Against military action in Iran

 

I'm not sure what those 27% are thinking, or are they just going off vibes?

The USA has lost it's exceptionalism. Maybe it never was exceptional. From 1776 to 2025 it was an idealistic and virtuous country, sometimes less so, that narrative you can punch holes in it, but under Trump there is no righteousness or exceptionalism. We're just a grubby selfish country. How would invading be in our own best interest, or their best interest? The answer is it wouldn't.

Iran has squashed it's resistance, it's minority leadership, the shadow government waiting to take over that occurs in a democracy. If you take out the government, there aren't people waiting to take over. I think that's one thing democracies take for granted, that there are lots of people waiting in the wings waiting for their chance. The people who would potentially take over are in the administration, and that's problematic, it's not a change in regime. This is why Afghan failed when the US pulled out. Nobody is training to rule, except those ruling. So many people have left. You could have a bunch of people return to Iran but that's a problem too because they haven't been there. You have to live there to organically take over.

Trump just wants to distract from the bad economy, the low approval ratings in the worst way, and he's quite capable of doing the worst things. That's why he needs to be impeached for real as soon as possible. The midterms are coming and he's trying to cheat as much as possible to throw off the will of the people. It's all the wrong reasons for getting involved. 

I look at the Times and of course we've done something. "explosions across several cities, including Qom, Kermanshah, Isfahan and Karaj, according to Iran’s semiofficial Fars News Agency" (NY Times).

I think this is a major mistake.

"Iran fired a barrage of missiles and drones at Israel, the Revolutionary Guard Corps said in a statement on Telegram. It also launched missile attacks targeting U.S. military bases in the region, including Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, Al Dhafra Air Base in the United Arab Emirates, and the U.S. Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain, Fars reported."

It's the United States job not to provoke these attacks with their aggressive deployments.

Republicans will say anything to get elected, and then do something different. Read their behavior.

He's not even good at the things he says he's trying to do. He always lies though, ICE isn't about the job, it's about intimidating left wing cities. According to this graph, the people who want to get "illegal immigrants" out of the US should love Obama.

A public action by Viva Ruiz at the Vatican in support of female reproductive rights—part of her Thank God for Abortion project, which works to normalize conversations around reproductive healthcare and affirm open access to abortion.

Viva Ruiz’s *Thank God for Abortion* is an activist project that challenges stigma around abortion by reframing it as a moral, social, and healthcare issue rather than a source of shame. Through public actions, religious symbolism, and direct confrontation of institutions that restrict reproductive autonomy, the project works to normalize open conversations about abortion and affirm it as a valid, necessary part of reproductive healthcare.

Can you feel the opposition to Trump growing and sharpening?

 

Keep up the fight

There are moments and turning points, and I really feel like there's a turning point. The protests are really working, the information is getting out, the tide is turning. The regime has been exposed as bad for America, not a right or left lense, but the objective lense of everyone.

It's been really hard to find hope with all the destruction, murder, dysfunction and lying. The obvious wrong doing. 

I was talking to a woman who pushed back on every statement I made about the pedophile, about shooting women in the face, about killing someone who was helping a woman get up who was pushed over. She was not aware enough to know this is the worst and most corrupt regime in America. She tends to see all government as corrupt, and this is just another one. She doesn't vote, and is an immigrant. She just wants to keep her private life, and doesn't want to move back to Poland. She is a devoted mother, raising her daughter. The unwillingness to see things clearly in her, is very American.

The reckoning is coming. I can feel it. In an attempt by this regime to divide the nation and turn us against one another, it appears the country is instead beginning to unite against the regime. Now if only Congress, press and judiciary would do the same.

America just got a lesson in the need to pay attention to what candidates say, and need to think about politics, and vote with their rational brain.

With the murder of Renee Good, and Alex Pretti, and the release of the Epstein Files, the tide is turning. "you’ll end up as fertilizer like the other cunts"
