General Thoughts on Conflict

This whole thing is very white of America—using violence to stop a country of color from obtaining weapons when we ourselves built stockpiles bigger than most nations. We see the same tired refrain: “You can’t have that,” coming from a place rooted in white supremacy. Intervene, invade, spend trillions—yet never ask why it’s always their ambition that triggers armed force. Especially when our taxpayer dollars fund it. Wasteful, much? Are we great again yet?

Moving Supplies

Donald Trump’s impulsive tweet prior to the strike didn’t just break protocol—it undermined it completely. A President should not announce military ops on social media and call it official business. It’s immature. Blurting out that “we have full view of their airspace” is a detail most militaries keep hidden. If Iran still has supplies (independent media sources confirm that it does), then the “risk” to us, and the region, hasn’t vanished. Instead, Trump poked the Iranian bear. Now, Trump’s regime is doubling down on a mistake: a reckless attack undermined by a social media post.

Sleeping on BRICS

Remember, I showed you those men holding hands—united to challenge Western dominance and break free from American dependency?

China just said the world does not need the United States, are they wrong? Here’s the kicker: Iran is a BRICS member now. They’ve got an economic Plan B— support from China and Russia. Attacking Iran now? Not only are you poking at the Iranian bear, but you’re also poking directly at BRICS. Essentially, the Trump regime pokes at its own empire. So great!

Praying Los Angeles is Safe

I see you, LA. The world sees us, including Iran. We’ve got the second-largest Iranian population outside of Iran—and these folks are traumatized, too. Seeing your government attack your home country is hard. This isn’t just a conflict overseas—it’s a worry on our American sidewalks. To some degree, having Iranian Americans here makes Los Angeles one of the safest places to be as we await Iran’s response to the U.S.’ attack. I’ll be praying for divine protection over the City of Angels, a proudly diverse American city. Yes, Virginia, LA is for everyone.

Criticism of America Has No Bearing on Love

In a conservative mind, criticizing makes you unpatriotic. It’s that limited Zero‑sum thinking, again. Let’s be clear: just because I question our government doesn’t mean I don’t love this country. As an attorney, I love our potential for justice. I use my skills to hold America accountable for its pledge to foster a “more perfect Union” for future generations. Loving America means making it better—this includes calling out the federal government for its decision to bomb brown folks.

Dangerous Old Men

There’s something about summer heat and septuagenarian conservative men that makes them trigger‑happy. These men, all over 70, are puffing their chests on an international stage. I’m afraid innocent lives will be lost in the process. Real people are due to suffer. This international dick-measuring contest may have human casualties.

Conclusion: Ignoring Black Women Will Lead to America’s Demise

Remember when Vice President Kamala Harris warned Trump would start another war within six months of a comeback? Millions shrugged it off. Now the world fears WWIII. I warned y’all about BRICS coming for the fragile glass empire that is the United States of America. And guess what? You slept on me, too.

The Trump regime slept on BRICS because its policies prioritize white supremacy over global solidarity. Ignoring Black women’s early warnings—it won’t just cost credibility, it’ll cost humanity.

War. What is it good for? Still, absolutely nothing.
