Where have you been the last eight years?
While candidate Obama came to office pledging to end George W Bush’s wars, he leaves office having been at war longer than any president in US history. He is also the only president to serve two complete terms with the nation at war.
After weeks saying the Russians stole the elections for Trump and not putting US - Russia relations in any sort of jeopardy, oh noes, no sabre rattling there.
Now the press is saying, typified by the NYT, but, but:
Hillary Clinton has got her pompoms out cheering it on.
Call it a reprisal if you will, but it is nothing less than an act of war. We are now committed to fighting directly the Assad regime and their allies.
There was no direct attack on the US nor its citizens. The US has joined Russia in becoming directly involved in a civil war, on opposing sides.
The bloody carnage of the last 16 years across N. Africa, the Levant, through Iraq to the borders of India has brought misery to hundreds of millions. The recent war crimes in Syria at the summit of the crimes committed.
The Global arms trade supplying both sides for profit.
Torture pardoned.
Regime change by various nefarious means.
The bombing of hospitals.
The use of banned weapons.

Now a strictly military action.
The Pentagon under President Donald Trump is enjoying greater freedom to run its wars the way it wants -- and not constantly seek White House approval on important decisions.
The State of Our Selection Process
The ongoing farce
Hair Trump watches a lot of TV, we know that from his twitter account.
Hair Trump then goes on twitter and has a meltdown over what he saw on TV.
Hair Trump then gets Sean Spicer to try and clean up his mess, Sean then makes it worse but a whole lot funnier than the original rant.
1] The FBI are investigating possible Russian interference whether there is/is not.
2] Hair Trump is full of bullshit.
3] Many people are making stuff up [Dead wrong/pants on fire] as they go along.
4] Voting machines were not tampered with anywhere [with respect to this investigation].
5] Government doesn't like leaks/leakers especially when it is soooo transparent already.
Self publicist supremo, Gee Dubya's poodle and well known lying warmongering ass-hole Tony Blair brings you:
