No evidence has surfaced directly tying the suspects in the Gracie Mansion incident to ISIS—but by simply claiming some relationship, “perpetrators can spin a largely unsuccessful act into something grander and more terrifying,” Juliette Kayyem argues.
Sen. Graham who helped bring this war is now begging Israel not to target oil facilities in Iran. The Gulf states rebuke Israel for disinformation it spreads about their engagement in the war. The WH has reporters post stories about "concerns" about Israel's campaign. That is where we are today.
The WH so poorly planned any strategy for the most likely Iranian response to our war that now nobody talks about how the war was neither legal or justified in the first place. There was no imminent threat.
She can do no wrong. A gorgeous Magnetic Fields cover (!) (reminiscent of Margaret Glaspy's, which I'll link below) to help raise $$ for children devastated by war. And the video, footage filmed by children in Gaza, Sudan, Ukraine and Yemen ... hope against hope.

Israel targeted Iran's oil facilities for the first time early Sunday, with videos showing huge flames lighting up the sky, while Iranian state media reported officials were close to announcing a successor for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. n.pr/4b2M1Tu
The March 15, 2025, killing of Ruben Ray Martinez drew almost no public attention.
But Martinez is now the first known American citizen shot to death by federal immigration agents during President Trump’s second term. https://wapo.st/4lbpGYC
Wow. @keenanclimate.com delivers in his book NORTH: The Future of Post-Climate America. He examines the future of climate migration and the changes that are about to come to our cities as the oceans rise. It is informative and compelling. Bravo, friend.

Again and again, I repeat. For all the war hawks or idealogues talking about a transformative moment, let me make this clear: the Gulf states will soon teach the US that they love their commerce more than they hate Iran.
Iran has the capacity to launch terror and cyber attacks against allies and US. Due to DOGE, partisan firings of FBI and cyber officials, and lack of focus or know how by AG Bondi and DHS Noem, they are ignoring this possibility completely.
Unstable.

NPR reports that a U.S.–Israeli strike
has hit a girls’ elementary school in
Iran. Iranian officials say 53 students
were needlessly murdered.
America is murdering children to
protect a fucking child murderer.
"Make it make sense..."
I love that we all know 90 percent of them will flip on a dime now, from “trump won’t send your sons to war” (like it’s only sons) to “trump is sending your sons to war and that’s good.”
He’s not addressing the nation anymore today.
The U.S.-Iran conflict grew from a high-stakes exchange of miscalculations between two men, Karim Sadjadpour argues:
In the past, sometimes presidents have said it’s just a military operation or limited airstrikes to skirt Congress. Trump has unilaterally launched major combat operations, declaring war with the goal of regime change. A major violation of the U.S. Constitution, also illegal under international law
“.. Over the past year, he has .. ordered military strikes in seven nations. His appetite for military intervention grows with the eating.”

Trump is pursuing war in Iran without congressional approval, with little appetite among his base for another regime-change operation in the Middle East, and with allies in the region having discouraged it, Nancy A. Youssef and Jonathan Lemire report: theatln.tc/UHnAEJAr
FEDSPEAK: “.. several oil tankers are moving away from the Strait of Hormuz. Kalshi has the odds of a full closure of the Strait at 41% (slightly lower now), and this is what the market will care most about in terms of the attacks' macro implications.”
Democrats need to stop hiding behind legal concerns or asking for briefings. This is wrong. It is deadly. It is being run and managed by a political leadership that is not capable. It is without justification.
This is psychotic.
major us and israel attacks across iran as expected.
unlike regime change in iraq and afghanistan, unilateral in us decision process.
no coordination with allies (other than israel), no deterrent effect of adversaries.

The president has no idea why we are going to war.
Just a reminder: instead of an actual diplomat, we sent Trump’s deeply compromised son-in-law as the lead negotiator to avert war with Iran.

THIS.
There is no justification for this war. Not even close.
The steady drift toward war against Iran is not matched by clear strategic thinking.
FAFO on her new signature coin.
Classy as always.
