At least as far as these old eyes can see.

And it didn’t need to be this way.

22. Trump tore up the 2015 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Agreement with Iran
Wed Mar 4, 2026, 05:25 PM
Mar 4

Called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the accord was signed by Iran -- as well as the USA, UK, France, Germany, Russia, China and other nations -- in order to restrict its nuclear arms program, ensure inspections and verify compliance with promises to forgo nuclear weapons. Trump, out of spite or pique, wrecked that. And today, the world stands at the precipice of Armageddon.

His old man lied America into the First Gulf War. In the photo below, the Kuwait ambassador's daughter is seen committing perjury on behalf of the administration as she tells the US Congress she was a nurse at a Kuwaiti City hospital who saw the Iraqi soldiers take babies from their incubators and leave them on the cold, hard floor so they could steal the incubators for the babes in Baghdad.

...SOB Poppy shoulda been investigated, indicted and prosecuted. But...no.

"If I wanted to lie, or if we wanted to lie, if we wanted to exaggerate, I wouldn't use my daughter to do so. I could easily buy other people to do it." -- Kuwaiti Ambassador

Then, for Big Oil and the Ekkkonomy, his idiot son did the same thing. Still, they knew shame. Today, their party has taken off the pretensions and is openly NAZI. A number of people are taking notice, but it's too bad none of them seem to own TV and radio stations.

Who, like his very sick, deeply insecure, and demented Boss, revels in meting out "death and destruction" and salivates over bellicose language such as the bizarre "warfighters" who, if they know what's good for them, will be trim and clean-shaven manly masculine men.

But HRC had emails, and Kamala has a funny laugh.

via God knows what: false God/Christianity, and too many/too much fight clubs, white male fraternizing, steroids and other drugs. In sum: a pitifully disgusting example of a man; a false man.

"Bold, precise ROE" = nothing resembling ROE. You can kill precisely whomever you see fit.

But you must be neat, clean-shaven and lookin' good.
