"The Peace President."
To be clear: decapitation strikes, assassinations & a broad array of military options against Iran have been available to every president since Carter.
Their advisors cautioned that if they attempted these actions, chaos, terrorism & wider war were real & very likely possibilities.
They listened.
Thank you!
Vote Idaho guide with dates
Can someone who knows more than me, confirm whether this March date is the actual last date to change party affiliation in order to, say, vote as a republican in a closed Idaho primary coming up this May?
Dammit, I hope you all feel better soon and shit, I hope that’s not what we have.
Interesting 🧐

Willem Arondeus was a gay Dutch artist who participated in the bombing of the Amsterdam public records office to hinder the Nazis from identifying Dutch Jews and others wanted by the Gestapo.
His final words before execution were, “Tell people that homosexuals are not cowards.” 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Much to think about here:
"If we conflate damage to people with damage to property, then we might think that the “side” that has physically harmed no one (but has damaged a lot of property) has been more violent than a side that has physically harmed many people."
Need something like this for Idaho as their operations ramp up
This is incredible! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a close up of an Idaho Blue Jay like this before. 👏 great work, Charles Wheeler!
Wow.
In case anyone has forgotten ⤵️
It’s worth the 5 minutes (or less) it’ll take to scroll through this comic but holy shit it’s some black mirror type stuff.

probably not great that every natsec-adjacent reporter has spent the last 24 hours going "ron wyden expert here, this is not cute, ron wydens only do this when they're very distressed"

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

When they tell you Idaho stands with ICE:
I love how many amazing events took place today as acts of love & solidarity.
I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I approve this message.
Dear sweet Jesus, what a headline. Who’s next?
“A coup is happening in the United States.”
Jason Stanley, author of How Fascism Works, argues that President Donald Trump is leading an unlawful takeover of the US government.
We. Are. Under. Reacting.
“Idahoans are shouting from street corners across the state: We want ICE out of our communities, schools, hospitals and workplaces,” said Mike Satz of The Idaho 97 Project.

As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—l've seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly. What's unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn't "protest." It's low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who've clearly studied the playbook. Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups).
🚨 FOX & MAGA are framing resistance to the ICE surge as a centrally organized and well-funded "insurgency" similar to that faced by US forces in Iraq.
This is DANGEROUS rhetoric, setting the stage for vigilante action and/or a massive federal roundup of activists under the guise of anti-terrorism.
"This isn’t about immigration enforcement. This is straight-out fascism. ... They are using the mechanism of armed officers with masks who are beating up and killing citizens to create disruption, so they can use more force to eliminate the possibility they could be removed from office."
