Despite it being technically illegal… Go figure. This administration harassing outside of the law…


When President Donald Trump ordered strikes on Iran last summer, he and his administration repeatedly declared that the attacks had obliterated the Middle Eastern country’s nuclear program and set back its ability to make a nuclear weapon for years.
In the immediate runup to Saturday’s strikes with Israel on Iran, however, Trump and members of his administration began issuing more urgent warnings about Iran’s nuclear ambitions. It was among the shifting — and often openly contradictory — messages sent on Iran.
After widespread protests erupted in Iran in January, for example, Trump repeatedly threatened military strikes — only to back off after he said he was assured Tehran had halted killing protesters and not carried out planned executions — except international observers say the death toll from a crackdown over the protests exceeded 7,000. At the same time, following years of scoffing at, and openly campaigning against, the idea that previous conservatives administrations had been advocates for “regime change” missions, Trump seemed to change his mind and warm to the idea.
In the aftermath of Saturday’s attacks, the president and other officials have offered multiple reasons they said the latest strikes on Iran were necessary — some of which conflict with what they said over the past eight months.
—“THE NUCLEAR SITES IN IRAN ARE COMPLETELY DESTROYED!” — Trump in a June 24, 2025, post on Truth Social.
—“Based on everything we have seen — and I’ve seen it all — our bombing campaign obliterated Iran’s ability to create nuclear weapons.” — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to CNN in a June 25, 2025, story
—“The precision strikes perfectly hit their targets and destroyed Iran’s nuclear facilities, resulting in the total obliteration of Iran’s ability to create a nuclear weapon.” — The White House in a June 25, 2025, press release.


tl;dr it lists 9 things but not “how to spot them.” A better working title would be, “9 lies we’ve known about and ignored for almost fifty years.”


Make sure the twig … Uhhmm… I hope those rats are… Sighhhh. I got nothing. This timeline truly is the worst timeline. Like, my beard only grows into a goatee now.


Also this is my first post after 3 years here, so let me know if anything needs to be fixed
We need a better president and house of representatives. No wonder it’s so fucked up if you’ve been gone three years. Get on it and get this fixed ASAP, please.


Kind of funny to see, “only” used to describe 3/5 of a whole. That’s most states, though even the ones that do require it rarely use it as more than a pretense for a stop.


I had the same trouble a little while back, with the same fix. https://lemmy.world/post/41492140


Good for him. Also, I bet Trump appreciates being recognized for his entire body of work, not just the presidency.
Thanks. I’ll test drive that setting a while. Seems fine so far. I never noticed that feature when it arrived, and honestly wouldn’t have chosen Apple on purpose. Thx again

This is not reproducible now that I created this post, but the last twenty minutes, I’ve been messing with navigation to make it go away, and the only thing that worked was force close and reopen. Now it’s not doing it. Shrug…
I think the article says an anonymous source shared their discovery, which 404 then asked Trail of Bits to verify, which they did. I would love to see more, but I don’t see a scrap of data on the claim yet.
