A very timely piece of writing- I have no idea how you could be losing subscribers, makes no sense your writing is spot on.

Thanks for the kind words. My guess is that because I write about sex education, I have tons of MAGA subscribers. I certainly get my share of scary hate mail that my writer friends do not. I lose folks every time I write about politics and gain them when I write about sex education.

That can’t be a coincidence. But I will starve before I change what I write.

Well done, Carlyn! You've covered every aspect. This is the kind of reporting that should receive wide coverage before a large audience. Now I understand why Congress has been happy to relinquish its constitutional power to declare war. Shall we call this one Operation Iraqi Freedom 2.0?

Andrew are you Gen-X? I keep trying to explain to my younger friends why we are so traumatized. We grew up with this nonsense.

Right, we’ve seen it before. If they’d read posts like this latest of yours, they’d begin to see the light.

It’s unbelievable how Trump who came to the White House as a man of peace, now is becoming a hawk on testosterone. He has been cursing Bush, Obama, and Biden for sponsoring wars. The tables are turned now, and MAGA is still applauding him. Do they really want to go and fight in Iran for America 🇺🇸 first?

Lincoln Steffens applauds. And so it is with even darker overtones from the Dorks in control.

Have you ever thought of offering your services as a speech writer? For example, to Eliabeth Warren.

PS: Trump creates chaos in many ways, but I don't think sewing is one of them. ,-)

Just think, when AI writes all our articles and speeches...no more typos. You may miss mine ;)

Who is winning: feeedom and morality and those who abhor terrorism and regimes that stifle free thought!

Winning are those who cherish Equal rights for all humans regardless of sex, race or identify

Winning the most are those who support the Future of humanity to live in dignity

Losers are: those who support terrorism , those who refuse as the Bible states to choose life , those who believe woman are property and should be covered from head to toe

Losers are the forces of darkness

It’s so clear I do not know how you miss it.

Could you write your articles in a country like Iran - NO , you would be tortured and in jail

I hope you see the light

I am not sure how your comments relates to who profits from this war? And even though US intelligence has found no nuclear weapons in Iran, they are still very dangerous. But that’s a discussion to have when the subject is broached.
