You Judge: Trump Boasts About Coordinating with Iran to Attack an American Base

Photo from You Tube

In the aftermath of the United States bombing of Iran's underground nuclear facilities last month (amazing how fast events have happened in the last four weeks,) the terrorist Middle Eastern Nation planned a retaliatory strike against a United States military base in Qatar.

The coordination of this strike was apparently conducted with discussions between the Iranians and Donald Trump.

This astounding revelation was not broadcast by the Iranians but by Mr. Trump at several events, including a recent one in Iowa with the Felon Chief, twice impeached, and enabler of the January 6 Domestic Terrorist attack at the national capitol, boasting about it to laughing know-nothing Iowans.

This is the same Iowa event where the leader of the whole country said he hated Democrats, where the 'stable genius' referred to his Secretary of the Interior as the Secretary of Energy and the supposed opponent of Anti Semitism on college campuses referred to American bankers as "shylocks."

Here is the transcript of his remarks at the Iowa event. 

"You know they called me to tell me they have to take a shot at us. This was Iran. Very respectful. That means they respect us because we dropped 14 bombs. They said, 'We'd like to take 14 shots at you.' I said. 'Go ahead. I understand.' They said, 'Where they do it.' I said, 'Good.' We emptied out the fort. It was a beautiful military base in Qatar, who treated us really fantastically well. And they said, 'Sir, is one o'clock okay?' I said, 'it was fine.' We could make it later, And we had nobody but four Gunners. We had four, they call them Gunners, and they shoot the Patriots. They shoot the missiles. It's hard to believe."

Sure, the four gunners remaining on the ground appreciated their Commander-in-Chief, if his recounting is to be believed, telling the Iranians where to shoot.

Do you know what is even more horrific? Trump openly said he coordinated with an opponent an attack on an American base, and the people in the audience chuckled and laughed.

Miss Joe Biden yet?

If this account is a lie, include it in all the other lies that the Liar-in-chief has spun since going down that escalator in 2015.

If not, what do you call coordinating and conspiring with the enemy?

You judge.

Despite MAGA, Climate Mayors Vow to Continue the Clean Energy Revolution

Following the passage of the Big Ugly MAGA Project 2025 Angel of Death Economic Bill, the organization Climate Mayors released a joint statement attributable to Chairperson/Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego, Boise Mayor Lauren McLean, and Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens, saying that despite the gutting of clean energy and manufacturing tax credits, they will continue the clean energy revolution in their cities.

The statement reads:

"Today, Congress betrayed its promise to the hardworking people of this country by passing a bill that guts clean energy tax credits, raising costs for families and businesses at a time when more than half of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Creating more affordable cities that don’t price out the people who built them means investing in the tools and programs that we know lower costs - and that includes clean energy. We have seen firsthand these tax credits have made energy more reliable, more affordable, and more abundant; it has revived American manufacturing and created tens of thousands of good-paying jobs right here in our cities. By gutting clean energy tax credits, Congress is threatening to take us backwards instead of looking towards our future. As portions of our country suffer through yet another record-breaking and dangerous heat-wave, we will not let our cities be pawns of special interests. We will keep fighting the cost of living crisis that has been exacerbated by climate change. 

“As mayors, we have the power and the authority to keep pushing forward on the programs and policies that will create more affordable, more prosperous, and healthier cities. Climate Mayors stand ready and able to partner with other state, local, and business leaders to unleash abundant, affordable, and clean energy, create more good-paying jobs, and build healthier, safer, and more prosperous cities nationwide.”
