What is @whitehouse.senate.gov doing? Used to think he would have been better as RM/Chair of Senate Judiciary over Durbin, but those feelings are long gone.

Why is the Secretary of The Interior even talking about an upcoming war anywhere?
The Iraq-Iran war ended in 1988. Is Interior Secretary Doug Burgum talking about an upcoming Iraq-Iran war that the Trump regime is helping plan? Or is Burgum just hallucinating like Kellyanne Conway was when she referred to the Bowling Green Massacre?
