I think it’s for the same reason you can have entire threads about wishcasting Trump’s death but they draw the ban line @ joking at a Era Raytheon employee about sabotaging some missiles the employee was hoping to win the contract of.

How The Supreme Court Could Legalize Trump’s Iran War A congressional showdown over the Iran War could provide conservative justices their long-awaited chance to let presidents launch wars without any limits or authorization.

NEW: In video unearthed by @levernews.com, Alito was asked if a president could invade Iran with no authorization - his answer & a John Roberts memo suggest the court’s conservatives aim to kill the War Powers Act & enshrine presidents' power to launch wars with no congressional approval.

To understand what's happening in Iran today, you have to know about the history of Western intervention in the country.

In the early 1900s, the British secured oil rights in the country until 1993, where they only agreed to pay Iran 16% of the total profits.

This was seen as an unfair deal. 🧵

I’m always weary of anyone making “I don’t like Trump, BUT” comments, or anecdotal posts of the joy of people in the diaspora, or faux erudite appeals to nuance and bridge too far critiques.They’re just impotency traps for disarming consciousness & discourse around the reality’s of US imperialism.

Master Plan | Listen Now Master Plan, a podcast by The Lever, reveals the gripping inside story of how extremists and tycoons orchestrated a system of legalized corruption in America.

Feels like a good time to recommend one of the best pieces of political media of the last decade that details why and how what the Democrats just did will continue to happen. Anyone that thinks it’s just Schumer/Jeffries and the 8 aren’t getting it.
