'End of MAGA': Trump's attack on Iran sets off revolt among angry supporters

02/28/26 12:37 PM

A decision by Donald Trump to launch an assault on Iran with the help of Israel has set off a firestorm among longtime supporters who helped propel him to a second term based, in part, on his promise of no foreign military interventions.In the wee hours of the night in the US, jets pounded Tehran, with smoke being seen near the presidential palace.The New York Times reported, “The American-led attack appeared to herald a much broader regional crisis. Iranian news media reported that Iran had targeted at least four U.S. military bases across the Persian Gulf — including in the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, which said they had come under attack."On social media, the response among conservatives was condemnatory with a former House supporter of Trump declaring, “End of MAGA.”Conservative podcaster Meghan McCain wrote, "Remember when every maga personality screamed at the top of their lungs that anyone with the last name McCain was a blood thirsty neocon warmonger who would bomb Iran and had no place in the Republican Party? Yea I didn’t forget that either."Gateway Pundit writer Cassandra MacDonald reposted a post from the late Charlie Kirk who had written, after an earlier attack, “This is insane. Regime change will result in a bloody civil war, killing hundreds of thousands and creating another massive Muslim refugee crisis. Topping (sic) a leader is NEVER as easy you think. It almost always results in further involvement, a civil war, and chaos. Resist this!”Trump ally Andrew Tate was even more blunt, writing, “NOBODY WANTS THIS WAR,” before adding, “War transfers wealth from the working class to the banking class. So does fraud and inflation. The working class man simply cant catch a break and is endlessly wrecked. This is The Matrix - extraction from the populace to feed a machine minded host. Heartless.”A day before the assault, Ex-Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) predicted the attack and added it to her list of Trump betrayals by posting a clip of Trump previously railing against wars and then writing, “This is the Trump I supported, the man who called out the truth about the WMD in Iraq and declared NO MORE FOREIGN WARS. Now for some unknown reason, Trump has joined the neocons and will soon go to war against Iran with the same BS excuses. End of MAGA.”On Saturday ,Taylor Greene added, "I did not campaign for this. I did not donate money for this. I did not vote for this, in elections or Congress. This is heartbreaking and tragic. And how many more innocent will die? What about our own military? This is not what we thought MAGA was supposed to be. Shame!"“Hold our country in prayer right now. Hold our service members and their families in prayer right now. Hold the innocent people of Iran in prayer right now,” lamented Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), an Air Force veteran.One of her followers wrote, “I’m afraid the GOP is going to lose the Senate as well because of this war.”Conservative pundit Matt Lewis chipped in, "I was told that if I didn’t vote for Trump, we’d keep doing these forever wars. And they were right …?""I voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020. You can change your mind when new information is presented to you. I did that well before the 2024 election. When he lied about DeSantis and bragged about Warp Speed, I knew I was out. Now he is starting a very dangerous war. It's not too late to withdraw your support of a President who has betrayed the American people," accused Nicholas J. Stelzner.

'I don't know what I'm doing': SNL pounces on 'scared' Pete Hegseth after Iran assault

03/01/26 1:03 PM

Saturday Night Live was quick to put together a cold open late Saturday with “Weekend Update” co-anchor Colin Jost reprising his angry Pete Hegseth impersonation, where he first admitted he was pumped about “Operation Epic Fury,” including having it tattooed on his knuckles — and then admitting he was over his head.With James Austin Johnson’s Donald Trump first announcing, “It’s me, Donald Trump, FIFA Peace Prize winner and Nobel Peace Prize taker, remember that?” he then continued, ”I launched this attack after me and my board of peace ... we were bored of peace. A little wordplay there, did you catch it?”“As we all know, Iran has been two weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon for like the last 15 years or something. So we had to act now, and we’re doing war,” he added.After more Trump rambling he introduced Jost’s Hegseth as "the man I’m going to blame [the bombing attack] on when it doesn’t work.”“What’s up, dillweeds?” Jost shouted. “They asked for someone to volunteer to receive his half-baked operation, and I didn’t walk — I ran. President Trump called me at two in the morning, and you know, I was awake and sober AF.”After more hyped up shouting he admitted, “I am scared, and I don’t know what I’m doing. When [Trump] said we were going to blow up the leader of Iran, I thought he was kidding.”“Bottom line, all of you should be thanking us. We took out a horrendous, horrible leader who was oppressing his own people—” he continued whch led Johnson’s Trump to interject, “But don’t get any ideas.” - YouTube youtu.be

'Next question, please': Israeli spokesperson blows off Iranian schoolgirl deaths

03/01/26 3:17 PM

An Israeli spokesperson dismissed the alleged deaths of Iranian schoolgirls and the claim that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was a war criminal.During a press conference near rubble in Tel Aviv on Sunday, reporter Secunder Kermani of Britain's Channel 4 News acknowledged that "Khomeini, the Iranian regime, have clearly done terrible things, particularly to their own people.""But your Prime Minister is a wanted war criminal. You don't have the moral high ground here at all," he said. "This is a war crime!" the Israeli spokesperson shouted. "This is a war crime! Targeting civilians, targeting elderly women, killing, murdering her caregiver from the Philippines.""What about the hundred or so schoolgirls in Iran that are being killed in a strike at that?" Kermani asked. "Yes, next question, please," the spokesperson replied. "Let's allow others."

'Not his job': Lindsey Graham angrily snaps about whether Trump 'has a plan' in Iran

03/01/26 4:26 PM

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) rejected critics who claim "you break it, you own it" after President Donald Trump ordered strikes that killed Iran's supreme leader."The new Iran, whatever it is, whether it's a cleric or a representative democracy, our goal is to make sure it cannot become, again, the largest state sponsor of terrorism," Graham told NBC's Kristen Welker on Sunday. "That's a win for us.""But is there a plan to make sure that happens, Senator?" Welker wondered. "Is there a plan? Does the president have a plan to guarantee that that happens?""No, it's not his job or my job to do this!" Graham snapped. "How many times do I have to tell you? Our job is to make sure Iran is no longer the largest state sponsor of terrorism to help the people reconstruct a new government, no boots on the ground.""We don't own, you know, this idea, you break it, you own it," he continued. "I don't buy that one bit. It's in America's interest to make sure the Ayatollah is dead. He's dead. It's in America's interest to make sure that Iran can no longer be the largest state-sponsored terrorism. We're close.""I'm going to focus on having Iran off the map as the largest state sponsor of terrorism and see if we can build a new mid-east," he added.

'Sacrificed by the pedos': Trump faces backlash over US service member deaths

03/01/26 3:50 PM

President Donald Trump faced backlash after at least three U.S. service members were killed following the strikes he ordered on Iran over the weekend.On Sunday, U.S. Central Command announced that three members of the armed forces had been killed in action during Operation Epic Fury."Several others sustained minor shrapnel injuries and concussions — and are in the process of being returned to duty. Major combat operations continue, and our response effort is ongoing," CENTCOM said in a statement. "The situation is fluid, so out of respect for the families, we will withhold additional information, including the identities of our fallen warriors, until 24 hours after next of kin have been notified."The announcement was met with prayers and criticism."Sacrificed by the pedos of Washington to protect Tel Aviv while Israelis are singing and dancing in bomb shelters. What a sad ending," Hadi Nasrallah lamented."3 Americans are now KIA in Trump's regime change war of choice," Breaking Points host Saagar Enjeti wrote."RIP. Praying for their families," Lincoln Project's Rick Wilson commented. "I am reminded, apropos of nothing, that one of (if not the first) casualties of Operation Iraqi Freedom was a young Marine rifleman named Jose Gutierrez. He was a Guatemalan immigrant who was granted American citizenship after he died fighting for our country.""Donald Trump has more American blood on his hands, having helped cause the unnecessary deaths of these three soldiers with his illegal, unprovoked, unnecessary war on Iran," Mehdi Hasan said.

'Stay off social media when you're drunk': Nancy Mace called out over Khamenei death post

03/01/26 4:06 PM

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) set off a war of words on X late Saturday when she attempted to troll two of her colleagues in the House, both of whom are Muslims.Reacting to news that Iran’s Supreme Commander Ali Hosseini Khamenei was pronounced dead after a surprise US attack on his country, Mace posted a link to the Fox News report and wrote, “My heart goes out to Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib tonight. Sending them thoughts and prayers.”That led Rep. Omar, a frequent target of conservatives because of her faith, to fire back at the South Carolina lawmaker who has been the subject of accusations from former staffers of excessive drinking.“I hope you aren’t drunk and took your staff’s advice, Rashida and I don’t know this man and feel confident he didn’t care about us. Please restrain from drinking too much as you have been warned from your staff and stay off social media when you are drunk,” she advised.She added, “I pray in his holy month you find peace and respect for yourself.”Mace’s post drew other criticisms, with journalist Aaron Rupar responding, “Absolutely disgraceful. You should be ashamed of yourself.”“That is just disgusting,” replied Democratic strategist Leslie Marshall.
