In light of stripping Harvey Milk's name from a Navy ship, on this anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising, & in the sad aftermath of the assassinations of Melissa Hortman, her husband, & her dog, I need to observe that Milk and Mayor Moscone were also assassinated by a white male conservative.

It’s absolutely wild watching supposedly serious people praising Trump for striking Iran and then laying out some utopian and impossible route to “reshaping the Middle East and solving every ongoing problem” and expecting the dumbest, most incurious and incompetent president to carry it out.

What am I worried about? -Safety of 30k US troops in the Middle East -cybersecurity (since CISA was recently gutted) & homeland security (as HLS focused on immigration) -Economic strength (oil prices and tariffs) -Allied assistance (we’ll need that now) -Domestic intell (leadership at FBI/DNI)

While bombing Iran is bad for Trump’s poll numbers, starting a war and creating chaos is good for Trump as an authoritarian. Authoritarians exploit chaos to claim emergency powers, deploy the military domestically, and undermine free and fair elections. These attacks must be viewed from this lens.

There can be no future for constitutional government in the United States that treats this as merely an unfortunate election outcome producing an administration with bad policies. It must be repudiated root and branch as an illegitimate criminal enterprise, void and unlawful in its entirety.

The “USAID is propaganda” thing is the same as “Modern art was funded by the CIA” - they’re both statements by people who can’t conceive of America doing something good, or that doing good things like giving aid and creating art can be good for people receiving them and the country doing them.

Incredible the level of resources that CENTCOM can snap their fingers and materialize at will while the idea of giving Ukraine artillery munitions is depicted as an impossible task that would destroy the American war fighting ability.

I know that people traditionally disparage the power of the office of the vice presidency, but I still wonder of doing "freaking epic libtard trolling 😂😂😂" while service members wait on your senile bosses word on if they'll be sent to die was how you imagined spending your time in the office

Just days ago, Brad Lander called me to interpret for an Arabic-speaking asylee whose case was approved, yet ICE was still harassing him inside the building. Brad personally escorted him out to safety. He does this kind of work quietly, every day.

ICE just abducted a leading contender for the New York City mayorship for asking to see a warrant. I need everyone to understand that they are not a law enforcement agency — they are Donald Trump’s secret police.
