11·26 days agoIt’s good that a “true believer” stepped down and I’m all for it. His reason for doing so isn’t super noble though. MAGA Classic isn’t a whole lot better than New MAGA. They really just have different awful priorities. And both parties in a ‘wrong kind of asshole’ fight are still assholes.
I think this says more about how universal opposition to the war is than anything particularly good about Kent.
61·26 days agoHonestly looks kinda cool. I’ll give it a shot.
You can read the whole resignation letter here. You’ll find the catch in there!
We’re expected to believe Graham was speaking in metric?? Fake news!
3·1 month agoFoid is short for ‘female humanoid,’ insinuating that women are non- or sub-human.

I’m not saying they were negotiating in good faith. Personally, I don’t think they were. But they’re still called ‘negotiations’ because they were taking to each other. That talking preceded the attacks. There have been articles for days about the talks not going anywhere.
It says the attacks came after (“followed”) stalled negotiations. They did.
Almost the entire article is direct quotes.
Iran confirms:
Iranian state media announced early on Sunday that Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed. “To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return,” the news agency said. He died after U.S. and Israeli military strikes on Iran on Saturday.
Edit: Also a whole bunch of his family.
The deaths of the daughter, son-in-law and grandson of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, were confirmed, according to Iran’s semiofficial Fars News Agency on Sunday morning in Iran. One of his daughters-in-law was also killed, the news agency said.
You’re completely right. But if Russia’s able to prop up a failing, increasingly repressive regime in Iran for years, it will be such a nightmare for Iranians. Malevolent fucks.
The deaths of the daughter, son-in-law and grandson of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, were confirmed, according to Iran’s semiofficial Fars News Agency on Sunday morning in Iran. One of his daughters-in-law was also killed, the news agency said.
Russia caused and prolonged a lot of suffering in Syria.
Israel’s military spokesman said Israeli forces had killed several top Iranian defense officials this morning. They included Iran’s defense minister, Gen. Aziz Nasirzadeh; the head of the Revolutionary Guards Corps, Gen. Mohammad Pakpour; and a top adviser to Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Shamkhani. The spokesman, Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin, said nothing about Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
A central goal of the first joint wave of strikes in Iran was to hit as many leaders as possible, according to three Israeli security officials familiar with the operations.
The officials said that, similar to the previous strikes in June last year, planners took into account that they would manage to achieve at least some degree of surprise. They calculated that if they wanted to kill senior Iranian officials, they had to try and hit them in the first round of strikes. Afterward, it is highly likely that more precautions would be taken to protect the leadership.
Videos verified by The New York Times show strikes in an area of Tehran that houses the presidential palace and Iran’s National Security Council, among other important government buildings. Another video shows a strike near Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence.
Iran’s state television announces that Iran’s armed forces were getting ready to retaliate against Israel.
The Israeli military said it had detected ballistic missiles launched from Iran at the country — the first wave of Iranian retaliation in response to the U.S.-Israeli attacks earlier today.
True, but this feels different.
In a video posted on Truth Social, Trump has told the Islamic Revolutionary Guard to lay down their arms, saying “You will be treated fairly with total immunity or you will face certain death.”
Trump has accused Iran of developing long range missiles that threaten the US and others.
He said the US will “raze their missile industry to the ground” and “annihilate their navy”.
The websites of several Iranian news agencies are down, including the official state media outlet IRNA, which said it was hacked.
Mobile phone services have been cut in Iran after Israeli attack, according to a report from Associated Press.
A Tehran resident and local journalist, said landlines in Tehran were down and only mobile phones had sporadic reception.
President Trump confirms the U.S. military has begun “major combat operations” in Iran. He posted an eight-minute-long video on Truth Social.
Several and everyone hates them.
