How as it possible for Iran (with allegedly obliterated air defense systems) to shoot down a $117 Million dollar F-15E? Without the technical aid of sophisticated targeting data from a technically superior global military nation, a nation already identified as providing Iran with tactical data on US positions?
Trump continues to award Russia with benefits from oil profits by lifting sanctions, and declaring a War of Choice that deliberately shut down Hormuz raising the value of Russian petro exports. Russia is aiding its ally Iran, that's not in dispute. Someone is helping Iran kill US troops. When is Benedict Arnold Trump (and Steve, Jared, Pete, Marco, and JD) tried for Treason?
Trump is not America First. His loyalty, it appears, is to another nation. Ask Mr Trump what should happen to traitors.

Instead, the federal government “has to take care of one thing: military protection.” “The United States can't take care of day care. That has to be up to a state,” Trump said at an Easter lunch reception at the White House on Wednesday. “It's not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things. They can do it on a state basis.” For years, advocates have pushed for more child care funding to help lower costs for families, many of whom are spending as much as their rent or mortgage — if not more — on care. The average cost of child care in the United States is now more than $13,000 a year. Until now, it was unclear where Trump stood on child care funding. On the campaign trail, he called child care affordability a “very important issue,” but didn’t say what he’d do about it. Patrick T. Brown, a fellow at the conservative think tank the Ethics and Public Policy Center and a child care expert, told The 19th that politically, “the message that we can’t devote resources to help families struggling with child care or health care costs because we have to spend money on a war of choice strikes me as pretty tone-deaf headed into an election cycle that will doubtless focus on ‘affordability.’” The federal government already spends money on child care through an $8.83 billion block grant that is dispersed to states. But U.S. federal spending on child care still pales in comparison to many other industrialized nations. And while it’s true that states can fund their child care systems above what they get from the federal government — and many have — voters across the political spectrum want to see more federal investment specifically. In a January poll conducted on behalf of the First Five Years Fund, a child care advocacy organization, nearly three out of four voters said federal funding for child care is a good use of tax dollars. ✍️: @chabelicarrazana, economy and child care reporter 📹: @wyntonw, multimedia producer".
