FYI: he was never going to let negotiations play out. This attack was decided on well in advance.

Also who the hell is naming these ops? Epic Fury? 🤦‍♂️

And dangerous.

Stand up, speak out. No holds barred.

The subtleties are always the eye into the motive.

🇫🇷 France demands urgent convening of UN Security Council over situation in Iran — Macron

❗️ Macron says current escalation is dangerous for everyone and "must stop."

👀 Macron says the start of war between US, Israel and Iran "would have severe consequences for peace and international security."

Trump just coordinated with Israel to launch a massive attack on Iran with no congressional approval and no public support. Trump like Putin does whatever he wants. Once Democrats win Congress, on day one they need to start efforts to remove Trump from power using every (legal) means available.

You know, Ukraine has never blown up a school full of little girls. Sometimes an accident is not an accident, especially with countries like the US, Russia and Israel that repeatedly commit the same crimes against children.

Instagram, TikTok and Facebook are actively shutting down anti-Israel views or criticism of the illegal war with Iran; X (Twitter) is manipulating the narrative by boosting MAGA and Israeli accounts while limiting the view of others. It’s a full censorship regime on US media.

“The basic question here is whether a bunch of rich pedophiles and Epstein accomplices are going to face any consequences for their crimes,” [Senator Ron] Wyden said.

Some scary shit going down at the Pentagon with Hegseth

Trump reveals he doesn’t know the difference between the Civil War and Reconstruction

A sobering read of how both sides struggle to hold the rich and powerful accountable.

This isn’t simply about getting justice for the survivors anymore.

I would argue it’s also about salvaging our broken republic.

It’s about returning our government back to the people.

Donald J. Trump Q+ @realDonald rump THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WILL NEVER ALLOW A RADICAL LEFT, WOKE COMPANY TO DICTATE HOW OUR GREAT MILITARY FIGHTS AND WINS WARS! That decision belongs to YOUR COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF, and the tremendous leaders I appoint to run our Military. The Leftwing nut jobs at Anthropic have made a DISASTROUS MISTAKE trying to STRONG-ARM the Department of War, and force them to obey their Terms of Service instead of our Constitution. Their selfishness is putting AMERICAN LIVES at risk, our Troops in danger, and our National Security in JEOPARDY. Therefore, I am directing EVERY Federal Agency in the United States Government to IMMEDIATELY CEASE all use of Anthropic's technology. We don't need it, we don't want it, and will not do business with them again! There will be a Six Month phase out period for Agencies like the Department of War who are using Anthropic's products, at various levels. Anthropic better get their act together, and be helpful during this phase out period, or I will use the Full Power of the Presidency to make them comply, with major civil and criminal consequences to follow. WE will decide the fate of our Country - NOT some out-of-control, Radical Left Al company run by people who have no idea what the real World is all about. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Trump goes apeshit at Anthropic for not letting him do what he wants.

Trump orders all federal agencies to phase out use of Anthropic technology President Donald Trump says he's ordering all federal agencies to phase out use of Anthropic technology after the company’s unusually public dispute with the Pentagon over artificial intelligence safe...

This is because the Pentagon and Trump don’t like Anthropic’s language preventing their tech from being used to surveil Americans or for autonomous weapons. Which means the Pentagon wants to use their tech to surveil Americans and build autonomous weapons apnews.com/article/anth...

It's not hyperbole to suggest that today we have a federal government that doesn't so much represent or resemble a federal administration as it does a family crime syndicate.

Donald, you're not denying it.

Pro-democracy Americans need to tell their Trump-loving family and friends that the Trump regime is calling on Americans to stop eating beef and switch to liver instead.

The Dilley family detention center is run by CoreCivic, a major Trump donor who has raked in millions from federal contracts already.

Never forget who is profiting from this cruelty.

Trump lies: "I don't know anything about the Epstein files. I've been fully exonerated."

The U.S. intensified military preparations for a possible war with Iran as the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford approached the Middle East.

Senator calls for DEA to provide info on "incredibly disturbing" Epstein drug investigation Federal drug enforcement investigators targeted Jeffrey Epstein and 14 others in a yearslong probe first reported by CBS News.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

@raskin.house.gov “The cardinal, original sin of Trump was to decide that he was going to use the presidency as a profit-making enterprise in his first term, and I would say that Congress should have impeached him for receiving millions and millions of dollars from foreign governments.”

With the US on the brink of war with Iran, Fox's biggest stars are more focused on the left being mean to the US men’s hockey team. Fox aired 19 minutes of coverage on the Iran war the last two nights -- and 48 minutes on their newest culture war.

I see you.
