We’re at war and Republicans in Congress refuse to fund CISA, our nation’s cybersecurity agency.   Since he was sworn in, Trump has cut CISA’s staff by a third and has tried to cut their funding.   Clearly they don’t care about your safety.

Trump can only be removed under the 25th Amendment with the actions of this Republican vice president, this Republican cabinet, and this Republican-controlled Congress. So, if you're asking what Democrats are doing today, I'm not sure you understand how this all works.

A joke, of course, but the plausibility is why all these major media organizations need to be replaced by independent media

Congress needs to return to the Capitol immediately. We need a public hearings and to hold Trump accountable for this monumental failure. END

Trump said that Iran’s 10 pt proposal was “workable.” I finally had time to sit down and go through it and my jaw dropped as every point was so much worse than before the war. Military lives lost, billions of dollars spent, American families struggling…and for what? Let me explain. THREAD

This has been rampant. Even as we see the disaster of giving Republicans power, so much commentary, including here on Bluesky, jumps to blame Dems. They make up a fake reality about what Dems are doing and can do

Joseph Stalin famously asked, "How many divisions has the Pope?" during a 1944 or 1945 discussion with Winston Churchill, likely at the Tehran or Potsdam Conference. @christopherjhale.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/lettersf...

Incredible story of the Trump administration trying to intimidate the Vatican and the Pope. And an early failure of Colby's bankrupt international relations ideas that was unknown before

This story is extraordinary even by 2025 standards. Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, made a deal with Bukele and agreed to renege on informant agreements in a years-long DOJ investigation into MS-13, totally undercutting credibility of such agreements. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

A joke, of course, but the plausibility is why all these major media organizations need to be replaced by independent media

Trump went from making insane genocidal threats this morning to hyping the “golden age” of Iran hours later, and he received no concessions in between. He’s an absolute basket case who needs to be removed from power before he follows through on one of his mass murder fantasies.

In seriousness, I think that’s Oman’s role in the deal. Whatever tolls they get (don’t know if it’s really half), it’s their role to spend some to grease all the palms that Iran can’t or won’t. Iran can’t be seen bribing the man who killed the Supreme Leader, but Oman can.

Diplomacy has always been the answer, which is why the President shouldn’t have gotten us into this war of choice. It’s been reckless, cost U.S. soldiers their lives, and is raising prices on families. A ceasefire is a start, but Congress needs to do our jobs and end this war.

Escalating the war in Iran to this level of senseless destruction is an abomination, as well as against our interests as a country. Horrific inhumanity, and It puts us much more at risk. I have not seen nearly enough calling this out

All the decision-making in this Iran war is erratic and hurts US interests. The reports of the pre-war negotiations and gaming of the process and communications to DC are also highly suspect. This war needs to stop and we need to chase the massive failure and figure out how to recover

Certainly true. This Iran escapade is a strategic disaster for the US on multiple grounds, including for its moral authority and ammunition stockpiles

This debacle in Iran is really heavy. A lot of horrible things have been going on. Some irreversable, but not all. The many lives lost are of course irreversible tragedies. But the loss as we continue to wreck havoc with no plan seems especially damaging

Somehow the US was duped into thinking Trump could work diplomatic miracles and end major wars. But first Putin and now Netanyahu have humiliated Trump, and we see how weak and ineffectual Trump is in every domain

Trump in office is a constant reminder that he is incapable of doing the job and cannot keep us safe. His misadventures, whether pandemic planning, diplomacy or armed force, actively tear down systems that have protected Americans all our lives. He has to go

🚨 NEW REPORT 🚨 In ‘Taiwan matters’, Joe Keary, Nathan Attrill, Mark Harrison and Marc Ablong warn that even a limited Taiwan Strait disruption could trigger a global shock far exceeding recent crises, including the Middle East conflict, with direct consequences for Australia. 🔖: bit.ly/4sUcx9p

A ceasefire is good news—only because this purposeless war should be ended as soon as possible. The best time to cease fire was before the war began, & before Trump wasted tens of billions, cost thousands of lives, triggered global economic & energy crisis.

A guy was so horrified by what Trump did that he bought a full-page ad in the front section of the national Sunday New York Times — which costs somewhere north of USD $100,000 — asking him to resign

Instead of leaking to the press that he was opposed to the war, the VP should convene the cabinet immediately to invoke the 25th amendment and remove Trump from office. This is the time for leadership, and we will remember it when he runs for president.

I support this. We don't see enough resignations these days, and the number one example of who should resign is Donald Trump

The danger to our security is too great. Hegseth and Waltz need to resign. And so many lies afterwards, including under oath to Congress. Gabbard and Ratcliffe need to resign too

Catching up on the Alaska Summit aftermath, and it's all so pathetic. Trump is incapable of doing the job. He can't keep us safe. He wants to loot the country and weaken us and hurt our children's futures so a sick tyrant will smile at him. He should just resign. He needs to go

Trump should resign fr

The debacle at CDC shows how dysfunctional this government is. This chaos is directly under Secretary RFK Jr. He must resign and let the scientists do their jobs

Pete Hegseth is a disgrace who cannot direct our armed forces and was already caught spreading secure, critical defense information on unauthorized channels. Hegseth must resign

If the President is too incompetent and corrupt to execute the laws of the country faithfully then he can resign. It's the most profound affront to the nation that his lawyers argue in court that federal troops must be deployed because of Trump's colossal failures

Trump simply cannot do the job. He is temperamentally and intellectually unable to handle it, he's utterly corrupt, and he can't consider anything beyond his own narrow interest. Trump should resign. Failing that, he should be removed, but we need enough Rs for that

Trump has acted lawlessly in office and done immense damage to our economy, our standing in the world, and to so many lives and liberties. We are only now seeing some limits imposed, but the man is fundamentally incapable of performing the job. Trump should resign and let others rebuild

Trump is incapable of doing the bare minimum requirements of his office. He cannot keep Americans safe. He doesn't even care about our safety. Trump should resign

Are all the bonkers Trump tweets genuine? Saw a post from someone reputable warning about a false one. But now a lot of tweets are circulating that I can't easily check, and bonkers as they are, nothing is beyond this president. He needs to resign or be removed

What in the world? I've been busy and missed this abomination. Trump is spiraling. He needs to resign

Any “deal” that forestalls genocide is a good one, full stop. But Trump getting to make a big announcement claiming victory while casting himself as the savior is classic abuser behavior and will reward his brinksmanship. As always, there are the catastrophic options and just very bad ones.

NEW: A Democratic lawmaker is urging the Cabinet to remove Trump under the 25th Amendment — citing his threats to Iran and escalating attacks on voting rights and fair elections.

Oz Katerji's not as active over here, but if you're on the other site you need to be following him.

First unalloyed pushback from a Senate Republican is, unsurprisingly, from Lisa Murkowski.

The time to do something is now, and we must act.

Thune should immediately call the Senate back into session. Trump’s unhinged threats to commit massive war crimes against Iranian civilian targets show an increasing mental and moral instability we can’t ignore.

Vice President J.D. Vance has a moral, ethical, and constitutional obligation to invoke Section 4 of the Twenty-Fifth Amendment by securing the support from a majority of the cabinet to “immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.”

This is an unauthorized war of choice. And now our President is threatening that a "whole civilization will die tonight" – millions of innocent civilians. Americans don’t want this. They just want to pay their bills, afford their gas, and put food on the table.

AOC: “This is a threat of genocide & merits removal from office. The President’s mental faculties are collapsing & cannot be trusted. To every individual in the President’s chain of command: You have a duty to refuse illegal orders. That includes carrying out this threat”

Rep. Nathaniel Moran (R-Texas) is the first House Republican to speak out against Trump's genocidal threat against Iran. "I do not support the destruction of a 'whole civilization.'" www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...

Whoa 🤯 The Moon, in full eclipse, with the #Artemis II Orion spacecraft. Part of the Moon and spacecraft are lit by Earthshine, and both Saturn and Mars are visible to the lower right. Incredible. Details: images.nasa.gov/details/art0...

BREAKING: Senate Democrats slam proposed rule from weaponized Trump DOJ that would block state bar associations’ ethics probes.

This is a power grab by a weaponized Trump Justice Department. State bar associations investigate ethical misconduct of all barred attorneys. The Trump DOJ can’t be trusted to investigate DOJ attorneys. State bars should continue to independently investigate.

By my count, there are now over 50 House Democrats, along with two Senate Democrats, who have called for Trump to be impeached or removed via the 25th Amendment for his post on Iran. More here: www.axios.com/2026/04/07/t...

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.
