Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.
Imagine all the cool, fast trains we could have with the billions we spend on bombs.
the price of oil surging means you can burn your shein clothes, extract the oil, and make more money than you paid
If anyone is up for boosting, Bandcamp is holding a fundraiser for the Trans Continental Pipeline to help trans people escape from Kansas!
harris was also wrong about how to beat trump iirc. kinda the most important test of each of their careers. both wrong. worse for harris because she went second and still lost
I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)
clinton's plan to beat trump was to elevate him above the rest of the republican field and then coast to an easy victory. i don't think she was right about that
repeatedly sexually assaulting one of his employees while he was president seems like solid evidence he is a rapist
this is only going to accelerate as various places run out of stored oil
So true queen
is it so hard to see people are not waiting to be told what’s possible
particularly when people are putting their safety on the line to defend people from abduction by the state—is that expressing “disagreement” with anti-immigration “policy”? or maybe, more simply and directly, it’s people standing in the way
it’s never felt more stark to me, the way direct action, community defense, and a whole host of forms of refusal are being blunted by those see (and/or who want others to see) such actions as “disagreement with a policy” or “seeking policy change”
there are greater christological schisms between actual christian denominations than between islam and like catholicism
It's probably good for israel that all their news stations have cut to entertainment programming after a series of bombardments. That must mean it's over lol.
what is the case for thinking that the duration of the conflict will be up to Trump?
Surely this is not shocking, but Rogan had most of the big anti-trans scientists that my reporting found to be in the Epstein files on his podcast.
Krauss even tried to connect Epstein to Rogan at one point.
Whoa! 💥
Crazy footage emerges of an Iranian missiles striking Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia
US military facilities in the Persian Gulf are being attacked relentlessly.
It's hilarious that "working class" now applies exclusively to the racist failsons of regional car dealership owners but every unemployed trans person is an "elite".
As one of the fifteen or twenty genuine Liberal Internationalists in the US, all of whom are active on this site, I do think we really need to confront the fact that a genuine liberal-democratic "rules based" international order cannot be underpinned by arbitrary and hegemonic US military might.
So many “misfired Hamas rockets”

Russia invaded Ukraine and has bombed civilian areas.
Israel has invaded or bombed Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, Syria, Yemen and Qatar, and has targeted schools, hospitals, mosques and churches.
Israel and Russia did the same shit, guys. The US did it in Iran, too.
Chancellor of the world's premier Do Nothing State which is the de facto leader of the Do Nothing Continent is now upset that Doing Nothing has enabled the US and Israel to do whatever they please to whoever they please
If other people's children are fair targets in war, then so are yours.
An elementary school in the Iranian capital Tehran’s Niloufar Square has been struck in US-Israeli attacks, according to Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei. Baghaei on Friday shared a video on X, purportedly showing Shahid Hamedani School with students before and after the attack, without elaborating on the circumstances or the number of casualties.
The US and Israel have apparently attacked another elementary school in Iran, this one in Tehran.

Our leaders approve a one trillion dollar military budget every year regardless of who is in power. I suppose that money has to be spent. "We are in it," is a pretty good way of articulating that, even if it's a REALLY fucked up thing to say. We are truly a spiritually deceased nation.
![Isaac Chotiner: What should or should not prevent a U.S. President from deciding that he or she can wage military action or bomb another country if he or she wants to? What should be the constraints? It doesn’t seem like Trump has laid out a clear reasoning for why he’s doing this.
Rep. Greg Landsman: I think the Administration has. I think Marco Rubio did lay out a clear reason for doing this now, why it was important, and why it will be limited. Again, Trump is not a disciplined person, and so his communication has been all over the place, and that is, in and of itself, bad.
Rubio also said on Monday, “There absolutely was an imminent threat, and the imminent threat was that we knew that if Iran was attacked and we believed they would be attacked [by Israel], that they would immediately come after us, and we were not going to sit there and absorb a blow before we responded.” What did you make of that statement?
I was really disappointed that he tried to lay the blame on somebody else.
Especially because Rubio is not the erratic one. That’s Trump.
Exactly. I was disappointed in that, but especially when he clearly set out to make one argument during that whole press conference, which was this is a focussed operation on the missiles and the missile launchers and the nukes and the ships.
Not the nukes. They don’t have nukes.
Sorry, you’re right. The facilities, the nuclear facilities. And he was locked in on that, and I think that is the argument. I think that is the operation. That has to be what they continue to focus on. That he would veer from that was disappointing, and I suspect he was disappointed.
That’s definitely telling us that he’s thinking about these things.
Yeah. Look, it’s obviously multiple countries and not just Israel. This is becoming a much bigger moment. Despite real tragedies here, which are awful—and there’s nothing to say other than it’s terrible—may this all be for something very powerful and good and transformative, which is the end…](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:mencpxk4spd3xn3qotwkyyqf/bafkreiha6sprq6zz3ao5pmed2gyboiat4qerrctlo6b5xx2xksqde2lkkq@jpeg)
