Bombing into the submission, slowly but surely.
And then – what?!
x.com/defense_civil25/status…US Homeland Security News (@defense_civil25)🚨Update: President Trump notifies Congress about a ‘new conflict’ with Iran, resetting the clock on the War Powers Act requirements.
War has evolved into a long term, low intensity conflict in which the US will continue to bomb Iran infrequently over the next few months and years to come.
No more negotiations and no peace deal this time.
Endless War version 2.0 has begun. No troops or mass casualties, just bombs and threats for years to come.— https://x.com/defense_civil25/status/2076783683156300227
Threats to Trump, Sen. McConnell’s illness, Lindsey Graham’s acute illness and death, possibly many other similar incidents make a pattern, and they have to be carefully investigated.

Lindsey Graham died at age 71 from a ruptured aorta (aortic dissection), Mitch McConnell is recovering from a fall and pneumonia, and threats to political figures remain under investigation. Because of the timing of these events, many theories have spread online regarding potential coordinated attacks or foul play. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Current information on these incidents:
Sen. Lindsey Graham: Graham died of an aortic dissection. The District of Columbia Medical Examiner’s preliminary findings concluded the rupture was due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, a condition linked to high blood pressure and hardening of the arteries.
Sen. Mitch McConnell: McConnell was hospitalized following a serious fall at his home. He has also been treated for mild pneumonia. His medical team has explicitly ruled out tumors, hemorrhages, strokes, or heart attacks, attributing his fall to his post-polio condition.
Threats to Trump: Law enforcement agencies, including the Secret Service and the FBI, actively monitor and investigate ongoing threats against U.S. leadership.
Investigations: While official authorities investigate credible threats, the spate of health crises and tragedies among senior lawmakers has led to widespread speculation and conspiracy theories on social media. [1, 4]
Official updates regarding political figures and security can be tracked via the FBI or the U.S. Secret Service . For ongoing reporting and verified medical information, consult outlets like PBS News or CNN. [9]
