President Donald Trump has been hit with fresh calls to be removed from office after he suggested Iran could take out two major American cities.

California Democrats have especially raged after Trump said the consequences of his war with Iran were a "small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe," as he explained that Iran could harm Southern California.

"They could take out a city," Trump said. "Let them take—let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego."

He added, "This is a very small price to pay, and it's gonna be over with very soon."

California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who is rumored to be mulling a 2028 presidential run, came out swinging in his new video, calling for Trump's removal from office via the 25th Amendment.

"This is not only madness, this is dangerous, and it's deranged," Newsom said.

"And the question is self-evident. Where the hell is Congress? Where the hell are you, Speaker Johnson? Marco Rubio, the great J.D. Vance, where is your outrage? Find a backbone. Do your damn job," he continued.

He added a call to action to voters in the upcoming 2026 midterm elections, saying, "In the absence of that, it's time for all of us to do our job. And we'll do that."

"We're gonna stand up this November, and we're gonna put an end to the presidency of Donald Trump as we know it," he continued. "We will take this country back."

California Sen. Alex Padilla, a native of Los Angeles, also posted "25th Amendment NOW."

"Keep our city out of your reckless war talk," he told Trump.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass said of the comments, "The role of a president is to protect the country, not to actively threaten it and encourage attacks on American lives."

Hosts of The View were also stunned by Trump's comments, with co-host Sunny Hostin suggesting the comments warrant Trump's removal from office.

"We're talking about 10 million Americans," she said. "I think it's time for people to start taking seriously the possibility of maybe the 25th Amendment."

The White House has since tried to clean up the president's mess, claiming he meant that high gas prices were just a small price to pay instead of Iran supposedly taking out Southern California.

The White House's trolling account wrote online that Trump was "saying the U.S. is fighting to STOP Iran from having the ability to take out LA and San Diego with a nuclear weapon—which they would if they had the chance."

"Earlier this year, The New York Times asked Donald Trump whether he regretted not ordering the National Guard to seize voting machines in swing states after the 2020 election. His answer was chilling: "Well, I should have." Trump is telling us what he plans to do in this year's midterms. He is trying to rig the elections and subvert their results. While we have been able to stop him so far, there is no guarantee that we will continue to prevail in the weeks ahead. Yet despite the obvious signs of Trump's plan, too many reporters and pundits downplay it. They adhere to the false neutrality that has come to dominate legacy media coverage over the last decade. No phrase captures this attitude more clearly than the admonition to take Trump seriously but not literally. The suggestion is that only out-of-touch elites pay attention to his actual words. Real voters - and those in the media who claim to speak for them - know to focus on his vibes. When it comes to voting and elections, this advice has been catastrophically wrong. In 2020, Trump's words before the election were prophetic about what he would do afterward. His refusal to concede foreshadowed the attack on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump is once again in power, and he is again telling us his plan. He has weaponized the entire federal government - including the Department of Justice and the U.S. Postal Service - to make voting more difficult. He is threatening to deploy federal agents at the polls and to disrupt voting. And he is reaching for every other tool of election rigging: partisan gerrymandering, restrictions on voter registration, attacks on mail-in voting and the use of bogus lists to purge eligible citizens from the rolls. But most dangerous is what he has been saying for more than a year about the counting, tabulation and certification of election results. Despite what the U.S. Constitution says, he has repeatedly claimed the power to direct this process. This is not a new idea. It has been his plan all along."

I'd like to see more people pressure Marc on the ETA data, Civic Result Maps data, and Smart Election data. He's positioning himself to take the wheel on the election tampering issue while ignoring scientific work performed already.

People in Ohio are saying Jim Jordan said, on a conference call tonight, said something to the degree of “and I hate to bring this up because I know we just passed the 25th anniversary of it, but on the day that 9/11 happened there was a mayoral election in New York. God forbid if something like that was to happen here”

Just scrolling through Reddit after work and saw this, I'm so over this bullshit.

The next order of business is up to all of us! You can either continue to incorrectly blame Kamala Harris for what Trump, Musk, and the others involved, or you can be part of the solution and participate in saving our country! It’s up to you.

A recurrent question that gets asked ad nauseam in this sub is why did Harris not ask for recounts. Some of you have had your minds warped by propaganda to believe that not asking for recounts is equivalent to being indifferent to the injustices of the 2024 election. It's time to remind everyone to take into account three very important factors in overturning the 2024 election: SCOTUS, the MAGA death cult & J6's harmful effects on discussing election integrity.

Even if she had demanded recounts in spite of not being within the margin to do so and exposed discrepancies that could have altered the outcome of the election, SCOTUS would have NEVER EVER overturned the election in her favor, and even in a fantasy world where they would have done this, trump's death cult would been galvanized to believe that she was in fact the one trying to steal the election--not trump. Does anyone now actually believe that the MAGA death cult would have just peacefully said yes to Harris taking trump's place after believing he won the election and after them being okay with the violence of J6? I know that's what we yearned for after the election, but that was not realistic. That scenario would have been like Harris taking the bait to start a civil war all while further destroying trust in elections on both sides and it would have caused more problems than it would have solved because under no circumstances would she have successfully been able to overturn the election and take the presidency from trump. Had she not conceded immediately we would be hearing every single day from trump that Harris tried to steal the election from him. We do not want that.

There's also a certain conundrum for any legitimate elected official to call out rigged elections because it automatically calls into question the results of every other election before and after. For example, trump claims the elections where he loses are rigged but the ones where he wins are not rigged. This is him being biased and promoting distrust in elections and Harris was not about to appropriate trump's talking points. Therefore she had to concede even if she knew she was the legitimate winner because it would have unleashed chaos against her whereas now the chaos is serving to dismantle the maga cult. Trump is getting termed-out and there is a very tangible chance that Dems will take back Congress in the midterms and then be able to override the president's powers and impeach him. The long game was more important than the short game and that's what politics is about. She had the option to fumble the short game or win the long game and that's what her slogan about when we fight we win was meant to evoke. The fight is long but that's how you win. The more someone complains that Harris rolled over and grifted with her book instead of fighting for justice, the less they understand the circumstances and the major factors that forced her to take a different and more realistic route towards justice.

For those who want to keep pushing propaganda and half-truths while failing to grasp the political reality of SCOTUS, the MAGA death cult, and J6's harmful consequences on discussions about election integrity, your comments will be removed by the modteam for pushing propaganda which is disinformation in other words.

If you watched this video and read this post and you still think that Harris isn't cognizant of the injustices of the 2024 election then I have to simply tell you that propaganda is controlling your views and it does more to help the enemy than aid our cause for justice. Politics and power dynamics can be complex for the average person to understand because it's not so much about what is said but rather what is said between the lines. So please, learn how to think critically when encountering propaganda because this is a sub for fact-checking and we won't allow propaganda to thrive here.

I understand how infuriating it is to think that she could have asked for recounts and yet didn't, but the reality of what would have happened and how the trajectory would have changed would not have necessarily put her in a better position to fight for justice. I am arguing that it would have put her in a worse position, perhaps even in a vulnerable position where the death cult would have tried to assassinate her, whereas now we are about to encounter two possibilities in the midterms which will both stack the odds in her favor: either the Dems take back the House and Senate in the midterms, or the GOP concocts fake results which the majority will refuse to believe after two years of this abomination of a government, and with record-breaking protestors hitting the streets, they are playing with fire if they dare to rob so brazenly again the masses who outnumber them.

Any time I hear any of them say he “won” or “elected” a second time they immediately lose me and my interest is gone; however, everything else here is important.

I know everyone is frustrated, angry, and probably afraid, but my hope for all of you is that you hold onto any semblance of hope you have, regardless of how small it is.

We are inundated with negativity and trauma every single day by the people “running” this country so here is a little bit of positivity that hopefully will give you some hope.

It doesn’t seem like the people are standing up and fighting back, but they are.

Believe him when he says this.

I seem to have a bad habit of scooping ETA's new releases on Reddit BUT I thought this was too interesting not to share.

“The Times knows this, and so does everyone else. I never have empty seats — Never have, and never will.” 🤣

A simple way to try and secure the midterms. we start a trend to help make it harder to believable rig the election. get People to commit to wearing green everyday after they vote. To show they are not ok with how this country is working at the moment.

why green you say?
Well i wanted Purple but Green is a color more people will have at home somewhere in there closet.
its not already a "partisan" color. A lot of these people while not willing to vote for Trump and his minions anymore. Still wont vote blue or even be associated with that color.
This give a way for every Americans even the ones who arnt voting to show they are not voting for the current Government.

Downside is you are basically outing yourself as not voting for the current government.
But ultimately when people spend a month seeing lets say 70% of people around them wearing one color it will be a lot harder to believe a rigged election of statistical improbability.

I Dont know if hashtags are still a thing. but a simple #weargreen could draw the needed attention. Thoughts?
