“A DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credible—and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.”

The slurs somehow have more agency than the Republicans.
The “NYT actually assigns agency to the people doing the thing” headline challenge remains unwon.
I would really love to know how many people in the US know that the US overthrew the democratically elected government of Iran in 1953.
And this is not even a difficult argument to make. Too many Democrats have thoroughly internalized decades of bullying from the GOP, so they are afraid to take a strong moral stance that may bring Republican disapproval.
I predict that the ‘mindlessly follow the whims of a mad king’ method of governance will end badly.
And they largely ignored the double tap bombing of an elementary school in Iran.
Tax cuts for the rich and illegal tariffs for the rest of us combined to create yet another massive shift of the tax burden down the income ladder.
Plus the long-term effects of alienating allies, tearing up international agreements, crushing tourism, ending research, attacking universities, making climate change worse, and mass deportation.
Trump is so worried about retaliatory attacks, he put a 22 year old in charge of counterterrorism.
"Trump has squandered some of the country’s greatest sources of strength. By repelling nearly all of America’s allies—alliances that are among the best instruments of leverage Washington has in the world—he has paid China and Russia enormous dividends." trib.al/ufxc5eQ
Corporate broadcast coverage of climate change fell 35% in the last year, even as Trump systemically dismantled climate policy and billion-dollar disasters rose
The gradual deprioritization led NBC climate reporter Chase Cain to hit a breaking point, and he quit last week
Here's our interview:
The lack of media coverage about the bombing of the girls elementary schools is shocking.
This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

How long will Republicans follow Trump blindly off a cliff is the question that will determine if our democracy survives.
The Venezuela raid killed over 100 innocent people to catch one alleged criminal. The fact that the media ignored those 100 deaths is part of the problem.
Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump in Jan. 6 case gets life sentence for child sex crimes
If this is accurate, it’s among the most cowardly and despicable acts in the recent history of the American military. Every officer and common sailor who was involved in this affair, even to the extent of failure to object, must face court martial and the most severe penalty.
Kanwal Sibal @KanwalSibal • 6h X 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.
Some context to the Iranian boat that was targeted by US off Sri Lanka coast
Former Indian FM: “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”
Abu Graib was too woke for MAGA.
Bored of Peace.
Americans are dead. Prices are skyrocketing. The Middle East is on fire. Civil war is brewing in Iran.
And for what? A war that will leave the same hardliners in charge? A war that can't actually destroy their nuclear program?
This is incompetence. Plain and simple.
Rubio: “Let me tell you, Iran is run by lunatics, religious fanatic lunatics.”
CNN put together a video illustrating that while Trump regime officials keep describing the Iran strikes as a "war," Republican members of Congress are using all sorts of euphemisms
Trump’s health care cuts are projected to kill 10,000 Americans families per year.
Like Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
How much did Trump cut from cancer research because ‘it was too expensive’?
Given how little Republican politicians care about murdered school children in the US, no chance they'd muster an ounce of interest in the well-being of children elsewhere.

If you haven't done it already, it's well worth reading all of this October 2024 exchange between Cenk Uygur & Stephen Miller. Thx to Cenk U. for presciently focusing on reality when the entire corporate media refused to do so on principle.
This is clearly assault.
