Screenshot of a tweet by Rep. Ted Lieu stating that U.S. military law prohibits war crimes, including strikes on civilian infrastructure that cause disproportionate harm. The tweet warns that service members must disobey illegal orders and could face prosecution by a future administration if they commit war crimes.
Rep. Ted Lieu isn't backing down.
Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists.
Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.
It is. Hegseth and Miller have wanted a war with Iran forever.
Maybe the question should focus on the most amoral corrupt potus ever.
Insanity? Useful idiot? Utterly soulless? War criminal?
This is the scene on the White Bridge in Ahvaz, Iran
A human chain of adults and children spanning the bridge.
Never seen anything like it.

Great question.
#AbolishICE
He is so utterly pathetic and embarrassing and grotesque and cowardly and creepy and contemptible
He will of course now put this grimy theft on full display by situating his stolen trophy in the center of the Oval Office so that his risible, pimpish thuggery is in every TV shot
Machado wants to be the new president of Venezuela. She knows idiot Trump reacts positively to fake awards and over-the-top flattery.
It still says her name, and she still has the framed diploma and the money.
This is chilling and must be heard to believe. And the fact that this is where we are says everything.
Senate Republicans this week lambasted a U.S. program to assist Afghans who served alongside troops, saying it did not properly vet tens of thousands of people who fled to the U.S. following the Taliban takeover as American forces withdrew.
It seems as though ICE has been instructed to escalate the violence to justify more violence, and to create propaganda to make us forget we outnumber them 10,000 to 1.
A propaganda expert called out President Donald Trump's administration for "taking a page from ISIS" in social media campaigns boosting its immigration operations.
🚨BREAKING: ICE unleashes ONSLAUGHT of flash bang grenades and chemical ammunition at unarmed Minneapolis protesters in WAR-LIKE attack. Several protesters struck. Our reporter @zdroberts.bsky.social struck in the head.
"I got hit in the head really bad." LIVE NOW ⬇️
It will become increasingly important for people to take video and protect and save that video so that when there is finally an accounting for what’s happening, there will be evidence.
"Four respectable polls within the past few days now have Trump at 40 or 41 percent approval. Here’s a simple goal for the opposition: Get him down clearly into the 30s by the time of the State of the Union."
Her name is still engraved on it. Not Trump.
it's MIDNIGHT and there are still this many people left to testify
Today at Whipple Federal Building Greg Bovino made a brief appearance to over see his goons shooting flash bangs and pepper pellets at us. But the protesters were great to talk to. Please check out my work at @statuscoupnews.bsky.social and support them! StatusCoup.com/join

The need for his frail ego to be boosted will cost us, the taxpayers billions? He's NOT worth it. Time out, DJT.

Screenshot of a FactPost (X.com) post claiming federal contracts show Customs and Border Protection spending $75,000 to house dogs at the Four Seasons Pet Resort, describing ‘luxury suites,’ ‘daily doggy ice cream,’ and spa services. Below the text are two images: on the left, a close-up photo of a woman with long brown hair; on the right, a cropped screenshot of what appears to be a government contract or invoice document.
On the plus side, at least she's not shooting them.
"During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act."

Arizona is now investigating X over the creation and distribution of "potentially illegal and harmful content, including child sexual abuse imagery"
