🧵I think it's worth remembering three facts: 1. Israel is the only nation in the Middle East with nuclear weapons. 2. Iran does not have nuclear weapons. 3. Iran has a nuclear program that it says is for energy purposes. Is Iran lying about its intentions? 🤷‍♀️ But it doesn't have weapons now.

America was never meant to have kings. Not in 1776, and not now. As Franklin said, we have a republic—if we can keep it. That means standing up, speaking out, and staying peaceful. Vigilance without violence. This is our country. #NoKings

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.
