NDAA Shocker: Congress Seeks To Merge US/Israeli Militaries!

Forget about the billions we send to prop up the Israeli military each year: The National Defense Authorization Act for 2027 contains a shocking provision that all but joins the US and Israeli militaries into one! And no future US president will have the authority to alter the arrangement. Can this anti-American measure be stopped in a Congress that is bought and paid for by a foreign lobby?

Silver Lining: Iran War Ends US Military Occupation of Middle East

President Trump’s war of choice on Iran has been an unmitigated disaster. However for those of us opposed to the global US military empire the silver lining is that a US return to its military bases throughout the Middle East is extremely doubtful. Their vulnerability has been indisputably demonstrated and their usefulness has been shown to be incorrect. Also today: Trump flying high in his political endorsements – will that carry over to a GOP win in November’s midterms?

Israel’s Gaza-ization of Lebanon

Every time Trump talks peace with Iran, Israel intensifies its bombing of Lebanon. Parts of the country resemble Gaza, with all buildings flattened and civilians murdered. Trump “forbade” Israel from attacking Lebanon last month. Israel scoffed.

Desperate For A Win, Trump Indicts Cuba’s Raul Castro

As the Trump Administration sinks further into the mire of its ill-advised war on Iran, the “victory” of its quick snatch of Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro is leading it to seek another easy “win.” The indictment of 94 year old former president of Cuba, Raul Castro this week, for an incident 30 years ago, points to renewed interest in Cuba – and likely a desire to detract attention from the ugly quagmire in the Hormuz Strait.

The Real Cost Of The Iran War

According to a new study by Brown University, President Trump’s war on Iran has cost the American consumer $40 billion in increased fuel costs. But it does not end at higher fuel prices. That price increase also fuels inflation in every other sector of the consumer economy. The longer the war goes on, the more pain Americans will feel. Also today: Will Trump invade Cuba in search of another quick victory?

Trump, Outside Millions, and Massie: Will Voters Have the Final Say in Kentucky?

It is the highest spending US House race in history, with more than $10 million pouring into Thomas Massie’s House re-election bid from outside oligarchs. Massie has angered a group of billionaires – the same group that bankrolled Trump’s presidential bid – for adhering to his pro-liberty, anti-interventionist views. Are US elections for sale to outside special interests?

Tucker Carlson A ‘Domestic Terrorist’?

White House counterterrorism advisor Sebastian Gorka has opened the door to consider conservative voices like Tucker Carlson “domestic terrorists.” How? By claiming they are no longer considered conservative and thus can be considered under the White House counterterrorism strategy to be part of the Left. It is a word game at this point, but a very dangerous one, painting a target on critics of Trump’s Iran war.

US Has Lost In Iran. Now Comes The Pain.

In a shocking article appearing in the pro-war Atlantic, arch neocon Robert Kagan has declared a US defeat in its war on Iran. It is a defeat more painful and thorough than the loss in Afghanistan and even Vietnam, he argues. Now, with that loss, comes the pain. Economic. Reputational. And more. The world has suddenly changed.

Trump Going Back To Failed ‘Project Freedom’?

After calling the Iranian counter-proposal “totally unacceptable,” President Trump is threatening to reinstate the failed “Project Freedom” policy of escorting tankers through the Strait of Hormuz via a dangerous passage close to Oman. Will the tankers and cargo ships take the risk? Is war again on the horizon?
