BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.

This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

If Obama were prosecuting this war against Iran, Democrats and the media would be cheering and half the right would be denouncing it.

That’s the problem: in America today, everything gets filtered through partisan tribalism.

I think if Obama were prosecuting this war against Iran his approvals would be at 5%

North Tehran’s Aqdasiyeh oil depot is ablaze tonight after it was targeted by multiple US-Israeli airstrikes. Apocalyptic scenes filmed by Iranians driving on the nearby highway. Local reporters saying firefighters can’t put it out. This depot is critical energy infrastructure for Iran.

I don’t want to be alarming but I think this energy shock will be worse than the Russian invasion of Ukraine and that gave us $150/barrel

Targeting #UN peacekeepers is unacceptable. We clearly condemn the strike on a @UNIFIL_ base in southern #Lebanon that has left several Ghanaian peacekeepers wounded. We urge all actors to ensure the safety & security of UN peacekeepers at all times.

This weird game where you condemn the act but not the perpetrator because your entire self conceptualization as a state in relation to the Middle East is to back that perpetrator is very off putting. Why not just stay silent? That frankly would be more honest.

Iran's FM condemns US attack on Qeshm's freshwater desalination plant, warns of grave consequences US President Donald Trump announced that Iran promised not to attack its neighbours anymore

Multiple news outlets are reporting a US attack on an Iranian #desalination plant.
If verified, this violates international law protecting #water systems during wars, and it sets a dangerous precedent, given intense dependence of Gulf countries on desalination.

NEW: The Trump-Vance-Rubio administration has once again bypassed Congress to push through a $151.8 million bomb sale to Israel —>

Worth watching the whole clip, but purely in propaganda terms it seems to me, admittedly just an amateur observer when it comes to war fighting, that it may be useful to send the message to the 91+ million Iranian civilians that we are not trying to kill them.

TBH this is actually a pretty big watershed moment and whether he bends or doesn't bend to this ludicrous pressure will actually tell us a lot about where things are headed in the party— will the centrist frontrunner say something that isn't true just because a few groups ask him to?

DOJ releases Epstein files with accusations against Trump Over the course of four interviews in 2019, a woman told the FBI that Epstein and Trump sexually abused her in the 1980s.

“A DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credible—and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.”

clinton's plan to beat trump was to elevate him above the rest of the republican field and then coast to an easy victory. i don't think she was right about that

Brian McGinnis' wife has
NOT been allowed to see him in the hospital.
He is currently awaiting surgery for severe injuries.
Legal counsel has also been denied access.
A Marine veteran.
A firefighter.
A father of four.
And his family still cannot see him.

so apparently Brian McGinnis has been denied access to both his family and legal representation since a sitting senator broke his arm

An elementary school in the Iranian capital Tehran’s Niloufar Square has been struck in US-Israeli attacks, according to Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei.

Baghaei on Friday shared a video on X, purportedly showing Shahid Hamedani School with students before and after the attack, without elaborating on the circumstances or the number of casualties.

The US and Israel have apparently attacked another elementary school in Iran, this one in Tehran.
