I’m very skeptical that an air campaign alone could do it, even with Israel and France joining. That’s the biggest issue with regime change in Iran - we don’t know who the heir apparent would be in a forced change. Look at all the chaos in Syria right now. These things never work out like we want.

Thanks to Susan Collins, Rs now claim to have secured 51 votes in the Senate & will thus move into the phrase of pressuring Senators to nuke the filibuster. If this pressure campaign succeeds, their voter suppression bill, the Save America Act, becomes law. Thread. #NoOnSave

JUST IN: Knight 1st Amend. Institute & American Oversight ask 11th Circuit to force Judge Aileen Cannon (Trump) to release Vol. II of Special Counsel Jack Smith's report AND to block her from ordering it destroyed as Trump's co-defendants have asked. Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/27...

Repeat after me: An executive order is not a royal edict; it is not law. It is a direction to the executive branch as to how to carry out the law. Also: Key parts of Trump's last EO on elections have been stopped by federal courts, ruling that the President has no role to play in federal elections

Adding a LLM to the suite gives options like “analyze all ISR data from ___ in the last 24hrs” This is giving analysts the ability to process MASSIVE amounts of information in a short period of time. It makes targeting faster, helps plan ingress and egress routes, etc. It’s a lot. 2/2

Another reason to oppose Trump’s attempt to take over elections through the SAVE Act.

Every single time a story like this is reported, we must assume that there are many many more that do not.

"Previous estimates showed the US economy generated 584,000 jobs in 2025, the first year of Trump’s second term, which was deeply discouraging. Now, the picture is far worse: The newly revised, final data shows that the U.S. economy actually added only 181,000 jobs..." www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive. It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water. Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Just so we’re all clear, this doesn’t revoke the findings. You can’t revoke reality. It’s undoing regulations, not rebutting the science with new information.

When Pam Bondi was Florida's Attorney General, and was busy ignoring Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, much like now, she took a $25,000 bribe from Donald Trump to drop her investigation into consumer fraud at Trump University. Donald knew she'd be a corrupt US AG and do as she was told.

Gov. Tim Walz: "They left us with deep damage. Generational trauma. Economic ruin in some cases. The left us with many unanswered questions. Where are our children? Where and what is the process of the investigation into those that were responsible for the deaths of Renee and Alex?"

Pete Hegseth used an untested laser system powerful enough to down drones, blind pilots & damage planes without notifying the FAA, forcing Sean Duffy to shut down airspace over El Paso, all because they thought we were under attack by what turned out to be… party balloons?!
