BREAKING: Donald Trump makes history in the worst way possible as Iran shoots and hits an "invincible" F-35 fighter jet for the first time ever — destroying it's reputation as an "unhittable" plane.
Taxpayers shelled out $2.1 trillion to develop this aircraft...
"The F-35 is the most advanced node in a 21st Century Security network-centric architecture," claimed Lockheed Martin.
"An innovative combination of stealth, speed, and cutting-edge sensors allows it to fly through or slip past advanced air defenses, virtually undetected," claimed Air & Space Forces Magazine.
“It's like fighting Mr. Invisible," said one Air Force official.
These quotes are just a taste of the hubris that the U.S. military displayed while discussing this jet program in the past...
And it all came crashing down in a single moment.
An F-35, the crown jewel of our supposed air superiority, was forced to make an emergency landing at an American air base in the Middle East after it was struck by Iranian fire. The jet had been “flying a combat mission over Iran” at the time.
“The aircraft landed safely, and the pilot is in stable condition. This incident is under investigation," said Captain Tim Hawkins, a spokesperson for U.S. Central Command.
In addition to the aforementioned $2.1 trillion program price tag, an individual F-35 costs roughly $100 million. It's unclear how much it will cost to repair the crippled aircraft but the damage to its warfighting reputation is incalculable.
This catastrophic incident reveals that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was blatantly lying when he claimed that Iran's air defenses have been "flattened" by Trump's bombing campaign. Trump himself has echoed similar lies about Iran's current defense capabilities. They want us to think that this war has already been won — but it becomes more apparent with each passing day that Iran is winning. The Strait of Hormuz remains closed and they hold all of the leverage.
Meanwhile, we're destroying our most valuable military equipment and burning through money that we could be investing back home. Hegseth's Pentagon just yesterday asked the White House for an additional $200 billion to wage this illegal war. All of this is in service of fighting a country who posed no threat to us so that Israel can expand its power in the region.
We are witnessing nothing short of national destruction at the hands of the MAGA regime.

BREAKING: Trump administration strips Social Security benefits from a Black American cancer patient by claiming that she is “not lawfully present in the U.S.”
This is what Trump’s intentional cruelty looks like in 2026.
Ramona Rakestraw, 59, was born at Parkland Hospital in Dallas in 1966. She has never left Dallas County — not for vacation, not for work, not for anything. And yet somehow, the federal government has decided she is “not lawfully present in the U.S.”
Her crime? Existing while sick.
Rakestraw has battled kidney disease for decades. She endured a transplant. She returned to dialysis. In 2024, she was diagnosed with cancer. Through it all, she survived on Supplemental Security Income — her only source of income — and Medicare Part B.
Then in October, the payments stopped. Why? Because her “immigration status” was suddenly under review.
“I’m not an immigrant,” she said. “I’ve never even left Dallas County — let alone the country.”
Let that sink in. A lifelong Texan. Born in an American hospital. Fighting cancer. Forced to march down to a Social Security office with her birth certificate in hand to prove she belongs in the country where she was born.
And still, she received a letter stating: “We cannot pay you benefits because you are not lawfully present in the U.S.”
This is the human cost of a system so obsessed with rooting out “illegals” that it can’t tell the difference between a Dallas native and a border crossing.
Her Medicare was eventually restored. Her SSI — her only income — was not.
Now she’s appealing, drowning in paperwork while undergoing dialysis and cancer treatment. Sixty days to fight a bureaucratic accusation that should never have happened.
This isn’t about paperwork errors. It’s about a government climate that treats citizenship as suspect and vulnerable Americans as disposable.
Ramona Rakestraw isn’t asking for special treatment. She’s asking for the benefits she’s legally entitled to — the benefits she paid into with a lifetime of perfectly legal existence in this country.
Born in Dallas. Fighting for her life. And now forced to fight her own government just to survive. That’s not just incompetence. That’s a system that’s lost its humanity.
