That’s strange. I was explicitly assured by the White House that the US military campaign had succeeded in its goal of eliminating the Iranian military threat. Must be some sort of mistake

Unbelievable! The tRump cabal still screams that Biden weaponized the DOJ… when the only one who actually turned it into a personal hit squad was tRump himself. Team tRump is still out here claiming he wants to “pay the victims back” because he “feels very strongly.” www.mediaite.com/media/news/b...

So I'm gonna go out on a limb here & say that sailors literally jumping ship due to poverty level conditions might be a sign that morale has fuckin TANKED.
