“Targets included missile launch sites and Iranian boats attempting to emplace mines. U.S. Central Command continues to defend our forces while using restraint during the ongoing ceasefire.”

The strikes come just hours after Trump said negotiations with Iran were “proceeding nicely.”

    one particularly despicable sack of shit is finally with the worms.

    There’s a line of shit out the door and around the corner to take his place. If Trump did not exist, Ted Cruz would be president and nothing would be any better.

    These problems aren’t individualistic. They’re systematic. In a better world Trump would just be filling the shoes of Joan Rivers, not commanding a nuclear arsenal.

    Losing sight of the reactionary forest for one big orange tree is how we ended up with Joe Biden flubbing it for four years during the Trump interregnum

      If you’ve got haemorrhoids, it’s OK to want them gone, even if you know they’ve got underlying cause. Likewise, you can do both: see the systemic problems that enabled Trump, and still be happy to see the motherfucker meet his timely demise.

        You’re just pointing to one orange bump and praying it goes away
