I wonder if a hard-line successor will assume power and further destabilize the region just like every other time this has happened

Tbh I am disconcerted by this meeting so far. The US’s violation of the charter is red letter, blazing, clear as day. Many of the US’s allies are mentioning it in passing. I suspect they wont like what follows from signaling they are less committed to the UN charter than they are to countering Iran

Colombia’s speaking now. Latin American countries were strong defenders of the UN charter and international law in January, after US actions in Venezuela. Colombia is hitting those points again now. They condemn any military action that’s contrary to the charter, no matter where it comes from

indiscriminately bombing Iran is not a distraction of the Epstein files, it is a validation of their significance as more than a sex pest hunt. this is what elite impunity for morons looks like. a school turned to rubble on a whim.

The Trump administration has eliminated hundreds of thousands of federal workers, making it harder for Americans to access critical public services. This is the opposite of efficiency - and it's why we're fighting with federal workers to stand up for our services. #unionstrong #supportfederalworkers

Would you look at that... our "progressive," "socialist" mayor is planning to implement austerity: 5-10% cuts to most departments.

Some will be spared. Who wants to bet that SPD's budget will continue to grow?

The Washington Post's description of the bodycam video of his arrest last year, and the translation of Mr. Shah Alam's comments, is gutting. Remember, he was entirely blind in one eye and could only see three feet in the other, and he spoke virtually no English.

He spent a year in jail for this.

We've got to stop Trump's farm worker wage cuts. Their H-2A rule change drastically cuts wages for H-2A farm workers and local workers alike. We filed suit in federal court to block it, but lawsuits take a long time and are very expensive. Please help. act.seiu.org/a/trumpswage... #WeFeedYou

Okay Mr. Mayor, was it just a snowball fight or was it a criminal attack? Because your cops are proceeding as if it’s the latter!

Almost every statement DHS has made in the past few months about any incidents where someone has died or been subject to unaccountable federal violence has been proven false.

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

it took an expensive, coordinated effort & a lot of people saying “this doesn’t matter” to get from a bathroom ban costing one state $400 million & a gubernatorial race to “trans people must turn in their documents which become invalid in a few hours or face fines & potential jail time” in 10 years.

To any Democrat who ever said about any issue, "Maybe if we agree with Republicans just this far, they'll stop there," remember that you were wrong, it was obvious at the time, and you really should never believe that again about any issue, ever.

This is a Nazi move. Stripping people of rights, invalidating their IDs, setting them up for criminalization and imprisonment.

If you don't support trans rights, you support fascism.
