The New York Times reports that President Donald J. Trump has, for now, paused plans to significantly expand U.S. strikes against Iran after senior military leaders warned that doing so could dangerously deplete Patriot interceptor and other air defense missile stockpiles needed to protect U.S. forces in the Middle East.
According to the report, the administration is weighing those military constraints alongside the risks of broader regional escalation, while continuing economic pressure and leaving the door open to diplomacy. If accurate, the decision highlights how limited stocks of critical air defense munitions are increasingly shaping U.S. military options as the conflict continues.
They ask why I’m the only Republican to vote No on Trump’s spending bills:
He “awarded Pfizer contracts worth roughly $1.24 billion for COVID-19 vaccines for the remainder of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2027, including hundreds of millions for pediatric doses” https://t.co/OZ1psduFJI
“when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.” - Declaration Of independence
It’s time to do what Thomas Jefferson & the Declaration Of Independence said we should be doing right now.
There is no semblance of any kind of consent from the people to most anything the government is currently doing.
The government is a complete fascist & rapacious oligarchy ruling against the interests of the people. This government has no legitimacy.
I don’t know how to do this, but someone does.
What do you think George Washington & Thomas Jefferson would be doing today?
Everyone needs to see this. Hundreds of Israeli settlers are coming down from hilltops and setting entire Palestinian villages on fire. Full on pogroms.
Let me explain this absurd ruse: The Pentagon is pretending there have been two Iran wars separated by a brief cease-fire.
The reality: By going more than 90 days without congressional authorization @SecWar IS BREAKING THE LAW and must be held accountable.
Ken Paxton’s billionaire handlers won’t let him answer questions in public. It’s why he hasn’t debated in over a decade.
But I want him to prove me wrong.
I’m challenging Ken Paxton to three televised debates.
HOLY CRAP!
The documents Trump just released following his speech show that Russians worked with American officials to advance stories about Burisma and Joe Biden being corrupt.
Someone is going to get fired tonight for accidentally allowing this one to be declassified.
This is why Trump HATES @ossoff: He’s too good at this.
OSSOFF: Did the President pardon a man who worked with the Sinaloa Cartel to facilitate massive narco trafficking into the US?
CLAYTON: Word Salad… He was a convicted narco trafficker.
OSSOFF: Did the President of the United States pardon a convicted narco trafficker?
CLAYTON: Yes.
I couldn't understand why the FBI was investigating Lindsey Graham's death—in the absence of any suspicious toxicology report in the autopsy—until I realized it gave Trump and his lawyer Kash Patel an excuse to enter Graham's house and remove potentially incriminating documents
