Little Donnie and the MAGAts are at war with Iran because, they claim, Iran is the enemy. So why is Little Donnie helping the enemy<\/a>?\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Trump administration said on Thursday that it planned to remove sanctions on Iranian oil, an unorthodox move intended to lower surging crude prices, which have hurt U.S. consumers and helped Iran profit. The strategy would be a sharp reversal from years of maximum-pressure sanctions aimed to cripple Iran\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

How is this not treason? Oh, wait, it IS treason!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Or, could it be that Iran is not an enemy? Then why are we wasting a billion dollars a day bombing Iran, killing Iranians and destroying the world economy?\u00a0<\/p>\n

As David Kurtz of TPM puts it<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

Shoring up your adversary in an armed conflict you initiated in a desperate attempt to mitigate the consequences of your elective war may forever stand as the paramount example of Donald Trump putting his personal and political interests above the national interest.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Which is true, but also just another example of how we have become inured to the treasonous criminality of the U.S. government. The U.S. has become a rogue and lawless state and its leaders are sending our troops to fight and die while at the same time providing material aid and support to the same forces our troops are fighting. Insanity doesn\u2019t even begin to describe this. Language is inadequate to the task of capturing how truly evil and insane this really is, so let\u2019s just call it what it is \u2014 treason! \u2014 and begin the appropriate proceedings immediately<\/a>.
