Sickening

"Aside from the internment camps used to incarcerate Japanese Americans in the 1940s, such facilities have no precedent in American history..."

US Conference of Catholic Bishops statement on Trump's new mass prison camps.

This is the level of stupidity we’re dealing with.

Hegseth is incompetent. They’re all incompetent.

And so many lives hang in the balance of that cavalier ignorance.

Israel has been continuously bombing Lebanon almost every day for over a year. Anyone who tells you “Hezbollah broke the ceasefire” is either lying to you, or is just so incredibly biased that their brain genuinely doesn’t register Israeli bombings of Lebanon as ceasefire violations.

Leaving a hilltop view of Mt Baker here as a cleanse and chance to breathe through this utterly bananas and depressing news cycle.

This is a public service announcement for anyone living in the USA, midterms are coming and you have a moral obligation for yourself, everyone around you, and even those across the world, to vote out fascism. Don't make excuses. Don't give fascists the benefit of the doubt. Use. Your. Vote.

So he’s offered to pay the U.S. 1 trillion dollars to install him as leader.
How do the Iranian families who will have paid for their so-called liberation with their blood and with their loved one’s lives in the streets or in Evin prison feel about this?
Governance is just transactional to them.

Very interesting. I might argue they normalized the mortal body and its decay.

So are Qatar and the UAE. Everyone has skin in that quid pro quo game.
We give you a jet, you bomb Iran. We give Kushner 2B, you bomb Iran. It’s all so transparent, except Trump is a fool bc this is not going to be the cake walk he thinks it is. This isn’t Venezuela. Not even close.

How very lovely.

🚨 Tim Snyder asks the important question whether the US military is being used used as a huge mercenary force for those Gulf States that want regime change in Iran and have clear financial ties to Trump and his family, especially Kushner who received large “gifts” from them.

Push from Saudis, Israel helped move Trump to attack Iran President Trump launched a wide-ranging attack on Iran after weeks-long lobbying by an unusual pair of U.S. allies in the Middle East: Israel and Saudi Arabia.

"The attack came despite US intelligence assessments that Iran was unlikely to pose an immediate threat to the US mainland within the next decade."

So why do it?

"A weeks-long lobbying effort by Israel and Saudi Arabia..."

Ah. Not just weak, but cheap, too.

Anyone else angry and exhausted at the fact that billionaire men are looking to make off like bandits over the bodies of the dead?

Anyone else tired of the bombing and killing and maiming of innocent civilians to keep themselves in power and out of prison?

So much death and destruction for 2 men.

Is Convicted Felon Donald Trump’s super-duper secure SCIF with soft banquet-hall curtains, open air top, unsecured electronic devices, and roving guests located next to the bathroom where the classified documents are stored?

The spinning prize wheel of fate

Step closer and watch the great Wheel turn,
a burnished disc like Achilles’ Shield,
etched with destinies you never chose.
Hear it hum with the weight of unseen hands,
those who tilt the world from gilded towers.

These men see two choices: rape little girls or bomb little girls.
Whichever gets them and their cronies the wealthiest, the fastest.
This is not conventional state-on-state warfare. These are billionaire technocrats trying to amass more wealth and preserve their power, whatever way
can.

What are you even talking about? You think this attack on Iran is a PTSD response?

Starmer talking about the abhorrent Iranian government who has murdered thousands of protestors while
the estimate for deaths related to Trump’s US Aid cuts is hundreds of thousands in a single year.
Israel has murdered at very least 72k Palestinians.
They are all the same brand of abhorrent.
