There is one party that will benefit from the war: Russia. ... Rather than confront Putin, Trump is rewarding [him] by relaxing restrictions on Russian oil exports. Energy profits fuel Putin’s kleptocracy, and his failing state needs a boost. Trump will give it to him.

This is the first war that feels like it’s been launched by A.I: It’s all been done on a level less than thought.

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.”

Because Trump has no conception of the seriousness or complexity of war, he apparently believes he can “turn off” the war like a water spigot. Not so. He has provoked Iran into taking measures that are not easily reversible.

It is impossible to look at the current crop of fascists, with their ostentatious displays of machismo, and not see the urgency of a basic education in gender studies.

We must raise our voices so loudly that Congress rouses itself to do its job by exercising oversight of Trump’s war. A great opportunity to do so is on March 28, 2026, the next No Kings Day.

Rebecca Solnit Says the Left’s Next Hero Is Already Here
A lot of the left wants social change to look like the French Revolution or Che Guevara. Maybe changing the world is more like caregiving than it is like war.

Opinion | The Idea That Trump Was Antiwar Was Always Delusional
What Trump has always hated isn’t conflict but sacrifice, the notion that American power should ever be constrained by a veneer of idealism or care for global opinion.
