worked before, and we’ve gone a long way to erasing this horrible threat to Israel. I want to thank the Israeli military for the wonderful job they’ve done." The timing is vague at best. If we were working with them from the onset of the attack, that changes things imo. That would mean we were planning war all along which congress should have least been apprised of, if not voted on. The timing matters.

Putins propaganda machine is hardly a trusted source. But I certainly hope they are wrong. If not, we will likely see more 30000 pound bombs dropped. At this point, we're in for penny, in for a pound.
