Secretary Rubio's remarks indicate that Israel put U.S. forces in harm's way by insisting on attacking Iran. And the administration was complicit—joining their war instead of talking them down.

This is unacceptable of the President, and unacceptable of a country that calls itself our ally.

So Israel just gets to force us into war? Uh, maybe we should stop arming them then. JFC!

Thanks! I had seen the SELC work before but not the MS permitting document.

Do you have any estimates for the co-pollutants alongside the GHG emissions? I've seen the SELC estimates for NOx but if your analysis had any insight into that aspect of this I think it would be incredibly valuable as well. (This is already great, just have specific public health concerns too!)

Most of the district doesn’t even have snow rn but it’s been coming down for hours in Takoma. #dcwx

Netanyahu so clearly wanted Trump to win and rejected any attempts at a ceasefire because (1) he wants genocide and (2) he wanted the war going on through the 2024 election.

Democrats need to realize that he wants them to fail. Biden refused to believe it and enabled him instead.

When parody is our reality

This is the correct response. Congress needs to be called back into session NOW

Henry Cuellar U.S. Representative ("D") TX-28 Primary Date: March 3rd WARNING: PRO-ICE • Voted to let ICE strip-search children. • Voted for DHS funding. • Voted to thank ICE during LA Occupation.

50501 Ricardo Villarreal Running for TX-28 (D) Veteran & Physician Primary Date: March 3rd Not Pro-ICE • Protested Dilley detention center. • Opposed DHS funding vote. • Running against pro-ICE Trump collaborator.

To abolish ICE, we must abolish pro-ICE “Dem” collaborators.

Pro-ICE incumbent Henry Cuellar is running in the TX-28 Democratic primary against Physician & Veteran Ricardo Villarreal on March 3rd, 2026.

Don’t forget to vote!

I work in a policy space where we’ve been actively begging dems not to engage and while we definitely have some policy folks against our positions we’ve found plenty of support for that position among ngos and elected officials at the federal level. YMMV

🟢 Israel agreed to a “ceasefire” in Gaza on October 10. Since then, Israeli forces have: ➤ Launched 852 airstrikes and artillery attacks ➤ Opened fire on Palestinians 665 times ➤ Committed 1,856 armed violations on the ground 🔴 Israel Killed: ➤ 198 Children ➤ 85 Women ➤ 23 Elderly Citizens 648 Palestinians total 🔴 Israel Wounded: ➤ 507 Children ➤ 337 Women ➤ 89 Elderly Citizens 1666 Palestinians total The Palestinian resistance in Gaza shared on Day 137 (February 25) of the “ceasefire” a report detailing “sustained and systematic” Israeli violations of the truce.

➤ It recorded that children, women, and the elderly make up 47.2% of those killed during the “ceasefire.” ➤ It documents 1,856 Israeli field violations, averaging 13.5 violations per day, including live fire, drone strikes, artillery shelling, demolitions, and naval gunfire. ➤ The most severe violations, according to the report, concern aid. The ceasefire requires 600 trucks per day, including 50 fuel trucks. The document states that only 43.2% (260 of 600 agreed trucks) have entered overall, and just 15.1% of required fuel. ➤ It accuses Israel of providing “misleading figures” to mediators and refusing independent monitoring, calling the fuel restrictions a deliberate obstruction of recovery and basic services. ➤ Only 1,753 of 4,200 scheduled travelers were allowed to pass through Rafah in both directions — a compliance rate of just 41.7%. The report concludes that the violations form a “continuous and systematic pattern” that has stripped the ceasefire of practical substance.

Right and I agree with you on the policy front but there are areas that they need to work with trump that are not just legislation. It needs to be rare and selective af but a blanket refusal to do anything at all with trump is not ideal imo.

Saying "it's a distraction" is saying you care nothing for the little girls bombed out of existence for being born where they were.

Epstein, ICE, Iran - all of it - are Crimes against Humanity by the MAGA Murder Regime.

Praying for the people of Iran and an end to this hell.

It even got massive airplay on MTV with its video. That song is a BEAST.

The company’s “AI” famously can’t do anything right even 50% of the time, and they are so transparently unethical that even the Facebook folks are like “we probably shouldn’t use tech that way,” so sure, by all means, put them in charge of the nuclear codes or whatever.

I'm not going to lie, I take a comfort in that while they are destroying science and other areas of work that are beneficial, they also seem hell bent on destroying the military and I am OK with that.

lol why would anyone have trusted him BEFORE this?

the caveat here is that if Crockett wins then Harris probably benefits but I don't understand what Crockett gets out of this endorsement at all.

I do not believe this endorsement will be a positive move for either person involved and I do not think it is a smart decision for either person here! Harris is not going to push you over the line in Texas. And if Crockett loses, then how does that make a Harris endorsement look?

The chart is divided into six segments, listed here in descending order of their financial contribution: Federal Govt: The largest segment, shown in dark blue, accounts for 51% of the total, valued at $39.5 B. Higher Ed. – Institutional: A light coral segment accounting for 23%, valued at $18.2 B. Non-profit at Research Institutes: A dark red segment accounting for 8%, valued at $6.1 B. Higher Ed. – Direct Philanthropy: A bright red segment accounting for 7%, valued at $5.8 B. Business: A grey segment accounting for 7%, valued at $5.2 B. Non-Federal Govt: The smallest segment, shown in light blue, accounting for 4%, valued at $3.2 B.

Here's a chart showing who funds basic research in the US. It's easy to tell that private funding cannot make up for significant cuts to government funding.

You want to know the most amazing group of fighters I’ve ever known in my life? Environmental justice leaders. If you are not making EJ a pillar of your platform as a Democrat how could I ever consider you a fighter or strong?

Those are unhinged messages worthy of an immediate block. Your posts have been great and really informative for this former Texan.

Go deeper. 1 big thing: Trump taunts Dems President Trump's State of the Union address last night. Photo: Kenny Holston/The New York Times President Trump used last night's State of the Union address to portray himself as America's savior and protector, as the country marks its 250th birthday, Axios CEO Jim VandeHei says in a "Behind the Curtain" video. 🇺🇸 VandeHei says Trump "wanted to prove that he is the strong and patriotic one, and that Democrats, by contrast, are weak and weird. You saw this in the choreography from the moment he walked onto the stage until he left." The president "knows that while he's unpopular, Democrats are equally unpopular. Democrats haven't done a good job of proving themselves to be an acceptable alternative to Trump." "The most poignant moment was where he isolated on this idea of: Will you stand for U.S. citizens, or will you stand for illegal immigrants?" VandeHei added. ⏱️ "He just taunted and taunted the Democrats. He let it hang in the air for what felt like minutes — because he understood that the imagery of Democrats sitting down when he's saying 'stand up if you stand for U.S. citizens' is brilliant politics.""

Axios CEO Jim VandeHei leaves no doubt who he is rooting for. This is not "news" - this is a press release. www.axios.com/newsletters/...

PS: Jim (along with all the right-wing leaning corporate media elites) just may look beyond stupid when the numbers come in this November.

The claim that “we will always protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid” from a man who gutted Social Security offices, gave DOGE access to our information and kicked 15 million people off Medicaid is perhaps the most disgusting lie ever uttered on national television

#TrumpsStateOfDelusion

democrats should internalize that this is what their colleagues think of them and act accordingly

Honestly why is this not still a story? We had a Kent State moment and we all grieved but then collectively we all moved onto everything else. And I know that people haven't forgotten but also, like, FUCK we should have MORE of a collective reaction.

Rep. Summer Lee with the Working People's SOTU response: "Look at Mayor Mamdani, who took on Andrew Cuomo and his corporate backers and won ... he proved that when you show up, when you speak clearly about how to meet people's basic needs, the people respond."

One cool thing about unequivocally hating AI is that you will be proven right over and over again every single day

My abuelo went to NYC from Cuba during WWII and he worked as a snow shoveler for years before saving enough money to go back to Cuba so he could really start his life. Till his very last day - and I am not kidding - he carried his NYC snow shoveler ID in his wallet with pride.

Respect is long due.
