    The Department of Defense was changed to the Department of War, and its official website: www.war.gov has a front page propaganda piece for Operation Epic Fury, the military designation for the war in Iran.

    The supermassive black hole of sheer mendacity here defies description. They seem to be unable to realize that you’re supposed to present a believable lie under which people can operate so that it becomes easier to choose to believe it than not. The Trump regime is composed of people who aren’t even competent fascists, it’s just egotistical chaos somehow still propped up by a 100 years of absurd American success.
