Cage fights, fireworks, motorcycles, tanks, soldiers --- today, a man displays that he is just an insecure spoiled little rich boy, living out the fantasies of someone who, sadly, reached 80 w/o ever growing up. June 14, 2026 -- possibly the Dumbest Day in the History of Western Civilization.

Not one American should die for the Netanyahu regime. But more than a dozen already have, with hundreds more injured. And now Donald Trump is preparing to betray America yet again by sending our boys and girls to die in a foreign land for absolutely nothing. Impeach this man.
