Former New Mexico Attorney General Balderas details how the FBI forcefully shut down New Mexico's criminal probe into what was up at Epstein's Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe Co. The feds insisted that they were running their own criminal probe and that NM's involvement would not be tolerated. It was a lie.

Sen Chris Murphy (D-CT) to Face the Nation: “I don't have any obligation to fund a Department of Homeland Security that is violating the law every day, just like I don't have any obligation to support this war that is illegal as well.”

Seems like a thing more people should be mad about

Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.

“It’s a choice to ensure zero abortions." Since July, more than a dozen pregnant children have been moved to a single facility in the small town of San Benito, along the south Texas border. The children kept in Texas are as young as 13, and about half are pregnant because of rape.

THANK YOU to all those making 3D printed tiny whistles so we can warn folks when ICE is in the neighborhood. It takes a village to protect each other when a fascist xenophobic regime is kept in power by spineless sycophants.

NEWS: In 2019, the Trump DOJ took over New Mexico’s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch — telling the state to stand down and turn over its findings. According to officials and newly unsealed records, the probe soon fizzled after the federal takeover. Link to NYT reporting in reply.

Some U.S. lawmakers have raised questions about whether bets on assassinations should be allowed.

Maternally Jewish. Many relatives died in the Holocaust. A number of relatives live in Israel, some in kibbutzim. I wish Netanyahu believed in peace half as much as he believes in bribery, AIPAC, war crimes, and crimes against humanity.

Israel targeted a Tehran hospital. Will we be told the IRGC has a vast underground compound beneath it? We’ll see.

The thing about the U.S. and Israel is that both of their leaders are trying to stay out of prison.

Israel, immediately after vaporizing a bunch of little girls:

I don’t remember Trump talking about military action against Iran on the campaign trail. Or Venezuela. Or Greenland.

In the meantime, the Senate must immediately vote on Senator Kaine’s War Powers Resolution to block this illegal military campaign.

He owes it to the American people he promised he would always put first to immediately come before Congress and attempt to justify how this illegal war will serve their interests.

Donald Trump cannot stop breaking his promises. By illegally striking Iran, Trump made a choice—one he did not have to make—that puts American lives and national security at risk while threatening to draw us into yet another expensive, tax-payer funded forever war without Congressional approval.

If there was ever a time for Republicans to find their spines, it’s now, when the Commander in Chief readily admits that he is choosing to put our troops’ lives at risk without a legitimate threat to our homeland or citizens.

This nation learned the hard way that an unnecessary war, with no plan for what comes next, can lead to years of chaos and put America in still greater danger.

The President has launched our nation and our great military into a war of choice, risking American lives and resources, ignoring American law, and endangering our allies and partners. It does nothing to help with the urgent problems here at home that Americans face every day.

We all know that troops killed and wounded under a Republican president are just “the price of freedom”. Under a Democrat, it’s an outrage, a sign of incompetence, and an impeachable offense.

Iran didn’t threaten our freedom, Trump does.

Ted Cruz: "I have no indication they were anywhere close to getting nuclear weapons"

These guys were selling t-shirts until they needed a war to cover up the intentional damage they did to the economy and the president's involvement in a pedophilia scandal.

A standing reminder: a small handful of Republicans in Congress could stop this chaos tomorrow. They simply choose not to.

I promise you that the government that murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good does not give a flying fuck about the protests in Iran.

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres: “Military action carries the risk of igniting a chain of events that no one can control in the most volatile region of the world"

What does it mean if the administration's strike on Iran wasn't lawful? It's not an abstract debate. First principles, like the rule of law, determine whether we live in a country governed by laws or by impulse. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Following a white man to war because you disliked the sound of a black woman laughing will go down in American history as one of the dumbest acts of self-sabotage ever.

An independent investigation is needed for the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ elementary school massacre in Minab. The culprits, whether it's the US, Israel, or Iran, need to be brought to justice in an independent international court, and the truth must be protected.

i wouldn't expect the trump admin to care or think it through its illegality, but the us now seems to believe the killing of another state's leader is legitimate state policy. so what is its argument against others doing the same, anywhere in the world? where would it draw lines?

“The point is that both Hitler and Stalin held out promises of stability in order to hide their intention of creating a state of permanent instability.” ― Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism

Trump ripped up the Iran nuclear deal and created this mess. Now, he's putting servicemembers in harm's way with no clear plan and no Congressional approval. The American people deserve answers — and Congress needs to do its job.

No wonder Trump went to war with Iran in the dead of night, with the Capitol empty, most Americans soundly asleep This war is illegal. Full stop. The worst abuse of presidential power in American history aims to cement a dictatorship on U.S. soil My instant column www.inquirer.com/opinion/trum...

How to understand war with Iran? We must get away from propaganda. Facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the United States. snyder.substack.com/p/why-attack...

A crazy time to NOT HAVE FOREIGN CORRESPONDENTS!!!

If the Democrats take power, subpoenas to polymarket and kalshi regarding accounts that bet on Iran and Venezuela are a giant fucking gimme, no?

Nothing is more American than grifting off dead school children. Alex jones made a career out of it.
