ARE WE SAFE?
By
Richard Davis
Most countries in the world that attack other countries expect some degree of retaliation on their own soil. But the United States has engaged on multiple fronts and has seemed to be safe from any major retaliatory attack. There was 9/11, but that was not in response to us starting a war.
Trump has been attacking countries all over the world and, when he does so, he puts U.S. military bases and their personnel into the line of fire, but our country has not been attacked. The question in my mind lately is whether or not Iran is going to be satisfied with killing a few American soldiers in response to the no-reason attack on their country.
Talking heads are having debates about what form Iranian retaliation might take. If I was an Iranian leader I would be inclined to find a way to fight back if my people were being killed and buildings destroyed for no other reason than the unhinged President of the United States started a war of extremely questionable motivation.
What form would Iranian retaliation take? The world we live in offers military options not available a few decades ago. Cyber attacks are possible. Iran has the capability to do damage to the U.S. infrastructure. Our power grids are vulnerable. Any attack on the grids would most likely aim for the biggest bang for the buck.
Iran could try to shut down power in New York or Los Angeles or any other American city. Gridlock would be the result, and we would be powerless to fix anything for a significant period of time. Subway systems could be attacked and New Yorkers could find themselves without heat, hot water and electricity in much the same way that Iranians have lost support systems in places attacked by the U.S.
There could also be chemical weapons attacks. It would be frighteningly easy for one or two people to spread deadly viruses in population centers. The U.S. has decimated much of its public health infrastructure and we are more vulnerable to disease outbreak than ever before. Imagine what would happen if Ebola or even Measles were spread into the subway system in New York or Boston. The result would be much worse than any Hollywood depiction of such an event.
What about direct warfare on U.S. soil? That is the least likely event to play out, but it is not impossible. Iran does not have a nuclear weapon and they are many years away from developing one despite the lies coming out of Trump’s mouth. They do not have weapons that could reach U.S. soil but if they can draw allies from Russian or China into this spark that could set off World War III who knows what could happen.
Trump claims his war in Iran has almost accomplished its goal. We have yet to know what that goal is. I have believed that he started this war, in large part, to deflect attention from the Epstein files and Trump’s possible connection to sex with underage girls. The fact that the files relating to Trump have gone missing should be evidence that he has a lot to hide. It’s possible he ordered one of his lackies to burn certain files.
Even if the war with Iran ends in a few days will Iran’s new leader feel that he has to retaliate? Iran is a major player in world affairs and their leaders are smart people. They may not respond to Trump’s incursion now and give us a false sense of security while waiting for a moment in the future to attack us on multiple fronts. It is a reasonable expectation, and we have to realize that this war may last long after Trump thinks it is over.
IMPEACH President Donald Trump, no excuses!
San Diego County, California has the huge U.S. Naval Base San Diego (NBSD) which is the principal homeport of the Pacific Fleet, hosting over 50 Navy ships, including amphibious assault ships (USS Boxer, Essex, Makin Island), destroyers (Curtis Wilbur, Chafee), and littoral combat ships. It serves as a major hub for Pacific operations, with significant maintenance and logistical support facilities for U.S. Navy and Coast Guard vessels.
Also in San Diego County, F-35B Training Squadron at MCAS Miramar. F-35 Lightning II jets are a major presence in San Diego, primarily based at Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Miramar and operated by carrier air wings stationed at NAS North Island. MCAS Miramar hosts multiple squadrons, including VMFA-311 and VMFA-314, which fly the F-35C, a stealth fighter optimized for aircraft carrier operations.
There is a real threat of Iranians or their allies sailing a large ship 220 miles off the coast of San Diego and launching Drone strikes, I think, and 200 miles out is international waters; and the threat of Iranians launching Drone strikes at California is a possibility stated in several news stories tonight.
The risks of retaliation could last for years, retaliation could still go on after President Trump is no longer in office.
Some people are worried that Burlington,Vermont will be a Target of other types of retaliatory attacks, other than by Drones, such as cyber attacks. After all, what do you think our F-35 Jets are being used for right now?
Many Iranians living in Vermont and elsewhere in the United States are wonderful people.
Safe?
Trump may be hoping the US gets attacked. An excuse to declare a national emergency…declare martial law…and cancel up coming elections.
How Many Congressional Seats Could Be Turned Away From Republicans November 2026?
I’m not finished doing my math calculations here, just to let you know I’m trying.
I really did not like the Democrats bringing in so many illegal migrants.
They claim that U.S. Citizens commit just as many or more crimes, but
I think their “facts” are full of nonsense.
So, what I am doing is trying to figure out how the Democrats could win the
November 2026 election, even though I am deeply opposed to some of their
policies.
I always prefer voting for Independents and Minor Parties, and it is possible
that if the U.S. Congress has a lot of Independents and Minor Parties, that
they would vote to Impeach President Donald Trump and Pete Hesgeth,
for starters.
The point of my prowling through https://politics1.com/ is to see if there
is a reasonable chance that more non-Republicans could be voted for on
November 3, 2026. That’s all we need to Impeach President Donald Trump
and Pete Hesgeth, and all of the Impeachable characters who aided and
abetted them.
Sure, the United States Senators who are current
Republicans ALLOWED them to continue this ill-conceived war.
So, we have to attack the details to find the Impeachable offenses.
Now, here is what I am looking at from https://politics1.com/
There are 34 States which will be voting for a U.S. Senator Nov. 3, 2026, whether they vote
for the incumbent or someone new, we can just hope they will vote for someone new.
Now, on my list of States, see to the right of each State is an S and H or just an H.
If you see just an H, then they are voting only for a Representative to U.S. Congress.
If you see an S and an H, then they are voting for BOTH a U.S. Senator and a Congressperson.
So, there are 34 States voting for U.S. Senator on Nov.3, 2026.
Some will vote to keep an incumbent sitting Democrat or Republican,
some will vote for a new choice.
That’s where the chance of being able to Impeach President Donald Trump comes to play.
Donald Trump is absolutely frightened of the Nov. 3, 2026 Election.
Impeachment is voted for in the U.S. House of Representatives, and we can count on
most Democrats, Independents and Minor Parties to Vote to Impeach.
But then, the TRIAL for Impeachment occurs in the United States Senate.
That’s where the action will be.
That’s why President Donald Trump and super-boy Pete Hesgeth are bombing and
setting up the United States of America for retaliation.
They might even get on their knees every morning and Pray to Satan for a National Emergency.

Safe From Who?
Iran? Probably. There’s not much they could feasibly do to America. Or from the feds? We’re already being prepped for a false-flag; see all the goofy stories about “Iranian sleeper cells” and “Iranian drone attacks on California”. But since people are inured to random violence on the order of gangbanger shootouts or a “mass shooting”, not to mention distracted by ICE mayhem, revelations about the Epstein class, and general economic misery, the false flag will have to be much bigger to get anyone’s attention.
Right now only 20-something percent of Americans support the war. Why would Iran bother with an attack here that would potentially galvanize Americans? They’ve been smart so far, strategically. They’ve blown up all the US bases in the gulf and blinded most of the US and Israeli missile-defense radars. The straight of Hormuz is closed and there’s no way for the US to reopen it. If Iran keeps being as smart as they’ve been, they won’t allow a ceasefire or reopen the straight until they get what they want, which seems to be the eviction of US military bases and reparations, along with inflicting enough economic pain to keep the Epstein Axis from trying again.
Safe
Not Iran. Don’t kid yourself we have our own war right here with the ICE goons. We are watching our own Civil War in the process. We have to stay vigilant and protect our democracy. NO KINGS MARCH 28TH.
KTurnas, PLEASE HELP EDUCATE FOLKS ABOUT HOW "KINGS" ARE MADE & HOW WE CAN STOP IT!
Chanting “NO KINGS” and holding up protest signs and marching around is great fun, but how about educating people and students about HOW “KINGS” are created!
You pay taxes to the IRS and then the US Congress votes to give your hard earned tax dollars to their choice of corporations as “subsidies”. Your money is going to the choice of corporations selected by the US Congress, not to all of them, just to some of them. About 500 corporations receive the most of your tax dollars, millions or billions each. Not all corporations receive SUBSIDIES.
If YOU need a large amount of money, you have to go to a bank and agree to pay
a large amount of interest on your loan. Corporations, on the other hand, are receiving our tax dollars as “SUBSIDIES” for free.
WHY? What on earth is going on? The corporations selected by a vote of the U.S. Congress to receive subsidies are making a fortune by using your hard earned tax dollars to create products they sell internationally, but they keep all the profits for themselves and don’t give you a share. STOP MAKING KINGS!
The corporations which receive our hard earned tax dollars as “subsidies”
then donate to 26 United States Code section 501(c)(4) groups, (NOT 501(c)(3) groups),
because 501(c)(4) groups are allowed to donate money to PACs, political action committees,
which then donate to the re-election campaigns of U.S. Senators and Congresspersons who voted to give the SUBSIDIES to the corporations they expect to donate to their political campaigns. Most of the same elected officials get re-elected with this scheme.
DEMAND THAT CORPORATIONS WHICH RECEIVE SUBSIDIES SHOULD PAY A SHARE OF THEIR PROFITS MADE USING OUR HARD EARNED TAX DOLLARS INTO A FUND FOR FOOD ASSISTANCE, HOUSING, HEALTHCARE and EDUCATION, plus they must still pay taxes!
This plan is not “Double Taxation”, it is merely demanding a share of profits made using our hard earned tax dollars. Just like you pay interest on a loan and then you also pay taxes.
STOP MAKING KINGS WITH SUBSIDIES! DEMAND A SHARE OF PROFITS MADE USING OUR TAX DOLLARS!
STOP MAKING KINGS IN THE PHARMACEUTICAL BUSINESS!
You pay taxes $$$ to the I.R.S. and then the U.S. Congress votes to give billions $$$ to the N.I.H. National Institute of Health and then they hand out your hard earned tax dollars to research Laboratories to invent new prescription drugs and medical devices which are sold around the world by PHARMACEUTICAL corporations who make billions of dollars in profits, and
they don’t give you any, even though you paid for the R&D, research, design and development. STOP MAKING KINGS and DEMAND a SHARE of THEIR PROFITS!
STOP MAKING DEFENSE CONTRACTOR INDUSTRY KINGS!
You pay taxes $$$ to the I.R.S. and then the U.S. Congress votes to give billions $$$ to the PENTAGON, and then they hand out your hard earned tax dollars to research Laboratories to pay for the research, design and development to invent new weapons and jets, which are sold around the world to Allies of the U.S.A. by the defense corporations who make billions of dollars in profits, and they don’t give you any, even though you paid for the R&D, research, design and development. STOP MAKING KINGS and DEMAND a SHARE of THEIR PROFITS!
We might need to protect the Bakhtiar family members in Vermont and keep them safe.
I just did a Google search and there are a bunch of medical doctors with the last name Bakhtiar in Vermont.
I will not list them here, do your own Google search.
One of my sister-in-law’s father was a Dr. Bakhtiar, a surgeon in another state who immigrated here from Iran. Before he passed away he told me about some military things deep in the ground in Iran, and it made my sister-in-law furious that he told me. But looking on the internet, lots of people knew what was going on, the attempts to build nuclear weapons in Iran. So, I think my sister-in-law, born in the U.S.A., lives in fear because her father was related in some way to Shapour Bakhtiar, maybe he was a cousin or uncle. Shapour was assassinated.
Shapour Bakhtiar (Persian; 26 June 1914 – 6 August 1991) was an Iranian politician who served as the last Prime Minister of Iran under the rule of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. In the words of the historian Abbas Milani: “more than once in the tone of a jeremiad he reminded the nation of the dangers of clerical despotism, and of how the fascism of the mullahs would be darker than any military junta.” In 1991, he and his secretary were murdered in his home in Suresnes, France, by agents of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
