So, if Iโm following the general tone here, he had the opportunity to address the nation about the grave responsibility of taking us to war and he just sht talked for a while and left
"Quando a justiรงa cobra seus pecados, esses "mestres" preferem incendiar o mundo. Eles se iludem pensando que a Terra รฉ sua heranรงa permanente, esquecendo-se de que o รบnico trono verdadeiramente garantido a eles รฉ um assento nas cinzas."
Trump has launched a war in the Middle East without our consent, without a plan, without a strategy, and without any clear idea about where it leads or how it ends.

A cool leafhopper I photographed a couple days ago in Perรบ. Anyone know what species or genus it is? Reminds me a bit of Molomea but leafhoppers are really diverse.
Remarkable: With support for the Iran war tanking, Trump is now throwing away the GOP's advantage on three core issues: Economy, immigration, national security.
A year ago it looked like he might be popular on all three. He lit it all on fire. 1/

If you remember reading these, itโs probably time to visit the grand kids.
On this date in 1965, state troopers used nightsticks and tear gas to attack civil rights activists as they crossed a bridge in Selma, Alabama. The march, led by Martin Luther King, Jr., directly led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Read @virginiaheffernan.bsky.social on the "intellectually insecure reactionaries" around Epstein. Much here that I did not know

In case you missed it, here's my new article for Truthdig on Epstein's extensive connections to the TESCREAL movement. What have I missed? Anything?

MAGA confronts itโs biggest challenge invading Iran - geography.
Iโve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administrationโs Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them.
I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.
Sidebar but I am reading about India/Pakistan partition and boy religious nationalism leads to some really bad places, probably should stick with liberal pluralism.
Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:
It's come to this:
Virginia passes legislation prohibiting schools from teaching falsehoods about Jan. 6 riot

They're going to write books about all the big brain moves of this gang of imbeciles and among them will be "Spending a year trying to kill renewable energy and then launching a war that sends oil prices soaring"
Yes, WE DID!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are currently outside the ICE Broadview concentration camp where Sunny Naqviโs family believes her to be held after being detained in OโHare by federal authorities.
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.
It doesnโt matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. Itโll never cease to amaze me that people donโt care that itโs happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.
Why was this story on the front page of the UKโs Daily Telegraph โ but NOT Americaโs leading newspapers?
Left: Black-and-white 1860s portrait of Louisa May Alcott seated at a small table, wearing a dark Victorian dress with a high collar and ribbon tie. Her hair is pulled back and up neatly, and she gazes calmly to the side with a thoughtful expression. Right: Modern paperback cover of Little Women by Louisa May Alcott (Signet Classics edition). Four young women in colorful 19th-century dresses and shawls stand arm-in-arm on a grassy hill, seen from behind, with the title in elegant blue lettering and "LOUISA MAY ALCOTT" in white at the bottom.
American novelist and poet Louisa May Alcott died #OTD in 1888.
Alcottโs most enduring work is the novel ๐๐ช๐ต๐ต๐ญ๐ฆ ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ฏ (first published in 2 parts in 1868 & 1869). Never out of print, it has sold millions of copies worldwide in 50+ languages. #booksky #fiction #WomensHistoryMonth #WHM
