Responding to anon last bread regarding General Petreaus compliments

>>24340856

Yes it makes we wonder, since he’s a bush controlled asset, if he is trying to get in with Pete Hegseth, Caine and others to pretend he’s loyal. He is either a spy to find out what DoW is doing, because Bush/Cheney want to sabotage Trump’s plans, or he genuinely impressed.

He might be impressed by Trump’s leaders, because he wasn’t allowed to run his war under the Bush Admin, VP Dick Cheney Admin. (I’m making the sign of the cross writing his name). But it’s doubtful Patreaus can be trusted.

On Fox: He’s been giving out these complements for a couple of week, even praising Trump and his Admin, before that, he was rarely on Fox, now he’s on at least once or twice a week for a month plus now, almost always with Hannity.

>>24341091. Yes, he was still controlled is my perception

>>24341093

I hope not, he was is one if the best strategical Generals in the 20th century. He really appreciates how Trump and his leaders are doing different strategies

>>24341093. Sorry anon I responded to the wrong post

Netanyahu asks White House if secret Iran talks are happening

(He’s annoying and probably wants to blow up any secret talks)

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked the White House for clarifications earlier this week after learning Trump administration officials might be communicating with the Iranian regime, two sources with knowledge of the issue said.

Why it matters:Netanyahu's outreach suggests that theIsraeli government is concerned about a scenario in which the U.S. pursues a ceasefire before all of Israel's war objectives have been achieved.

Behind the scenes:The sources said Israeli intelligence obtained information earlier this week that raised suspicions some kind of communications had taken place between Iran and the Trump administration to discuss a ceasefire.

• On Monday Netanyahu called White House officials andasked if such talks or exchange of messages happened.

• "The White House told Bibi that theTrump administration wasn't talking to the Iranians behind his back," one source said.

Zoom in: A U.S. official said special envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump's adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner talk almost every day to Netanyahu, to the director of Mossad David Barnea, and to other Israeli officials — and that regardless of ups and downs in the past, the coordination over the last month was very close.

•"They know we are not talking to the Iranians,"the U.S. official said.

• The Israeli embassy in Washington declined to comment. The White House didn't respond to a request for comment.

Between the lines: A U.S. official and another source with knowledge said the Iranians sent messages to the Trump administration over the last few days, through countries in the Gulf and other countries in the region, but the U.S. didn't respond.

• "We treated these messages as bull****," the U.S. official told Axios.

• The New York Times reported on Wednesday that operatives from Iran's Ministry of Intelligence reached out indirectly to the CIA through a third country's spy agency with an offer to discuss terms for ending the conflict.

What they are saying:"Steve Witkoff or Jared Kushner haven't had any conversation with Ali Larijani, Abbas Araghchi or anyone else in the Iranian regime since the war started," a U.S. official said in a briefing with reporters on Tuesday.

• President Trump also ruled out any talks with the Iranian regime in comments Tuesday.

• "Their air defense, Air Force, Navy, and Leadership is gone. They want to talk.I said 'Too Late!'" he wrote on Truth Social.

Paranoid much, what is Israel doing without telling Trump or then Administration. This is there guilt trick because they did something the Trump Admin didn’t know about, in their mission. What did Bibi do behind America’s back?Israel is very notably claiming victory and success of their plan. They don’t want the US be named for credit. I noticed that in media reports.

Lou Holtz, legendary Notre Dame football coach, dead at 89.

South Bend Tribune

March 4, 2026, 5:08 p.m. ET

SOUTH BEND — Lou Holtz, the hard-driving coach who in 1988 became the last to lead Notre Dame football to the national championship, died Wednesday, March 4. He was 89.

Multiple media outlets reported on Jan. 29 that Holtz was in hospice care.

Brash, direct and occasionally controversial during his 11 seasons on the Irish sideline from 1986-96, Holtz remained one of the leading proponents of Notre Dame’s football tradition, even in retirement.

“For those who know Notre Dame, no explanation is necessary,” Holtz liked to say. “For those who don’t, no explanation will suffice.”

The same could be said of Holtz, who had his share of detractors yet inspired fierce loyalty among his former players during a 33-year head coaching career that included stops at William & Mary (1969-71), N.C. State (1972-75), Arkansas (1977-83), Minnesota (1984-85) and South Carolina (1999-2004).

“We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Lou Holtz,” Notre Dame football coach Marcus Freeman said in a statement. “Lou and I shared a very special relationship. He welcomed me to the Notre Dame family immediately, offering me great support throughout our time together. Our relationship meant a lot to me as I admired the values he used to build the foundation of his coaching career: love, trust and commitment.”

Slightly built, bespectacled and speaking with a pronounced lisp, Holtz demanded excellence from his players and routinely pushed his teams to new heights with his motivational tactics.

“Lou was always good at that kind of stuff,” former Irish offensive lineman Tim Grunhard said in a 2022 interview with the South Bend Tribune. “Bringing people back to reality and using motivation to get the best out of his players.”

Considered a wizard of sports psychology, Holtz staged dramatic turnarounds and stunning upsets at several stops, stalking sidelines and berating officials along the way.

Schumer says Senate will vote on Trump’s Iran war today

2 hours ago

Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer said lawmakers areheaded toward a vote on President Donald Trump’s decision to enter the war against Iran, warning that every senator will have to take a clear position.

“Today every senator–every single one–will pick a side,” Schumer said in a floor speech. “Do you stand with the American people who are exhausted with forever wars in the Middle East, or stand with Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth as they bumble us headfirst into another war?”

The vote will be on a war powers resolution that would require congressional approval before any further US attacks on Iran.

The measure, and a similar bill expected in the House later this week, faces long odds in the Republican-controlled Congress and would likely be vetoed by Trump even if it passed.

(So Schumer is on Iran’s side, even though he’s a Jew and Bibi started it! That sounds not very smart. He never was anyway.)

Spanberger slammed by DHS, ICE for 'protecting' illegal immigrant accused of murder

by Nick Minock.1/2

Wed, March 4, 2026 at 3:23 PM

FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. (7News) — The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement(ICE) slammed Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger for saying they should get a signed judicial warrant if they want to detain a man accused of stabbing and murdering a woman at a Fairfax County bus stop.

DHS said Spanberger is fighting to protect a murderer over American citizens.

“Sanctuary [Spanberger] is fighting to protect a MURDERER over American citizens,” DHS posted on X on Tuesday.

“This monster is responsible for fatally stabbing Stephanie Minter. ICE does NOT need judicial warrants to make arrests. The heroes of ICE will continue to arrest and remove criminal illegal aliens across the Commonwealth while Governor Spanberger RELEASES them from jails into Virginia communities to commit more crimes and create more victims.”

“After this criminal alien serves his sentence for MURDER, Governor Spanberger will release him back out onto Virginia’s streets, saying that ICE needs a signed “judicial warrant” to detain him,” ICE posted on X on Tuesday. “This is asinine and legally illiterate. ICE is empowered by federal law to detain illegal aliens, and state officials like Spanberger are REQUIRED to honor ICE detainers. Only a month into being governor, and she’s protecting illegal alien murderers. Disgusting.”

The response from the federal immigration agencies comeafter Spanberger’s told 7News on Monday, “As a former federal law enforcement officer who conducted joint search and arrest warrants alongside state and local officers, Governor Spanberger firmly believes that violent criminals who are in the United States illegallyshould be deported by immigration enforcement.DHS should request a signed judicial warrant to ensure this violent criminal is deported.”

Spanberger’s office sent 7News the statement after DHS called on the governor tocommit to honoring immigration detainers lodged against Abdul Jalloh after he was charged with murdering Stephanie Minter of Fredericksburg at a Fairfax County bus stop.

The man accused of murdering the Fredericksburg woman is a Sierra Leone National,who DHS said is in the country illegally. Jalloh is well known to Fairfax County prosecutors and police.

7News found Jalloh has had more than 40 charges against him in Fairfax County, ranging from rape, stabbings, assaults and more.

In almost every case, Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano dropped the charges against Jalloh, allowing him to go back into the community.

Does ICE need a signed judicial warrant?

Several legal experts 7News has spoken to say ICE does not need a judicial warrant to make an immigration arrest, and that local law enforcement requiring them is a choice.

WhenICE wants to detain an illegal immigrantin the Fairfax County jail,they send detainers and administrative warrants to the Sheriff, which is what happened in the case of Abdul Jalloh.

Legal experts 7News spoke toagreed that ICE cannot go to a local Fairfax County judge to get a judicial warrant. However, ICE can go to a federal judge for a warrant, Ben Messer with the American Immigration Lawyers Association said.

“ICE can go to a federal judge, a federal district judge there in Virginia, and say this person is charged with this crime in the Commonwealth, and they probably can get access to some of the records that have been used to charge the guy and say,this is why, you know, we think he's dangerous,” Messer said.

But formerfederal prosecutor Zack Smith said ICE cannot get a federal warrant for a state crime, which is what Jalloh is charged with.

“Essentially, what thegovernor and others who support her position are doing is they're making it more difficult for ICE to do their jobs,” said Smith. “It could lead to some of these violent repeat offenders being released back onto the street before federal authorities can pick them up. And essentially, what this is designed to do is to throw additional roadblocks in the way of federal immigration authorities being able to effectively and safely do their jobs.”

“The governor says that ICE should get a judicial warrant if they want this guy. To some people, a judicial warrant might sound like a reasonable request, is it?” 7News Reporter Nick Minock asked Jonathan Fahey.

“That's what I think her tactic is to say something that sounds reasonable, but it's inherently not reasonable, and certainly not necessary,” said Fahey.

Fahey is a former federal prosecutor and a former Fairfax County prosecutor. He’s also a former Acting Director of ICE.

“It seems like if you went to a Fairfax judge [requesting a judicial warrant for an immigration arrest], they would say, this is a federal matter,” said Fahey. “If you went to a federal judge, and somehow they were able to do this, there would be a massive backlog in cases. In fact, they wouldn't be able to do anything else other than issue warrants and not do any of their other judicial responsibilities.”

ICE says no judge in the country has the authority to issue a warrant for a civil immigration violation.

(The only time governors, mayors etc will ever abide by the law and not mess with ICE, if a friend or big donor is affected by illegal’s committing the crime!VA has a mass of super rich oligarchs, donors. Etc, she will ultimately run into opposition by these people don’t want illegals committing crime in their wealthy state.)

Trump hints at killing Iran’s next supreme leader

(That’s not a hint it’s a fait accompli, everyone knows it, and they say the same about foreign leaders! PS Iranians would love to have a martyr’s death. This was written by a western idiot!)

US President Donald Trump hinted that Ali Khamenei’s potential successors will be killed as the conflict with Iran escalates.

“Their leadership is just rapidly going.Everybody that seems to want to be a leader, they end up dead,” Trump said on Wednesday.

Trump said the United States was in a “very strong position” in the conflict and praised the country’s military strength. “Somebody said on a scale of 10, where would you rate it? I said about a 15,” he said.

“We have the greatest military in the world by far,” Trump added. “So we’re in a very strong position now.”

@FoxNews

NEW: White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announces that Spain has “agreed to cooperate” with the U.S. military after President Trump said Madrid had indicated Washington could not use certain Spanish bases in support of Operation Epic Fury.

"With respect to Spain, I think they heard the president's message yesterday loud and clear. And it's my understanding, over the past several hours, they've agreed to cooperate with the U.S. military…

The president expects all of our European allies, of course, to, cooperate in this long sought after mission."

(KEK Spain checked how much of Spain’s companies products are sold to the US, and they freaked out because the whole country’s business are revolting of losing US business. So he said yes. Tariffs and warnings are a strange power and it works.)
