Progressive Squad Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and a chorus of Democrats called on President Trump to be impeached after he decided to bomb top nuclear facilities of Iran — blasting the move as “unconstitutional.” “The President’s disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers,” Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) declared not long after Trump announced the attack. “He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

Among the larger states, the two that are closest to each other in population and demographics are New York and Florida. According to the latest U.S. Census data (from July 1, 2024), the population of New York was 19,867,248, while the population of Florida was 23,372,215. More recent estimates from a source called World Population Review put New York’s 2025 population at 19,997,100 (an increase of about 130,000 on the year), and Florida’s at 23,839,600 (an increase of about 467,000 over the same year). Yet in terms of the approach to state government — taxing, spending, and government programs overall...

The Daily Telegraph reports Abbas Araghchi confirmed Iran “reserves all options to defend its security, its interests, its people…All options are on the table” while applauding Russia as “a friend of Iran.” The report notes Araghchi said he will speak to Iran’s key ally on how to proceed. “We always consult with each other,” he added in a press conference in Istanbul.

Chris Matthews, who once felt 'a thrill up [his] leg' for Obama, now critical of the former president's nuclear deal. Former MSNBC host Chris Matthews offered surprising criticism of former President Obama on Friday after Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) launched a sweeping strike on Iran's nuclear sites Thursday evening. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that one of Iran’s top nuclear facilities had been hit in the operation intended to target Iran's nuclear and missile infrastructure. Two Iranian generals and at least 20 senior Iranian commanders were also killed in the strikes.

They say the more money you have, the more problems you’ll encounter. For many wealthy leftists, it seems that the more money they possess, the more willing they are to exaggerate the problems of society. And the tendency to overstate social ills and life hurdles tends to get worse if you’re a black person who thrives in the highest tax bracket. Whoopi Goldberg is one of these wealthy black Americans who enjoys rhetorically disassociating from their economic privilege to wallow in race-oppression narratives. On Wednesday’s edition of ABC’s “The View,” Goldberg ridiculously equated life under Iran’s oppressive regime with life...

Saturday morning, flight trackers picked up a host of stealthy U.S. B-2 bombers that took off from their Air Force base in Missouri and headed west over the Pacific. It was a ruse. Hours later, a group of B-2s attacked Iran’s most important nuclear sites from the east, defense officials said, hitting well-defended facilities where giant U.S. bunker busters were thought to have the greatest chance of success. President Trump said U.S. submarines firing cruise missiles joined in the attack, striking other key nuclear facilities. The move allowed the U.S. to get its bombers over Iran faster and with a...

During MSNBC’s breaking coverage of the U.S. strike on Iranian nuclear facilities, network host Rachel Maddow questioned what she called “lazy common wisdom” that President Donald Trump was an “isolationist.” According to Maddow, Trump’s decision on Iran was aligned with the views of neoconservatives. “[N]ow, common wisdom about this president, about the political movement he leads, is that he is supposedly isolationist, that he is supposedly anti-war,” she said. “That has never been exactly right. It’s always been kind of a lazy common wisdom. In less than six months back in office, he has threatened military action against Panama, against...

The unrest in Los Angeles isn’t just about politics. It is a symptom of something deeper: a national collapse of resilience. Behind the protests lies a broader crisis, a fragile mindset that mistakes discomfort for danger, grievance for identity, and emotional reactivity for truth. New polling reveals a striking psychological divide: 45 percent of liberals report poor mental health, compared to just 19 percent of conservatives. This is not about ideology. It reflects two competing visions of how Americans are being taught to face adversity. As a psychotherapist practicing in New York City and Washington, D.C., I have seen firsthand...

For 40 years, Iran’s relentless hostility toward the U.S. has fueled proxy wars, terror attacks, and nuclear ambitions. Now, after diplomatic overtures were rejected, America’s decisive strike on Iran’s nuclear sites signals a historic turning point in the Middle East power struggle. For 40 years, Iran has reverberated with the menacing chant of “Death to America” and “Death to Israel,” a rallying cry born from the 1979 Islamic Revolution under Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. Last night, Saturday, June 21, 2025, that decades-long hostility faced a decisive response when President Donald Trump authorized a U.S. military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities at...

British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer appeared the most willing of America’s allies in Europe to align himself with President Donald Trump’s decision to bomb Iranian nuclear sites, while fellow European leaders stressed for calm and a return to talks. On Saturday evening, President Donald Trump made a surprise announcement that the United States had conducted targetted ariel bombings of three nuclear sites in Iran. In an address to the nation, President Trump said that the facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan had been “completely and totally obliterated.” Trump added that “Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now...

In a stunning display of military precision and secrecy, the Trump administration executed a flawless bombing campaign on Iran’s key nuclear sites, showcasing the unmatched capabilities of America’s stealth arsenal and the discipline of a White House that kept the entire operation under wraps until the last bomb dropped. “This is an operation… in the last 18 years since I’ve been at the Pentagon, I’ve never seen such operational security,” reported Fox News’ Jennifer Griffin, clearly impressed. “There was nobody speaking about this, any of the preparations. There was a complete lockdown, almost a blackout of information for the last...

Russia says that it “strongly condemned” the United States’s bombings of nuclear sites in Iran, calling the attacks “irresponsible” and a “gross violation of international law.” “It is already clear that a dangerous escalation has begun, fraught with further undermining of regional and global security,” the Russian foreign ministry adds in a statement.

Top seven errors by which our generation is deceived There are no secret interpretational skills needed to see what prophecy is predicting or promising. A bit of common sense and some deductive reasoning is all that is needed to understand prophecy. Since one quarter of the Bible has to do with prophecy, we need only split all that it says into two categories. The first category consists of things Christ judges, destroys, or removes at his second coming. These things show exactly which behaviors are incorrect, sinful and ultimately destructive. The second category...

HEAVEN — Sources confirmed that Toby Keith smiled his biggest grin today as he watched American B-2 bombers rain down bunker buster bombs on Iran. "Brings a tear to your eye," said Keith, watching as smoke billowed into the sky. "We'll put a boot in your... well, I can't say that word now, being in Heaven and all. But, go Uncle Sam!!" Keith reportedly began keeping closer tabs on earth after hearing that the Statue of Liberty had started shaking her fist at someone. "Hoo boy, Mother Freedom 'bout to start ringing her bell, let's goooo!" shouted Keith. "The whole...

🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem 🇮🇱(6/22/25)[Prayer]Water, Rivers, and Streams in the BibleDeuteronomy 8:15-1815 He led you through the vast and dreadful wilderness, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venomous snakes and scorpions. He brought you water out of hard rock. 16 He gave you manna to eat in the wilderness, something your ancestors had never known, to humble and test you so that in the end it might go well with you. 17 You may say to yourself, “My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me.” 18 But remember the Lord your...

Five hours after the United States announced the destruction of Iranian nuclear sites, Iran launched two missile salvos targeting Israel – the first such attack in more than 30 hours. A total of at least 27 missiles were fired in the attack, with impacts recorded in Haifa and across central Israel. According to IDF assessments, the first barrage consisted of 22 missiles, followed by a second with five more. Following the attack, Magen David Adom teams treated and transported victims.
