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.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

It’s his idea of governing. He needs to be on TV everyday, or, on golf weekends, sending out deranged inflammatory tweets. He is being β€œdominant,β€œ flooding the zone and filling our heads with his shit. He doesn’t want us to forget him for so much as a day.

The last photo of third-grader Mikaeil Mirdoraghi, waving to his mom before he left for school. He was killed shortly after in the U.S./Israeli strike on a primary school in Minab.

So dark and unhinged. The Trump regime is dropping thousands of bombs for clicks.

If you’re not horrified by this you have lost the thread.

This is one of the most jaw dropping moments of Trump’s presidency. Up there with brainstorming about injecting bleach and shining light up orifices to cure COVID.

Trump gets mad when asked Russia and Iran working together to kill US troops because he wants to talk about college sports instead

A nice addendum to Sheldon Whitehouse’s long speech on the Russia-Epstein-Trump nexus.

Justice Department publishes documents with sexual assault allegations against Trump The department shared FBI documents outlining allegations involving Trump.

"The woman’s central allegation, according to FBI summaries of her interviews with investigators, known as FBI 302s, is that Trump hit her after she bit his penis when he attempted to force her to perform oral sex."

Look, it's just purely a coincidence that Donald Trump started a war just days before the release of FBI 302s of interviews of a victims claiming he raped her when she was 13 years old.
