HUGE: J Street now backs blocking all aid to Israel, including for “defensive” weapons like iron dome. Just weeks ago this was a controversial position for Democrats, now J Street is backing it. A few years ago a Democrat could get censured for holding this position. @AOC moving on this moved the field.

Significant strikes hit the American base in Syria, Al Tanf, no fatalities, significant damage and fires. Two shahed drones suspected, I’m told

Egypt's Intel Observer @EGYOSINT The Asab Central Degassing Station in Abu Dhabi has been burning for over a week after being hit by Iranian strikes. The facility is a key part of the UAE’s oil production system, processing up to about 720,000 barrels per day by separating gas from crude and stabilizing it into Murban, the country’s main export grade. https://x.com/i/status/2038669232934642170

The damage being done to the global economy just tonight is going to be felt for years. Petrochemical plants in Saudi and Iran on fire, oil fields in the UAE burning.

This is absolutely insane.

Janet Mills just pulled out of a second debate with Graham Platner in Topsham scheduled for April 11, according to the debate moderator. She previously declined to participate in a debate organized by the Wabanaki nations.

(After he wins, maybe there should be a truth and reconciliation commission or something to allow all of his haters back into polite society? Something has to be done)

Thanks!

We don’t thank people here enough for self-deporting from the national political conversation.

Can you imagine if the toxicity on display here was broadcast regularly to the American public? Thank you for quarantining.

Tweet from Ryan Grim: NEWS: The Claire Valdez campaign ( @claireforny ) raised $750,000 from more than 11,200 unique donors during its first reporting period — average contribution of $53.73. No word yet on Antonio Reynoso, who principal challenger. Valdez is backed by Mamdani and Justice Dems. Reynoso by the outgoing @NydiaVelazquez"

11,200+ people funded this campaign — no corporate cash, no AIPAC, no real estate, no AI or crypto. I'm humbled and energized by all of you.

Together we'll prevail on June 23rd and build the movement to take on the oligarchs and deliver the dignity working people deserve.

José Luis Granados Ceja @GranadosCeja Shortest political honeymoon ever? Even I’m surprised at how far and how fast Kast has fallen in his approval ratings.

Vera Bergengruen @VeraMBergen Remarkable turn for Chilean President José Antonio Kast, less than three weeks into his term. Polls show support is tumbling amid a backlash to the biggest fuel-price increases since at least 1980 and mounting street protests.

Kast is an actual Pinochet-loving fascist so I have no sympathy for him but man, I would not want to have been elected a new leader of a country in the past month with the global economy about to spin out of control.

Hello and goodbye, Sr. Presidente!
