Kurdish official in Iraq says regime change in Iran ‘not on cards’ for now Bafel Talabani warns tensions could deepen after US‑Israel strikes, citing strong Iranian institutions and lack of internal uprisings - Anadolu Ajansı

Ledaren för kurdiska partiet PUK tror inte på att den iranska regimen kommer avsättas i samband med kriget: för stark kontroll över institutionerna, inga interna uppror, ingen samlad opposition

Have you seen the commercial that brought down Kristi Noem?

It’s even more bizarre than I expected.

What is Trump’s end game in Iran — and does he even have one?

Plus — Kristi Noem out at DHS, an abysmal jobs report, and the Texas primaries.

@rbreich.bsky.social & @wkamaubell.bsky.social break it all down.

“My little girl was completely burned,” he said. “There was nothing left of her. We could only identify her from her school bag, which she was still holding. She was completely burned.”

Trump fired Kristi Noem.

It wasn't because her immigration agents murdered American citizens. Or the repeated violations of due process. Or even her mismanagement of FEMA.

No, Noem was fired because she upstaged Trump. He wants to be on Mt. Rushmore, after all.

This is the mind of our president.

A member of the criminal US government is resigning. Just keep the documentation and remember. There will be a time for indictments.

Varför slutar det alltid med att Säpo uppfyller Turkiets önskemål? Det är något som skaver. Det handlar om de senaste turerna kring Rojavakommittéerna – och om Joakim Medin.

Trump has launched a war in the Middle East without a plan, without a strategy, and without any clear idea about where it leads or how it ends.

He has no clue what he’s doing in Iran. [Cartoon by Brendan Loper]

Senate Republicans just voted to block our War Powers Resolution & allow Trump's regime-change war of choice in Iran. Once again, they're contracting out their constitutional duties to Donald Trump, despite the will of their constituents.

Shameful.

Enligt vita huset pågår det inget krig mot Iran, och därför behövs inget godkännande från kongressen. Det hela är endast en "specialoperation". Precis som i Ukraina, med andra ord.

Lögnen om bombningen av flickskolan i Minab i Iran. Och vad händer nu? - Magasinet Konkret Ett påhitt om en bombad flickskola i Minab blev viral sanning på X – och spreds av flera svenska profiler trots att uppgiften saknade stöd i verkligheten.

Ett påhitt från en regimkritisk Telegramkanal blev snabbt en viral sanning på X. Svenska profiler som Agnes Wold, Hanna Tehrani, Kent Ekeroth och Katerina Janouch spred vidare desinformationen att Irans regim själv skulle ha bombat en flickskola i Minab.

Quit ChatGPT: right now! Your subscription is bankrolling authoritarianism | Rutger Bregman As a historian, I’ve studied the major consumer boycotts of history. We can take down ChatGPT and send a powerful signal to Silicon Valley, says author and historian Rutger Bregman

There is a global boycott underway against Chat GPT. Open AI is working with the Pentagon and ICE. They have donated $25 million to Trump. They are working for the authoritarians. People have the power to resist and send a message to the toxic tech bros.

The Failures of “Centrism”
The Failures of “Centrism” By moving to the so-called “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Donald Trump: widening ine

As primary season kicks off today in North Carolina and Texas, some Democrats claim the party needs to "move to the center" to win in November.

Hogwash.

Democrats can't repeat the same failed playbook of the last 50 years. It's time for them to grow a spine.

Americans watched as federal agents killed two Minnesotans.

There is a lot of speculation on Trump's health. Time and time again he talks about what's next.

"I'm not sure I'm going to be able to make it to heaven" he tells us.

Maybe he will end up somewhere else.

På fotot står Shekarabi och talar framför ett foro på Shah-prinsen i exil. Är det inte vid Branting-monumentet i Stockholm? Ett svårslaget exempel på multipla helgerån.

Trump’s Case for War With Iran Faces Growing Scrutiny U.S. intelligence showed threats from Iran loomed, as they had for years. But they were not imminent.

Experten om attackerna mot Iran: Inte folkrättsligt befogat USA:s och Israels attack mot Iran är ett solklart brott mot folkrätten. Det menar Pål Wrange, professor i folkrätt. – Risken finns att andra åberopar det här exemplet, att Vladimir Putin eller Xi Jinping säger att ”om USA kan ingripa för att störta en regering utan något beslut från säkerhetsrådet, då kan vi också göra det”, säger han.

To put this in context: Consistently, about 13 percent of Americans believe in Bigfoot. So war with Iran polls slightly better than Bigfoot.
