    If true, this seems to be very much not good, for vary many reasons:

    A new lawsuit filed in Washington, D.C., alleges that the Trump administration is divulging details of Iranian asylum seekers to the government of Iran.

    Lawyers with the left-leaning Public Citizen Litigation Group argue that the administration began sharing information about the applications with Iran in March 2025. Since then, U.S. government officials have "periodically mailed or hand delivered immigration files of Iranians" in immigration custody to the Iranian government, according to the complaint.

    They will find every single way to be stupid, cruel, and wrong. I've never seen anything quite like it.
    Super villains in movies can be that cruel but never simultaneously so stupid.

    Decision was made for “expediency,” under pressure to provide targets at start of conflict, per 2 sources. But it also directly contributed to accidental strike on the school, sources added. “The Pentagon is pressing everyone to move faster,” one source said. “A lot of former hedge-fund people & made-for-TV personalities in the mix. But leadership at CENTCOM did not push back either.”

    Well, those ashats deported a number of them straight back to Iran last year.

    The US deported 54 Iranian nationals — including Christian converts, ethnic minorities, and political dissidents — back to the Islamic Republic in late September, despite several of those on the plane insisting their lives were at risk upon their return.

    It'd be nice if we could do some official acknowledgement and even an apology. I appreciate the gesture from Sen. Kennedy, but he can't speak for the country. We can't ever make it right, but Trump makes it worse with his selfish behavior.

    what needs to happen is Pete Kegsbreath and the other criminals being charged with war crimes, but that will never happen

    an apology for blowing up 200 little girls is basically nothing IMO…makes it sound like an oopsie…you don’t even have to mean it when you offer an apology, and we know this regime won’t

    if Iran blew up some all-girls school here, it would be mayhem

    I don't disagree. Offering an apology is the barest little gesture. Does nothing to bring back the little girls, remediate anything for the families, bring justice for the crime, or anything. It would cost the US nothing at all, and our reputation would improve not lessen from it. As you say, you don't even have to mean it. And still Trump can't do this tiny act of humility.
