Trump just confirmed there are sleeper cells in the US. But here’s the obvious question, if they know where they are, what are they waiting for? Go get them.

Mind you, this is the same man who said tankers should move through the Strait of Hormuz, then several got attacked.

We’re not in good hands

Good morning and happy Saturday to everyone. If he has totally defeated, obliterated and destroyed Iran, why is he now sending thousands of Marines to Iran? And why are the MAGA morons who screamed for Hillary to be locked up because of 4 dead in Benghazi now so quiet about 13 dead in Iran?

America was once considered the “good guys”. We no longer have a moral compass with these Trumpers

This is crucially important point.

1) "No quarter" is indeed specifically war-crime term

2) Under Geneva Conventions, after sinking an enemy ship, the attackers must "take all positive measures" to find and rescue any survivors. Text in next post

No evidence US sub did so after attack, AFAIK

The House already passed it. Thune’s scheduling a Senate vote. This bill was written by election deniers, pushed by Stop the Steal operatives, and sold to the public through a fake grassroots campaign run by people who tried to overturn the last election. That’s not democracy it’s a con.

Don’t take our word for it. Even John Thune, the Republican Senate Majority Leader, admitted the pressure is coming from a “paid influencer ecosystem” online, not real senators, not real constituents. We have actually been checking accounts posting about the SAVE America Act most are bots.

There’s never enough money for schools or healthcare or veterans.

But there’s always enough money to bomb people on the other side of the world.

We can support the democracy movement in Iran without bombing innocent schoolchildren and sending our American troops off to die.

The bottom line is Trump sacrificed 8 American lives (& counting) and more than 1,000 Iranian lives (& counting) for nothing. He hurt the US & global economies, destabilized the Middle East, & will pull out with the same Iranian regime in power. There's no silver lining.

A senseless, criminal waste

Opinion | Daryl Hannah: How Can ‘Love Story’ Get Away With This?

This rings so true. Misogyny lives in this false “Love Story” Don’t take the bait.

“Isn’t it textbook misogyny to tear down one woman in order to build up another?”

Women outvote men, but 69M married women have names that don't match their birth certificates. This bill turns paperwork into a weapon against their voice. Don't let them be silenced at the polls.

🧵Rubio asked the press to disseminate widely a phone number for Americans stuck in the Middle East to call. The media outlets did. Now @jonathankarl.bsky.social reports that calling the number just tells you, via recorded message, there is NO help.

Push from Saudis, Israel helped move Trump to attack Iran President Trump launched a wide-ranging attack on Iran after weeks-long lobbying by an unusual pair of U.S. allies in the Middle East: Israel and Saudi Arabia.

SUPER SHOCKED: Israel and the Saudis lobbied Trump to start the war. As @maddow.bsky.social asked: who benefits? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Anyone else freaked out that we have such incompetents in place at such a tense moment while also having the President talk about his drapes?

Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president be waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."
