I will miss Kristi Noem's inimitable constitutional insights, as when, asked by Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H. at a Senate hearing to define "habeas corpus," she replied, "Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country."

So Trump wants to appoint a foolish and immature hothead with no impulse control to protect the American people.

What could possibly go wrong?

Great read from @aselrod.bsky.social on Trump lingering lovingly over descriptions of violence and death.

"This obsession with the bodyβ€”and particularly with the body as the subject of serious injury, even deathβ€”is a hallmark of right-wing politics in America."

The lifeblood of MAGA is sadism.

It appears that possible DHS agents or bounty hunters? (still unclear) fired a weapon towards protestors yesterday in Minneapolis. They were seen leaving the area in a white van with a fake business name and disconnected phone number.

Mapped the evacuation orders issued by the Israeli army in south Lebanon over the past two days. The March 03 order marks a significant expansion beyond the immediate border towns and well beyond the Litani River. I counted 105 villages so far.

How strange. They want the area right next to them to be emptied of people. It's almost as if they will move their own deranged settlers in.

Urgent warning to residents of southern Lebanon: Hezbollah’s terrorist activities are forcing the Defense Army to act against it with force. The Defense Army does not intend to harm you. For your safety, you must evacuate your homes immediately. Anyone who is near Hezbollah members, its facilities, or its weapons puts his life at risk. Any house used by Hezbollah for military purposes may become a target. To the residents of southern Lebanon, you must go right away to the north side of the Litani River to ensure your safetyβ€”evacuate your homes immediately and move northward beyond the Litani River. Be aware that any movement southward will endanger your lives.

Quick translation of the IDF statement ordering all of south Lebanon's population to immediately leave.

Keep in mind that Israel has never stopped bombing south Lebanon since the 'ceasefire.' They are now taking the next step to destroy as much of the country as they can.

The IDF just ordered the *entirety of south Lebanon* to be forcibly displaced.

They are emptying the land of its population, creating a massive crisis, and will now proceed to further annihilate large parts of Lebanon.

The very nation state of Lebanon is being destroyed.

Labour is what happens when the nominally "center-left" party stands for absolutely nothing and just shifts more and more to the right in a foolish attempt to woo voters to their right: a massively unpopular party that's going to get absolutely crushed... and right-wing policies.
