The Democrats’ Epic Fury Over Iran Strikes

Original Article

Posted By: gaboy, 3/2/2026 12:30:18 AM

It was hardly necessary to consult Nostradamus to predict that the Democrats, who profess to abhor oppressive authoritarian theocracies, would denounce President Trump’s decision to topple the government of Iran — the very definition of such a regime. Nor was it a surprise that they downplay or simply ignore the obvious elation with which the Iranians themselves greeted the long overdue demise of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. It is striking, however, that the Democrats fail to see that their reflexive attacks on Trump for taking action (snip) reinforces the public perception that their party is weak and out of touch.

If Trump cured cancer, they'd come out in favor of cancer. If Trump built a beautiful new addition to the White House they'd......Oh ,wait....never mind. TDS destroys minds, although in many cases there isn't much to begin with when the destruction starts.

If any Iranians show public elation they could pay a heavy price later. If the ‘West’ goes wobbly and the Mullahs survive. So the support for these actions is multifold of what is apparent. The Democrats should be wary.

I can see it now: 2027 -- Saudi Arabia has recognized Israel and established full diplomatic relationship, Iran has installed a new constitutional republic, with first truly elected President in 5 decades, President Trump is honored by several Nobel Prize nominations including by both Netanyahu and the new Pres of the Republic of Iran, and Pres Trump is awarded both the Legion of Honor by the French govt and the Presidential Medal of Honour from Israel... Meanwhile, back at the farm, the Dems are busily ramping up for Trump's third impeachment, and salivating at just how they are going to undo all of the peace and order breaking out in the world.

“How do you not stand?” may go down as one of the most revealing sentences ever uttered by a president. During an all-American State of the Union address, President Donald Trump laid out a vision rooted in national sovereignty, public safety, and measurable success. He touted declines in crime, falling inflation, a secure border, and a renewed commitment to the American people. Yet seven times, Democrats refused

A few days ago, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) gave America some very welcome news. During a press conference he said that his Democratic members had two choices with regard to President Trump‘s upcoming State of the Union address: “The two options that are in front of us, in our house, is either attend with silent defiance, or to not attend.” This will definitely be a win-win for everyone who tunes in Tuesday evening to hear what the President has to say about his first-year accomplishments and future plans for the country.

tates don't come much bluer than Maryland. My father-in-law, who lived much of his adult life in Maryland, was heavily involved in local politics there, as a conservative Democrat - there were some then, and in Maryland, even in the '60s and '70s, you registered Democrat, or you were shut out of the process. He has told me on numerous occasions that there wasn't an elected official in Maryland who had two IQ points to rub together. Advertisement Case in point: Governor Wes Moore, who on Wednesday was eviscerated by Press Secretary Karolyn Leavitt for his action prohibiting local law enforcement from working with Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Redistricting Betrayal in Virginia 15 replies
Posted by gaboy 2/16/2026 1:56:09 AM Post Reply
Five years ago, two-thirds of Virginia voters passed a referendum that ostensibly eliminated partisan gerrymandering from the congressional redistricting process that follows each decennial census. This amended the commonwealth’s constitution such that redistricting would thence forth be carried out by the Virginia Redistricting Commission (VRC) rather than state politicians burdened by conflicts of interest. This bill of goods was sold to the Old Dominion’s voters as “election reform” by a very expensive public relations campaign run by various Democrat-affiliated activist groups. It was obvious that the VRC would be jettisoned when it no longer served Democrat interests.
The SAVE Act: Why Are Senate Republicans Dithering? 13 replies

In almost all midterm congressional elections, the President’s party loses seats in the House of Representatives. The only exceptions occurred in 1902, 1934, 1998, and 2002. This obviously means the razor thin Republican House majority — and thus the GOP’s governing trifecta — will be in considerable peril next November. This being the case, common sense dictates that certain crucial bills should be prioritized by Congress and sent to President Trump’s desk for signature post haste. Considering the insecure and chaotic manner in which federal elections are conducted in blue states, the SAVE Act clearly falls into the must pass category.

In a big blow to the Trump-deranged community, Melania Trump’s eponymous movie knocked the lights out on its opening weekend. It came in at No. 3 overall, and its $7 million box office take in three days is almost unheard of for a documentary. “Melania” is crushing it on Rotten Tomatoes, too, with a 99% audience score on the “popcorno­meter” easily besting the sneering critics’ 10% on the Tomatometer ratings. Like everything to do with Donald Trump’s two presidencies, whatever the leftist media’s opinion, the American public thinks the opposite. The inverse media-ometer is one of the most reliable gauges of public sentiment in this country.

Veteran conservative commentator Victor Davis Hanson on Monday shared an update on the major health issue that he announced at the end of 2025 that forced him to step away from his podcast and other media appearances. Hanson started his update — which he shared on X — with some good news, saying the removal of a cancerous lung mucinous adenoma carcinoma and the lower right lung lobe in early January was successful. But he said his recovery has been “slowed” down by a post-operation aneurism, which has led to “low red blood counts, fatigue, and bouts of arterial fibrillation.”

During the 2025 gubernatorial election the voters of Virginia believed they were choosing between pragmatic Democrat Rep. Abigail Spanberger and lackluster Republican Lieutenant Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears. The former was well funded and portrayed favorably by the corporate “news” media as a centrist, while the latter struggled to raise money and was labeled an extremist because of her strong support of gun rights. Spanberger won by double digits and most Virginians thought they were getting a slightly more liberal governor than her predecessor, Glenn Youngkin. Yet the moment she took office, it became obvious that Gov. Spanberger was no moderate.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., likes to argue that the “whole point” of protesting is to make people “uncomfortable.” Debate. Dissent. Running highly misleading political ads on TV. These are all part of our great tradition of political discourse. In this, as in so much else, the Democrat darling is incorrect. Taking to the streets to disrupt the lives of average citizens is a leftist ideal, not an American one. It’s antithetical to the highest virtue of republicanism, namely, minding your own business.

He's also been very skilled at laying out the Trump agenda and showing its worth, including while testifying before Congress. Rubio was testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday. He laid out the progress that had been happening in Venezuela because of the U.S. pressure. This is competence:

Kamala Harris has joined other far-left Dems by stating that she doesn’t support regime change in Iran. The former vice president posted her critique of Operation Epic Fury and President Donald Trump shortly after Saturday’s attack began. Harris described the attack as “a war American people do not want.” Her statement comes despite Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei being wiped out in his fortified compound along with 40 top Iranian security and regime figures. “Let me be clear: I am opposed to a regime-change war in Iran, and our troops are being put in harm’s way for the sake of Trump’s war of choice,

Tucker made the request last week during his visit with President Trump in the Oval Office. Here is video of Tucker Carlson entering the White House for an earlier meeting with President Trump. President Trump ignored his advice and took out Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei and his top officials in a military strike on Saturday.

Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad — a polarizing hardliner who became the face of Tehran’s nuclear defiance and incendiary anti-Israel rhetoric — was reportedly killed in Israeli airstrikes during Saturday’s strikes inside Iran. A report by the Israeli media outlet Ma’ariv stated that Ahmadinejad was under house arrest at the time and was killed in a targeted strike on his home.Ahmadinejad served as Iran’s sixth president from 2005 to 2013, rising from relative obscurity as mayor of Tehran to defeat establishment figure Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani in a surprise 2005 runoff.

The regime of the imams is trying to show defiance after the crushing blow of Khamenei’s death. While many observers look for ‘offramps’ for the US, Israel and Iran to cease the war that’s setting the whole Middle East on fire, signs on the ground suggest the hostilities may go on for a long time. Following the death of its supreme spiritual leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iranians have raised the ‘red flag of revenge’ above the Jamkaran Mosque, located in the city of Qom. “According to several media reports, a red banner, which symbolizes justice and revenge in Shiite tradition, was seen atop the Jamkaran Mosque.

The chairman of the Bundestag’s Parliamentary Control Committee (PKGr), which oversees Germany’s intelligence services, warned on Sunday in comments reported by Die Welt that “retaliatory measures” by pro-Iranian regime terrorists, including “sleeper cells in Europe”, could not be ruled out. Meanwhile, a spokesman for the Ministry of Interior said, “The Iranian regime has repeatedly demonstrated in the past that it carries out its terror beyond its own borders.

Americans woke up Saturday morning to the news that the United States and Israel unleashed a coordinated strike, dubbed Operation Epic Fury, leveling key Iranian military sites and taking out much of the regime’s top brass. Among the dead is none other than Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. It was a good day for the Middle East and the world. Except for the Democrats. Almost instantly, Democrats in Washington started howling, calling the strikes “illegal,” “dangerous,” and “reckless.” They claimed that President Donald Trump didn’t consult Congress. You’d think they’d be cheering the demise of one of the world’s most dangerous tyrants, but no. For the left, this wasn’t a victory against terror.

President Trump addressed the housing affordability crisis in his State of the Union address last week. “Another pillar of the American dream that has been under attack has been home ownership,” he said in the speech before Congress. He shared the story of a hard-working mom who was outbid on 20 different homes by “gigantic investment firms that bypassed inspection, paid all cash, and turned all those houses into rentals, stealing away her American dream.” Trump said this story is now sadly common in America, but the administration is eager to fix it through an executive order —

Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.) gave Dems’ public-facing reply, but the party’s true heart was on display at the event sponsored by the Democratic National Committee-associated Defiance.org. They’re revving up the old #Resistance machine and studying their old playbook for ideas.
