“… today will be yet again the highest volume of strikes that America has put over the skies of Iran and Tehran. Ramping up and only up.”

Agree with who earlier said Hegseth will likely be the fall guy here. Couldn’t happen to a better guy - Hope he doesn’t mind three hots and a cot.

Is that why we allow Iran to send its oil through the Straight (while closing it for the rest of the world) and on to our great ally (checks notes) China?

Feels like something Southpark would make in mockery. and parents would be pissed at Southpark for the glorification of violence.

You can't really parody the Trump administration because their typical day is already a parody of a normal, even if crummy, administration.

The only way you could really do parody of the Trump administration is to reverse the bit and show what they'd be like if they were competent, intelligent, and sane.
