tRump is literally provoking a wider war, giving ultimatums, giving Iran no exit, prolonging a regional conflagration that cd become WWIII. Nor will US be spared this time. & going into Cuba? How can Rs in Congress let it happen? EveryR in all 3 branches enabling him, & Dem leadership not up to it.
Israelis defying their govt to protest the attacks on Iran. Well done! ❤️

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.
1/ Russian bloggers are waking up to the fact that they live in an oppressive dictatorship with declining living standards. 14 years after Vladimir Putin was reelected as "a strong leader for a great country," commentators are asking: what has Putin ever done for us? ⬇️
Huh, no surprise there.
Corrupt is no longer a strong enough word to describe MAGA and Trump.
Malfeasance is now my choice word to describe how: illegal, dishonest, rotten, vile, fraudulent, corrupt, awful, and perverted they have become.
Next up: Cuba. Thanks for your service.
Not much's gonna change, folks. Noem's still around & this MachoMilionaire OKie Cowboy's no different. On the Pretti killing: "A deranged individual came in to cause max damage, with a loaded pistol with an extra mag that was completely loaded, & he was shot &killed.” Big liar, too. He blamed Dems.
ok not understanding this, but I like your posts.
oh, sorry.
The US has suspended operations at their Kuwait embassy so American citizens there are on their own. Not that Donald Trump will care, alive or dead, Americans mean nothing to him unless he can profit from them.

Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:
From the proverbial fire into the frying pan. Nothing's gonna change. Vought gets another govt destroyer on his Proj2025 Enforcer cabinet, Noem's still around, & every R is on board w/abuse of power, violating their Oaths. Nuremberg 2.0 can't come soon enough.
It’s almost like we didn’t think this through.
Incredible, isn't it? That UKR, which had to give up its nuclear weapons & army strength in 1991 for security it never got, is now the world expert on drones/21st-c warfare? & that Zelensky doesn't retaliate,as we know who would. He makes a new opportunity for UKR by offering help, sending experts.

The lack of media coverage about the bombing of the girls elementary schools is shocking.
Crimes against humanity. One day, we'll have the Nuremberg Trial 2.0, and all the Rs who violated the US Constitution, their Oaths, human rights, international law, & allowed tRump his wars and crimes, will be tried and convicted. Every damn one.
What the fuck is wrong with America. That his approval is anywhere near 40 is madness. He should be closer to 20.
Fuck sake the dems and others are not making the case that he is STEALING democracy from under their noses. In plain sight.
Something must be done.
Massie's on fire.
If it’s true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.
🧵The US Consulate in Dubai has been hit by an Iranian drone. The Trump administration was led into this war by Israel, the UAE, & Saudi Arabia, & they did NO non-military planning.
War is an unpredictable, awful business- but you enhance the odds of horror without planning & deliberation.
Turns out lawlessness is not a winning strategy. See you at Nuremberg 2.0
Don't hold your breath.
Everyone could see something wasn't right about 2024! Alot of things didn't make sense or add up but Democrats as usual rolled over like the sheep they are!!
