Horror and shame: the US and Israel have killed almost 260 children wapo.st/4sbQzhS

Epic digital douchebaggery:The tech feudal lord dream is to impoverish and indenture women. Financed by us, with our own taxpayer dollars. Ladies and allies, it’s way past time to get mad and organize. newrepublic.com/post/207693/...

It's b/c the cruelty is the point: Had the Defense Department’s harm-reduction mission continued apace, current & former officials say, the policies almost certainly would’ve reduced the number of noncombatants harmed over the past year. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

I grew up in the suburbs and didn't live in a walkable neighborhood until my 30s. I consider that time, with a downtown office, some of the best years of my life. Not just fun, but developmental. Forced out by pricing, not a lack of desire. Make housing affordable. Make living in a city an option.

When I was a national security staff in the House, I went to the AirCommand and Staff College for the Air Force. It has always been obvious that bombing an exhausted population while expecting it to rise up and govern is just a wicked, twisted “airpower” fantasy.

the standard line is that we counter lies with more speech; but when the right owns all the major news outlets & social media platforms, the idea that the truth will magically overcome their lies is not serious. We need to remake the system @deanbaker13.bsky.social cepr.net/publications...

👀 pay attention to who is paying for in person face time with congressional staff. Especially on the most lavish trips. It will show up in law i.e what they heard over beers and in political culture i.e. a transactional view of public service. @sludge.bsky.social

To restore democracy, we must bring the First Amendment into the modern world--Assembly and Petition are the duties of Congress working with the American People. Here's an interview about my research on how we do this: rebootdemocracy.ai/blog/assembl...

Zombie capitalism’s offspring: see the American self made billionaires on this list making their fortunes on digital sharecropping and addiction.

The corruption and self-dealing of the Trump regime is staggering. One example, as reported by ProPublica: Thousands of companies are vying for billions of dollars in contracts to build a missile intercept system for the Department of Defense.

Difficult to emphasize just how much a generation of kids has been taught that being dishonest, superficial, and narcissistic is the pathway to attention and therefore success

the Trump administration has reorganized national security around two principles: more aggression, less accountability. @propublica.org www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Speaker Johnson could call the House back and vote to fund TSA today. Let’s be clear: long lines at the airports are a direct result of Republicans insisting ICE be able to defy court orders, kidnap and murder people and face zero consequences.

New Human Rights Watch report finds that the US Israel massacre of an elementary school in southern Iran has to be investigated as a war crime. The US and Israel had sufficient information and intel to know whether it was a school or not. www.hrw.org/news/2026/03...

We’re still murdering people in “drug boats” even as we start a new war in Iran. Six people today.

No mention in the headline/subhead that Trump’s takeover plot is wildly unconstitutional. The story is better & discusses GOP election subversion but still doesn’t note a fed takeover is unconstitutional (or that NC’s GOP takeover attempts were ruled illegal until they flipped the NC Supreme Court)

Who needs healthcare? Tomahawk missiles,made by the military contractor Raytheon, cost taxpayers $1.3 mil per missile. The Trump regime launched 400 missiles in the first 72 hours of its war against Iran. That’s over half a billion of our taxpayer $ to Raytheon act.citizen.org/page/95042/p...

The problem here/real damage, is long-term & that is the world used to operate on the 🇺🇲 operating system: our laws/we settled trades in dollars/we protected the shipping lanes—We just torpedoed a ship—we used to be the nation protecting others from rogue nations—we are the rogue nation. Thread 3/5🧵

🧵Feels like shouting into the void, but it is essential to note that the Trump/Rubio gutting of the State Department and blowtorching of US diplomatic capacity and credibility is an accelerant to this spiraling war and will seriously undercut US/allied efforts to pick up the pieces after. 1/

One authoritarian leader removing the authoritarian leader of another country and demanding uprising within their country is extremely ironic and will not end well.

A disturbing and hypocritical ruling on so many levels. Especially the due process holding. The court JUST said there’s no deeply rooted right for women to control their own bodies. But there is a deeply rooted right for parents to know if their kids question their gender at school? Come on.

We should not allow people to gamble on war or on human lives. Full stop.

We import from 16 countries. At one point, Trump threatened 50 percent tariffs on everything from the European Union. We have hundreds of products, and for some of them we had to change the price lists four times in a row. Thread 6/10🧵
