Trump just cancelled a classified House briefing on the Iran strikes with zero explanation.
The real reason?
He claims he destroyed “all nuclear facilities and capability;” his team knows they can’t back up his bluster and BS.

It’s not enough for Stephen Miller to orchestrate Trump’s deportation agenda.
Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target and round up immigrants.
He’s cashing in on his own cruelty.

This is ridiculous. The only reason America "had" to bomb Iran is because Trump torpedoed the diplomatic strategy of his predecessor. The alleged necessity of the war has been created by the despot currently waging it!

We’re in another Middle East war. I’m reflecting on the fact that it’s easy to start a war, difficult to end it. There’s often war optimism, so it’s unlikely to end with bomb strikes today. Lastly, I’m troubled that Trump’s national security team is who we have running this war.
