IDF bombs residential areas, US media frames it as a "whoopsie"

Pet your dogs, everyone, and appreciate that they have no idea what is happening in this fucked up world.

“A ceasefire is welcome, but if the terms Iran announced tonight are accurate, the United States and Israel are facing a truly humiliating defeat,” says @dawnmenaorg.bsky.social's @raedjarrar.bsky.social.

Truthout's @sharonzhang.bsky.social notes identical genocidal rhetoric from Trump, Netanyahu, and other Israeli leaders, whose eliminationist statements will be critical to proving intent to commit genocide at the ICJ. truthout.org/articles/tru...

“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” Trump wrote. “I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will."

Trump Threatens to Jail Journalists Who Received Leak About US Pilot Downed in Iran “We think we’ll be able to find it out because ...we’re going to say: ‘National security – give it up or go to jail,’” the president said. by @brettwilkins.bsky.social | Apr 6, 2026 www.antiwar.com/blog/2026/04...

“Some of the most important news stories in American history have come from confidential sources, including stories that have brought down corrupt presidents,” said one observer. “That’s why Trump is so obsessed with leaks. It has nothing to do with national security.”

“We stand firmly against war crimes, deliberate starvation, ethnic cleansing, genocide, and ecocide,” said one Greenpeace campaigner.

"This is going to be an ugly summer,” warned one expert.

Yes, but is anyone going to hold him accountable?

"Four Gen-Xers took a trip around the moon" isn't the setup of some joke, it's actually happening. Totally rad! 👾

“Once again, the offense of glorifying terrorism is being used to repress a Palestinian activist known worldwide for her fight against genocide,” lamented one attorney.

A nice reminder... and refresher on the conjugation of irregular -er verbs in Spanish 🤓

Outstanding news—but what fresh horrors lie ahead? www.commondreams.org/news/pam-bon...

While Iran reassures the American people that they are not the enemy and it does not want to harm them—and hasn't harmed them—Trump threatens to bomb Iranians "back to the stone ages" and kills nearly 2,000 Iranians, including hundreds of children

“The Bandero delivered a gentle but deliberate nudge to the stern of the Antarctic Sea, accompanied by a message: Stop despoiling the ecological integrity of the Southern Ocean,” said activists aboard the ship.

“The unspoken implication of the focus on diplomacy is that if Trump walks away without reopening the strait and without a deal with Iran, then Tehran holds the cards,” said one observer.

Today's House cafeteria daily special? Crap sandwich, with a slice of humble pie for dessert.

Watching racists rage over NASA's "DEI" Artemis II crew—when Trump and NASA explicitly banned DEI, with punishments for noncompliance—shows that too many white people, especially white men, can't bring themselves to believe that any woman or Black person could ever be qualified for the job at hand.

In the '80s, we'd pour sugar in their gas tank, stick a banana up the tailpipe, or lay slices of bologna on the paint. Only one of those things actually caused damage, and it was cosmetic. Of course, in the '80s we were also raised on a "real men don't mess with other people's cars" ethos 😅

UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk said the new law “raises serious concerns about due process violations, is deeply discriminatory, and must be promptly repealed.”

It's not at all hyperbolic to say that this is going to kill kids.

"Trump has shown he will abuse every inch of power we give him,” said one critic. “So you would think that given an opportunity to check his authority and protect Americans, Democrats would jump at the chance.”

"If the agency is going to allow such chemicals to be freely sold at Home Depot, Walmart, and farm supply stores, the very least the EPA must do is require a clear cancer warning on the label,” said one critic.

Renee Good and Alex Pretti died while *actually confronting* evil in action. I am not aspersing anyone for attending “No Kings” protests. Your hearts are in the right place.

Trump's oil embargo is killing Cubans. US sanctions have been killing Cubans for decades.

This, after a senior Pentagon official reportedly lambasted Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll over the promotion of a separate Black female general, telling him Trump wouldn't want to stand next to her.

Why does @democracynow.org keep inviting on guests who support legislation that would get trans people killed and probably lead to Democracy Now itself getting censored off the Internet? How is this acceptable?

The US airstrike massacre at a girls' school in Minab, Iran killed 168 people, more than 100 of them children.
