That’s a pretty excellent dad joke. Might have to steal that one.

No coincidence that the Mad King chose to sow mayhem during Ramadan. The cruelty is the point.

This War in Iran is Israel fault. All the idiotic Democrats that bend the knee to Taco. You can kiss off. Hmm it would be Chuck and Hakeem. πŸ˜’πŸ’”πŸ‘‡πŸ»

Love your dad joke this week. So worried about this war he has started with Netanyahu, all to distract from the Trump-Epstein scandal and his economic failures.

NO criticism of Iran coming from our Reich is justified. Everything t accuses Iran of goes DOUBLE for the US and Israel. Hang in there, Iran.

Thanks for all of your great great reporting this week, Qasim. (And I absolutely love your new photo!) Thanks for being there.

Gaslighting? I bet that is how he plans on burning down the whole White House and get to rebuild it in what he dreams it should look like. He is the despot in charge you know!

Why can’t trump be restrained after so many Constitutional and federal & state law violations!? Is our country a mafia or is any effectiveness left of our military!?

If the Epstein files had been fully released and trump removed, more deaths and danger wouldn’t be happening. We are ALL put in danger because of this atrocity & lack of accountability over and over.

He has the House and the Senate, a bunch of wimpy Democrats, and a long history of psychopathy. There has never been any honesty or morality about him and too many hapless Americans have bought into it. Shame on us.

Not shame on us! Shame on them. And shame on the centrist politicians with antique views of β€œreaching across the aisle”. I have challenged this for decades. I asked my politicians to do something effective with Fox pretend news and the buy out of media. And I never supported the orange ass wipe!

I meant that the country as a whole has, at times, been complicit in the events and decisions which have led to where we are today, not only the disaster going on in today's administration. Through the centuries the powers that be have always been too powerful and decent people like you and I have, perhaps, been too complacent when we could have been more confrontational.

I too hate what is becoming of our country and our world. All we can do now is anything we can to either turn this thing around or, united, march straight through it, calling on the determination and the the faith and the stalwartness of like minded patriots who had the right idea before it all went to hell in a handbasket.

Disagree. Why isn’t trump out now? Are WE too complacent? I’ve written to Congress numerous times, been in most of the protests, do volunteer work for refugees. And I’ve always been active. We were mostly hoodwinked into thinking the military pledge actually meant something…it doesn’t. (That they will protect the Constitution & fight all enemies, including the enemies within.Empty phrases.) And ac34-count felon in the WHβ€¦πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«. Who could have imagined this would be possible.?

I feel the same way and millions of Americans do too.

Omg, bombing Iran, and during Ramadan…that is …beyond words to condemn. We are doing evil, and we will surely pay the price.

Fits the Mad King's MO. The cruelty is the point.
