With the supreme leader dead, power in Iran hangs in the balance A dramatic blow to the regime—followed by dangerous uncertainty

“This is not a monarchy in which the shah is gone & you take out all of the male heirs,” notes Parsi. “This is a system—not a particularly popular system—but nevertheless one with a security establishment that is not dependent on a single person or a single family.”

Told @AJEnglish that Trump's messaging on why he started the war with Iran signalled desperation.

He is desperately trying to come up with a justification that will be convincing to his base for a war that only one out of five Americans sees as justified...

Norway’s foreign minister says deeply worried about extensive war in Middle East Norwegian Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide said on Saturday he was deeply worried that a new, extensive war was starting in the Middle East after Israel

This may be my favorite part of Zohran Mamdani's inaugural address: "I have been told that this is the occasion to reset expectations, that I should use this opportunity to encourage the people of New York to ask for little and expect even less. I will do no such thing.”

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

🚨 League of United Latin American Citizens v. Abbott Learn more.

🚨BREAKING: Hours after Texas passed its new map, my law firm has challenged it in federal court. In addition to violating the VRA, HB 4 violates the 14th Amendment because it unjustifiably considers race and partisanship as part of a voluntary, mid-cycle redistricting. @redistrictfdn.bsky.social

I miss this clever cat opening every type of door. It was so sad to remove the baby proof door contraptions and wedges after he was gone. I still have one under the water heater door that I still can’t bear to take away.

Columbia Agrees to $200 Million Fine to Settle Fight With Trump

You can never bend the knee enough to appease an authoritarian bully.

This is a devastating blow to academic freedom & freedom of speech at Columbia.

Never in the history of this nation has there been an administration so intent on the utter destruction of higher education as we know it.
