The Iranian regime's dead end delusions
of survival must collapse

The potential appointment of Mojtaba Khamenei is proving what Israel has long known: It has no intention of ever abandoning its destructive doctrine: Death to America, and death to Israel. Mojtaba Khamenei, the second-eldest son of former Iranian supreme leader Ali Khamenei, is reportedly set to succeed his slain father as Iran’s next supreme leader, as the Islamic Republic moves to preserve continuity while battling Israel and the United States. He has long been considered his father’s chosen heir apparent. He is reported to have formed close ties with the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) and is thought to have gained increasing control over the regime’s decision-making

Perhaps we forgot what it’s like when politicians act on their promises.
Perhaps our enemies forgot as well.
For decades, American presidents — Democratic and Republican — have said the theocratic dictatorship in Iran cannot have nuclear weapons. For decades, those same administrations were strung along by the ayatollahs. American negotiators — like their European counterparts — sat through years of negotiations. And every time, the revolutionary government in Iran got closer to the bomb. Well, not this time.

State Rep. James Talarico said just that on Tuesday night — "A little bit of hope is a dangerous thing" — and he meant it as a call to action, a summons to the faithful. But the line lingers in the Texas air for a different reason. Democrats are about to invest a great deal of time, money and, yes, hope in the notion that a young state legislator from Round Rock is the man who will break a nearly four-decade winless drought for his party in the Lone Star State.
Hope can animate. It can also delude.
“When riots broke out recently at a prison in Cuba’s Ciego de Avila province, the videos that circulated showed something remarkable,” reports Daniel Allott at The Hill: “Inmates were shouting, ‘Long live Trump!’ ”
Along with a growing dissident movement, this “marks a significant psychological shift inside a nation long defined by resistance to US intervention.” Independent journalist Camila Acosta reports many Cubans “long ago” stopped believing the US embargo was behind “every shortage, every blackout, every empty pharmacy shelf.”
Notes Allot: “When Cubans protest — and there have been hundreds of demonstrations since July 2021 — they do not chant ‘Down with the embargo.’ They chant ‘Down with [President Miguel] Díaz-Canel.’
Gavin Newsom endorsed the lie Tuesday that Israel is an “apartheid” state — a damning sign of where the Democratic Party is headed, and how far it’s already sunk.
At an event promoting his new book, the California governor said Israel’s critics are “appropriately” calling it an “apartheid” state — i.e., a knockoff of South Africa’s old segregationist regime.
This is a lie — one so egregious that many deem it a form of antisemitism.
Apartheid South Africa denied blacks the vote and forced them to endure separate hospitals, separate schools, and even separate bathrooms.
Arabs, 20% of Israel’s population, vote and serve in the government and even the military; there is no segregation
The beleaguered Iranian regime, with very few international allies, has been counting on Moscow's support amid the ongoing US-Israeli strikes, but so far it has been left deeply disappointed. Just hours after Israeli and US bombs started hitting Tehran on Saturday, Russia came out with a blunt statement, with the country's permanent representative to the UN, Vassily Nebenzia, calling it an "unprovoked act of armed aggression against a sovereign and independent UN member state."
Moscow is one of Tehran's few but staunchest allies, and a possible collapse of the Iranian regime could be a blow for its geopolitical and economic interests. Then why has it not come to Tehran's rescue?
A major talking point among Democrats and their media handmaidens is that President Trump launched a “war of choice” against Iran.
Given American casualties and the earth-rattling impact, the criticism could be a powerful political argument in the midterm elections — if it’s true.
But it’s not true.
In fact, we now can be certain that the war on Iran is not a war of choice.
It is instead a war of American self-defense and maybe even a war of survival for Western civilization and Israel.
Retired NFL quarterback and Tim Tebow Foundation founder Tim Tebow emphasizes the need for increased resources to combat child abuse and exploitation on "The Ingraham Angle." The former Heisman Trophy winner testified at a House Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on child trafficking on Tuesday.
LAURA INGRAHAM, FOX NEWS: Turns out we don't have to travel to Iran to see heartbreaking violations of human rights. It's happening right here in the United States every day, at the evil hands of cartels, criminal gangs and other twisted freaks. And the targets range from toddlers to teens.

The airstrike on the Tehran residence of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — one of the opening salvos of the current US-Israeli war with Iran — killed the 86-year-old supreme leader together with large parts of the Iranian command structure.
Iran has yet to decide on the next leader.
Currently, however, the power vacuum appears to be filled by Iran's top national security official Ali Larijani, reportedly one of the few people trusted by Khamenei to ensure the regime's survival in case of the ayatollah's death. Some 24 hours after the Tehran strike, Larijani took to national television and social media to decry the US and Israel
The joint United States and Israeli strikes on Feb. 28, 2026, did more than destroy military infrastructure. They decapitated the ideological command center of a regime that has spent four decades promising Israel’s annihilation and financing America’s enemies. The death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei marks the most consequential blow to state-sponsored terror in modern history.
It revives a question Jewish thinkers have wrestled with for centuries: When does confronting evil move from a strategic option to a moral obligation?

Trump’s Way of War
6 replies
War is the use of arms to settle differences—tribal, political, religious, cultural, and material—between organized groups. It is unchanging. The general laws of armed conflict stays immutable, given the constancy of human nature. However, the manner in which war is conducted remains fluid. New weapons, tactics, and strategies elicit counterresponses in an endless cycle of tensions between defensive and offensive superiority. That said, has President Trump introduced a novel way of waging Western war against America’s foreign enemies?
House Speaker Mike Johnson said the U.S. strike on Iran was a defensive operation designed to prevent “staggering losses” to American troops and assets, arguing that waiting for Iran to strike first would have resulted in devastating casualties.
Johnson spoke to reporters at the Capitol on Monday, where he emphasized that the most critical point of the operation was that it was defensive in nature.
“Israel was determined to act in their own defense here, with or without American support,” he said. “Israel faced what they deemed to be an existential threat. Iran was building missiles at a radical, and at a rapid clip

President Donald Trump on Thursday said Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin will replace Kristi Noem as Department of Homeland Security secretary. Trump made the announcement on social media Thursday afternoon saying he was "pleased to announce that the Highly Respected United States Senator from the Great State of Oklahoma, Markwayne Mullin, will become the United States Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS), effective March 31, 2026." "The current Secretary, Kristi Noem, who has served us well, and has had numerous and spectacular results (especially on the Border!), will be moving to be Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas, our new
Among the kingmakers, queenmakers, and they/themmakers of the far left is a stubborn contingent that clings to the belief that the cure for what ails the nation’s self-styled “progressives” has been right there among them for several years now, and that his name is Pete Buttigieg.
The failed transportation secretary has the gift of being acceptable to both the Democrat Party’s leftist establishment and power-to-the-people-right-on-let’s-burn-the-house-down wing, and while there really isn’t a dime’s worth of difference ideologically between the two factions, that’s still an unusual accomplishment.
Yet Pete is not polling all that well,

Wednesday on MS NOW’s “The Briefing,” former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-TX) said “Texas will save the country” when Texas State Representative James Talarico (D) wins the Senate seat in November.
O’Rourke said, “When James Talarico wins in November, he will be the 51st vote in the US Senate. Texas will save the country.”
He added, “I mean, Trump would not intervene in this way unless he was panicked. He understands that if Talarico wins, if he is the 51st vote in the U.S. Senate, then there’s going to be a check on Trump’s criminality. There’s going to be consequences for his corruption. There’s going to be the possibility of free and fair
The Man Who Loves To Tax

The cranky Vermont senator who believes billionaires should be abolished wants to legislate them out of existence. It’s too bad that he doesn’t understand that one billionaire is more valuable than a thousand Bernie Sanders.
“Billionaires should not exist,” Sanders, who identifies as a socialist, raged in 2019 during his previous attempt to hit the wealthy with an additional tax that punished them for their success.
That effort, the New York Times reported, was “particularly aggressive in how it would erode the fortunes of billionaires” and “would cut in half the wealth of the typical billionaire after 15 years,

President Trump cast Tucker Carlson out of his Make America Great Again movement following the conservative talking head’s loud criticism of the US and Israeli assault on Iran.
“Tucker has lost his way,” the commander-in-chief told ABC News’ Jonathan Karl on Thursday. “I knew that a long time ago, and he’s not MAGA. MAGA is saving our country. MAGA is making our country great again. MAGA is America first, and Tucker is none of those things. And Tucker is really not smart enough to understand that.”
The comments came after Carlson recently called the strikes on Iran “absolutely disgusting and evil.”

You’ll be sorry. That was the warning from Iran to the U.S. on Thursday as it responded to the torpedoing of an Iranian warship in the Indian Ocean, with a Muslim leader adding a call for “Trump’s blood.”
As Breitbart News reported, the U.S. Navy sank the Iranian frigate IRIS Dena Tuesday night in the Indian Ocean which Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has since decried as “an atrocity at sea.”

President Trump announced Thursday that Senator Markwayne Mullin (R., Okla.) will replace Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary.
The announcement comes after Noem struggled to stand up to a public grilling by members of the Senate Judiciary Committee who pressed the former South Dakota governor on Tuesday about a $220 million ad campaign contract that was subcontracted to one of her longtime allies. Trump was furious at Noem for insisting during the hearing that he had personally approved the contract and began floating Mullin’s name as a potential replacement, National Review first reported early Thursday.
Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, whether driven by genuine Nazi-level antisemitism or sheer opportunism, have escalated their antisemitic and anti-religious rhetoric. They’ve now gone after Chabad, a Jewish outreach movement that seeks to help all Jews return to the fold through core values. The Tsar’s secret police, who wrote one of the most damaging hoaxes ever—The Protocols of the Elders of Zion—would be proud of these new American descendants.
To appreciate just how evil this dastardly duo is, you need to know a little about Chabad. It began 250 years ago in the shtetls of Russia, places where Jews were frequently persecuted

At times, you could be forgiven for having thought that Kristi Noem wanted to be a uniformed Department of Homeland Security officer rather than the secretary of the department.
Now, the cabinet member most inclined to glamour shots out in the field is going to have to go back to wearing civilian clothes.
For all his trademark firings during “The Apprentice” and the rapid turnover of his first term, President Trump has been loath to oust top officials this time around.
Noem is the exception, and she’s earned the dubious distinction.
Incompetent and preposterously self-promoting,

Betrayal in Operation Epic Fury Is Absolutely Wild 15 replies
Does being an European "ally" of America even mean anything anymore? That's a valid question after several NATO nations not only initially denied the use of their military bases during Operation Epic Fury, the ongoing attack on Iran, but also offered tacit support for the Islamic regime. Perhaps the most public betrayal came from Spain, whose left-wing prime minister claimed the United States was violating "international law."Given Spain's history over the last century or so, it wasn't exactly surprising that they'd take the side of Islamic fascists over the country that pays for their defense.
The New York Times sulkily refuses to give President Trump any credit for eliminating the power structure of an authoritarian, murderous Islamic regime working hard to build a nuclear weapon, one that’s bedeviled America, Israel, and the Western world by supporting terror attacks for over 40 years. The latest example of the paper’s petulance ran on Wednesday’s front page, a “news analysis” by Tyler Pager: “Initiating War Is Legacy Risk For President.” Pager got off to a dismal start, with a dense parade of Iran negatives. Six American service members were killed, and U.S. military jets were shot out of the sky. Investors are bracing for market
