The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.

15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.

Let's see how that works out if Iran wants to keep the strait closed regardless.

I’m a little confused because the economists on my timeline are like β€œoh yeah we’re facing a generational energy crisis because Trump is a madman who started a war he can’t control” while the politicians are like β€œit’s important to make clear we support the troops until it all blows over next week”

Worse than the worst War on Terror drone strikes. By innocents killed, worse than multiple of the worst drone strike errors combined.

It’s of a piece with Hegseth’s unhinged pressers. In addition to his obvious self-gratification, he exults in dealing death with impunity to both innocents and combatants. The framework’s obvious corollary is that mass casualty terrorism against soft targets is also justifiable in pursuit of policy.

This feels like a ”quiet part loud” thing. Dead troops are a problem for an aggressive government. Dead civilians can be used to justify the aggression, so they’re not a concern, maybe even helpful. It’s just that it’s important to PRETEND to be protective of your own civilians.

ICE detains reporter Estefany RodrΓ­guez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany RodrΓ­guez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

To a significant degree, I think, even people who sharply oppose Israel in American politics understate how deeply violent and cruel they have become.
