Conversations on Groong - June 28, 2025
In this episode of Conversations on Groong, retired Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski joins us to unpack the so-called “12-Day War” between Israel and Iran, and the troubling ways in which Donald Trump has redefined his “America First” doctrine to justify U.S. involvement. We examine Trump’s strikes on Iranian nuclear sites and the muted response from MAGA influencers. The conversation also explores Israel’s goals, the regional fallout, the near-total silence from Congress, and what this moment says about the erosion of anti-war sentiment in America.
Topics:
- Israel’s War on Iran
- Where did Trump’s America 1st Go?
