20 years of GWOT has left a sense that uncontested air power is how wars work. But it's not war. These are all launchers. It's bombardment for bombardment's sake. We're getting ready to bomb the hell out of a country, but there's no war plan, no real goals.
Breaking news: The Trump administration appears ready to launch an extended military assault on Iran, current and former U.S. officials said, as the Pentagon amasses an immense strike force in the Middle East.

Tom Malinowski argues in an op-ed for the Bulwark that, in response to AIPAC using Republican donor money to intervene in Democratic races, Dem leadership (including, presumably, the AIPAC-endorsed and backed Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer) should disavow the organization and refuse its support.

If we do end up going to war with Iran it will be impossible to explain why without sounding like the world's most racist and antisemitic crank
because KSA and Russia both benefit from the threat of war to juice oil prices

this is an absolutely infuriating angle to take in this situation. why is it on the union to find creative solutions to ownership problems, exactly? why is it on the union to save owners from themselves when it comes to sacrificing games?

After blaming a (non-existent) staffer for the Obamas-as-apes video, this is quite a remarkable statement by Leavitt.
Q: The president just said on Truth Social it would be a 'big mistake' for UK to hold over control of Diego Garcia, but the State Dept said the US supports that handover
LEAVITT: The post should be taken as administration policy. When you see it on TS, you know it's directly from President Trump.
