I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran).
The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.
I am generally a (very) critical person when it comes to legacy news media. Having said that, what is otherwise one of their worst qualities—their oppositional defiance disorder in the face of criticism—is likely gonna kick in hard in response to this threat & make them push Iran coverage even more

President Donald Trump was warned before launching military action against Iran that Tehran could try to shut down the vital Strait of Hormuz – a move now helping drive up oil prices and fuel economic fears.
Donald Trump is notorious for filing lawsuits at the drop of a hat. He's filed over 4,000 of them. Many for defamation.
But Donald *will not* sue Ted Lieu for defamation. Why? He's been told by lawyers that in defamation actions, truth is an absolute defense.

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."
Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.
A Democrat has won the mayor's seat in Boca Raton... by one vote:
BREAKING: Exactly one year since she was detained, an immigration judge has just ordered the release of Leqaa Kordia — the last Columbia protestor still in ICE detention.
DHS has kept her, despite a magistrate judge recommending her release and an immigration judge already *twice* ordering so.
Minnesotans deserve restitution from ICE's terror campaign.
The ICE surge cost Minneapolis $200 million in just one month. That’s before overtime, charter flights, and detention contracts.

HOLY SHIT.
A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election.
Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?
Got to keep bringing this up: imagine the reaction of the media (and Republicans) if a Democratic president casually talked about a Russian leader helping an American adversary targeting American troops as if he were subservient to Russia.

I think it’s more likely that Hegseth thinks “no quarter” sounds cool since he sees it in his Christian Nationalist 4Chan groups all the time, and doesn’t know what it actually means.
Declaring “no quarter” is a war crime. Pete committed a war crime this morning. bsky.app/profile/bcfi...
