Can't tell you how many members of Congress who *at best* had nothing to say when I asked about the Minab girls school attack. There is a profanely cold detachment inside Capitol Hill, a mode completely unrecognizable to common human decency I wish I could properly convey to you.
The world not screeching to a halt when the US killed more than 100 little school girls on the very first day of this "liberating war" led us exactly to this moment
The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.
This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.
The Iran war is destroying US hegemony.
Iran is using this moment to dismantle a key pillar of US power — the petrodollar.
For the last 50 years nearly all oil has been purchased in dollars. But Iran and China are starting to kill off this pillar of the US empire.

I say this as a Christian, the only thing that made Jesus suffer was Him being holy & becoming sin- creating the first & last split w/in the Godhead.
As far as physical suffering, we’re lying to ourselves that others didn’t go through worse. I think of that teen Japanese girl, you know the one
The founders believed that if a madman became president, members of Congress would serve the country’s interest and remove him from office. That seemed a reliable system to safeguard the republic.
Boy, did they screw up.
Happy Easter, y’all!
This is exactly why I think I’m chronically single 😭
BREAKING: Delta is suspending its special service desk for members of Congress until TSA is fully funded, per @ajc.com.

Where is this from lollll
Ruling in the case of Michael Jennings, the Black pastor who was arrested while watering his neighbor’s flowers, the Alabama Supreme Court said police can demand to see ID during a stop if they don’t like a person’s verbal answers
He was smiling. Such a tax payer funded sick freak.
Never in a million years did I ever fathom when I resurrected the Epstein story in 2018 that it would lead to first arrest of a British Royal in four centuries. Not since King Charles I was arrested in 1647.

In the 1800s, a slave owner purchased over a dozen people in Georgia and set the foundation for his family’s generational wealth
Generations later, a railroad company owned by one of his descendants is using eminent domain to seize land of Black farmers
The cover-up just never ends. Rest in peace, Ruben Ray Martinez.
Alex Pretti's parents keep a box crammed with 200 letters and cards that have poured into their Denver home since their son was shot and killed by immigration agents.
"He's my first born," Susan Pretti said. "He's the one that made me a mother. There was no reason he should have died that day."
Pam Bondi has been a complete and total failure at her job. The Epstein survivors showed more courage just by being in that room than she did under oath. She refused to answer questions and chose complicity.
America deserves better.
one thing that comes across in these clips is that bondi is totally out of her depth. just an absolute lightweight. barely sentient.
I honestly can’t remember any prior AG being this overtly disrespectful in a Congressional hearing.
They really think they’re never going to be in the minority.
Maybe I memory holed it, but personal attacks on members of Congress during testimony just seems so out of bounds.
MAPPA is doing their big one rn geez louise
JJK AND hells paradise
Their commitment to animating dark shit sure is something
JUST IN: Virginia's legislature just adopted a constitutional amendment that would end Virginia's rules that ban people from voting for life.
Virginia currently is the only state that strips people of voting rights for life for any felony. Youngkin rolled back reforms.
Now going to a referendum.
Minneapolis groups call for ‘general strike’. "...several local unions—including Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1005, SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, CWA Local 7250, and St. Paul Federation of Educators Local 28—have lent their support to the strike." www.commondreams.org/news/minneap...

A lot of people expect more from Chappell Roan than they do from their own elected officials
