“Unconditional surrender” was the Allies’ demand in WWII. They backed it up by occupying Germany, Italy and Japan.
Is Trump prepared to send hundreds of thousands of troops to occupy Iran, a nation of 93 million people, and to risk the resulting casualties? If not, this is simply bluster.
What we see here is Donald Trump, acting as he always does, as a global chaos generator.
The further we stand away from that, the better off we will be.
Well said @georgemonbiot.bsky.social 👏

Well, he is the gangster of love.
Can’t wait until fessor encounters a cutlery tray with depressions shaped for different items that aren’t in KFS order. I imagine him breaking down and sobbing in the fetal position on the kitchen floor.
That right there is why he should have to get Congress's permission. Not as an afterthought. "Yeah, some civilians are gonna die" should have more say from civilians.
Also, fuck you, you senile fucking monster. You don't get to be glib about the deaths of your constituents.
ProPublica is awesome and you should read their stuff.
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.
If this causes the second season to become available on something I subscribe to, great. But I will not allow myself any expectation that this will be good.
Literally just got my heat pump water heater installed yesterday and have ~165 gallons of #2 diesel with nowhere to go. Do suppliers take home heating oil back? Is there a secondary market for such quantities?
Sincere question.
Also, entirely inconsistent with his claim less than a year ago that Iran’s nuclear capability had been “obliterated.”
The only way someone handpicked by Trump could stay a leader in Iran is if the Iranian people *didn’t know* he was handpicked by Trump.
So of course…

No! He should please go back to snorting cocaine off toilet seats if that distracts him from his “work.”

Makes sense. He’s got experience being a dictator, is probably scared of Trump, and is available.
Combined with Trump’s claim that the assassination was so “successful” that it killed his nest two choices to replace him, this is a very Jesse Pinkman “…but you killed him” moment.
Trump's trade policies have exactly the impact on US manufacturing that most macroeconomists said they would.
Freegan.
If you can transport a badger through time, surely you can transport it across the Channel. You just have to find a rabid one, and I know a guy.
Rabies is absolutely contagious to humans, and 100% fatal if not treated in its early stage. Indeed, it’s effects are so horrific that the infected human will lash out mindlessly and try to bite other humans if not restrained.
Kanwal Sibal @KanwalSibal The Iranian ship will not be where it was if we had not invited it to talk part in our Milan exercise. We were the hosts. I am told that as per protocol for this exercise ships cannot carry any ammunition. It was defenceless. The Iranian naval personnel had paraded before our president. The attack by the US submarine was premeditated as the US was aware of the Iranian ship's presence in the exercise to which the US navy was invited but withdrew from participation at the last minute, presumably with this operation in mind. The US has ignored India's sensitivities as the ship was in these waters because of India's invitation.
We are far from politically or militarily responsible for the US attack. Our"responsibility" is at a moral and human plane. A word of condolence by the Indian Navy ( after political clearance) at the loss of lives of those who were our invitees and saluted our president would be in order.
