Reminder: Trump/US bombing of Iran will never seem as "successful" is it does at this instant: -When Trump/Hegseth can say nuke sites "completely and totally obliterated"; -Before Other Side has made its next move. (Cyber / oil / commerce / terrorism / etc) Today is "Mission Accomplished" moment

25 years ago I believed that our country had just elected the most dangerous and stupid man in its history. I had no fucking idea what was coming.

Our Greenway’s fairy house is getting more elaborate every day. I’ve never seen anyone add anything and no one has ever seen me. It’s all done by the fairies and it makes me so happy.

The first time I was angry enough to drive to DC and protest was against the Iraq War. It’s 22 years later and we’re right back there. Only with even more clowns at the wheel.

They’re going to try to make you feel insane for opposing this war. They’ll ignore protests and downplay any opposition. They’ll try to strongarm you into submission. They did it with Iraq and they’ll do it again. And then a few years later they’ll pretend they were with you all along.

Q: The DNI concluded in March that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon. What new intel does the US have that Iran changed its position? HEGSETH: The president has made it very clear that he's looked at all the intelligence and come to the conclusion that the Iranian nuclear program is a threat

Pete Hegseth: “Many presidents dreamed of delivering the final blow to Iran’s nuclear program & none could until President Trump.” Yes, Pete—Trump finally did what others wouldn’t: ignore intel, destabilize the region, & risk another endless war. Bold move if you’ve learned nothing in 20 years.

Iran’s foreign minister today: “We were in the middle of negotiations … I think they have proved that they are not men of diplomacy and that they only understand the language of threat and force, and this is very unfortunate.”

Trump has effectively launched the U.S. into war without congressional approval, without a declaration, and entirely on impulse. Call your Congressperson and demand Congress to speak out and to take immediate action to stop the U.S. from entering a full-scale war.

You Gov numbers: "Only 16% of Americans think the U.S. military should get involved in the conflict between Israel and Iran; 60% say it should not and 24% are not sure" It's going to change quickly, but let's at least remember where we started. today.yougov.com/politics/art...

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

THIS JUST HAPPENED: Brad Lander walked through the fire, got burned, and came back with a fucking gasoline can. ICE arrested him — now he’s escorting migrants right past them, again. Most politicians wouldn’t show up. He showed out.

That it’s possible to say this in public with no consequences is ultimate proof cancel culture is not a thing.

Trump thinks 11 federal holidays out of 260 working days in a year (4%) is too much But he had no problem spending damn near 25% of his first 150 days back in office golfing Truth is... he's a racist who wants to erase Juneteenth & MLK's Birthday from the federal calendar

I'll give SpaceX this: that was a sweet explosion. If you're going to catastrophically fail and burn billions of tax dollars, that's the way to do it. 100/10 on the explosions rating scale.

I'm NOT saying that NASA didn't have its share of horrible accidents, but if in the 1960s their shit exploded as often SpaceX shit explodes, it would've been shut down way before they got to a moon landing.

Trans rights are human rights. This wrong decision by an illegitimate Supreme Court* allows cis minors to get gender-affirming care, but denies that same care to trans kids — an unconstitutional double standard that treats trans people as 2nd class citizens.

1. There are almost no stable jobs for humanities professors anymore 2. Most of us at state schools with decades under our belts earn less (a lot less!) than first year business or med profs.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' More of this, please"

Melissa Hortman was only 55 years old. She had a lot more to do. It is so bitter and so sad that her life was taken - assassinated for fighting for what she believed in. It will now be up to us to carry on these fights.

Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop! Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels
