COMMENTARY OF THE DAY

The fools acted like the foo is they are. Hundreds of people gathered outside the White House in Washington, D.C., and at other locations across the capital in protest of the country's attack on Iran.
Organizers coordinated protests within hours after President Donald Trump announced a coordinated U.S.-Israeli military strike on several locations in Iran. Hundreds have died in the attacks, including, Trump says, Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Demonstrations were also planned in other major U.S. cities, including New York City, Chicago, Denver, Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Cincinnati, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami and Minneapolis, The Hill reported. Others were scheduled for Sunday in Albany, N.Y.; Ellensburg, Va.; Chattanooga, Tenn,; Decorah, Iowa; Gainesville, Fla.; and Springfield, Mo. A group of organizations that included the Freedom Road Socialist Organization, 50501 DC and Code Pink coordinated the protests outside the White House. The demonstrators later marched along streets in the cites.
Some in the crowd chanted, "No hate, no fear, Iranians are welcome here." Others: "From D.C. to Iran, stop the war, stop the bombs." Metropolitan police officers and Secret Service agents were on hand for the D.C. gatherings, in some cases blocking roads to let marchers pass. The Metropolitan Police Department said on X that it was monitoring events in Iran and coordinating with other law enforcement agencies to protect people in the capital.
