Some thoughts about the military parade in my hometown of Washington DC today -- specifically, the route. Military parades in DC are quite rare. But when they happen, they have always begun, symbolically and geographically, at the Capitol and moved outward. 1/

Analyst on MPR asked about whether political violence is a problem now, and talks about partisanship. No. The problem is an enormous and growing community of far right radicals, mostly online. They are encouraged by Trump and his cronies, and actively celebrate violence, without consequence.

Being a historian doesn’t give me the mantle of authority to say definitively what’s happening here or how anyone should respond, but I feel qualified to say this: If you were writing an account of how the United States devolved into violence and fragmentation, all this would be chapter 1 or 2.

The news isn’t being clear about this but to people hearing about these Minnesota shootings: Melissa Hortman is the Dem leader in the Minnesota House and was Speaker of the House 2019-2025. She’s probably the most influential state-level Democrat barring the governor.

If we’re keeping count that’s - - one governors mansion set on fire - one successful political assassination - one attempted political assassination -four elected officials arrested/charged/roughed up by the cops -one threat to arrest a sitting governor/liberate his state w/boots on the ground

Impressive win by OKC. Still believe that the Pacers are destined this year.

It really looks like OKC is fumbling this series. Helps that the Pacers have the Mandate of Heaven this year.

From a dear comrade who was kind enough to let me share their video. Veterans stage a sit-in on the US Capitol steps and say, “Military off our streets!” Hell yeah!

<thread> On the left: June 12, Judge Breyer writing that THE test for whether the US Marines/Guard violate Posse Comitatus will be whether they've engaged in "detaining" civilians. On the right: June 13: See for yourself. Note: The DoD has confirmed the detention of civilian to Reuters.

This is so clearly illegal, unconstitutional, unAmerican, and antidemocratic I don't even know where to begin.

This implies the “deal” was bullshit, and Trump knew a war was coming, one we’d inevitably be part of. It also explains Rubio’s comments, meant to mislead #MAGA into thinking the US isn’t involved.

A lot of people are falling for this fake account. Thank god for Grok honestly. It’s the only good thing Musk has done to Twitter.

It’s actually quite dismaying how many supposed left-wingers on this website are shitting on No Kings / discouraging protesting this weekend because… checks notes checks notes again, disbelievingly “people who might be cringe might also show up”

Israel's strategy appears to include creating enough of a mess that the US is entangled and finishes its job for it (notably, by taking out Fordow). This would be a mistake of the highest order.

Unless Israel changes what it's targeting in days ahead, this is a regime-change strike with just enough targeting of nuclear infrastructure so Netanyahu can depict it as an act of preemptive self-defense. For the operation to succeed, I think the regime has to fall.

I strongly oppose Israel’s attacks against Iran and Iran’s attacks against Israel. Both endanger civilians and risk all-out war. If you’re like my opponents and only condemning one side, I hope you find a spine and some moral clarity.

Across multiple reputable news sources, the emerging consensus is that Hegseth’s tenure marks a period of serious dysfunction at the Pentagon. Strategic missteps, political maneuvering, and internal fallout are converging in a rare moment of institutional distress.
