Fox News Has Already Declared Victory in Iran, While Trump is Threatening ‘Complete Destruction’

Posted by on March 7, 2026 at 1:01 pm. 0 Comments :

When George W. Bush plastered a “Mission Accomplished” banner onto the upper deck of an aircraft carrier in 2003, it actually heralded the continuation of a brutal war with Iraq that went on for another twenty years and cost the lives of thousands of American troops and Iraqi civilians.

Donald Trump appears to be intent on reprising that painful episode of American history. His war against Iran began a week ago, but he is already bragging about how savagely lethal his unprovoked, illegal, and broadly unpopular war mongering has been. Sadly, much of the lethality has been suffered by Iranian civilians, including dozens of elementary school children. Which is typical of the insensitivity of the Trump regime to the casualties of war, including American soldiers.

SEE THIS: Pete Hegseth Callously Dismisses American Fatalities as the Press ‘Wanting to Make Trump Look Bad’

So naturally Trump’s Ministry of Propaganda, Fox News, is ready to justify everything Trump does, no matter how horrible the consequences. On Saturday morning the “Curvy Couch” potatoes of Fox and Friends were discussing the Iran fiasco when co-host Rachel Campos-Duffy (wife of Trump’s Transportation Secretary, Sean Duffy) made an astonishing announcement. She delivered the glassy-eyed Fox viewers some partisan PR saying…

“Lets think about what has happened, lets list it out, So we took out the Iranian regime leader, the Ayatollah Khamenei, and then 40 of the top leaders, We degraded their military […] We’ve kind of unified them [other Middle East states] behind us so that’s kind of worked in our favor to some degree. We’ve outed fake allies, Spain, England, right? Why should we ever help them again? […] So to me, this already looks like victory. And so, I say, lets declare victory very quickly,”

Glory hallelujah! It’s all over and everybody can go home. After all, “we took out” the Ayatollah, who is likely to be replaced by his even more radical son. And we did the dirty work of “degrading” Iran for the other regional countries who were already opposed to them. And we simultaneously alienated some of our closest and most enduring allies. So…Mission Accomplished?

It’s not clear whether Fox News consulted with Trump prior to initiating this celebration. Had they done so, they might have learned that he isn’t really on board. In fact, while the Fox Friends were gushing, Trump posted on Truth Social that he was still deeply involved in his battle against “Iran, which is being beat to HELL.” He elaborated saying that “Today Iran will be hit very hard! Under serious consideration for complete destruction and certain death.” Which doesn’t sound much like a declaration of victory.

What’s more, Trump posted a another comment saying that “We have a virtually unlimited supply of…Munitions…however, we have also increased Orders.” So he’s increasing our supply of munitions from unlimited to…ultra unlimited? Never mind that Trump and the GOP say we can’t afford healthcare, or education, or housing, or any initiatives that might lower the cost of living for Americans here at home.

Meanwhile, Trump also took time to clarify why he is really so obsessed with his military misadventures around the world. During an event marking the launch of his cartoon-inspired “Shield of the Americas,” he inadvertently let it slip that the only things he cares about are money and oil…

Trump says that "Cuba is at the end of line. They have no money. They have no oil." He's admitting that his foreign misadventures ( Venezuela, Iran) are all about money and oil.So it makes sense that he's enriching himself by holding this summit at his Trump National Doral Miami golf resort.

Knowing that, we now have the criteria for determining when his mission is actually accomplished. Although most people who have been paying attention already know. And it has nothing to do with Iran…

CORRECTION: Trump's Department of War spelled "Epstein" wrong.This is the real reason that Trump started a war with Iran. Also, he needed to justify renaming the Department of Defense.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-28T18:13:19.098Z

UPDATE: Now Trump also says that we have already won the war. In a post on Truth Social he claims that he rejected help from British Prime Minister Starmer saying that “We don’t need people that join Wars after we’ve already won!”

WHUT? Fox News ‘Democrat’ Says Trump Deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for His War Against Iran

Posted by on March 6, 2026 at 2:01 pm. 0 Comments :

For the past few months, Donald Trump has been signing off his Truth Social posts by saying “Thank you for your attention to this matter.” Setting aside the fact that he is misusing that phrase, which is usually intended to admonish lazy customer service reps, anyone who has actually been paying attention to Trump has observed his obsession with awarding himself a Nobel Peace Prize.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump

Trump’s egomaniacal fixations and malignant narcissism have naturally spread to his cult followers who glorify his every word and deed. The result has been a parade of Trump toadies seeking to regale him with all manner of honors and trophies, most of which were made up just for him. And nowhere is this more evident than on Fox News.

SEE THIS: Fox News Lunacy: There’s ‘Universal Agreement’ on this Show for Trump to Get a Nobel Peace Prize

On Friday Fox News tied their Trump worship to his recently launched Middle East war mongering. In a segment discussing the justification for Trump going to war against Iran, they booked Julian Epstein (no, not that Epstein), a frequent guest on Fox News who fits the profile of a “Fox News Democrat” (i.e. an alleged Democrat who always bashes Democrats). Epstein wasted little time in slobbering all over Trump and declaring that…

“What I think Donald Trump is doing is, is heroic. I think if this is successful, it will be something that could qualify him once again for a Nobel Peace Prize.”

Of course. What better reason could there be to award the Nobel Peace Prize than the unprovoked military assault on a smaller country that they cavalierly accused of being an “imminent threat” with no evidence to back it up? Epstein even said that the U.S. “will be seen as liberators” in Iran. Which is chillingly reminiscent of Dick Cheney saying prior to George W. Bush attacking Iraq that “My belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators.”

This isn’t the first time that Epstein has proposed that Trump get the Nobel Peace Prize, and for the same reason. Last year when Trump bombed Iran, supposedly “obliterating” all of their nuclear capabilities, Epstein posted this tweet…

Around the same time, Epstein’s proposal was taken up by Republicans in Congress. Sen. Bernie Moreno introduced a resolution for the Senate to formally nominate Trump for the Nobel. Moreno said that Trump deserved it because he had “just pulled off…peace in the Middle East with Iran’s nuclear arsenal decimated.” And also because of “his historic brokerage of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran.” An agreement that Trump appears to have obliterated, if it ever actually existed.

The manic compulsion by Epstein, Moreno, and Fox News to pay tribute to Trump is further proof that Trump is not the head of a political party. He is the Dear Leader of a pseudo-religious cult. And his disciples are devoted to exalting this modern day “Prince of Peace” at all times. What else should be expected for the man who appointed himself the Chairman of the “Board of Peace” that he created?

Trump FREAKS OUT Over All the Bad News Dragging Him (and America) Down: Iran, Epstein, and More

Posted by on March 5, 2026 at 2:22 pm. 0 Comments :

It has only been a little over one year since Donald Trump reoccupied the White House, and already he is exhibiting dangerously insane behavior that far exceeds anything he unleashed in his first term. He has bombed eight foreign countries, removing the leaders of two of them. He has imposed inflationary tariffs that have raised the cost of living for all Americans. He has sent his StormTrumpers into U.S. cities to terrorize their citizens.

Donald Trump

Never let it be said that Donald Trump doesn’t deal aggressively with the adversity that challenges every leader. In fact, Trump deals with it so aggressively that he risks suffering a massive neurological disorder. In the past this has resulted in hostile hissy fits and flying ketchup bottles. His psychological diagnoses could fill a textbook.

SEE THIS: Trump Reveals His OCD (Obama Compulsive Disorder) Played a Role in Launching a War Against Iran

In his most recent episodes Trump may be suffering from a mental impairment known as Intermittent Explosive Disorder. So, yes, brains exploding are a real thing. According to the Mayo Clinic…

“Intermittent explosive disorder involves repeated, sudden bouts of impulsive, aggressive, violent behavior or angry verbal outbursts. The reactions are too extreme for the situation. Road rage, domestic abuse, throwing or breaking objects, or other temper tantrums may be symptoms of intermittent explosive disorder.”

Sound familiar? On Thursday morning Trump was especially perturbed. So he took to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, to disgorge some of his uncontrollably escalating angst. However, he seemed to be unable to drum up anything but old grievances. So he used them to assuage his anxieties. For instance, Trump posted a link to an article that’s a month old bragging that…

Trump Pardoned 5 Former NFL Stars
The NFL players that Trump pardoned were convicted of various crimes ranging from perjury to drug trafficking. Which is more proof of his perverse commitment to law and order, wherein it never applies to the elite, the wealthy, or his political comrades.

Then there was Trump’s post linking another nearly month old article celebrating that a banner with his face on it was draped across the facade of the Justice Department headquarters…

U.S. Justice Department hangs banner of Donald Trump at headquarters
Trump must be so proud that he is explicitly admitting to erasing the independence that has traditionally separated the Justice Department and the White House. The DoJ under Trump acts as his personal legal defense firm.

Then there was Trump’s pride in boosting the use of coal with another aged article link…

Trump Honored on Behalf of Coal Miners as ‘Undisputed Champion of Beautiful, Clean Coal’
This article announced that Trump was given an award by the coal lobby for his efforts advancing black lung disease, accelerating Climate Change, fouling the planet, and making all of it’s inhabitants sicker.

Then there was Trump’s link to an article that was a little more timely. Just a week ago…

Mortgage Rates Fall to Lowest Level Since 2022
Trump is boasting that he brought mortgage rates down from 6.09% to 6.01%. But as of March 5, 30-year fixed mortgage rates for home buying have gone back up to about 6.125% nationally.

Finally, Trump posted a comment urging his MAGA GOP sycophants in Congress to pass a voter suppression bill…

Clearly Trump is obsessed with trying to deflect the American people from all of the harm that he is currently imposing on the nation, and the world. And he is likely worried in particular about the dismal prospects for him the GOP in the upcoming midterm elections. So he is digging back in time for distractions. But even his distractions are examples of his own flagrantly harmful agenda. So he can’t blame anyone else for his problems. Although he will anyway. Just ask Kristi Noem, who he just fired as Secretary of Homeland Security.

If Trump thinks these tactics will make people forget his unsavory relationship with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, or his war mongering in Iran, or his economic fiascos, or his assaults on peaceful protesters and free speech, or his persecution of journalists and the media, or his narcissistic renaming of everything for himself, or egomaniacal authoritarian aspirations, he is even sicker than we imagined. Which is really saying something.

UPDATE: Trump followed up the posts above on Friday with 13 more posts linking to stories from last month, including 8 (EIGHT!) separate posts complaining about his dinner with Bill Maher. So nah, Trump isn’t scared and triggered to the point of insanity at all, is he?

Trump Reveals His OCD (Obama Compulsive Disorder) Played a Role in Launching a War Against Iran

Posted by on March 2, 2026 at 2:19 pm. 3 Comments :

Among the most prominent and recognizable character flaws of Donald Trump is the notorious tenderness of his fragile feelings. His emotional stability has long been observed by psychiatric professionals who have written books about it, such as “The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 37 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President.”

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Barack Obama, Donald Trump

These flaws have never been more apparent than in Trump’s current declaration of war against Iran. It’s a war of choice for which he failed to get the constitutionally required consent of Congress, and for which he has conspicuously avoided providing any rational justification to the American people. To the contrary, he has offered up some weak and factually baseless assertations of Iran posing an “imminent threat.”

But that’s not all. Trump also suggested that he was motivated by a bizarre personal vengeance for what he believes were attempts by Iran to interfere with the 2020 presidential election. For the record, the only evidence to support that claim points to Iran and Russia interfering to help, not harm, Trump’s electoral prospects.

SEE THIS: Trump Just Posted the Real Reason that He Started a War with Iran, and It’s Truly Insane

On Monday morning Trump added another conspiracy to the theoretical stew. During a press conference that he held ostensibly to give the American people his reasons for starting another war in the Middle East, Trump dropped this bombshell…

“I was very proud to have knocked out the Iran nuclear deal by president Barack Hussein Obama. That was a horrible, horrible, dangerous document. They would have had nuclear weapons three years ago. And they would have used them.”

So now Trump’s motivation can be simply described as Obama Envy. Or perhaps OCD (Obama Compulsive Disorder). It’s an acute malady that Trump has been suffering from for years.

Trump’s fixation on blaming Obama for everything is nothing new. And it’s always ridiculous in the extreme. However, in this matter he goes totally off the charts. What Trump is saying that he is proud of is that he tore up an agreement that the Obama administration had signed with Iran to end their nuclear aspirations. Iran was keeping in complete compliance with the agreement according to the independent International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). That is, until Trump ditched it.

Then Trump, the alleged author of “The Art of the Deal,” failed to make another deal, resulting in his decision to call out the Air Force to begin the bombing missions that have already killed hundreds of innocent Iranians and lost three American fighter jets.

Trump’s claim that Iran “would have had nuclear weapons three years ago. And they would have used them,” is a complete fabrication from his severely impaired cartoon brain. And it’s remarkable that anyone would take his babbling seriously, considering he’s the same guy who repeatedly – and incorrectly – predicted that Obama was going to start a war with Iran.

ACCORDING TO TRUMP: He predicted that President Obama would start a war with Iran…? To show how tough he is.? To get elected.? Because he couldn't negotiate.FOR THE RECORD: Obama never started a war with Iran. Instead, he got Iran to agree to end their nuclear weapons programs.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-03-02T20:13:37.012Z

The only truth in these comments by Trump is that they expose his manic and relentless preoccupation with Obama. It’s fair to assume that this played a part in his wartime decision making. Along with his need to deflect from his unsavory relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, and his hopes of juicing his historically abysmal polls, and perhaps as a predicate for his interfering with the upcoming midterm elections.

The one thing we can be certain of, is that it has nothing to do with any realistic threat from Iran. And a majority of the American people oppose his war mongering: “Overall, 59% of Americans disapprove of the initial decision to strike Iran, with 41% approving.” In short, Trump is by far the more imminent threat to America.

Trump’s Ego Takes Priority Over National Security in an Iran Team Meeting Photo that He Tweeted

Posted by on March 1, 2026 at 1:10 pm. 0 Comments :

Less than 48 hours after Donald Trump launched the United States into a new war in the Middle East, something he vowed not to do when he was running to reoccupy the White House, there is nothing but chaos and turmoil resulting from his reckless, illegal, and utterly unjustified act of war against Iran. It was a decision that was so profoundly lacking in purpose that even Trump was opposed to it (See the SNL video below).

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump WTF

In the after math of Trump’s warmongering adventurism, he sought to engage in some of his typical chest-thumping, self-exaltation. It isn’t enough for a malignant narcissist like Trump to strut around making bogus claims about how magnificent he thinks he is. He must also manufacture PR to exaggerate the details of his alleged accomplishments.

SEE THIS: Trump Just Posted the Real Reason that He Started a War with Iran, and It’s Truly Insane

And so it is with regard to Trump’s war on Iran. In an attempt to portray himself as engaged and actively monitoring the U.S. mission that Trump’s Department of “War” calls “Epic Fury” (AKA “Epstein Fury“ as it serves as a deflection from Trump’s exploits with the notorious child sex trafficker), Trump’s White House tweeted a photo of him with his ersatz National Security team looking serious as they watched the progress of American troops deploying to Iran.

While the intent of this tweet was to cast Trump in the glow of a military hero, it actually revealed something much worse…

Trump's White House posted this photo of himself monitoring his attack on Iran – from Mar-a-Lago in an insecure room with curtain walls.Because he doesn't give a f**k about national security. A competent president would only hold this meeting in the WH Situation Room or a SCIF.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-03-01T12:14:43.445Z

We can see in this photo that Trump didn’t think that it was necessary to return to the White House as he embarked on his wartime gaming. Rather, he remained at his luxurious Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach Florida, to playact as Commander-in-Chief. We can also see that he is in a room with curtains for walls, with all of the electronic devices exposed. This is a serious breach of security protocols.

This meeting ought to have taken place in the White House Situation room, or at least some other Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) that is designed to prevent unauthorized access, eavesdropping, and electronic surveillance. But those are inconveniences that Trump can’t be bothered with when he’s trying to pump up his grossly faltering public image. Never mind the potential for leaking confidential plans and analyses.

What’s more, Trump is bragging about his success in terminating the Ayatollah Khamenei, But that is a double-edged sword. Yes, Khamenei was a brutal tyrant and a sponsor of terrorism that the world is well rid of. But the assassination of foreign leaders is a violation of international law and specifically prohibited under the United Nations Charter. So Trump has not only broken the law (again), he is setting a precedent for offing heads of state that he may come to personally regret.

Further fluffing his supposed achievements, Trump is now saying that Iranian leaders “want to talk.” But Iran’s Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, Ali Larijani, the man expected to replace Khamenei, is vowing retribution against the “shameless Americans.” Which doesn’t sound much like talking.

For some perspective on Trump’s views regarding starting a war with Iran, see this clip from Saturday Night Live where Colin Jost catches the extreme hypocrisy of Trump in his own own words…

Trump Just Posted the Real Reason that He Started a War with Iran, and It’s Truly Insane

Posted by on February 28, 2026 at 2:03 pm. 1 Comments :

When Donald Trump was running to reoccupy the White House in 2024, he made his promise not to start any new wars a key component of his campaign. He folded it into his otherwise vacant sloganeering to put “America First.” Which, by the way, was a slogan that he stole from early 20th century American fascists.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump

Undeterred by his own campaign pledge, Trump has now started a new war with Iran. He launched his war without seeking the consent of Congress, which he is required to do under Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 of the Constitution. You know, that legal thingy that Trump prefers to ignore. He also failed to provide any rational justification for the military action, other than a dubious claim of “imminent threat” for which he offered no factual basis. Not that he ever cared about facts for anything.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Truth Social is Littered with Loathsome Lies – Now Including a Fake JFK Jr

After already deploying airstrikes on Iranian targets, Trump posted a staged video on his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, wherein he sought to explain why he broke the law and declared war on Iran. However, his explanation was a far cry from anything that could be described as coherent, or reasonable. Rather, it was an eight minute long rant about Iran being evil and his gloriousness in massacring a lot of innocent Iranians to achieve his tyrannical ends.

It wasn’t until many hours later that he provided what appears to be his real motivation for the warmongering. It came in another Truth Social posting that linked to an article in the far right Internet rag, “Just the News,” with the headline “Iran tried to interfere in 2020, 2024 elections to stop Trump, and now faces renewed war with United States.”

After bombing Iran without any justification or explanation to the American people – or the world – Trump posts this lie as his reason for doing it…

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-02-28T17:31:42.320Z

The actual article never presented a single fact that validated the headline. It was just a tediously long collection of innuendos and allegations by Trump flunkies. However, Trump posting this suggests that the actual reason that he went to war with Iran was because he is holding a grudge over what he believes was Iran’s attempts to harm his presidential prospects.

That would be in keeping with Trump’s still smoldering outrage over the 2020 election that he continues to lie was “rigged and stolen” from him by nefarious Democrats and their comrades in the fake news. Ever since he returned to power he has been persecuting those who he claims were responsible for his humiliating loss. Now he’s adding Iran to the cabal of conspirators who, in his pathological paranoia, he thinks were plotting against him. And of course, he has no evidence to support any of this nonsense.

Accusing Iran of interfering with the 2020 election (and 2024 too) is typical Trump. And it is no stretch to assume that he would take revenge on them if given the opportunity. At the same time, he has persistently excused Russia and his pal Vladimir Putin for actually interfering with those elections with documented proof of it.

Which just goes to show that Trump doesn’t need trivialities like proof, or rationality, or even sanity, to embrace the conspiracy theories that serve his interests. And if his interest is vengeance, then he will find a way to justify it to himself.

Although, there could be an entirely different reason for Trump starting this war with Iran. It could be another deflection on his part from his other scandals. For instance, his dreadful economy that is causing millions of Americans to suffer, and his unsavory relationship with child sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein. Is Trump just employing the old “wag the dog” tactic?

CORRECTION: Trump's Department of War spelled "Epstein" wrong.This is the real reason that Trump started a war with Iran. Also, he needed to justify renaming the Department of Defense.

Dementia J. Trump Thanks Iran for Canceling 800 Hangings that His Warped Imagination Invented

Posted by on January 16, 2026 at 1:32 pm. NO Comments :

From his earliest days in the political sphere, Donald Trump has displayed a disturbing affection for the world’s most brutal tyrants. His doe-eyed infatuation for Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is both nauseating and treasonous. And he feels compelled to frequently remind everyone that he has great relationships with Putin, as well as China’s Xi Jinping, and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump, QAnon, Dictator

Now we can add Iran to the list of totalitarian despots that Trump admires and seeks to emulate. Particularly with regard to their persistence in power. This week Trump expressed his belief that he ought to be made America’s president-for-life because he’s just so damn good at everything.

SEE THIS: Trump Whines That He Has ‘Accomplished So Much’ That ‘We Shouldn’t Even Have An Election’

Trump’s remarks concerning Iran were first posted to his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social, on Friday morning. He gushed that…

“I greatly respect the fact that all scheduled hangings, which were to take place yesterday (Over 800 of them), have been cancelled by the leadership of Iran. Thank you! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”

Well, isn’t that sweet? Trump is thanking Iran for not going forward with mass executions. Never mind that there is no evidence that any such executions were scheduled, or would even be possible to carry out in a single day. And set aside the fact that Iran still incarcerates thousands of political prisoners whose eventual fate may be death by hanging. Trump believes that the murderous mullahs of Iran deserve his high praise.

Trump is thrilled with his manufactured account of 800 potential hangings. However, long time Trump observers know that Trump pulled that number out of his assumptions based on whatever he wants to believe at the moment. Which is the same place that he gets his numbers for everything from immigrant crimes, to tariff receipts, to cost of living reductions, to windmill bird massacres, to scores on his unusually repetitive cognitive tests.

Those assumptions are what form the basis for all of Trump’s critical decisions. For example, he was asked Friday about who convinced him not to bomb Iran after promising to come to the rescue of Iranian protesters who are being slaughtered in the streets. While failing to fulfill that promise, he replied that…

“Nobody convinced me — I convinced myself. You had, yesterday, scheduled, over 800 hangings. They didn’t hang anyone. They cancelled the hangings. That had a big impact.”

Trump: I convinced myself not to strike Iran

— FactPost (@factpostnews.bsky.social) 2026-01-16T18:33:13.403380161Z

So Trump assured everyone that he consults only with himself on the big issues that face the nation, including the prospects of war. Which is a frighteningly common occurrence with Trump who recently said that the only checks on his power are “My own morality. My own mind.” His advice to himself on this occasion was to double down on his phony 800 hangings malarkey. And since Iran supposedly canceled the hangings, it is now appropriate to thank them and to refrain from assisting the protesters who they are still killing.

Meanwhile, Trump is employing in Minnesota what he has learned from Iran about dealing with protesters. Which is to overwhelm them with military force, and kill them if necessary, in order to restore compliance with Dear Leader’s autocratic reign. Trump is, if nothing else, a quick study in authoritarian tactics and the oppression of any and all dissent.

Unfortunately for Trump, the American people are not going to subjugate themselves to his imperious domination. We are a nation born of freedom, and raised on liberty. And those principles are firmly ingrained in our culture and our laws. In the end, Trump and his MAGA-tists will fail, and will be held accountable for their crimes. That is the American way.

Trump Threatens to Start a War with Iran Because They’re Doing What He Wants to Do In the U.S.

Posted by on January 2, 2026 at 1:35 pm. NO Comments :

The madness of Donald Trump is exhibiting ever more troubling signs of serious harm for America and the world. His aspirations of authoritarian control of the nation are being manifested in his words and deeds that demonstrate his disrespect for the law and the principles of freedom and liberty that are enshrined in the Constitution.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Donald Trump, QAnon, Dictator

In a late night 3:00 AM comment posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, Trump issued a direct threat to Iran where citizens are currently protesting the extremist theological regime that has been in power there since the last time that the United States tried to interfere with their internal domestic affairs. More recently, Trump ordered a totally impotent assault on Iran in an attempt to neutralize its nuclear capabilities.

SEE THIS: The Trump Regime’s Post-Iran Bombing Propaganda Party is a Sputtering Dud

This morning Trump unleashed an online outburst aimed at Iran after he heard that they were shooting protesters. Because rage-posting on social media is how America announces its foreign policy in the Era of Trump. He seethed that…

“If Iran shots (sic) and violently kills peaceful protesters, which is their custom, the United States of America will come to their rescue. We are locked and loaded and ready to go. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J.TRUMP”

So Trump is threatening ANOTHER war? He says he will commit U.S. military forces to "rescue" protesters in Iran.But he won't even provide weapons or other aid to Ukraine where his pall Putin is slaughtering thousands of civilians.Also, he wanted to shoot peaceful protesters in the U.S.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2026-01-02T09:29:50.412Z

REALLY? Trump is threatening to start yet another war following his misadventures with Venezuela, Syria, Nigeria, and Yemen. Not to mention his threats to invade and/or annex Mexico, Panama, Canada, and Greenland. Or his deploying troops into American cities. And he fancies himself a candidate for a Nobel Peace prize?

Now Trump says he will commit U.S. military forces to “rescue” the protesters in Iran. He is feigning concern for those civilians who are the victims of the brutal regime. Which is peculiar because Vladimir Putin is doing much more harm to the civilians in Ukraine, but Trump has balked at providing them – a long time ally – with the weapons, intelligence, and other aid to help them to resist Trump’s pal Putin, who is slaughtering thousands of non-combatant men, women, and children, which is Russia’s custom.

To be clear, Trump isn’t promising to give financial support to the Iranian protesters, or training, or to help to organize a coalition of allies. Nope. Trump is promising to put American lives on the line. That’s what “locked and loaded and ready to go” means. So whose sons and daughters will be deployed to Iran? Certainly not Trump’s. As for Trump himself, he’s a five-time draft dodger.

What’s more, the offense by Iran that has Trump so riled up is that the Iranian leaders are allegedly shooting peaceful protesters. Which makes this a good time to remind everyone of what Trump did during his first occupation of the white House when he asked his military advisors why they couldn’t just “shoot the protesters” in a park across the street from the White House. This was disclosed by Trump’s own Defense Secretary, Mark Esper, to Norah O’Donnell on CBS News’ 60 Minutes…

O’Donnell: What specifically was he suggesting that the U.S. military should do to these protesters?
Esper: He says, “Can’t you just shoot them? Just shoot them in the legs or something.” And he’s suggesting that that’s what we should do, that we should bring in the troops and shoot the protesters.

So to summarize, Trump wants to deploy American troops into Iran to stop them from doing to protesters there what he wants to do to American protesters. And he couldn’t care less about what Putin is doing top civilians in Ukraine. Do we need any further evidence of the madness of Donald Trump?

FIRE EVERYONE! Trump Rages Over Accurate Reporting of Intelligence Regarding His Iran Bombing

Posted by on June 26, 2025 at 2:07 pm. NO Comments :

In the wake of the bombing mission that Donald Trump ordered allegedly to rid Iran of nuclear weapons capabilities, the media had the audacity to do their job and report on what was known about the mission and its results. That, of course, drove Trump crazy, because the last thing he ever wants is for the truth about his often reckless escapades being exposed to the light of day.

Donald Trump

In Trump World it is never permitted to do or say anything critical of Dear Leader. His every word is to be regarded as if gospel, and every act must be glorified with the enthusiasm of an adoring apostle. That’s evident in the worshipful testimony delivered by his devoted propaganda purveyors.

On Thursday Trump underwent a severe mental breakdown triggered by the press that he hates and regularly maligns as “the enemy of the people.” In a barrage of rancid posts to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, Trump unleashed a series of demands that journalists he doesn’t like be fired. He seems to think that he’s still on “The Apprentice” and can axe people from his program at will.

The primary target of Trump’s wrath was CNN’s Pentagon correspondent, Natasha Bertrand. Trump began his harangue by lashing out at her on Wednesday saying that…

“Natasha Bertrand should be FIRED from CNN! I watched her for three days doing Fake News. She should be IMMEDIATELY reprimanded, and then thrown out ‘like a dog.'” [And that] “She lied on the Laptop from Hell Story, and now she lied on the Nuclear Sites Story, attempting to destroy our Patriot Pilots by making them look bad…She should not be allowed to work at Fake News CNN….FIRE NATASHA!”

First of all, does anyone really believe that Trump watched CNN for three days? Setting that aside, Trump’s claim that she lied is…well, a lie. She reported what she was told by Trump’s own Defense Department Intelligence Agency. Trump even later admitted that. Although he complained that the DIA assessment was preliminary. Which Bertrand reported saying that “The analysis of the damage to the sites and the impact of the strikes on Iran’s nuclear ambitions is ongoing, and could change as more intelligence becomes available.”

Trump tried to spin this story as an attack on the pilots who flew the mission to Iran. Which is pure bullpucky. He also dredged up a five year old complaint about Hunter Biden’s laptop, which was also correctly reported by Bertrand. Then on Thursday, Trump continued his tantrum with several posts demanding the termination of many more reporters. He whined that…

“Rumor is that the Failing New York Times and Fake News CNN will be firing the reporters who made up the FAKE stories on the Iran Nuclear sites because they got it so wrong. Lets see what happens?”

And that…

“One of the greatest, most professional, and most ‘confirming’ News Conferences I have ever seen! The Fake News should fire everyone involved in this Witch Hunt, and apologize to our great warriors, and everyone else!”

And that…

“FAKE NEWS REPORTERS FROM CNN & THE NEW YORK TIMES SHOULD BE FIRED, IMMEDIATELY!!! BAD PEOPLE WITH EVIL INTENTIONS!!!”

And in a major escalation of his insanity, with zero evidence, Trump fumed that…

“The Democrats are the ones who leaked the information on the PERFECT FLIGHT to the Nuclear Sites in Iran. They should be prosecuted!“

Former Fox News host Pete Hegseth, who is currently playacting as Trump’s Secretary of Defense, held a press scolding Thursday morning, wherein he whined about the media in a manner that would embarrass an eight year old. During that reality TV-style melodrama, Hegseth chastised his former Fox News colleague, Jennifer Griffin, who wasn’t havin’ his asininity. And he demonstrated his pitiful lack of historical knowledge of American warfare…

This is a great example of how everything in Trump world dials up the hyperbole to preposterous levels, where whatever Trump does is the BESTEST in the history of humanity!Hegseth apparently never heard of D-Day, or Hiroshima, or Desert Storm, or getting Osama bin Laden.

What Trump and his minions are making abundantly clear is that they do not want any credible journalism to be practiced in this country. They regard news reporting as unpatriotic if it isn’t gushing with praise for Trump. But nothing is more patriotic than reporters who speak truth to power.

Unfortunately, Trump’s hatred of the Constitution’s First Amendment is all too apparent in his attempts to get journalists fired when they are less than reverential supplicants to His MAGA-STY. Consequently, this country needs bold journalists now more than ever.

Trump Lashes Out at Democratic Women of Color as ‘Stupid’ Because They Dare to Defy Dear Leader

Posted by on June 24, 2025 at 1:54 pm. 1 Comments :

In the aftermath of Donald Trump’s bombing of Iran, there has been little to justify what was a dubiously sourced mission in the first place. His own Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, testified before Congress that there was no evidence that Iran was developing nuclear weapons. But Trump humiliated her and the broader intelligence community by declaring that they were all wrong.

Donald Trump, MAGA

You have to wonder where Trump was getting his information about Iran if it wasn’t from the intel professionals that worked for him. Nevertheless, he pulled out all the stops to glorify himself and his faulty decision making by dispatching the minions of his regime to the media in a futile effort to deceive the American people.

SEE THIS: The Trump Regime’s Post-Iran Bombing Propaganda Party is a Sputtering Dud

Trump himself was the Liar-in-Chief as he unloaded preposterous defenses of his military adventurism. For instance he falsely declared that Iran’s nuclear facilities were “obliterated” before there was any credible damage assessment. And he told reporters that the ceasefire between Israel and Iran was complete and would “go forever.” It didn’t last but a few hours.

Trump throws a tantrum because Israel and Iran aren't obeying his demands to end their decades long hostilities. He whines: "they don't know what the fuck they're doing."Trump said just yesterday that the ceasefire would "go forever." Which proves that it's Trump who doesn't know what he's doing.

On Tuesday morning Trump threw another infantile temper tantrum aimed at a trio of his sworn archenemies who just happen to all be Democratic women of color. The comment that he posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, maligned Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Jasmine Crockett, and Ilhan Omar, with puerile insults to their intelligence. Trump raged that…

“Stupid AOC, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, one of the ‘dumbest’ people in Congress, is now calling for my Impeachment, despite the fact that the Crooked and Corrupt Democrats have already done that twice before.”

Demeaning women of color as “stupid” is a regular part of Trump’s racist rhetoric. However, AOC is only calling for Trump to be impeached because he initiated a war without the consent of Congress as required by the Constitution. And his having been impeached twice before seems like a peculiar thing to remind everyone about in the wake of his new impeachable offenses. But Trump was only just getting started. He continued…

“When we examine [AOC’s] Test Scores, we will find out that she is NOT qualified for office but, nevertheless, far more qualified than [Jasmine] Crockett, who is a seriously Low IQ individual, or Ilhan Omar, who does nothing but complain about our Country. […] How dare ‘The Mouse’ tells us how to run the United States of America!”

Trump doesn’t mention what test scores he’s referring to. But he might want to stop threatening the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania to prevent them from releasing his grades. Let’s have some of that transparency that he likes to yammer about.

Although Trump did use this part of his comment to add Crockett and Omar to his hate post. It is no coincidence that all of his targets are women of color. He has exhibited this rancid racism innumerable times before. Often with journalists such as Yamiche Alcindor, Abby Phillip, and April Ryan. And let’s not forget that he said the same things about Kamala Harris. They just all happen to be stupid women in his eyes. Then he went further saying that…

“AOC should be forced to take the Cognitive Test that I just completed at Walter Reed Medical Center, as part of my Physical. As the Doctor in charge said, ‘President Trump ACED it,’ meaning, I got every answer right.”

Trump keeps repeating this lie about having “aced” a cognitive test. It was actually just a test to ascertain any early signs cognitive illness, wherein he was asked to perform simple functions such as counting backwards and identifying an elephant. The fact that he’s so proud of having succeeded in that is itself cause to worry about his mental acuity.

Trump closed with a challenge to “go ahead and try Impeaching me, again, MAKE MY DAY!” That’s a challenge that Democrats must accept. The case against him is extraordinarily strong.

Unfortunately, that doesn’t mean that Republicans in the Senate will vote in accordance with the law and the Constitution. They still seem to be too enrapt in the cult sway of Trumpism. But the effort is necessary regardless. If only to insure that there is a historical record of Trump’s malfeasance in office.
