Editor-in-Chief of The War Zone (TWZ) Tyler Rogoway:

B-2s will likely show up tonight, making direct attacks on key targets in a way no other platform can.

Yes this could include MOPs, but also lots of JDAMs against less fortified targets.

They can achieve massive effects in a single sortie. One B-2 can carry 80 500lb JDAMs. Entire airfield’s infrastructure gone on a single pass.

They would not be employed until the night and they now have the benefit of highly degraded air defenses and disrupted command and control.

This is when the air campaign will change.

The US military carried out nearly 900 US strikes in the first 12 hours of this operation, US defense official tells me. The strikes came “from land, air and sea and included drones.”
All the while “defending against 100s of incoming Iranian ballistic missiles.”

Iran has fired about 300 missiles today. They have 2000 long range missiles and 2000 shorter range missiles. They had built back up their arsenal since last summer.

In Bahrain at the 5th Fleet HQ the Iranians hit an “empty warehouse” and a Ray Dome - radar installation - the dome seen in the video from the strike. There are multiple redundancies and nothing that has happened has affected the mission, according to this official.

What is the goal/end state:
“Iran doesn’t have the capability to attack its neighbors: no drones, no missiles, no Navy.”

The US and its partners know where Iran’s highly enriched uranium is, but it is hard to get to.

Expect the operation to last “a couple of weeks.” But POTUS could decide to off ramp early if he chooses.

There are still a number of air defenses left, according to US official. Will take a few days to suppress.

To put some finer points on what you've posted:
- the US and Israel went this weekend, well ahead of the planned start, because of an opportunity to hit the Ayatollah. The US doesn't have everything lined up yet, its unlikely this is over.
- US special forces it is known were training for two specific operations. For the past year. One was a snatch of a VIP target from a secure compound (I believe Trump has confirmed this was Maduro) the other is reportedly assaults into some sort of underground facility - details about the exact goals beyond killing all opposition is unknown. People have speculated this is a mission to destroy or seize Iran's remaining enriched uranium stock piles, and probaby destroy any remaining equipment for enrichment and handling of Uranium.
- The US has been telegraphing that the airstrikes and level of forces employed are to send a clear message of support to the Iranian protestors "We are here to support you if you over throw the regime, we can stay for a long time and be your air support if you do this.". But that requires the protestors to organize and seize the chance; if they do not, Trump will take his toys and go home.

War Tema 'China Provides Stealth Aircraft Hunting Radar, BeiDou Satellite Link to Iran'

Deployment of China’s YLC-8B UHF anti-stealth radar in Iran could extend detection timelines to 700km, directly challenging F-35 Lightning II and B-2 Spirit operational assumptions across the Middle East.​

The reported transfer of China’s YLC-8B strategic three-dimensional radar to Iran represents a decisive escalation in Beijing’s military-technical support to Tehran, with one defence analyst warning that “the YLC-8B is one of the few radars of its type in the world which can continuously detect and track a Western fifth-generation aircraft at long...

Trump can't declare war; he has to go through Congress. Throughout both his administrations, he never went to Congress and asked them to declare war.
Therefore, Trump has never started a war, and has never brought the U.S. into the war. Promises made, promises kept.
