The United States had a deal that could have prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.

Donald Trump ripped that deal up and got nothing in return.

This makes no sense and it is disgraceful and incomprehensible that this is the president of the United States, with lethal force at his disposal, communicating in wartime.

It’s hackneyed now but it should never be: don’t normalize this.

It’s about time someone said it out loud on a national news show.

Major Gen. Paul Eaton (ret.) β€” on Trump’s interest in putting boots on the ground:

β€œWe have a situation where someone called a malignant narcissist is unfortunately drifting into a state of dementia that is difficult to manage.”

Analysis Suggests School Was Hit Amid U.S. Strikes on Iranian Naval Base

Killing children is always wrong. Furthermore, when someone condemns Israel for genocide in Gaza or the United States for killing more than 150 girls at school in Iran, they are not obligated to list and condemn every time a nation or group who has killed a child.

The president of the United States meeting the coffins of soldiers he's had killed to amuse himself while wearing a white baseball cap and, I don't know, counting his fingers...? Meanwhile, the wraith he's married to is demonstrating her customary compassion for anyone who's not her.

If Timothee Chalamet wants to make being a reverse-snob part of his deal, whatever. Be a child, you know?

But at a time when arts funding and support are so imperiled, it would be nice not to lead with your contempt for wide swaths of the arts during your campaign to have your own art recognized.

This woman, US citizen living in Skokie, was detained at Ohare yesterday, taken to Broadview, then transferred to a detention facility in Wisconsin, now released. We know all this not because of DHS, who repeatedly denied that they even had her, but because her phone was pinging in those locations.

I think about this all the time. And for faculty in good jobs it still has some of that β€” I do enjoy knowledge making. But those are so so few and everywhere else the academe is indentured labor to a loan shark.

This is what happens when folks are allowed to pretend they vote for hate because of "economic anxiety" and the price of eggs.

Elect a demon and expect hell to be unleashed.

Asked earlier today whether Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home, Trump said:

β€œI guess.”

β€œLike I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”

He can’t even pretend to give a single fuck about human life. Truly a conscienceless sociopath.

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.
