It’s insane this is legal. People around Trump are profiting off war and death. I’m introducing legislation ASAP to ban this.

One of my senators (D) went on TV and framed the problem with Trump's decision to launch an unprovoked assault on another country as entirely about process. She agrees with the carnage, she just wishes she would have been consulted about it first. Sorry to be a bit bummed out by that, I guess.

Susie Wiles is wearing an Apple Watch during a highly classified meeting on Iran.

Unreal.

The president didn't bother to make the case for war in a marathon State of the Union address and then he fucked off to his sweaty gilded country club so he could literally phone in an unconstitutional war.

Every single Democrat needs to be screaming about this at full volume.

meanwhile, war rages on at home.

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

Post See new posts Conversation Laura Rozen @lrozen · 2h From US admin official background briefing recording listening to, seriously question if US negotiators understood what Iranians were proposing. One official keeps saying acronym for “IAEA” wrong. They seem astonished Iran would not agree to the US supplying them nuclear fuel Laura Rozen @lrozen · 2h They took as suspicious proposals that Iran saw as concessionary. Laura Rozen @lrozen · 2h Explains why Oman FM tried to come to DC to explain what US negotiators may not have fully understood Laura Rozen @lrozen Am not saying what Iran proposed would have been enough, I dont know, but it seems US negotiators did not have the expert guidance to understand it correctly

On top of all the reporting that this war of aggression was planned well in advance, it seems that the reporting also indicates that the US political leadership are quite literally too stupid to understand basic diplomacy. I mean literally not smart enough.

sure the pedophile felon president just illegally bombed a country that may have nukes while federal forces under his command murder and harass people in america and immigrants are tortured and he moves forward with plans to build concentration camps and sorry idk where i was going fuck all of this

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

WOW. 19 people, all who were imprisoned and mistreated in a foreign prison at the direct command of the United States, are brave enough to say “We are innocent, and we will endure more time imprisoned to prove that.”

I can only admire the enormous courage such a move takes.

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

US-Israeli strike on girls' school kills at least 85 students, Iran's judiciary says At least 85 students have been killed in US-Israeli strikes that hit an Iranian girls' school in Hormozgan province, Iran's judiciary said on Saturday. Washington has not commented on the reported str...

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians.

We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

we need a system of AI ethics and governance that aligns with this very large and dependable revenue stream from the government

Rep. Ansari Statement on United States Attack on Iran.

The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.

A United States senator from the president's own party, one who serves on the Select Committee on Intelligence and the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, has no idea what's going on as America goes to war with Iran.

yeah but he wrote it in 1979 bsky.app/profile/comp...

Joe Dante and Hideo Kojima are close seconds but no director was more right about the future of war than Barry Levinson with the 1992 box office flop Toys.

And you know, you can extend from this to a real important corallary to "Everyone is 12 Now" theory is "There has been a generation-long project to keep people 12."

Conservative news and opinon outlets, regressive mass audience entertainment products, etc. all propagandize a chilidish worldview.

Meghan McCain tweet (@MeghanMcCain) "Remember when every maga personality screamed at the top of their lungs that anyone with the last name McCain was a blood thirsty neocon warmonger who would bomb Iran and had no place in the Republican Party? Yea I didn’t forget that either."

me: (going to bed after learning our government is again starting a starkly unjustifiable war of aggression that could have horrific consequences for the region and world) (I suddenly jolt awake) bah!!! how is John McCain's dumbest child handling this??

see this is actually a quite good statement

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

A lot going on right now but don't miss that Trump got one of the worst inflation reports of his 2nd term yesterday. The PPI came in hot, way over expectations. 1/

The most evil people on the planet trying to buy yet another election.

I was literally pulling up the FBI indictments of the Iranian hackers two days ago for a forthcoming article ab this 🫠

Trump dismantled the entire infrastructure that disrupted this op! Kate and Stamos and I were sued by America First Legal — case is entering its 3rd year. These fucking hacks.

Schumer, also, does not oppose the Trump administration's war with Iran. He just wants them "to be straight with Congress and the American people about the objectives."

There is no effective opposition to this war.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.

Absolutely horrifying. More details here: www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/...
