Frauds. All the way down.

Congratulations. You harassed a married staffer until she submitted to your perversions leading to her suicide and still kept your job because the Republican Party stands for nothing except the acquisition of power. Congrats, Tony. bsky.app/profile/atru...

"Trump has no plan for Iran. Just blow shit up, kill some people, and hope for the best. It is the war of a Mad King."

This was so true.

Here’s a legal scholar of “international law and the use of force and armed conflict” on the illegal attack on #Iran @craigxmartin.bsky.social “unlawful” Any journalist, editor or outlet that does not center this essential context is enabling the Trump regime. + possible “war crimes”

“Unfortunately, because Congress is not taking any steps to rein ICE officers in, there really is no option other than states protecting their constituents’ rights," said Joanna Schwartz, a law professor at UCLA.

This this this! Though I'd argue the Maduro regime is still the Maduro regime, too.

NBC: “Are you committing your missiles won’t have the capability to reach 🇺🇸?” Iranian FM: “Yes.” NBC: “Then why are you bombing our bases?” Iranian FM: “Because they’re attacking us.”

They are literally trying to convince you that starting a war is ending a war.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. The military industrial complex is cheering today.

NEW: President Donald Trump suggested Saturday that his military strike against Iran may have been driven in part by claims that the country interfered in the last two U.S. presidential elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

“Every Republican president comes to office, cuts benefits for the poor, cuts taxes for the rich, raises prices, and then bombs a Middle East country.” @mehdirhasan.bsky.social explains how Trump’s ‘anti-war’ campaign was a lie, noting the president has bombed seven countries in his second term.

"The only way they can get elected is to cheat" Also Trump: pass me a law so I don't have to win fair elections Students, Seniors, Married Women & Disaster victims — all turned away over trivial paperwork My publisher's note on why it won't stand this week on @contrariannews.org 👇-TN\

The idea of a legislative body representing the population having the ability to check the ultimate power of a country’s leader sounds really neat. Someone should write that down.

CONGRESS declares war. NOT President tRumpstein.

Trump in 2011: “Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He’s weak and he’s ineffective.”

US and Israeli attacks on Iran are flagrantly unlawful acts of aggression. The reported intentional targeting of civilian political leaders is also a grave breach of IHL - a war crime. Obvious and largely uncontested, but it needs to be repeated far and wide - and condemned in no uncertain terms.

Footage from Minab, Iran, shows the aftermath of an Israeli-US strike on a girls' elementary school that reportedly killed more than 50 people.

Exclusive: Prior to Iran attacks, CIA assessed Khamenei would be replaced by hardline IRGC elements if killed, sources say reut.rs/4l9SCAs

Sadly, this is about the next election. He’s laying the groundwork to declare his election “emergency” to change rules and argue to courts they can’t question his national security judgment in war time. And if the Court does, he’s preparing to say that’s beyond their constitutional powers.

Marjorie Taylor Greene unleashed on the Trump administration over its war with Iran, calling them “sick fucking liars.”

@velshi.com @ms.now Diplomatic process was on going and working. You ask why now, why Trump is bombing when Iran had agreed to monitoring of its nuclear program. Can you chew gum & walk.?

DHS is rewriting its detention rules to ignore the law—and entrap millions.

Authoritarianism scholar Ruth Ben-Ghiat explains why she believes Americans are succeeding at developing systems to resist the slide into authoritarianism and why we shouldn’t give up. joycevance.substack.com/p/live-with-...

Maybe Rupert was on one of the Signal chats 👊💥 🇺🇸

I wrote about the tragic death of Nurul Amin Shah Alamin Buffalo. I explain how complicity can be the cumulative result of many small decisions in which people abdicate their basic obligations to other humans -- the rule of law can't exist without empathy asharangappa.substack.com/p/the-questi...

“If Kamala wins, only death and destruction await because she is the candidate of endless wars. I am the candidate of peace. I am peace.” - Trump, 11/1/24 “I’m not going to start a war, I’m going to stop wars.” - Trump, 11/5/24

“President Trump's decision to bomb Iran is indefensible. This was not about preempting an imminent threat—it was a strategically misguided power play, with no discernible endgame,” Cato Institute’s Jon Hoffman says.

NEW: More evidence that those who tried to overturn the results of the 2020 election are working with Trump administration officials to set the rules for the 2026 midterms. @dougbockclark.bsky.social

This would pretty much be America’s Enabling Act moment.

Trump: “Has anybody gone down with their 401k? Because if you do, you’re a loser.”

Shredding the constitution is hilarious (From @atrupar.com )

What if a nation's legislature cedes its responsibilities to an executive? Sound familiar? In March of 1933 the Reichstag enacted a statute that gave the German cabinet, and as a result gave the new chancellor—a man named Hitler—emergency powers to override the Weimar Constitution.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Lauren Bobblehead snapped a photo of Hillary Clinton mid-testimony and then deliberately it off to right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson. So spare us the “I do not recall” routine. 🥴 The real question is, how much did he pay her?

"Rogan, Schulz, and Von now express reservations & regrets, which is fine & merits some praise & encouragement. But for the kid traumatized by watching his dad or abuelita forced to the ground, handcuffed, & whisked away in a van, the pod-bros’ awakenings come too late." — @schaller67.bsky.social

Democrats, look at these numbers. news.gallup.com/poll/702440/...

Pretty sure they brought in the wrong First Lady to testify...🤔😏

Trump is all over the Epstein Files and the DOJ is covering it up

Which country will Melania be representing?

Both Donald Trump and his Slovene-born escort spent years calling for Obama’s birth certificate. I am calling for Melania Trump’s legal immigration papers: How did she get an “Einstein” visa for extraordinary abilities despite her blatant lie under oath about her college degrees?

Wow. punchbowl.news/article/sena...
