American troops ANONYMOUSLY sent photographs to CBS News to show the damage Iranian missiles and drones have done to the bases they are living on. The Pentagon is LYING about the war per Hegseth’s orders. He and the rest of Trump’s incompetent administration need to be impeached immediately.

Robert Mueller, a Vietnam veteran with a bronze star for heroism, and a purple heart has passed away. Perhaps his biggest honor was trying to save our democracy. I REFUSE to let him be a punchline for our deranged president. Robert Mueller was a hero and may he rest in peace and watch over us. Amen.
