Israel & the USA deserve a government not run by corrupt criminals.
The Netanyahu government is planning a major reserve mobilisation of up to 450,000 soldiers as the military prepares for a possible ground operation in Lebanon. (Kan News)
Ground operation = invasion of Southern Lebanon.
Please don't think the Ides of March is about stabbing people to death. That's incredibly reductive. It's about stabbing people to death as a team, as a community.
This is the Trump administration trashing the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution in pursuit of its mass deportation agenda.
Worse, a footnote to this memo suggest they won't even rule out authorizing home invasions with no judicial warrant for people not even ordered removed!

Utilities are convincing lawmakers around the U.S. to delay bills that would allow people to buy solar panels, plug them into an outlet and begin generating electricity.
Why do I feel like there's an editor at the New York Time whose sole job is to insert "appeared to" before every statement of fact exposing Trump's mendacity.
The shameful DOGE-shaped scrapping of the “civilian protection” unit inside the US Department of Defense was also covered last night by the UK’s Channel 4 News. bsky.app/profile/chan...
My Ides of March fun fact is that the place where Caesar was stabbed is now a cat sanctuary, and I think it’s beautiful that creatures with tiny knives on their feet live there
Giving Trump an unlimited endless supply of bombs is like giving crack to an addict. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Right. I do want a breather. Just like I need sleep at night. I'm a psychiatrist, so I know damn well that *nobody* can be in outrage mode 24-7 & maintain their mental health.
You know what happens when people burn out? They break down & stop fighting. Then the authoritarian regime wins.
Representative Tlaib’s endorsement means so much to me personally. She’s set a true example for what it means to be deeply rooted in transformative progressive values that never compromise.
I hope to join her in 2027 as the only other currently elected Palestinian in Congress!
This is what they said in 1956 when we overthrew the legitimately elected government of Iran and installed the shah which led to the ayatollahs which….never mind.
This is underreported story. But it’s important.
Acts of domestic terrorism are predictably spiking in the aftermath of our attack on Iran - and Trump and Patel gutted the FBI counterterrorism team, leaving the country intentionally exposed.
It's really strange, because when I go to Europe, the first thing people ask me is, "What the fuck is wrong with you guys?"
Some folks ask me if I think I might regret becoming more “political” on social media.
I would only regret not being nearly political enough.
why is the Transportation Secretary talking about ICE policies and Iran on Fox News?
(this is a rhetorical question -- the answer is that nobody in the Trump administration has actual job duties)

depressingly accurate analysis of the situation
It was the stupidest of times, it was the most unserious of times, it was the age of greed, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of false belief, it was the epoch of credulity, ..."
I regret to inform America that this was just posted by the HHS Secretary.
No wars of aggression.
No terrorizing our communities or yours.
No tyrants, no conquests, no kings.
Please join us on March 28 for the world-historic day of protest that this moment demands: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings
Americans in both parties long viewed solar energy more favorably than any other energy source. Solar favorability among Republicans dropped a lot in recent years, due part to opinion-shaping by right-wing media. Bundling solar with data centers, which are pretty unpopular, probably doesn't help.
From his niece, Mary Trump:
He went to NYMA, which is where NYC Mafia families and other wealthy people from NYC and Long Island sent their unruly morons. It's more Hunt's Point than West Point.
