The ultimate “thoughts and prayers, HOWEVER” moment.
Rep. Carlos Ghoulmenez has no heart.
So, now it IS a war? Somehow, I must’ve missed the congressional declaration of war explicitly required by the US Constitution.
"...but whatever my mango messiah wants, he gets"
Mientras tanto cuantas personas civiles ha matado EU, recordemos la escuela de niñas al inicio del conflicto. Dos de cal por uno de cemento.
“Sorry that men died in a pointless war so we will just send some more…”
That “but” makes you part of a huge problem
But? How about Gimenez go stand alone in Tehran?
Given that Trump keeps repeating that Iran can't have a nuclear weapon would someone please explain how that will be achieved? That piece of the 'plan' is sadly lacking.
So he likes those killed in HIS war. Fucking pussy.
But we need to continue gaslighting that this is a war that needs to be fought, consequences on american families be damned.
Another "WMD" quagmire while the bodies stack up. Worse than Bush.
The fuck
But, we still want to fight a war for no reason with no plan
But WHAT? But I don’t dare criticize the leader of my stupid, violent, self-serving cult? Even when he plunges my country into an inexcusable war of aggression and ignorance? The entire godforsaken GOP is deeply unfit to serve and should relinquish its power over real patriots.
any transfer becomes undignified when trump attends
“The best way to honor these dead is by killing everyone else”
Keep it
I'd like to respect the representative, but he says stuff like this.
They don’t have the ability to walk in another’s shoes! They wouldn’t want to hear “but” as they’re preparing to bury their 19 year old! Demonic F’s 🤬‼️
BUT...??? How can that phrase possibly be followed by 'but...'????
There are no buts… our soldiers are getting killed for Israel while this shithole admin does a nuke deal with the saudis. This is the most despicable administration in AMERICAN HISTORY
My god my heart hurts for these families. They gave up their children and spouses for morons like THIS??! What is wrong with him!?
POS
Dead servicewomen while Hegseth tries to purge them.
He’s basically saying it’s ok for more people to die for Trump’s war of choice. So, people will die for nothing. We HAD guarantees that were successful until Trump destroyed the agreement. Why do Republicans conveniently leave that out of their narrative? They omit reality and lie constantly.
But you’re a huge piece of shit
Fucking monster
And that "but" negated everything he said beforehand. Meaning, he doesn't give two shits about any of the soldiers who have been killed or wounded.
I am so fucking tired of hearing about 'stopping Iran from having a nuclear weapon.' Trump tore up the JCPOA when he came into office and by doing that, set back any possible diplomatic solution to these problems.
But better them than my family, right Congressman?
All of this needless. For nothing. More dead Americans and many more Iranians, because the toddler in chief got bored.
When you say “but,” it erases everything said before that word.
Warmongers, all of them. Throw them into a C-130, fly them over to the middle east and push them out the cargo bay and make them parachute into Iranian territory. Let's see how fast the assholes turn tail and run. I'm tired of old men killing our children for their pockets to be lined by our taxes
Asswipe! There is no but...
He doesn’t have a heart to give. There shouldn’t be a but anything these people are dying for some pedophile distraction.
Shameful rhetoric The world kept a nuclear free Iran for decades without this nonsense. Nobody cannot justify the cost-not the cost of American lives or treasure.
“…but, uh, now that we sent them into a needless war and they died, it’s even more important that we engage in a sunk cost fallacy, whereby more soldiers will die.”
If you want people to sacrifice for the country and keep it safe we should start with congress and this regime first. We'll probably get way more diplomacy, agreements,treaties and respect if we do.
He’s Cuban-born from Florida.
You don’t say “but”
Gimenez (IOW): "But the best way to honor the dead is to keep doing what we're doing and kill more Americans." The "but" means he doesn't give a damn.
But......??????????? You don't offer "condolences" and then say "but". "But" nullifies your "so-called condolences".
it's certainly *not* dignified if Donald is there
Will Felon tRump be wearing his best baseball cap during the dignified transfer again?
An unjust war. cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/07/the-...
ffs you don't "but" a statement like this.
What is wrong with these ppl?
"Casualty of war..." So, he's admitting it's a "war", not a "Military operation"?
I am sick of politicians giving lip service without doing more for these poor families. STOP this war now so there are no more casualties, so we don't have any more families who have to endure this.
The military of the United States of America means nothing to Republican politicians. They are fodder for their political advancement. #Army #Navy #AirForce #Marine #CoastGuard How does that make you feel? You took an Oath to the Constitution not to a political party or to one man.
All military deaths are fine if a Republican is president. Any military death is grounds for removal from office of a Democrat is President.
Stop with the Iran excuses. Your leader is an utter failure.
Wonder if any soldiers etc think to themselves, "fuck am I dying for this shit!"
What a hypocrite trump is. Three for these people are of color and he bashes their races all the time. They gave their lives for the country. He declined to serve because of bone spurs.
Iran did not have and does not have a nuclear weapon. “Never” is a very long time. It’s a bullshit objective that cannot be reached thru military means. As unattainable as “end terrorism”.
I’ve started to view all of the words in a sentence that come before “but” as untruthful. The heart of the statement comes after…
Ouch. 😔
The only “butt” is this situation is that orange DESpotus tRump.
Wars are obscene concoctions of greedy profiteers who lust after blood money at the grisly cost of someone else's brave young child. They & their children enjoy the freedom & benefits provided by our brave young troops, but are too chickenshit to fight. How can they claim to be patriots !!
Never ever ever use a "but" when talking about death of a soldier 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
By "heart" he means his middle finger.
Military humpers eat so much shit for these ghouls
What a disgrace. 4-time draft dodging coward meeting a plane full of patriots who gave their lives for our country in his useless war. Makes me sick.
I hate this guy so much.
You have to have a heart to begin with buddy.
It’s a fucking death cult.
"But you can't stop us". I had no idea he was planning on enlisting! You go, Carlos!
when you put a comma before the word"but", you should ignore everything typed before that comma.
Join the army and die for these AH’s
He has no heart to go out to those families!
THERE IS NO BUT.
Well, we've been doing ok for a couple of decades making sure Iran does not have a nuclear weapon. So how will we know they achieved that now? They "obliterated" the program "for decades" a year ago. But now we have to do more? It's just an unachievable goal that simply justifies anything they do.
But.
Shut your fucking mouth you piece of fucking shit - you’re the reason they’re dead. Keep putting our troops in harms way and supporting this illegal war and America’s done with you, ffs The only thing this man honors is Donald Trump
Same story line as early Iraq
Very on brand. And disrespectful.
Failure? Failure is this entire administration FDT and his racist regime
...but I have my mouth permanently attached to trumps taint.
“But Trump has the right to do whatever he wants”
... "but". Let me tell you where he can put his "but". Straight up his ***. He's not going sell this bs to me.
How does bombing result in “never”? Imperial Japan bombed Pearl Harbour: this did not seem to have deterred the US. Did bombing North Korea deter the Koreans? Vietnam? Iraq insurgency? Afghanistan?
What’s funny is three of those victims of Trump’s idiocy would be snatched up in a heartbeat by his ICE/Gestapo
BUT????
There should be no “but” after that.
Everything before the word but is bullshit.
The crap narrative today amongst MAGA suck-ups is "Trump is keeping Americans safe."
The best way to honor the dead is to have more people die…got it, you ghoul
Is primal scream therapy still a thing? This den of vipers is dancing on the remainder (2-3) of my nerves!
But...their sacrifice keeps the epstein files and the names of the guilty are kept from the public. That's what this is all about.
Fuck you Carlos, there is no qualifier in an expression of sympathy ~
but ... it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. #FVCKtheGOP #VoteThemOut
“but…” and then he collapsed, struck down by the God of Actually Caring.
There is no "but" after that sentence -- unless it's purely performative and empty.
You don’t care about our soldiers or their families or you would be doing everything in your power to STOP THE ILLEGAL WAR
