My sources actually put them at Diego Garcia or in route to there along with quite a few fighters as well.
Well…the US has now bombed three nuclear sites in Iran. Now we’ll see if it escalates to war.

Well I was wrong about that. I predicted we wouldn’t bomb them.

I mean escalates to war involving the US. Is this one and done or is the US getting pulled in?

I’m with people who watch News Max, which has been banging the war drums for a while and it’s currently very congratulatory towards Trump about the strikes.

I’m kinda fascinated by the growing rift between anti-war and pro-war MAGA and am curious to see how this plays out.

This is one prediction that I would’ve rather been wrong on…
America doesn’t go to war anymore. We just have conflicts.

The War Powers Act is pretty meaningless by now, isn’t it?

I guess I did have a little hope the US would sit this out.
