The #CIA director visited #Moscow covertly. Was he there to dissuade Putin from launching more incursions into NATO territory using drones or other means? Or was he there regarding #Hormuz and #IranWar? Or both
Rubio did not make the journey as the Secretary of State nor did #DNI Jay Clayton. That says something. MAYBE #US Intelligence has uncovered something that is required to be prevented from happening, so it was shared. Emphasis on the word MAYBE. If yes, what is it?

This view of the #IranWar is from
a #PoliticalCartoon by Kal Kallaugher: -
Such idiots. They should just declare "mission accomplished" and walk away. We all know they have no clue what they're doing.
"Once again, these actions point to an administration that wants to end the war in Iran but doesn’t know how. Moreover, it has lacked a clear goal ever since Trump’s ambition of regime change went out the window and is operating within political, economic and military constraints."

Donald Trump has at least three wars happening today: there is the #IranWar which Trump is losing, the #TradeWar with Canada that just began, and Trump's war against the #KennedyCenter.
"The Trump administration threatened the demolition of the Kennedy Center if the center is not allowed to close for two years for renovations. The Justice Department floated the notion in a court filing Monday":

"A series of firings initiated by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has left the Army essentially rudderless as it struggles to deal with the threat posed by cheap, deadly drones and missiles that have pounded U.S. bases in the Middle East. The Army has not had a chief of staff, the service’s top officer, since Mr. Hegseth fired Gen. Randy George without explanation in April, and there are no signs that he is close to filling the position":
