Fears that the Iranian regime could be using the recent conflict with Israel to crack down on its own population grew after three people were executed and hundreds more were arrested and accused of spying.

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪

Most (only?) hopeful energy story in America today.

Three years without the protections of Roe v. Wade. Three years of cruelty. Three years of women denied care, criminalized for miscarriages, and forced to cross state lines in crisis. Three years of the GOP screaming “freedom” while snatching away our bodily autonomy. (1/2)

Never forget: TV producer Mark Burnett reinvented failing businessman Donald J. Trump to be the star of his own show on NBC and both of his presidencies are really just poorly scripted made-for-TV movies.

Truly horrified by this order in way that is deeper and darker than I have felt over many truly awful merits decisions.

The president just now

The world's dumbest timeline

Brownshirt ICE rolled up to my local Home Depot today and got the F-off treatment. Shoutout to this woman because this is exactly how it’s done. No badge, face covered = F*ck all the way off. 📌 It’s on us citizens to stand up for our vulnerable brothers and sisters.

The Supreme Court majority today allowed third-country deportations to continue for now with only the barest wisps of allusion to due process. But what strikes me most is the cavalier way it did so. (Thread) www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p... www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Trump’s war. He started it. He owns it. He violated our constitution. He’s a lawless, war Criminal. Can’t anyone in his administration distract him from making these piss poor decisions that put us all in danger?! #ProudBlue #OneV1

mass deportations will cost us for years to come. racism is the only reason.

If you are Republican and a lawmaker, abortion laws do not apply to you. Ladies of America! How do you feel about this? Shouldn’t laws (as stupid as they are) be applied equally to all women? #FIRETHEGOP #Pinks #ProudBlue #Onev1

I served 10 years in the USAF. Morale, at this moment, is incredibly low. The elephant in the room is we hardly have enough people volunteering to serve relative to the MASSIVE need. Knee jerk decisions like LA and now Iran don’t help. Few want to be forced to do something questionable.

With ICE wearing plain clothes, harassing & kidnapping citizens in unmarked vehicles, how am I supposed to tell the difference between a pig and someone who just really wants to be a pig? 🐷🐷🐷

..NRA executives, contractors, and vendors were extracting hundreds of millions of dollars from the nonprofit’s budget through gratuitous payments, sweetheart deals, and opaque financial arrangements.”

Just when the paid MAGA shills got done cranking out 36 hours of posts to their divided cult that this was only about nukes and not regime change, Trump does it again …

The racism is off the charts with this regime.

I wonder how many people realize that America is now literally at war *solely* because Trump hates black people Obama signed the Iran Nuclear Deal; Iran stopped enrichment; Trump ended the Deal to spite Obama; he was told enrichment would restart; it did This is *Trump’s* war

A million people marched against the illegal war in Iraq and they were right. Now the same script is playing out again. Same lies, same institutions, same push for war. We can’t let history repeat itself.

Younger people will be shocked to hear this, but way back when I grew up, anytime you saw a movie where some government official stopped someone on the street and demanded to see their identification papers, that was supposed to let you know they were the *bad* guys.

NEW: The DHS has issued a heightened terror threat for Americans. Good thing we have that 22 year old former gardener in charge of counterterrorism and DHS is busy with mass deportation. www.dhs.gov/ntas/advisor...

Step 1: Bomb Iran Step 2: Ask - *checks notes* - China not to let them retaliate? www.cnbc.com/2025/06/22/u...

I assume you're all googling "Strait of Hormuz" rn.

Trump launching us into war with Iran is a flagrant abuse of power + an impeachable offense. The Framers were clear with the War Powers Clause in the Constitution: only Congress could take the nation into war. He must be impeached and removed from office. @fsfp.bsky.social www.impeachtrumpagain.org

Schiff: "It's not an operation that should've ever been authorized by the president in the absence of intelligence showing that Iran had made the decision to break out and build a bomb."

Take note.

BREAKING: Navy launched 30 Tomahawks into Iran

Russia basically betrayed Iran, this could work for them by luring the US into another middle eastern clusterfuck and US policy makers to focus on that instead of NATO and Ukraine. It’s a gamble and heavily relies on an idea that Iran could sustain long enough.

Trvmp thinking that Iran is just going to fold or the idea that Iran is going to comeback and negotiate is delusional. Trvmp has already bombed Iran which was- Against international Law! Against the security counsel of the United Nations! Against Congressional authority!

🚨An illegal war has begun. Trump launched strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites without Congress, without cause, and without consent. This is a constitutional crisis and an act of global aggression. Be where you need to be. June 22. 12PM #3E #Indivisible #Fiftyfiftyone #HandsOff #NoTrumpWar #NoKings

polling on bombing Iran showed the public very solidly against it and they have put absolutely nothing into selling it besides “lol I’m the president I have bombs isn’t it so cool” I guess we’ll see how much the war-horny media does to shift things but loud immediate public opposition will be key

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 BREAKING: Congresswoman AOC calls on TRUMP TO BE IMPEACHED over illegal attack on IRAN. @aoc.bsky.social

ive never seen so many old men rock hard on national tv until tonight- every old white guy is salivating about how dope it is that we finally struck iran

When your job is Secretary of Defense, it’s 10pm on a Saturday, your boss just bombed Iran…but you’re bombed too.

United Nations Secretary-General: We strongly condemn the US bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities, which constitutes a dangerous escalation of the conflict in the Middle East. The aggression seriously violates the UN Charter and law and plunges humanity into a crisis with irreversible consequences.

this is part of the reason they helped trump get elected. they like bombing iran, they like trump and they want to help him do it.

It's entirely possible, not the likeliest outcome but it wouldn't be shocking, Iran's retaliation will be weak and ineffectual and gets shrugged off with no ongoing American bombing campaign. But that scenario makes it absolutely no less a crime against the Constitution meriting removal from office.

The US strikes on nuclear sites in Iran are an extraordinary turn for a military that was supposed to be moving on from two decades of forever wars in the Middle East, write Helene Cooper Eric Schmitt and @julianbarnes.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/06/21/u...
