Way back in 2002, then-President George W. Bush warned that Iraq, Iran, and outlier North Korea comprised a grave threat. âStates like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world,â he warned. âBy seeking weapons of mass destruction, these regimes pose a grave and growing danger.â North Korea built a nuclear arsenal, and with it, purchased a guarantee of security. The other two countries produced no nukes, and the story has been radically different.
The U.S. invaded Iraq in March 2003. Two months later, the war was won. Except it wasnât. Despite President George W. Bushâs unforgettable May 1, 2003, âmission accomplishedâ moment when, from the deck of an aircraft carrier off the coast of San Diego, he declared âmajor combat operations in Iraq ⦠ended,â the American war there somehow never actually stopped. An insurgency was raging, U.S. bases were being mortared, and American officials feared a civil war between the countryâs formerly reigning Sunni minority and its rising Shiite majority was brewing. It became a forever war that lived up to the moniker. Last week, almost a quarter century since Bush made the case for war in Iraq, a U.S. soldier was killed in an Iranian attack on an American base there.
President Donald Trump was elected on a promise to say goodbye to all that. American-style wars of choice were going to be a thing of the past: âI will not send you to fight and die in stupid foreign wars that never end.â And yet Trumpâs America is now deeply involved in a seemingly ever-escalating and never-ending conflict with â yes! â Iraqâs neighbor,
Iran.
âUnder my leadership, the United States will commit to the ambitious goal of slashing energy and electricity prices by half at least,â Trump said at a campaign rally in North Carolina in August 2024. âWe intend to slash prices by half within 12 monthsâat a maximum 18 months.â
Trump personally "honored" four fallen soldiers at Dover Air Force Base while his administration simultaneously reclassified their deaths outside the official Iran war casualty list under the premise that a technical ceasefire meant the original conflict had ended.
Nothing that comes from this administration is factual.
why do I feel like 10,000 women just had a ptsd incident?
Why fight it....if you don't have it...everybody else wants it.
Of course, so many are lining up that you have to promise career opportunities to porn stars, hang out with the worst pedo of our times, and assault those that don't clearly see the opportunity before them.
It's literally amazing how he can contradict himself so many times in 18 seconds, and the level of stupidity that passes as insight for so many. "Your taxes are going to down"? Maybe I can put that $50 a year to work paying off my $800 electric bill this month... up 30% in a year. That's 3 years after putting in high efficiency AC units.
FWIW... I realize I'd have to push the data center not only out of town, but off the 13 state grid I'm on... but I'm OK if all of the data centers want to head West/South.
(...) said he's "honored" to go to Dover for the transfer of the remains of soldiers who were killed, and threatened a further escalation, saying "they haven't seen anything yet" and "we've been nice."
He concluded by asserting that "truly, it's the golden age of America."
Here's a supercut of Trump's latest bizarro world rants:
Yes, voter files are public records. There are almost no restrictions for access in at least 30 states (other than fees), other states have varying amounts of restrictions. The files often include voting history, addresses, and phone numbers. That's how campaigns are able to contact potential voters and also to send those text messages to respond to to have "conversations" with an AI-Bot.
