The Morning Report — 3/5/26

LUMPYTORP.jpg

Good morning kids. While the military campaign continues over and around Iran —
pretty amazing that we sank an enemy warship with a torpedo fired from a submarine for the first time since the end of World War 2! —the question is what is the ultimate goal and what will it take to achieve it. My understanding is the complete dismantling of the Iranian regime's ability to produce nuclear weapons and the ability to deploy them, i.e. their missile production and firing capabilities. But beyond bombing infrastructure, the only way to ensure that is indeed regime change. I have no problem with that since it was Iran that declared and has been at war with the United States of America since the removal of the Shah and the installation of the current Islamic government in 1979. And the Ayatollahs have openly demonstrated that "Death to America" is not merely a slogan but the nation's foreign policy goal and raison d'être.

President Trump understands this and so now he and his team are pushing for regime removal, both anticipating that the air campaign will empower the citizenry to achieve that goal? Once removed who or what moves in to fill the void? Now that Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khameini has gone to his eternal reward of 72 Helen Thomases. . .


The first attempt the surviving rulers of the Islamic Republic of Iran made to replace their fallen supreme leader, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, didn’t quite go as planned. Fox News reported Tuesday that “Israeli forces struck an Iranian Supreme Council gathering on Tuesday as the group was meeting to choose a successor to the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.” According to Fox News’ Trey Yingst, “They just targeted the meeting in Tehran where what’s left of the leadership was gathering to choose a new Supreme Leader.”

The remaining high command quickly regrouped, however. Also on Tuesday, Iran International reported that “Iran’s clerical body, the Assembly of Experts, has elected Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of the late Ali Khamenei, as the Islamic Republic’s new Supreme Leader, according to his informed sources who spoke to Iran International on condition of anonymity.

”Dr. Eric Mandel of the Middle East Political and Information Network (MEPIN) observed that Mojtaba Khamenei is “widely viewed as one of the architects of the regime’s repression.” Iran analyst Arash Azizi added that the new supreme leader “has been a bete noire of democratic movements at least since 2009 when he was rumored to have helped orchestrate the repression.

Terrific. The US Navy can return to port and the Air Force can stand down. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED?! This is not regime change and certainly if we accept this outcome, the "new" government will clean up the rubble and immediately begin reconstituting its nuclear weapons and missile programs as well as continue slaughtering anyone who they even suspect of daring to object.


Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has stated in no uncertain terms. . .

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth signaled prolonged U.S. military involvement in Iran on Wednesday morning, stating a surge of forces is “accelerating, not decelerating. . . “As President Trump said, more and larger waves are coming. We are just getting started,” Hegseth said. “We are accelerating, not decelerating. Iran’s capabilities are evaporating by the hour, while American strength grows fiercer, smarter and utterly dominant. More bombers and more fighters are arriving.” “To our steadfast partner, Israel: Your mission is being executed with unmatched skill and iron determination,” he added. “Fighting shoulder-to-shoulder with such a capable ally is a true force multiplier and a breath of fresh air. We salute your courage and your contribution — four days in we have only just begun to fight.”

On the one hand, it's quite satisfying that once again the unlikely voice of sanity from the Left flank is none other than John Fetterman!

“Can’t we just get tired of — are we tired of being wrong, consistently, on the region?” Fetterman also stated that people in the party don’t want to be seen as agreeing with President Donald Trump.

Then again, this statement from globalist and Bushie Condoleeza Rice does not inspire confidence. If she of all people considering her pedigree is cheering on President Trump, then that kind of makes me gulp a bit.

“If you can render Iran essentially incapable of military action against us and against our allies thats worthy, and I think what they’re trying to do is to neuter Iran as a military power in the region,” she said.

Things that make you go hmmm. . .

Meanwhile back at home, speaking of regime change, Just like seeing Khameini eat a J-Dam, it was quite enjoyable watching Jasmine Crockett, the equivalent of a urine-soaked lice-infested whorehouse mattress go down in flames in her insane senatorial bid.

Frederick Haynes III, the senior pastor of Friendship-West Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas, secured the Democratic nomination for the seat Crockett will vacate in January 2027 due to her decision to mount her ultimately unsuccessful campaign for the Senate, according to The Associated Press. During the diatribe he unleashed the Sunday following the Sept. 10, 2025, assassination of Kirk, Haynes claimed that Kirk’s positions were “rooted in white supremacy.”

To paraphrase the immortal lyrics of The Who, Meet the new Democrat, same as the old Democrat. Feh.


Have a great day!
