And he is shuffling around in shoes that are obviously 4 or 5 sizes too big because he' afraid to offend the idiot that gave them to him.
The nation would be better off if the Senate just confirmed random members of a grand jury pool for the Cabinet.

Because it's Israel's strategy.
Deplete Iran's conventional arsenal and nuclear program till it cannot threaten Israel/the Middle East/America's Oil and Gas Interests. Kill the regime political and military strategists/scientists/leaders. Set Iran's "Death to America/Israel" campaign back decades.
It's not a good strategy.

He's one of the few democratic voices saying that what's going on is a 5-alarm fire. 🔥There are others, I know, but as a party, where is the unified voice of outrage?
