This is not foreign policy, it’s a deranged mad man threatening to wipe out an entire country. It's past time. The 25th Amendment must be invoked.

There's simply no words to describe the danger of a U.S. President openly threatening to erase an entire civilization — and suggesting that this advances Jewish safety is an exploitation of our community to advance horrific war crimes. 📖 Our CEO @amyspitalnick.bsky.social full statement:

Donald Trump’s deranged threat to destroy “a whole civilization” in Iran is a threat to commit war crimes and genocide. Republicans in Congress must prevail upon VP Vance, now campaigning for Putin’s puppet Viktor Orban in Hungary, to return to the U.S. and invoke Section 4 of the 25th Amendment.

To be fair it was a tough decision at the ballot box

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”

This is simply genocidal language and is a horror in itself.

much better arguments than than this profound exaggeration to make this point....

same Overton Window-shattering tactic he’s always used: Even if worst doesn’t happen tonight - rhetorically he’s opened up possibility of the unimaginable, making lesser (but still horrible) actions seem moderate by comparison… all increasing likelihood that one day the worst really will happen

“I gave the order to knock out the biggest bridge” is an admission of a war crime.

Hard to believe this is even real

Yet even this sanewashes what this dangerous madman actually said

He understands their "economic insecurity."

"I think we should invest in our own people," says the toady from the administration that has slashed billions of dollars in federal funding for colleges and universities.

He means it this time.

‘Unhinged madman’: US politicians react to Trump’s expletive-laden threat to Iran

Has anyone studied the psychic toll of years spent waking up to the unhinged rantings of a vicious madman who could kill us all — and then going about one’s day per usual?

The NYT literally rewrote Trump saying “open the fuckin’ strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in hell” as: “Mr. Trump issued a new ultimatum to Iran to end its chokehold over the Strait of Hormuz”

what do we want? OBJECT PERMANENCE when do we want it? WHEN DO WE WANT WHAT

Will the NYT headline be “Increasingly erratic Trump threatens war crimes” or “President deliberates over war strategy”

Excellent reporting by NYT in finding the right "experts" who are "dubious" about this alleged case of teleporting....

Yeah, we needed to consult the experts on this one.

I know it’s competing with an illegal war and 10,000 other major scandals but I feel like people should be making a bigger deal out of the DefSec systematically trying to resegregate the military

780,000 settlers now live across 192 settlements and 350+ outposts in the West Bank. Israel controls 42% of the land. Palestinians are banned from building on 99% of Area C. Since 2023, 165 new settler outposts established — 89 in 2025 alone. 79 Bedouin communities displaced.

I keep seeing interviews with Marco Rubio, but not a single reporter has asked how he feels about Trump‘s argument in the birthright citizen case. Rubio was born here and his parents were not citizens at the time. They were naturalized four years after he was born.

I feel like “not starting a war with Iran” was a totally legit strategy, tbh
