General William T. Sherman: “It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks & groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, more vengeance, more desolation." Trump and Vance are using our troops as their own personal GI Joe toy soldiers. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

Federal Judge Allison Burroughs just SAVED 900,000 immigrants from Trump’s "cruelty is the point" scheme. Read how she shut it down: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/rep-ansari...

RESULT: The right took over the Francis Howell school board, a large MO district in the St. Louis suburbs, earlier this decade; followed book bans & restrictive policies on LGBTQ students. Tonight, the slate endorsed by the teacher's slate swept, and the last remaining conservative was ousted.

We’ve been doing this same thing for 15 months. On tariffs, Panama Canal, Greenland, Canada, Nobel Prize, law firms, media companies, state govts, on & on. Trump makes crazy threats & ultimatums. Causes chaos. Backs down. Causes more chaos. Pointing that out isn’t provoking him into doing worse …

Brutal.

The head of the Department of peace is such a fucking jackass! I cannot wait until this chaotic pathetic regime that is controlling the United States right now is gone. open.substack.com/pub/malcolmn...

... How many times have we had GOOD REASON to throw his Child Rapist ass in Prison ???

If you are a colonial Latin Americanist and don’t know what to do with your digital docs from old projects, please consider donating them to the Iberian Colonial Repository, where MA or PhD student can give these docs a second life in their own research projects! DM me for questions.

so the sequence of events is 1) started an entire pointless war that everyone but your die hard supporters hate 2) whip up his supporters into a genocidal frenzy and then 3) give the targets of that prospective genocide everything they want masterful gambit sir

The most shameful act done in the name of Christianity was The Crusades. Hegseth is enamored with and fixated on The Crusades, to the extent of having tattoos referencing to them. He thinks he's hastening The 2nd Coming. He's dangerously delusional.

Hegseth: "God deserves all the glory. Tens of thousands of sorties, refuelings, and strikes, carried out under the protection of divine providence. A massive effort with miraculous protection."

How Iran won the Iran War www.juancole.com/2026/04/how-...

Context: Trump has repeatedly said Iran’s Navy has been destroyed.

I talked to CBC-Kitchener-Waterloo Radio this morning about #Artemis II and they recorded a little video version of the interview afterward (with similar questions). You can watch here: www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

NO ONE THERE TO STOP TRUMP! HE WANTS THIS FOR IRAN…

Trump is threatening war crimes to annihilate "a whole civilization". Republicans in Congress repeatedly voted for Trump’s war and still won't do their job to end this madness. Enough. Bring Congress back into session. Republicans must grow a spine and stop this catastrophe.

Every sensible government will spend the coming months accelerating the deployment of solar, batteries, heat pumps, and EVs, especially for lower income households. It’ll be a hell of a lot cheaper in the long run than subsidising fossil fuels the next time prices spike, which they will.

One thing that made me happy years ago was that when the staff at @talkingpointsmemo.com emailed @joshtpm.bsky.social and were all "we're gonna start a union," his reaction was "well, yeah you are" and recognized it immediately. So, subscribe, maybe. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/tpm-e...

Another 24 hours in crazy town. We’ve gone from threats of “annihilation” to a two-week ceasefire… both sides claiming victory… Iran still effectively controlling the Strait… and ships only just starting to move again.

Look this chaos is a well thought out plan by the Heritage Foundation to make Americans too tired & overwhelmed! Congressional Leadership is cheering on this plan. We aren’t going to get anywhere with demanding action & accountability from Republican Representatives! So what do we do? Any ideas?

... I Just Wonder .. How much did this latest attempted distraction from the Child Rapist's hiding of his Sex Crimes cost ?? The American Tax Payer ...

President Trump has signed an executive order on mail voting. He has no lawful authority to write the rules that govern U.S. elections. He tried a year ago; we sued him, and we won. We expect the same result this time.

Fox News!!!

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

To be clear, when you threaten to murder an entire civilization, that’s not only a horrific threat to commit genocidal war crimes, it’s evidence for immediate removal from office as well as instant arrest for abuse of office and crimes against humanity. Stop normalizing this.

🇬🇧🤝🇺🇦✊

It's just insane how after 40 days of full scale war, we're essentially right back to where we were - the US demanding Iran surrender its enriched uranium and threatening to take it by force. This is far from being over.

He still needs to be removed from office. A war powers resolution will not suffice. He circumvented Congress to start the war. He circumvented them on tariffs and appropriations. Why anyone thinks he'd adhere to a Congressional war powers resolution is beyond me.

What you’ve seen on your phone cannot prepare you for the nightmarish reality.

I’ve been a journalist for 27 years. I’ve reported major stories about mass surveillance, torture, war, the military-industrial complex, police black sites, etc. But this is the most important story I’ve ever had the horror/honor to work on. For it is a story about the current phase of a genocide.

www.cnn.com/2026/03/26/p... Department of Homeland Security inspector general has launched an investigation into how contracts have been solicited and handled, including the involvement of former Secretary Kristi Noem and her de facto chief of staff Corey Lewandowski.

This is brilliant. Pass it on.

Keir Starmer has said he "will not buckle" as Donald Trump tries to pressure him into getting stuck into the Middle East conflict.

ICE CBP Are Felons October 14 2025 CBP in Chicago engaged in a dangerous car chase for 18 minutes against orders to stop. Video shows that agents ignored repeated direct orders to stop the pursuit, and crashed due to a tire blow out. They lied on their reports. unraveledpress.com/border-patro...
