So true!

Completely unstable and perilous. The House must bring up impeachment articles, and the Senate needs to remove a president who wants to commit war crimes. We cannot sit idly by as Donald Trump threatens to end an entire civilization.

“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” -Trump Article III The following acts shall be punishable: (a) Genocide; (b) Conspiracy to commit genocide; (c) Direct and public incitement to commit genocide; (d) Attempt to commit genocide; (e) Complicity in genocide.

call for an investigation into the president's fitness. call for the house to impeach. say you will obstruct every last bit of senate business. call for soldiers to disregard illegal orders. say you will prosecute the people who do this. say you will take their military pensions and benefits.

We won't last 33 more months of this. This must stop. We must make it stop.

Donald Trump is an unhinged warmonger and war criminal using violence for personal gain and profit, while innocent people pay the price.   Congress must reconvene to pass the War Powers Resolution. The 25th Amendment must also be invoked. Congress has to do our damn job. War powers and Impeachment.

Do you know how EXTREMELY FUCKED UP SHIT HAS TO BE for me to be reposting Tucker Carlson positively???

Can't tell you how many members of Congress who *at best* had nothing to say when I asked about the Minab girls school attack. There is a profanely cold detachment inside Capitol Hill, a mode completely unrecognizable to common human decency I wish I could properly convey to you.

Is there anything you can do to stop the Republic from turning into Trump, Inc.? And to stop the Mideast War? You can join the rest of us at tomorrow's No KIngs Marches. More than 3,000 are planned, in all 50 states. Let's show the world what democracy looks like.

again I point out how strange it is that high-level diplomatic negotiations of war and peace are being conducted by freelancers Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, both of whom have egregious conflicts of interest, and not the actual secretary of state

BREAKING: Award-winning journalist Scott MacFarlane is joining MeidasTouch as our Chief Washington Correspondent. This is a major expansion of our enterprise and investigative reporting in D.C.

Trump is suspending sanctions on Iran and Russia, which will put over $15 billion in their treasuries to help them fund the wars against us. It’s stunning. We have never ever seen this level of war incompetence in American history.

“They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor.” — Tupac said it years ago… and here we are. The Pentagon is now asking for an additional $200 BILLION for this war. We always find the money for war. But when it comes to housing, healthcare, or feeding people? Suddenly it’s crickets.

Finally now, Mr. Putin? What took you so long?

This is a lie on a scale of Elon Musk saying he would cut the deficit to zero. Just insane. Not just untrue, but the opposite of the truth, which is that immigrants are lowering the deficit. www.cato.org/white-paper/...

So interesting to read this interview with Mahmood Mamdani in the Times today! (FREE ARTICLE)

CNN at the site of an Israeli strike in Lebanon that killed 9 people, including 5 children: "We're told it was a yogurt factory by the neighbors here." "The children's bodies, we're told, are in pieces and are going to take a while to identify the DNA so that they can actually do a burial."

EXCLUSIVE: Military leaders warned Hegseth not to gut the offices that limit risk to civilians. He ignored them. The decision faces renewed attention as the Pentagon investigates a strike on an Iranian girls’ school that killed hundreds of children.

I wonder what percentage of Americans knows that the CIA helped overthrow a democracy in Iran in 1953, installing a brutal dictator who tortured and murdered people. Republicans keep citing the 1979 Islamic Revolution as if that was the start of U.S.-Iran hostilities. Go back 26 years earlier.

A purpose of the war on Iran might well be to provoke a terrorist attack inside the United States, thereby justifying the need to “federalize” elections. We must anticipate it, with sadness and resolution, and not be surprised, if it happens. snyder.substack.com/p/the-desire...

Most essential point to remember: we had a nuclear non-proliferation deal with Iran. Trump ripped it up.

The latest Quinnipiac University poll found more than half of the American electorate opposes the ongoing military campaign against Iran, and nearly three-quarters said they would be against the use of U.S. ground forces there. From Stars and Stripes' Phillip Walter Wellman:

ON THE GROUND | Is Trump’s war over? Not for the thousands in Beirut left homeless by bombs

Breaking news: A drone assault hit a major U.S. diplomatic facility in Iraq in a suspected retaliation by pro-Tehran militias to the U.S. and Israel’s war on Iran, according to a security official and an internal U.S. alert reviewed by The Post.

Is the US about to send troops to Iran? Kudos to PBS for covering this important story. Not a word on the CNN website.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public. I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are. 1/ Here's what I can share:

Mangled missile fragments purporting to be from the deadly strikes that hit a naval base and elementary school in southern Iran on Feb. 28 bear the markings of an American cruise missile, according to an analysis by The New York Times.

New York Times investigation concludes USA Tomahawk missile probably hit girls' school in Tehran and killed 175 people.

The view of Tehran’s skyline overnight on Sunday was apocalyptic: Billowing smoke and towering oil fires turned the horizon orange as Israeli strikes ignited fuel depots outside the Iranian capital. By morning, dark, oily smoke hung over the city. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/08/w...

Conflict in Iran is hitting the economies of Europe and Asia harder and faster than it is striking the United States. These are the countries feeling the biggest impact:

It's incredible that this is happening and almost nobody is trying to stop it.

‘Dark, like our future’: Iranians describe scenes of catastrophe after Tehran’s oil depots bombed

Like the bombing of Dresden, these moves are targeting civilians and basic infrastructure. Illegal war crimes.

The March 15, 2025, killing of Ruben Ray Martinez drew almost no public attention. But Martinez is now the first known American citizen shot to death by federal immigration agents during President Trump’s second term. https://wapo.st/4lbpGYC

Two brothers from South Texas and their high school mariachi bandmates were recognized by their congresswoman last June for winning a state mariachi competition. Nine months later, the brothers, along with their parents and younger brother, are in ICE detention and facing deportation.

Yes, I’ve noticed how Hegseth and crew are trying to rewrite the English language. It’s pitiful.

They like to bomb things. 🥴 Source: Public Policy Polling (PPP)

Former British diplomat Rob Macaire on mobilising the Kurds to help topple Iran's government: 'It’s difficult to think of a policy that would carry such meagre prospects of success and such overwhelming risks.'

The Trump Administration is considering asking Congress for new emergency spending for the Iran War. Hell no. This is our chance to draw a line in the sand and use our power to stop this war before it kills more Americans and sends the Middle East into more chaos.

A story that is not being told enough about the Iran War is that the U.S. and Israel have totally different, incompatible goals. The U.S. says it’s targeting weapons systems. Israel wants regime change and a failed state. This conflict leads to total incoherence.

Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.

‘The memories stay behind’: hundreds of thousands flee the Israeli bombs in Beirut

Exclusive: Since the war began, Russia has passed Iran the locations of U.S. military assets, including warships and aircraft. The assistance signals that the conflict now features one of America’s chief nuclear-armed competitors. https://wapo.st/47vAwD9

Less than a week after an airstrike killed dozens of children at an Iranian elementary school, the White House posted a video of bombing footage mixed with clips from movies and video games. Many online were outraged by what they said was a callous joke.
