As I delve into the recent news regarding Biden warning Iran that any assassination attempt against Trump would be considered a declaration of war by the US, I find myself grappling with conflicting emotions. On one hand, as an individual who does not particularly hold Trump in high regard, I understand the sentiment shared by many that an attempt on his life transcends personal opinions and delves into the realm of international relations and respect for the sanctity of life. Regardless of political affiliations, the fact remains that any foreign power targeting a former President of the United States cannot and should not be tolerated.… Continue reading

Accusations and claims of assassination attempts are currently circulating, with Russia pointing fingers at the US for bankrolling Ukrainian efforts to take out none other than President Vladimir Putin.
