Trump won the presidency in 2016 and 2024 thanks in no small part to campaigning against the long and draining wars of his predecessors. Now, he’s started a war of his own.

    No end date, no plan, no justification, no authorization. Every reason has been easily and quickly debunked or contradicted by his administration’s own messaging. They told Congress a week ago that there was no threat of imminent attack from Iran. Basically, “trust me bro.”

    There’s a serious problem with executive power. My only hope is that the rest of the greedy politicians will take that power back so they don’t lose theirs. Not great but a step in the right direction.

        Yeeeeah. I can’t disagree unfortunately. Shit is pretty bad over here. I hate guns but decided to join the Socialist Rifle Association and arm up just in case. We can’t trust our neighbors anymore and I don’t see a way back that doesn’t either take decades or some really shocking events that affect everyone personally. We’re really god damn stupid
