Iran believes (probably accurately) that the US is using negotiation as deception and planning for another round of attacks

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work. -- Charlotte Clymer‬

This illegal war must end. And Donald Trump needs to be removed from office.

We’ve gone from demanding freedom of navigation to fantasizing about toll booths in the ocean.

Unreal.

Hegseth said we’ve rendered Iran combat ineffective for years to come.

Just today, Iran has launched attacks at UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Israel, damaging critical infrastructure (desalinization plants, oil pipelines, etc)

Less than a week since they shot down an F-15 and an A-10.

Just because a President announces he’s agreed to a two week ceasefire moments before he threatened to commit war crimes, does not mean he is suddenly fit to serve. #25thAmendment

(I told you guys this last week)

Seriously, what the fuck is this.

This is completely deranged, and anyone who can’t say so is a coward.

We could be looking at one of the worst humanitarian crises in history tonight.

“He didn’t literally mean he would wipe out an entire civilization”

Then he shouldn’t have fucking said it.

He’s the President of the United States. He has sole launch authority over the world’s most sophisticated nuclear arsenal, and words mean things.

They absolutely will not act.

Nice little mask off moment for the GOP here

A reminder to folks:

A lot of folks were aware that a rescue mission was taking place.

Most kept their mouths shut until everyone was safely out of Iran.

Lives are more important than your engagement on social media.

Iran has been preparing for this eventuality for a long time. Their bunkers are well-built.

That’s one of the reasons we’ve always tried to avoid the military option, and it’s the main reason Hegseth telling Trump how easy this would be was so egregious.

Saw this online:

Did they remove the State Department Inspector General or whoever should have caught this? bsky.app/profile/rbre...

Never thought I’d see the President of the United States threatening to commit blatant war crimes on social media, but here we are.

Still can’t get over the House GOP rejecting a 100-0 bill from the Senate to fund TSA, Coast Guard, and FEMA and… just going on vacation.

Complete abdication of duty.

Somewhere in the North Korean Propaganda Ministry an official winces and says: “That’s a bit much.”

If talks were going very well, we wouldn’t be sending thousands of troops to the Middle East

IKR? Reporters aren’t asking Trump how “running” Venezuela is going. Why not? @npr.org @washingtonpost.com @nytimes.com @pbsnews.org

Stay safe

Watching both sides of this war blatantly manipulate the US stock market is maddening.

You know who’s a perfect metaphor for the GOP? Scott Jennings.

A pundit who mocks Trump with us during commercial breaks — but fawns over Trump when the camera is rolling.

Brave enough to speak out… in the green room.

Furkan Gözükara @FurkanGozukara "Israeli society has gone full fascist. It's like Berlin 1930." Abby Martin describes her horrifying experience in Jerusalem where every single person she spoke to espoused casual genocidal rhetoric against Palestinians. The footage speaks for itself.

I posted some footage of this docu before (the wheres waldo genocidal zionist nazi woman).

Chilling interviews from the streets of Israel. They openly call for carpet bombing and dropping nukes. Abby Martin explains how Israeli society is fully aware of the starvation and slaughter in Gaza, and they overwhelmingly support it.
