Donald Trump has just taken his place alongside Reagan & FDR as one of the most consequential presidents in American history. Many have occupied his office, but there are only a handful whose courageous leadership has quite literally reshaped the world. There will be statues of him from Caracas to Tehran. He is, as we speak, assuming his place in the pantheon of our nations greatest leaders.

@MikeM85Cowboys@1Nicdar The best‑supported information right now is that the USS Abraham Lincoln was not damaged, because U.S. Central Command has explicitly denied Iran’s claim. Thanks for the response. So glad they didn't hit it.
🙋♀️Hello - Iranian here.
For those fixated on 'legality' to excuse the regime in Iran - F*ck You.
No, I will not let you be my voice. You don't get to narrate my story, you don't get to claim moral superiority. You don't get to tell me my feelings are wrong.
Is it legal to throw women in prison for strands of hair? Is it legal to mass execute people? Is it legal to turn a fertile land into a parched desert? Is it legal to rape? Is it legal to shoot innocent people? Is it legal to kill children? Is it legal to torture people to death? Is it legal to spread terrorism? Is it legal to deprive people of a livelihood? Is it legal to shoot people in the eye to blind them? Is it legal to silence people and take away all of their human rights? Is it legal to shoot down a passenger plane? Is it legal to drive millions to leave their country? Is it legal to jail women for singing and dancing? Is it legal to disappear people including children?
You will never experience anything like Iranians have experienced for the last 47 years.
Iranians have fought barehanded and they've paid a price. All up to 1,000,000 (one million) Iranians have been murdered since the regime came to power.
Your books on 'civil disobedience' and 'collective protest' are useless against an armed opposition that is ideologically driven and will kill all that stand in its way.
You want legality? The world has a duty to protect innocent lives. It's enshrined in R2P. Some people seem to think Iranians aren't humans. The murder, genocide and massacre of Iranians receives scant media attention - hence scant sympathy.
Those who proclaim to care about 'human rights' must think Iranians are animals and not worthy. Their hatred of Israel and US is so great they've lost all perspective.
Yes, Iranians are happy. They're happy someone took out Ali Khamenei and many others directly responsible for so much pain and agony.
And you know what? We're unashamedly hopeful that with the help of the world's superpower, we can reclaim our country and build a better tomorrow.
We know there's a long way to go, but give us this brief moment of reprieve, because daily we sit and try to tell the story of the lives lost, those at risk of execution, those under torture. We've seen the pictures and videos of massacres taking place.
Our dance and happiness comes with a heavy weight. We do so, in knowledge of the many who never lived to see this day.
The day of freedom will come to Iran, it's glorious - and we're not sorry if some outside help contributed to making that happen.
So don't speak on my behalf and stop excusing this regime on grounds of 'anti-colonialism'. and 'anti-Zionism'.

This is how the Washington Post eulogized the dirt bag who murdered 40,000 innocent civilians this month. This is not satire:
"With his bushy white beard and easy smile, Ayatollah Khamenei cut a more avuncular figure in public than his perpetually scowling but much more revered mentor, and he was known to be fond of Persian poetry and classic Western novels, especially Victor Hugo’s 'Les Misérables.' ... Some Iranians who knew Ayatollah Khamenei before he became supreme leader described him as a 'closet moderate'' ...
@RashidaTlaib Yes, this is true; however, this regime which you support also killed 10s of thousands of protestors. They're both horrible, but you choose to only mention one. Why?
🚨BOOM! After Elon Musk and his team UNCOVERED SPYWARE planted on DHS Sec. Kristi Noem’s devices by Deep State staffers, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna just hit her with the MILLION-DOLLAR question: Is this happening to MEMBERS OF CONGRESS and their staff too?!
Trump tells us everything if you listen carefully.
He highlights (again) how Obama’s Iran Deal was a pathway for Iran to obtain nuclear weapons.
Trump’s interest in Iran is about undoing Obama’s mess. Obama tried to give nukes to a Deep State proxy.
Iranian here with a message for every single American who voted for President Trump:
Thank you.
God bless President Trump.
God bless the US Military.
God bless America. 🇺🇸
