Bombing of Iran’s oil infrastructure to have major environmental fallout, experts warn
He is a major GOP apologist. Expel Reagan’s ghost!
Personally, I think this is more about trying to save his job in his newly-drawn district than some sort of moral awakening.
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
Hours before the filing deadline, West Virginia lawmakers passed SB 1083, making it a criminal offense for transgender people to use locker rooms matching their gender identity, and SB 590, banning public drag performances with fines up to $25,000 and jail time up to five years for repeat violations
I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.

Reagan hid his fascist behavior behind a veneer of democratic leadership. He gave a false impression that one could be “Conservative” and good for Democracy at the same time, post WWII. The battle has always been: Individual Stakeholders (labor, voting) vs. Self-serving Decision makers (Biz, Pol).

Yes.
Again, the unifying 🧵 about Trump’s foreign policy is not realism or neo-royalism. It’s the extension of sexual assault/predation/partner abuse to IR. If he thinks you’re his macho pal, he’ll respect you/your sovereignty. If not, he’ll try to violate you & humiliate you. Epstein-ism, if you like.
The article also points to the corruption of the selection process for new NEH grants.
Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.
Markwayne Mullin was caught lying on the record about the former CDC Director, Dr. Susan Monarez, by his Republican colleagues in the Senate chamber in September. He’s not honest or competent, and anyone who respects him is a fool.

They've now killed four people -- three U.S. citizens and a Mexican national. They've shot several more.
They've lied about all of them. They haven't shaded the truth. They haven't "misled" us. They've brazenly, knowingly lied while in possession of the evidence disproving their lies.
I love you my friend, I am so sorry.
You do know the government isn’t a kingdom, this blood is on our hands, and it’s your treasure the Republicans are squandering, right? All you gotta do is say “SOS! Stop Oligarch Squander.” Get them to raise their hand and just say “NO.”
When it comes to Iran, “all the old patriotic and moral justifications for our forever wars no longer applied,” Jay Caspian Kang writes. “We just do it because we want to ‘win,’ even if we can’t really tell you what we’re winning.” newyorkermag.visitlink.me/9-h3oS
To the surprise of some officials in Kyiv, no one from the U.S. bothered to ask Ukraine to share its expertise in how to defend against drones before starting the offensive in Iran, Simon Shuster and Nancy A. Youssef report.
I’ve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administration’s Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them.
I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.
