As Jonathan V. Last notes,

"Holy Week began with a 7:26 a.m. Truth Social post from our commander-in-chief."

Then Last points to Trump's statement threatening to blow up electric plants, oil wells, Kharg Island, and possibly all desalinizaton plants.

"Trump says he will order the U.S. military to commit war crimes against Iran if the strait is not reopened."

"Trump just posted [a day ago] a letter from Franklin Graham assuring him that says 'you commented to the media that you might not be heaven bound. Maybe you responded in jest, but it is an important issue to know for certain that your soul is secure and will spend eternity in the presence of God.'"

Noting that Secretary of War Hegseth prayed publicly at the Pentagon last week for "overwhelming violence" in Trump's war against Iran, Greg Sargent writes,

"The appointed leader of the world’s most powerful military regularly speaks about his capacity to rain terror and death on the enemy with an undisguised relish that should unsettle us all."

Pete Hegseth Just Revealed the Real Roots of His Sadism and Rage
