Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs: There are no direct talks between Tehran and Washington. The U.S. president’s statements are part of efforts to reduce energy prices and buy time to implement his military plans.

Honestly, between the 25 years of war, the complete dissolution of the common bonds of society, regular school shootings, and entire generations raised on ultraviolent media, I wouldn’t be shocked if FPV videos of US troops getting killed is met with either a shrug or edgy memes bt the US public.

Hi, political scientist here. Did you know we have an extensive body of research and theory that says if people believe you will violently betray them, they are less likely to enter into an agreement with you? I swear to God I have a real, non-bullshit job.

Obama destroyed more migrant families than Trump, separated families at the border, and detained kids in cages. He also started an illegal war in Lybia that destabilized the country so badly it still hasn’t recovered over a decade later and supported a genocide in Yemen killing 1million civilians.

"To love someone is to strive to accept that person exactly the way he or she is, right here and now." - Fred Rogers In loving memory of the beloved and forever impactful Emmy/Grammy-winning television icon, minister, advocate, and pillar of true human decency on his 98th birthday.

In a parallel universe shitlibs are telling leftists why it’s necessary that Kamala authorize strikes Iran so we can have a say in and limit how much Israel destroys and that a limited ground invasion isn’t a forever war.

Keep calling out every time Israel, BBC, Friends of Israel, Starmer equate antisemitism with protest at Israeli genocide in Palestine pretending to care about Jewish people while putting them in danger meme via Cloaked Truth

It’s because he doesn’t have Toby Keith to write a stupid fucking song to get the dumbest people you know really really fucking excited about a stupid war that will fuck them over 🇺🇸

This is as depraved and abhorrent as a government can get.

Morning Bluesky.

Let's be clear: you would not be pulling THAADs from South Korea and moving a Marine Expeditionary Unit from Japan to the Gulf two weeks after launching a war on Iran if you had properly anticipated the fallout it would be likely to cause.

"I'm willing to take a not guilty. I'm willing to take a no true bill." What she means is she's willing to bring legally deficient cases that harass innocent defendants, waste her line prosecutors' time, and makes her office look like jerkoffs in front of judges and juries.

✋ Former USG war crimes lawyer here. Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning: Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime. And recognized as such by the US Government. From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

BREAKING: 4 drones stolen from secure facility after FBI warns of possible drone attacks. The threat was not announced by Iran, but by the FBI, BEFORE multiple drones were reported missing from a secure U.S. military facility at Fort Campbell.

MrBeast competition to see who can make it through the Strait of Hormuz

The shipping industry when the self-proclaimed defender of the global commons causes the strait to be mined and then tells everyone they are on their own:

Truly a perfect news alert

On the one-year anniversary of his detention by federal authorities, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and First Lady Rama Duwaji welcomed Mahmoud Khalil, his wife Noor, and their baby boy, Deen, to Gracie Mansion to break the fast together.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps: Any Arab or European country that expels the ambassadors of Israel and the United States from its territory will, starting tomorrow, have full authority and freedom to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.

Brian Kilmeade tells B-17’s to fly to Regensburg without escorts: “Show some guts and fly through and and do it”

Always remember the time in October of 1975 when 90% of women in Iceland went on strike: zero paid work, housework, or child-rearing were done for the entire day. The entire economy drove to a halt, men were forced to take on unpaid labour, and everywhere sold out easy-to-make meals like sausages.

So much “winning.” 🙄

Disabled people tried to warn you. We said the “better off dead” narrative being weaponized against us would be used for other groups of people. The fascists won’t ever stop. They see everyone else as less than. Expendable. Not worthy of life. Its eugenics on a massive scale

If Jesus Christ returned today to see the things being carried out in his name, he’d never stop vomiting.

So much online conservatism these days is just "I miss being a kid"

To the liberals saying “we told you so”, no you didn’t. You offered us more wars and millions of deportations from a softer and politer government. ICE raids and mass incarceration but not disrupting brunch. You don’t hate Trump, you hate he exposes the evil foundation of the things you want to do.

How high can gas prices go before Americans return to monkey? I think we forget how to make basic tools by seven dollars a gallon.

Happy International Women's Day. 🏴

It's the middle of the night in Chicago. Reporters and electeds are trying to figure out why a US citizen was detained by CBP, why her phone was inside an ICE detention center tonight, and where she is now. Also unclear what happened to the other five people she was detained with at O'Hare airport.

To the pilot who dropped the bomb and all active US service members. This is what you get for following orders. You’re not serving America. You’re not defending freedom. You’re not heroes. You’re common thugs with the blood of children on your hands.

Reuters Exclusive "U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school." "The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the ​Middle East."

Congratulations to future Iranian Supreme Leader Kushner

Good news! The new Secretary of Homeland Security never murdered a puppy. Bad news:

NOEM TAKING QUESTIONS - DOES NOT APPEAR TO KNOW SHE WAS FIRED

www.npr.org/2026/03/05/n... Please listen Rs in Wisconsin, WTAF Im not the sharpest but good lord this guy and a paper bag But also the arguments are so transparently ridiculous The talking points the administration gave their toadies are pathetic He literally is arguing against democracy itself

In case you needed any more proof that corporate media is built on a foundation of white supremacy...

America used AI to pick targets and as a result we bombed a fucking school. There is a mass grave for the children we slaughtered and another for their teachers. Fuck AI. Fuck this administration and the US government. And a huge fuck you to the people pushing this ridiculous nonsense propaganda.

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist. He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

I know it's not on the top of anyone's list of cares, but it was actually depressing seeing the trailer for the new Scary Movie just being "haha pronoun jokes" and "we aren't woke." It's not just that it's going to be a bad movie. It's that "movie money" saw that as a safe bet in today's society.

A casserole. They invented a casserole. TACTICAL ALPHA BOY KIBBLE

Two days into the war: - three F-15s shot down - U.S. embassy in Saudi Arabia in flames - six U.S. service members confirmed dead; more wounded - State Department tells Americans to flee the entire Middle East

One thing the war planners must have considered is since the war started with the assassination of the Ayatollah and some of his key repressors in government, that the longer this war drags out, and the more bombs fall across Iran, the more the Iranian people's joy of Khamenei gone would depreciate.
