Seems to me like Trump is desperately begging Iran to sign a replica of the Obama JCPOA he tore up. All for the low low price of thousands dead, global instability, high energy prices, and a toll on ships through the once-free strait of Hormuz.

Shoutout to The Atlantic reporters for publishing these massive scoops instead of waiting years to put them in a book.
In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
The Israeli historian Omer Bartov argues in his new book that a “state ideology” of Zionism has led to what he calls genocide in Gaza. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.
"In immigration detention, he missed 4 out of 5 chemotherapy sessions scheduled in his fight against aggressive lymphoma.
A scan last month showed the cancer had spread into his bone marrow.
“I was in shock, seeing those little dots,” he said of the scan...”

The allegory is so loud it's giving me a headache.
BREAKING: After ProPublica published letters written by children at the Dilley concentration camp, ICE officers raided the dormitories and confiscated the children's letters. I'm suing ICE to get them back. I'll explain it all in 45 minutes on @meidastouch.com here: www.youtube.com/live/H-D8SzR...
No Kings protest sign in Princeton, New Jersey!
Nailed it!
In case anyone forgot how incoherent this administration’s policies are… we just removed sanctions on a nation we’re actively at war with.
Oh well, at least the cowards in the GOP will have to spend the weekend trying to explain how this won’t fund the war for Iran (it will).
When I lived in a different country, religious extremists called on God to curse a politician they loathed. A month later, a religious extremist assassinated Rabin.
One of the religious extremists who fomented & incited that violence is today Israel's genocide-loving Minister of National Security.
1/2. He took the greatest military force in history, lost a war to a middle power in a week, begged the world to save him, & demanded the media lie about this & everything else. I try, but at a simple human level I do not see how anyone mistakes this man’s almost supernatural weakness for strength.
Republicans blamed Hillary for 4 dead in Benghazi. They blamed Biden for 13 dead in Afghanistan.
Trump’s war has already left 13 U.S. troops dead in just three weeks. Where’s the GOP outrage now?
It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.
Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.
Emmanuel Damas, another individual killed in ICE custody.
He had a toothache. They ignored it. He died of spesis. Read that again.
Why do we need to fund this murderous agency?

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that
Excuse me?

Another reminder that not all the activism you see is visible
New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:
We obtained the Dilley detention center’s 911 call logs.
Among them are pleas for help for toddlers having trouble breathing, a pregnant woman who passed out and an elementary-school-aged girl having seizures.
More people need to read these emails.
They show that Epstein, with the help of Norway’s former prime minister, tried to help Russia blackmail Trump.
The emails:
There is a conceivable future in which Jews in America are put in concentration camps. This would occur if the extreme antisemites/far right win the civil war for the future of the Republican Party.
This is not a wild idea: people are already being placed in camps. We would just be one more group.
GOOD TROUBLE: Call your dem members of Congress and tell them to boycott the State of the Union *unless* they’re one of the members escorting Epstein survivors.
thinking about how Savannah Guthrie had to cancel her trip to work the Olympics because of her mom’s kidnapping but the guy who heads up the investigative body handling the case was posting pictures of himself in the US hockey locker room today lol
So the President of the United States illegally taxed our groceries, clothes, and other basics goods for nearly a year.
Where’s our refund?
