Rubio's justification for attacking Iran:

Iran would have retaliated against the US if Israel attacked Iran. Therefore the US acted preemptively.

So, why didn't the Trump admin just restrain the principal recipient of US military assistance from launching such an illegal attack in the first place?

A brand new $64,470 2026 Chevrolet Tahoe..the average American can barely afford one of these right now, but the government has just dropped 90 and counting. Shame on #Chevrolet for supplying #ChevroletIceMobiles that will be used to abduct humans and dissappear them to American concentration camps.

Whether its because Americans recognize it is illegal, or because they recognize 60% of Americans already can't make ends meet, or because they remember Trump promised "no new wars"—or all of the above—only 25% of Americans support Trump's illegal war on Iran.

Block the trolls. Block the bombs.

So, now would be a good time for our enemies to attack us? They probably didn’t know think about that.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

The FBI being on high alert for terrorist actions is important right now.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk have killed 700,000 people just through their USAID cuts -- nearly 10 million dead by the end of this decade. The comparison isn't fully 1:1, but it's damn close.

Experts at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) have rediscovered a recording and determined it’s probably the oldest whale recording still in existence. The likely vocalist? A humpback whale. 🐋 spklr.io/6007Dxy1Z

Many businesses that have capitulated to Trump have ultimately paid a heavy price-one way or another

And many of those who have resisted have been rewarded by consumers

There is a strong incentive for Netflix to do right by Susan Rice. Hopefully they will be smart and take it

I like U.S. Senate candidates who don’t cut and paste their policies from other candidates’ websites from other states.

This rundown of Jasmine Crockett’s original, Texas specific policies is exactly what doing your own homework actually looks like.

Watching @maddow.bsky.social and the description of Noem’s jet. Given the level of grift and corruption going on, these people will never leave willingly…they’ve gotten used to luxury (in a government job!) and they can’t live this way out of office

A Nashville comedian created a fake ICE deportation tip line. Neighbors, coworkers and even a kindergarten teacher called in—trying to get families deported.

@drewharwell.com sits down with @samsteindc.bsky.social to discuss how a viral stunt became a window into America’s darkest impulses.

Opinion | What Exactly Is a ‘Concentration Camp’?

"Always, always, always concentration camps are an end run around the existing legal system. These people that are getting rounded up because whoever’s in power wants to do something that they can’t do using the letter of the law..."

This is a win for veterans everywhere. The fact that this was proposed in the first place was an insult to every person who has ever put on the uniform.

We will continue to hold this administration accountable to make sure our promises to those who served are kept, period.
