I mean, the US bombed Iraq in 1998 to distract from an adultery scandal. It's not exactly unprecedented.
The United States of America needs to be disarmed. Since they're not willing to do it themselves, their economy must be crippled so that they can't afford their military.

Trump hasn't even had a full year, cut the orange sack some slack.
yeah, he may very well tariff me to death (that is not a joke)
I know shit's bad. I really hope it doesn't get that bad.
I really don't think the US can survive as a single unit. It needs to split.
As a Californian can we just destroy the United States instead, it'd be more effective and longer lasting.
the US needs to die, split into rednecks KKK white trash states, and modren nations like NY/California.
those rednecks need to stop mooching off welfare and ruining the country and get fucked by their own policies
I love how they get federal welfare and then complain about California and New Yorkers while also voting to screw them over in every way possible.
they shouldn't secede, they should me kicked out
Let's not bash the Rednecks, the modern ones may be stupid but the historical ones were damned well good. Rip away the propaganda and my kin folk would probably revert to the corpo fighting union boys of old.
are we talking ACAB monshiners, or old KKK? because they were often the same people. You mean the rednecks involved in Blair Mountain battle? those are cool
Blair mountain, I'm specifically referring to Appalachian and Ozark Scots-Irish descended folks. The term Redneck got a wee bit bastardized during the 20th century, mostly due to being slapped onto every poor rural American sub culture when before it's glorification post WW2 most poor WASPs would've shanked you for the implication.
Also the reason I'm making this exception is because the very first Rednecks were an early labor movement back in Scotland, their descendants in the early to mid 1800s started to adopt the aesthetics and terminology.
I hope it is obvious when we mean rednecks we do not mean Blair mountain labour rights fighters, but the white racist trump rural base. Those were based, I did not know that that term once referred to people in Scotland.
Yeah just get annoyed when my kin get associated with white trash, I'm from California and my ancestors left around when the first Rednecks were getting going way back in the 1840s and we usually worked with the Western variant those that got the name from sunburnt necks. Just wish we had a better term that didn't denigrate a historically respectable and proud culture that happens to be in a slump.
sorry, those were indeed heroes. sorry their name got besmirched
Minor nitpick, it wasn't Iraq. It was Afghanistan and Sudan
In 1998 specifically, both. Operation Desert Fox and Operation Infinite Reach.

what a strange coincidence 😮
I wondered why Trump did the insane Venezuela thing. Now I see.
Release the unredacted Epstein files, you pedo pedo-protector.
Yeah that checks out.
We have lawyers working around the clock to review and make the ~~legally~~ required redactions to protect ~~victims~~ the abusers, and we will release the documents as soon as possible.
FTFY
Totally unrelated, I'm sure xD
Arrest bondi for contempt, and noem, Homan, miller, alito, thomas, cavanaugh, and Roberts for violations of constitutional law
Epic first episode of the 2026 season of House of Cards 💀
Sure is weird and totally not obvious that Preznit Fuckwit does something like this to distract from the pedo files that he is on...
Wag the dog
No. The continued atrocities and cementing themselves in power are the primary goals: rounding up and disappearing people they don't like, Venezuela, then Greenland and Canada. Distracting from the Epstein files happens as a natural side effect without much extra effort. Their lackey supporters (entire repub party, corporate & social media, etc) are busy doing that work for them.

bracket and comma hell
True, ha! I'll fix it up a bit.
The coincidences keep on a comin!
