□ [“Trump Suggests Regime Change – 'Make Iran Great Again'"]

I assume we're pumping that message into Iran everywhere we can.  Not sure what coverage there will be.  We control the skies but they're probably not going to release trustworthy footage for a while.  Pakistan is probably worried, they're condemning the attacks just a few days after nominating Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize.  I guess they thought it worked with Obama so why not try it again.

Russian President Medvedev has also complained about this.  I guess he doesn't realize that Trump obeys Russia, at least according to leftists.  But maybe it's the English translation but his statement came off as very meaningless.  And some claims, Iranians are rallying around the mullahs and the rest of the world is offering Iran more nukes, just seems silly.

So far Iran's reaction seems to be minimal.  They're planning to shut down the Strait of Hormuz which would affect shipping out oil.  Otherwise I've only seen two reports of their sycophants attacking anybody in response to this.  There was a suicide bomber at an orthodox church in Damascus and, closer to home, someone drove a truck into a church in Michigan.  He tried to shoot some people and was killed.  Not sure if that actually qualifies as "suicide bomber."  Maybe he just couldn't find explosives quickly enough.

I would think 'that's not going to help' would be the reaction of most Muslims.  So it's a good question what they can really do in response to this.  This was why it was so important that Trump seal the borders and spend several months rooting out as many foreign operatives as possible before getting this going.  I'm sure we're not totally sealed off, especially on the internet, but to a large extent the enemy here is limited to what tools they can use against us.

□ [“Nancy Pelosi Spits Bile at Trump After He Bombs Iranian Nuclear Sites"]

That's gonna work real well.  She didn't mind when Obama and Biden bombed Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, Syria and Libya.  IIRC those latter ones went on for a loooong time with no complaints from Democrats whatsoever.  So why is this different?  The War Powers Act of 1973 gives the POTUS authority to conduct 60 days of attacks without Congressional permission.

[Note, a problem with A.I. internet.  Joe Biden entered Congress in January 1973.  The War Powers Act was passed by Congress in October 1973.  Nixon vetoed it and Congress overruled him in November.  I found all this on Wikipedia.  I kept asking the A.I. how Biden voted on the bill and it kept saying he did not vote because he was not in Congress, which is obviously false.  On my third attempt, the answer was that he co-sponsored the Act.  That would mean he had to vote for it, right?]

But Democrats are not going to get very far claiming Trump is breaking some sort of law somewhere.  At best a few of them might try to use the 'I wasn't in Congress at the time so I get to complain' excuse but they'll still have to turn against old rich Democrats to make that argument.  What kind of world is it where you have to turn against your fellow leftists if you want to attack Trump?

And that's just the tip of the iceberg when they realize they need to side with Iran against Trump.  I know at least a couple Democrats have spoken out and said Trump did the right thing, we'll see how many agree with that.  This could be interesting.  Either the party needs to unite to support Iran, they need to admit Trump's not the corrupt idiot they've been saying he was for eight years, they need to fight it out amongst each other, or they need to completely ignore it from now on.  Haven't talked about transgenders and abortion for a few days, let's bring those up again to win some support!

Then there's the point that Obama and Biden made sure to give Iran a lot of money, preferably in cash.  The left has wanted to ignore that all this time but they may be running out of options.  If the mullahs are overthrown, they aren't going to bother destroying evidence of that, so whoever takes over would have an incentive to make it public.  How hard you willing to push this, Nancy?

□ [“Zelensky Asks All Allies To Devote 0.25% of Their GDP to Finance Ukrainian War Effort"]

Are we transferring all our weed to Ukraine?  I can't think of any other way to justify this demand, or even make it in the first place.  Dude, you're going to need to send your unbeatable military over to Europe and conquer them if you want to make demands like this.  It's like he's trying to give Europe an excuse to ditch him.

Meanwhile Russia just keeps moving in that slow, meandering way that's always been a Russian trademark.  They keep finding new Russian territory and no Ukrainians bother to stop them.  Guess the land can't be worth that much if Russia can just grab it.  They're also still hitting Kiev with drones and missiles.  I hope they stop doing that before Russian troops arrive or that could get messy.

Other than giving Zelensky a lot of money to launder, what has this done in the last three years?  It's becoming very clear that everybody involved would be better off if Ukraine had just surrendered in the first place.  Except for those who helped themselves to money from the US, but you get my point.  Zelensky is showing what he really wants.

□ [“Nancy Pelosi Had Another Amazing Year on the Stock Market – Bigger Returns Than Major Hedge Funds"]

There are richer members of Congress and probably members of the uniparty who are better at making investments but Nancy is the prime example of the corruption going on at the highest levels.  Since she's not required to reveal her exact profits, it's only speculation, but she should be around $400 million by now.  And guess what she doesn't need to pay taxes on.

I have no clue how this could be fixed.  Any law to forbid such profiteering, the congressmen who write it would make sure to have loopholes.  I'm curious what is done with this money.  Are they just buying mansions and slaves or is it being spread out to fund anti-Americans?  Is the money just being moved to China?  But again, there's nothing to be done about that.  They'll find ways to ignore their own laws.

But why do the leftist peons completely ignore this?  They're ranting about how awful it is to have money and their leaders agree with that, yet the leaders keep raking in the wealth.  It's like you and me always talking about how we hate blonde women and you think my blonde girlfriend is hot.  How do they get to this mentality and stay there year after year without even noticing?
