This is part of why I think "evacuate Tehran" is just bluster. What really happened isn't even about Iran, it's that Trump did his usual thing at G7 but nobody said "sir yes sir" to it so he got mad and left. Then, being a grossly irresponsible toxic manchild, he blew off steam by threatening a war.
Donald Trump arrived in Canada and demanded that Russia be admitted into the G7. He falsely claimed Canada had Russia kicked out.
He refused to work out a deal with allies on the Middle East crisis and he left town before President Zelensky showed up.
Surprised?

Trump: "You're buying a crippled product from us because we just don't trust you."
At least he is giving his customers full disclosure. After being told that, I would be looking at more reliable alternatives from Europe.

Canada is slashing its order of F-35 fighters from 88 to not more than 32. It will re-invest the billions saved to purchase 60 or more Swedish Saab Gripen E/F-39's. The USA is no longer a trustworthy ally. Simply.

Trump's white supremacist government is trying to erase all the accomplishments of non-white Americans from the history books. This is not normal!
The Army just deleted without explanation its page about the 442nd “GO FOR BROKE” infantry regiment—the Japanese American WW2 unit that is the most decorated in US military history.

Our system of laws depends on people — lawyers — taking adversarial positions in court, including against the government. Indeed, especially against the government! It’s central to the guarantee of freedom. The attack on law firms and lawyers at civic groups is an attack on all of our freedoms.
