Trump launched Operation Forget Epstein to avoid responsibility for his role as a child sex predator. He knows he’s responsible for their deaths.

IMHO--Trump had No plan to evacuate US citizens because I think Trump really thought he could bomb Iran and take it over like he has done and is doing in Venezuelan

Americans criticize US state department, with one person saying she felt ‘betrayed’ and treated like ‘an afterthought’

US citizens living in the Middle East say they’re “angry” at the US state department, criticising the Trump administration for having no “backup plan” to help them leave the region in the hours and days after the start of the US-Israel war on Iran.

One person, whose family voted for Trump for his anti-war stance, said she felt “betrayed” and what she perceived as the treatment of US citizens as “an afterthought”.

A state department official said: “Through the department’s Task Force, we have directly provided security guidance and travel assistance to about 32,000 impacted Americans. Most ​Americans who have ​requested assistance have ⁠declined seats when offered, opting to remain in [the] country or take commercial flight options.”

Here are some of the people who contacted us to share their experiences.
