“Nobody knows just how much damage has been done to Iran? Mr. President, I suggest you err on the side of caution. Hit ‘em again — and even harder.”

Re: NYC Dems Choose Muslim Socialist

“If Mamdani wins and implements his agenda, America will get a real-world education in what democratic socialism looks like — not just in a tiny Vermont town, but in America’s largest city. If the results are what most of us expect, it could doom AOC and other progressives from being elected president. The rest of the nation won’t want to sign on to the Chicago/NYC dysfunction.” —California

**Re: Operation Midnight Hammer: The Backstory

“As a career intel officer now residing out here on the Left Coast, these clear Patriot Post assessments rise above the entire field of media reports. Great work on your coverage of Op Rising Lion, Op Midnight Hammer, and the 12-Day War. Your team does a great service for your readers, and that is why I support your fundraising campaigns!” —California

“Before his first term as president, I worked directly with President Trump, then a real estate developer in New York. Now, as then, make no mistake: Trump is brutally honest. He means what he says. Get used to it, folks.” —Massachusetts

“How interesting that Mr. Fetterman, who suffered a severe stroke, has demonstrated both more wisdom and more common sense than the balance of his party, who claim to represent the interests and opinions of their constituents, but are busy playing power games. His commonsense assessment of our nation’s response to the world’s most insidious threat has gained the respect of many Americans.” —Georgia

Re: The Leftmedia’s Pathetically Negative Spin on Trump’s Iran Strikes

“In 2019, amid the great successes of the tax cuts and deregulation, many Americans, including President Trump, were proud and boastful. Others constantly and bitterly complained and reviled instead of enjoying the material blessings. Both failed to give God due thanks. Perhaps COVID-19, like a plague from the book of Numbers, was a consequence. Now we’re seeing a repeat. The ingratitude of the complainers makes the Israelites look pious, but we at least should thank God for our success in Iran.” —Minnesota

“All those media liars — CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times — just can’t bear to see Trump rack up so many successes in his five short months of reign. The bombing raid was biblical in proportion to any previous military coup, possibly D-Day itself. It was a coup de maître for Trump, so the Leftmedia is literally crazed with belittling its far-reaching results.” —Pennsylvania

Re: Did the U.S. Destroy Iran’s Nuke Program?

“Cruise missiles make a great speed bump on the path to Iran’s bomb redevelopment. Hopefully we will have leadership that doesn’t wait to the last moment to deploy them. I also hope that the home of chess and some really cool architecture will come up with better leadership. After this small bombing incident, we should be seeing local Iranian restaurants soon. We always get the good food from our military actions.” —Washington

“The fake news folks jumped all over Trump for his aerial assault. Iran is still two years away from a nuclear weapon! POTUS is nearsighted and a warmonger! A few days later, these same dolts were screaming that the assault had only put Iran’s nuclear program back several months. (Simple-minded ‘reporting’ at its finest.) Well, which one is it?” —North Carolina

“Nobody knows just how much damage has been done to Iran? Mr. President, I suggest you err on the side of caution. Hit ‘em again — and even harder.” —Texas

Re: NATO Warms to Trump’s Tough Love

“When Ukraine was negotiated into giving up its nuclear weapons, it was promised backup against Russia. That promise was soon forgotten and never to be spoken of again. It remains an embarrassment to the integrity of the U.S. and will always make our friends nervous. Should we review those policies and name the offenders?” —Washington

Re: Abortion Increases Thanks to Left-Wing Hysterics

“Planned Parenthood’s abortion clinics will most likely go out of business due to the new easy-to-get pill. Planned Parenthood brought this upon itself. It pushed for legal abortions for any female at any age for any reason, and now with the advent of the pill, it’s got it. No one needs PP now.” —Pennsylvania

Re: Profiles of Valor: SCPO Edward Byers (USN)

“I served with Ed for four years. Thank you for profiling him!” —Florida
