If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

The plan would mandate voter ID and ban mail-in balloting, and calls on Trump to issue an executive order announcing both measures. trib.al/vQzhsRB

This is the thing that blew up a girl's school and killed 85 children right?

Nope. We don't have to do this. The courageous act would be to refuse. Jingoist slop like this is an enormous factor in why the US has been terrorizing the world for decades. There are no heroes bombing Iran.

the incentives here are so obscenely terrible that the entire thing should be illegal by default “I am sabotaging negotiations because I stand to make piles of money on Polymarket” is absolutely in play, what a horrifying clusterfuck

The pro-peace candidate does it again.

sure the pedophile felon president just illegally bombed a country that may have nukes while federal forces under his command murder and harass people in america and immigrants are tortured and he moves forward with plans to build concentration camps and sorry idk where i was going fuck all of this

Senate President Warren Petersen less than two hours after appearing at the local "March for Life" rally: You hate the USA if you don't support bombing a school full of students.

really one of the strangest media cycles in history, where mainstream media actively hid the fact that the columbine killers were popular upper class preppy kids with full on neo-nazi ideologies and instead pretended they were victims of bullying

"the bombings will continue until world peace is achieved" glad we've finally got the Trump Doctrine sorted

We said this last September. The attack on Iran will not be the last imperialist military adventure of the Trump regime. If he can consolidate enough power to do so, Trump will behave towards Latin America and even Europe the way Putin does towards Ukraine. With horrific consequences for all.

This is the exact sort of fecklessness from Dems that got us into Iraq, Afghanistan and let Trump seize power. Trump has launched an illegal war, is killing civilians, bombing girls’ schools and the response is “please follow the rules”? No War with Iran - and get these people out of power.

I swear to Christ I think I would vote for a candidate who just used capitalization correctly

A long time ago, I used to know a lot about foreign-imposed regime change (FIRC) and study them. I guess that makes me qualified to write a thread about them, especially in wake of Trump bombing Iran. So here goes nothing. 🧵

It's amazing how much the media is training us to just not give a shit. 20 years ago, this would have been wall to wall coverage on every channel. Today, it's regularly scheduled TV and not even a banner.

Donald Trump sent an aircraft carrier w/o working toilets to start a war of choice. There's a metaphor there. militarywatchmagazine.com/article/us-n...

Trump called for the US military to use US cities as "training grounds" to prepare for overseas wars. From Minneapolis to Iran, we face the same enemies. Rival warlords attempting to assert control over collapsing empires—that is becoming the dominant form of governance. crimethinc.com/IranWar2026

You may wonder why they are so tone deaf. They aren’t. They know. They know you disagree. They don’t care. They want what they want. The question you should ask yourself is: “is it democracy?” When you elect a representative for your “representative democracy” but they don’t represent you?

If you’re a Democrat in Congress who is considering supporting Trump’s illegal war in Iran, please consider self-immolation instead.

Here's one for the housing nerds! @houseourneighbors.bsky.social and @mayorofseattle.bsky.social hard work to pass HB 1687 paid off -- the Senate approved the bill and including Social Housing Developers in the Housing Cooperation law is off to the Governor's desk!!! #waleg

Translation: Scott Jennings thinks you’re a moron

Your opposition to war can just be that war is evil. it doesn’t have to be more complicated than that.

BREAKING: Iranian drone hit the five-star Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai, UAE. The 321-meter, 60-story tower stands on an artificial island.

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres: “Military action carries the risk of igniting a chain of events that no one can control in the most volatile region of the world"

Yeah … He doesn’t personally want to be on the record, but he’ll make sure Republicans have enough votes to do it. capitalandempire.com/p/top-democr...

Is that... good?

Doctorow proposed that congressional Democrats launch a “Nuremberg Caucus.” People need to be held responsible for the corruption, concentration camps, and executions of US civilians by federal goon squads. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

People really struggling with the idea that the Iranian government sucks but we shouldn't be bombing them can both be true, eh?

The US has waged many wars—but this is one of the most senseless we’ve ever seen. www.thenation.com/article/worl...

i think it would be in the interest of all americans to adopt this view if they have not already bsky.app/profile/hels...

The government illegally took your money. They won’t give it back.

I remember living in a state that cared about climate change.

It’s looking more and more like Trump squeezing Anthropic was just in service of the other tech oligarchs Sam Altman and Elon Musk

He’s a dictator. We are under a dictatorship. We have been. He been ignoring laws for months.

From November 2024. I don't believe Trump is in control of this war. I worry about how he may try to control it now that the war is here. sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/just-answe...

As Trump gets less popular and less powerful, he leans into presidential prerogative powers were his powers have few real limits. Trump's character predicts it. It's a form of compensation and presidential self-care.

It will never stop being grimly funny that the person that evangelicals and tradcaths support so assiduously is more or less Satan incarnate. Really, uh, revealing of some things there.

The Department of Defense becoming the Department of War was a tell.

cool that the two legal methods for removing the incompetent, incoherent, sundowning, criminal president are a) his cabinet, who are all worse than he is, or b) congress, which I'm pretty sure no longer exists other than to hold show trials

Obama signed a peace deal. It was working extremely well. Trump ripped it up and started a war instead.

Almost certainly true, and another opportunity to remember that Netanyahu would willingly trade away the safety of every Jew on earth to save his own political career and avoid going to prison for his crimes.

What in the actual fuck

Everyone is just trying live our lives—watch our little stories, have our little snacks—and these motherfuckers are doing absolutely everything possible to put an end to that.

Worth noting that Japan using peace talks with Washington as cover for their sneak attack on Pearl Harbor is one of the reasons we were so fucking furious at them on December 8, 1941. It's WHY FDR called it a Day of Infamy

It's almost darkly funny that Hegseth spent yesterday shaking down the Boy Scouts over trans kids and publicly feuding with a chatbot company, knowing full well that he was about to throw us into World War III hours later.

If think Trump is getting the military used to taking illegal orders.

BREAKING — 51 Iranian children are dead after a strike hits Minab girls elementary school in Iran.

Last month, we teamed up with YouGov to ask voters in Minnesota and Michigan their opinions on Democratic leadership. The results paint a clear picture: Chuck Schumer is one of the most staggeringly unpopular politicians in America.
