This administration illegally denied hundreds of people due process, then deported them to a country they’ve never known, run by an authoritarian infamous for cruel treatment of prisoners. They then deceived a federal judge to buy time for the planes to land so he couldn’t do anything about it.

Take a moment today to read about a few of the young children whom Trump and Musk killed by shutting down USAID. The blame for these deaths falls on them. There will be hundreds of thousands more dead kids before their lethal crusade against foreign aid ends. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Israel continues to violate the ceasefire with bipartisan U.S. support. The latest deaths included Mahmoud Sleem, the 205th journalist killed by U.S.-backed Israeli forces.

Marco Rubio claims US strikes are to stop Houthi attacks on global shipping. FYI: there have been no Houthi attacks on commercial vessels since last November and none targeting US Navy in the Red Sea since December. Attacks had stopped because of Gaza ceasefire. US is now making sure they restart.

YDP is still cross referencing the information available on US-claimed strikes tonight in Yemen. Reports of strikes in the Capital and in Sa'ada governorate. The Health Ministry in Sana'a has reported nine civilians killed and a further nine civilians injured.

The "peace president" strikes again

submitted 18 hours ago • 1 comment

Despite the Houthis ending their attacks on Red Sea shipping back in January with the Gaza ceasefire announcement, the United States has launched major airstrikes against Yemen. So far, the Democratic leadership in Congress has expressed no objections to Trump's decision to go to war.

Emergency wartime authority being exercised at a rare moment when the US is not active in major combat zones, no crisis at home, borders are secure, obvious large threats are minimal. There is zero justification to empower a president to detain or deport the natives & citizens of an "enemy" nation.

Still need more confirmed reports, but this is different from before All last year they were going after pretty clearly defined military targets This time they hit civilian neighborhoods, likely going after Houthi leadership

The headline really sanitizes what they did to this guy. Getting stripped naked, inadequate food, sleep deprivation sounds more like war on terror ear rendition than "interrogation."

It isn't arms control if there are no arms. Iran didn't and doesn't have nuclear weapons and it isn't trying to build them. WSJ is such a disgrace.

i'm still seeing analysts firewall what Trump is doing at home from what he's doing in the Middle East. Reasoning is that sure he may be a mad ruler domestically but he'll still be motivated to make rational decisions abroad based on national interest. That's not how it's working.

Hilariously craven. Democrats invoked a law allowing Congress to override Trump’s “national emergency” declaration, which allows him to impose unilateral tariffs. Requires a vote within 15 days. To avoid a vote, the GOP declared that the entire rest of this year will just be one very long day.
