Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Iran:

“Remember that one can be against a hateful regime, as is the case with the Iranian regime, as is the whole of Spanish society, and at the same time be against an unjustified, dangerous military intervention outside of international law.”

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.

International Relations Is Not a Morality Play: What to Expect From the War With Iran The Trump administration has no plan and no path to a good outcome.

The trend of increasing presidential power at the expense of Congress did not start with Trump, but this attack on Iran brings it to new heights, with the legislature not even consulted on a consequential use of one of its core responsibilities. And the GOP majorities are apparently fine with that.

Why didn't Graham Platner know better than to appear with an antisemitic podcaster in the middle of a Senate campaign? Because he's never suffered consequences from anything. Outside the military (where he fucked up and got barred from the Marines), Platner's had no real job besides bartending. 1/

NEWS: In 2019, the Trump DOJ took over New Mexico’s investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch — telling the state to stand down and turn over its findings. According to officials and newly unsealed records, the probe soon fizzled after the federal takeover. Link to NYT reporting in reply.

Trump’s Effort to Steal the Midterms Is Getting Serious MAGA groups have drafted an executive order that would allow the president to take over the country’s elections.

As the Iran crisis unfolds, we can’t lose sight of the grave threat at home: the U.S. president has every intention to interfere with upcoming elections.

Kaine on Fox: "The president can act to defend US against imminent attack without congressional approval. But if you're going to initiate war, you need Congress. The president not only did not come to Congress, he acted without even notification to the vast majority of us. This is an illegal war."

Community members, public officials push back against ICE expansion into metro Detroit - WDET 101.9 FM The Southfield office and planned detention center in Romulus come as the Trump administration massively increases the budget for ICE.

“Cut the utilities, condemn the building, demo it, take it under eminent domain, whatever you can do. Make it impossible for them to use our neighborhood for a concentration camp,” he said.

“This will not be solved by a harshly worded letter or resolution. We need action.”
