Does Trump think this will make the war more popular? It’s just speeding up how quickly he’s wasting our taxpayer dollars. Those strikes cost hundreds of millions of dollars, *at least*. Possibly billions of dollars.
How did nobody tell him that shutting down the Strait of Hormuz would be the first thing Iran would do? How could that possibly have come as a surprise to him?
If I knew that, and you knew that, surely _someone_ in the White House knew that?

Should make future prosecutions easier.

Israel will tell him where to send US Troops and Trump will pass it onto Putin to make sure the boss is informed.

This Iran thing was supposed to be done in time for the Sunday shows, but Trump and American interests have strung together a series of fuel-related fails. Strait of Hormuz. Refueling deaths of American servicemembers.
Trump is desperate for a ‘win’ so he can exit Iran war in a high note, and will green light any attack plan that could possibly give him that cover. Not great for Americans.

It is always a good thing when the fuhrer assumes direct military command, right?

He ordered the attack on Kharg island setting it on fire, its an oil loading terminal.

1. *Liberal democracy* –
Competitive elections, rule of law, strong civil liberties, independent courts, and real checks on executive power.
2. *Flawed / weakening democracy* –
Elections still matter but institutions start eroding. Polarization rises, norms break down, corruption grows, and minority rights get chipped away.
3. *Illiberal democracy* (**you are here**) –
Elections still occur but civil liberties, press freedom, and institutional independence are significantly undermined. Leaders openly attack courts, media, and election legitimacy. The system still functions but is heavily distorted.
4. *Competitive authoritarianism* (**you are fast-approaching here**) –
Elections still exist and opposition parties technically operate, but the playing field is badly tilted. The ruling faction uses state power, propaganda, legal harassment, and institutional capture to maintain power. Opposition can still win, but it becomes increasingly difficult.
5. *Electoral authoritarianism* –
Elections occur but are largely performative. Media, courts, and election systems are controlled enough that real power change is unlikely.
6. *Full authoritarianism / dictatorship* –
Opposition is suppressed or banned, elections are meaningless or absent, and the executive rules with minimal constraints.

Mmm, the real war goal reveals itself. Control of oil infrastructure. The tears of Bessent were tears of joy for him and his buddies to put in insider stock market plays to make filthy amounts of money.
We obliterated some school girls, and are going to send more Americans to die completely unnecessarily for total maniac greed. We have so much, and it’s never going to be enough for these monsters.

America builds the most powerful military in human history and then puts this asshole in absolute control of it. Fuck MAGA and everyone stupid enough to support it for inflicting this on the world.

Wait, I thought we were mission accomplished here? Republicans, care to explain why your dear leader is a pedophile and runs up your gas prices? I’m sure you care about one of those two things.

Personally I think he’s already thinking about it but we won’t hear anything until sometime next month.
