The fact that Donald Trump didn’t follow through on his threats of committing genocide doesn’t mean we should move on from the fact that he threatened to commit genocide.

Opinion | As a principled online leftist, I am outraged by Trump and Netanyahu's campaign of violence in the Middle East. I demand that Kamala Harris hold a book signing so I can publicly protest this atrocity.

To sum up: You should stop lecturing us the only way to do things is through bipartisan legislation when our opponents find all other sorts of ways to do things. Propaganda isn't bad, it's a political necessity. Unless you're disagreeing with one of those two things don't reply.

Local TV leads its Iran coverage by saying the "deal" includes "reopening" the Strait of Hormuz, but then adds that Iran will manage the Strait and charge fees. So, the Strait is *less* accessible than before the war. Media outlets don't need to accept the administration's framing of this ceasefire.

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

When Trump blinks tonight, remember...we may have dodged a disaster temporarily based on a pathetic face-saving ploy...but there is still a raving lunatic in charge of the world's strongest military.

I've been saying it for months: Donald Trump needs to go.

"Something something Americans' learned helplessness! They should be Doing Something!" Sorry, but unfortunately, no, I will not be overthrowing the United States government.

Donald Trump has lost his mind, and his threats to wipe out the Iranian people should be taken seriously. He’s out of control and his cabinet and those around him must be loyal to the Constitution and invoke the 25th Amendment. He must be removed.

We are watching a dangerous and unfit President drag this country toward catastrophe — and Republicans refuse to act. Invoke the 25th Amendment. Do your fucking job.

I will never dine with Donald Trump. You will never see me attend a fancy event with him sitting on the dais. I choose instead to fight him in court. In 2020, I started Democracy Docket to be a media outlet that shares my values. If you agree, subscribe now: bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Every elected Republican in the country is complicit.

Before it happens, let me remind you that one of the strongest argument for the total abolition of nuclear weapons has always been that anything that can happen will eventually happen, for instance a deranged senile autocrat who would obliterate a country while not noticing he is shitting on himself

I think we’re at this point.

The emperor has no clothes. Time for the #25thAmendment. Congress and the Cabinet must act.

This is particularly enjoyable because #Apple CEO, #TimCook, has so completely kissed the ass of the orange felon since day one. www.cbsnews.com/news/apple-d...

He is a caricature of human. Yet 77+Million morons voted for this asshole. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♀️

This is hilarious! 🤣 "Someone draft a statement calling this 'Biden's War'" 🤣

"After the Second World War, the General Electric Corporation created an in­ternal propaganda department to fight unions, then pitched that propaganda to the country with the help of an actor, the future President Ronald Reagan." lfg

Bingo.

The Trump administration is attempting to dismantle the U.S. Forest Service. The goal is to cause constant chaos so you can’t follow what’s happening day to day. Here is what’s going on. BREAKING: The administration just announced a sweeping restructuring and it’s as bad as it sounds.

they always act like this is some gotcha for the left but "everyone should be able to use the same good stuff instead of having two totally seperate tiers of society based on wealth" is the whole fuckin point of the left!

hmm

Pam Bondi is a symptom of a problem that emanates from the Oval Office; shuffling deck chairs is a meaningless distraction if the policies and practices at DOJ go unaltered

A reminder that last week, Pam Bondi accidentally released a Jack Smith memo revealing Trump’s motive for stealing and illegally retaining classified documents.

But the Dow!!!!!

apparently the president will be holding a press conference later where he pretends the war is winding down, on literal April Fools day

I have been thinking of Matthew 6:5-6 a lot lately

Yes, the T word has finally surfaced. Appropriately.

"Not THAT kind of litmus test..."

The whole Iran war is looking more and more like a gimmick to drop energy sanctions on Russia and pressure Europeans to do the same. A war to make Russia’s much larger war easier and possible to sustain.

Republicans can end this any time they want to. The issue of this era is a broken congress. Unable to protect themselves from moneyed interests or a new media ecosystem. Unable to pass needed reforms, relying on the executive and judiciary to do congress' job. Unable to put country above party.

"It's not that kind of oral, Mr President." * Zipped up his pants and stormed out.

If Trump signs an unconstitutional Executive Order to take over voting, we will sue. I don't bluff and I usually win.

The phrase “war crimes” appears nowhere in the Constitution, so it’s hard to understand what the Democrat Party thinks is wrong with Pete Hegseth. by Jonathan Turley

. Just so everyone remembers . . . . .

can someone who does military history tell me if the side that raises its recruiting age to admit old stoners is usually the side that's winning

The US bombed a primary school in Iran, killing 168 girls. Why is nobody talking about this anymore? These abominable war crimes should not be forgotten — and nor should the lives, hopes and dreams of human beings who were slaughtered with impunity.

I was at a #NoKings rally yesterday and rather than writing another essay about why this matters I will just say that it is pure joy to meet the people who want to stand out and the people who are doing the work. Thank you.

Too dumb to see it, too narcissistic to listen to good advice.

The Strait Story Donald Trump is more David Duke than David Lynch, but his plans to re-open the Strait of Hormuz are even more far-fetched than driving a lawnmower across the state of Iowa. by Maureen Dowd

Please, please, please.

We are deciding right now whether we want to be a country with concentration camps and ethic cleansing.

America needs a comprehensive New New Deal. Infrastructure, education, healthcare, housing, and green energy should be prioritized. You want an economic boom? Fix the damn railroads, make education and healthcare accessible and free. You want to have a country with a future, get the hell off oil.

Heroism, horror and the ‘pits of hell’: inside the last days of El Fasher Over two days in October 2025, up to 10,000 people are believed to have been massacred; a further 40,000 civilians are still unaccounted for. This is the story of what happened www.theguardian.com/global-devel...
