Just hearing Hegseth starts me cursing . It is beyond sickening . He is a lethal idiot. I would like to see Trumps sons and daughter put on the uniform . These filthy dirty people . I have friends that so worried about there sons in uniform and I have friends from Iran . They have family there. . They are worried sick. For what? For some asshole who doesn't know what he is doing. How many terrorists will they create with all this ? I think about Gaza and the children being killed and I think do you think the survivors will forget this .. no they won't . Does Israel and the asshole really think they are going to put an end to all of this. They probably lit a fire they can't put out . They don't care because they will long gone. It is a cluster fuck . lost in america

HOGSBREATH OR HEGSETH,whatever the dirtbag is called is a disgust and disgrace to the America we used to love. This greaseball talks about Iranians as if they are not human beings. He said “no mercy, we beat them while they are down” is that what a normal decent person would say? And would he like his “enemies” to say the same about American soldiers when they are taken prisoner?

Disgusting is too nice a word for this animal

There was a very disturbing discussion on NPR with Iran analysts who pointed out that there is one armed member of the Iranian security forces for every 90 civilians. The civilians are terrified of them. It is incredibly short sighted to think these civilians will suddenly emerge and "take over" the country. We will be faced with utter chaos and Iranian citizens are going to be the cannon fodder.

True. Now on a whim, he is giving Kurds support in Iran. The country will be wrecked. You break it, you own it.

Turkey = NATO member.

Turkey has had many issues over the years with Kurds wanting their own homeland within Turkey.

I know for a fact that the dopes in out govt that decided a war with Iran would be a great thing probably don’t even know how to spell Kurd.

Change never happens from the top down.

The orange imbecile thinks that by taking out Iran’s high command aka the top govt leaders that change will happen.

Think about the fall of the Berlin Wall and Communism.

Did the US or anyone physically “ take out “ the Soviet govt? No. It was attrition that broke the Soviets. During that attrition time people dreamed, planned and strategized about a new future.

From Iran’s point of view 1979 is not that long ago. I’m sure Iranians have planned and have dreams of a better future. But, this must be on their time. Not ours.

You can lead a horse to water. But you can’t make it drink.

Hegseth( if that’s his name) is an ash hole 🕳️! He talks like a “war hawk “ if that was also a complete liar and coward. Trump and idiot gang are illegally entering America 🇺🇸 into a war( that he PROMISED) he wouldn’t even do. Trump is insane and putting our entire nation at risk of a third world war, and going off to Mar Lago to party 🎊 and talk about drapes without a care in the world! This isn’t a casino 🎰 to bankrupt ( although he’s doing a great job with our taxpayers money 💵) ! 1 $BILLION A DAY FOR THIS ILLEGAL WAR IS A BIT MUCH AND I THINK THAT HE SHOULD HAVE NOTIFIED CONGRESS TO FIND OUT IF AMERICANS COULD AFFORD IT. He thinks that we are his “sugar daddy”. Well he’s dead 😵 now diaper donny so take that bottle out of your mouth 🍼, and grow up like the big boys. PLEASE 🙏🏻 GET RID OF THIS GUY 🖕🏻‼️

What does Hegseth think will happen with Iranian sleeper cells in the USA when he tells them and the world that there are no rules anyone needs to follow in this war? And at a time when the DHS is also lead by an idiot, and all assets are distracted deporting gardeners and children?

Anyone celebrating the 250th needs to re-examine things. This is the leadership of a depraved, indifferent country with people who gave them their vote. Many among those voters have no regrets. There is nothing to celebrate.

We might not live to see our 250th "birthday." And, we are taking the world with us. Hegseth, the drunk and sadistic hatemonger, in league with the demented Trump do not care if we are heading for WWIII. Hegseth thinks the nuclear destruction will be followed by Armageddon. What a lunatic. Trump figures he is near death and feels a narcisisstic boom erupting in his chest at the thought of taking the world him.

Oh God is that the only way we will get rid of them both? Say it ain’t so, Sam‼️

I hope not. But, it is a real possibility. I would much rather see his regime toppled through impeachment following an overwhelming Democratic victory in this fall's Congressional elections. He and all who worked in his regime should be made to answer for the crimes they have committed.

Agreed.

I’m old enough to remember the Bicentennial. It was a fantastic time to be an American.

We had our differences back then for sure. But, just like a Venn diagram most of those circles overlapped. And, common sense and common decency were standard among both political parties and the majority of the American people.

In 2026? Fat chance. There are a few of us “ OG Americans “ left but normalcy and common sense are currently on the endangered species list.

Common sense is certainly lacking in Congress when they have the power to stop the madmen who started this pointless war and decided not to. Fetterman in the Senate was the sole Democrat who joined Republicans to defeat the resolution to end Trump's unconstitutional war, while Rand Paul joined Democrats to assert Congress' power to declare war, and in this case, stop a war. Fetterman's stroke has left him mentally disabled and Rand Paul is true to his beliefs (which I, for the most part, do not agree with) but all the other Republicans would bury their heads up Trump's ass to stay in office.

In the House, four Democrats joined Republicans to defeat the resolution and one Republican, Rep. Massie (no surprise) voted with the Democrats.

The billionaires in league with the Christian crazies, who seem to think they will see Jesus descending on a nuclear bomb's mushrooming cloud, will end life on our precious planet. I wish I believed in a god who would damn them all; I take some comfort in the fact that they will unwittingly be committing suicide while they kill (Hegseth is orgasming over this) the rest of us.

Husaria's avatar

There are many ways this all can / could end.

Invoke the 25th amendment.

Vote ( Congress, as you posted ) to stop this war as it is unconstitutional.

Impeachment. Trial. Removal from office.

Cut off the funding. The House holds the purse strings

I agree 100% that the Christian fascists are cutting off their noses to spite their faces. And, unfortunately you are correct again that they will kill us all with their insanity of Bronze age fairy tale fantasies.

I’m not a believer in a magical deity either but the Christian fascists contradict themselves constantly . They are trying to force and write God’s will by waging war. If they follow their faith ( they don’t ) they should know that God’s will is God’s will. There is nothing his children can do to change that. God gonna do what God gonna do. Plus, they must have forgotten the First Commandment which is “ Thou shall not kill “ However, in classic Orwellian style I’m sure they would say…..” It doesn’t say not to kill Iranians. So, what we’re doing is A-OK in God’s eyes "

Hegseth compared the war to a football game??? Named the war Operation Epic Fury (Did this come from his comic books). IS THIS MORON EVEN OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL????

MF's avatar

Was that strike from Israel or the U.S.? Not that it makes a difference.

So "President Hegseth" (per Markwayne Mullin) was just practicing with those speed boats in the Caribbean? "Time for the real thing, Pete." - Die Hard.

Tony's avatar

precise? did Pete kegsseth say precise? so they intended to hit the girls school?

Martha Jones Eberle's avatar

trump has no functioning brain, just wants to be at the forefront of attention, and hegseth, a completely incompetent teenager playing a video game of war. thank you MAGAets, for ruining our nation, and making us the laughing stock of the world.

Carol's avatar

I almost thought I was watching the movie "Patton" only with the caveat, on steroids. Well boot lickers in Congress, what are you going to do now? Approve that additional funding for this war? You should be ashamed. There should not even be any debate. No!
