seems like the clearest purpose of the war is to reopen the thing that closed because of the war?
Seems like a bad idea to only have one branch of government and the guy in charge gets to do whatever he wants
Trump sends mixed signals on when Iran War might End
Trump Zigzags on When War Will End
I’m not sure whether “mixed signals” or “zigzags” captures the fact that, in an unhinged press conference, Trump said completely contradictory things about the war that he started without explaining its goals or endgame and without getting Congressional approval.
love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region
There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.
Kanwal Sibal @KanwalSibal • 6h X The Iranian ship will not be where it was if we had not invited it to talk part in our Milan exercise. We were the hosts. I am told that as per protocol for this exercise ships cannot carry any ammunition. It was defenceless. The Iranian naval personnel had paraded before our president. The attack by the US submarine was premeditated as the US was aware of the Iranian ship's presence in the exercise to which the US navy was invited but withdrew from participation at the last minute, presumably with this operation in mind. The US has ignored India's sensitivities as the ship was in these waters because of India's invitation. We are far from politically or militarily responsible for the US attack. Our"responsibility" is at a moral and human plane. A word of condolence by the Indian Navy ( after political clearance) at the loss of lives of those who were our invitees and saluted our president would be in order.
Some context to the Iranian boat that was targeted by US off Sri Lanka coast
Former Indian FM: “US was aware of the Iranian ship's presence in the exercise to which the US navy was invited but withdrew from participation at the last minute”
They literally spent the past 4-plus years blasting Biden over the withdrawal from Afghanistan and how "rushed" it was.
Ok but why was an elite counter espionage unit investigating Donald Trump? Oh wait…
Before today, no F-15 had been shot down in more than 35 years — since January 19, 1991, during the Persian Gulf War.
Before today, the U.S. had never had more than one aircraft shot down by friendly fire in a single day, let alone three.
Hegseth: “We didn’t start this war, but under President Trump, we are finishing it.”
The truth: We did start this war two days ago. And now, apparently, we're not going to finish it in a way that will make it worth fighting. And we have a constitutional crisis.

Pete Hegseth came to national prominence and to Trump’s attention specifically for his defense of men accused of war crimes by their fellow American soldiers.
It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
Perhaps the terrorist state with nuclear weapons is …. {checks notes} … the United States of America?
It’s so easy to go from the No War president to the regime-change war president. Especially if you’re the Board of Peace chair.
there's a lot of specific overwhelming and massive crises happening at once and every single one has at its root elites who did crimes and never suffered consequences for it.
You sound like an unhinged person if you in plain words describe what’s happening, but the Trump admin demanded Anthropic’s AI be able to kill things for it w/out human approval and also do mass surveillance.
Anthropic said no, and now the admin is trying to destroy the company in retaliation.
Bro is gonna be mayor for 9 terms
Part of the context here is that Bucks County recently elected an anti-ICE sheriff to replace their pro-ICE sheriff. The actions of Quakertown police (which is separate) are best understood as a gang that sees its power to intimidate slipping and so has initiated a violent suppression campaign.
Undocumented immigrants don’t vote
Trump was not “exonerated” re: Epstein
The board of peace is a huge grift
The Melania movie was a bribe
You pay the tariffs
The boat bombings are murder
The ceasefire is not a ceasefire
Ice is not targeting criminals
And on and on
this is not real. AI slop. Reported.
already reported this, but wanted to make sure you are aware of this AI fake using your image and voice… bsky.app/profile/thom...

Great news, son! The Turning Point USA All-American Halftime Show Is On!
The Trump family pockets a cool half billion dollars in order to turn over a technology in which US taxpayers invested tens of billions to the Emiratis—against the advice of the national security community. And US media decides it's nothing really worth talking about.
I think it should probably be a bigger story that the president of the United States is a raving lunatic
The Washington Post - Opinion Little to gain by raising taxes on the rich New research shows the current top federal income tax rate is close to revenue-maximizing.
Truly hilarious headline from the Bezos-owned Washington Post yesterday.
Never, ever let the guys who control half the wealth in America and just got billions of dollars in tax breaks tell you we shouldn't tax the rich.
We gotta come up with a better system than “everything rests on whether these twelve billionnaires are nice”

Quote lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Jan 25 Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.) But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.
