It worked. Trump has changed the subject.

It worked. Trump has changed the subject: ‘ Breaking news: U.S. says it struck 16 Iranian mine-laying vessels near oil route’ https://www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03/10/world/iran-war-trump-us-israel?campaign_id=60&emc=edit_na_20260310&instance_id=172307&nl=breaking-news&reg I do not mean to imply that news of Trump’s disastrous Iran Adventure is not newsworthy. I ask here, that we do not forget what the conversation was before Iran -   *New York Times 2/3/26* ‘’You need to pay attention to the guns ICE agents are pointing at all of us. You also need to pay attention to everything happening around the guns. Just before Jonathan Ross, an ICE agent, pulled the gun that he discharged into Good’s S.U.V., he was shooting video of the incident on his cellphone. The gun and the phone are both weapons — one a tool for violence and the other a tool of control.’’ https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/03/opinion/ice-surveillance-protesters.html?campaign_id=39&emc...
