This ghoul has finally been fired. But make no mistake, Stephen Miller is still in charge of DHS and especially ICE.
@lauracmorel.bsky.social reports from inside the weekly vigils that refuse to let Florida’s most notorious detention camp and the immigrants detained there be forgotten.
A development such as this has been a goal for HIV researchers for decades. It is important because people who are faced with difficult treatment regimens are less likely to be compliant.

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."
One thing about these big camp systems is that they inflict a tremendous amount of harm through sheer momentum. When a system is built to be both negligent and punitive, it tends to cause suffering by default.
Note that as our allies draw away from our fresh military adventure and are then berated by our president, he is the same asshole who only weeks ago demeaned and denigrated our allies who shed blood with us in previous military adventures, claiming they had not served on the front lines.
The White House just posted a video mixing real footage from the Iran strikes with a killstreak animation from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

Mercury poisoning is back on the menu.
Here’s @jeva.bsky.social with the story of how the Trump administration’s rollback of coal plant emissions regulations could wind up in your tuna:

They cut Meals on Wheels for seniors, doctors for the VA, and food for American children - but send billions of taxpayer dollars to the Middle East for an unnecessary war of choice.
…that's trying to make Trump look bad.
It's his own reckless actions.
1/-The Other 98%"Military commanders told troops Trump was anointed by Jesus to start the apocalypse in Iran, according to over 200 complaints.Since Saturday, the Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been flooded w/complaints from service members in every branch of the armed forces. "
The American Dynamism conference from Andreessen Horowitz is taking place today.
American Dynamism = venture capitalists starting and profiting from war.
Most of the press corps is not allowed into the Pentagon, where decisions about the war in Iran are being made—this lack of information makes it harder for journalists to do their jobs and harder for the American public to understand what’s happening, Nancy A. Youssef argues:
“Nothing happened. There wasn’t even a whimper.
The Trump administration just marched in and destroyed the crown jewel of climate science in the United States”

Having suffered the pain of a tooth infection I can unequivocally say that this man died in absolute agony. The type of nerve pain that will have you screaming and wondering quite rightly if you’ve gone insane
This man was tortured through neglect, and everyone involved is an irredeemable monster
The only thing you can count on in this country is death, taxes, and our PROFOUND ability to restrict the vote in Black communities.
And still we rise.
The air quotes around “Mr Lewandowski is your ‘special advisor,’ correct?” are brilliant. That’s my Norwich neighbor! But facts of this blatant and massive heist are stomach curdling.
It’s the second time in a week that federal judges in New Jersey have raised concerns that officials may be violating court directives and have added new safeguards to prevent it.
After four days of hesitating, the president of France has joined the prime minister of Spain in saying that the 🇺🇸🇮🇱 attack on Iran is a violation of international law.
But they are still the only 2 EU leaders to have done so. Will others join?
While we fend off the Trump regime's repeated lies about its attack on Iran, let's not forget that the regime is covering up FBI interviews of a woman who says Trump sexually assaulted her when she was a minor. (NYT gift link)
2. I think the administration owes it to the American people to have briefings not just for members of Congress, but for the American public.”
1. Senator Richard Blumenthal on Iran:
“I just want to say I am more fearful than ever after this briefing that we may be putting boots on the ground and that troops from the United States may be necessary to accomplish objectives that the administration seems to have.
As Trump endangers our servicemembers' lives in the Middle East, he's also cutting care for veterans back home.

My research is on working class women and AI and the ONE consistency among all of the interviews we’ve done so far is concerns about data centers and environmental impact. We do not bring it up - they do. Every single one.
Trump has assumed the power of a king – to decide whether people live or die, based on his personal preference.
We see it in Iran, on the high seas, and in the streets of Minneapolis.
We must take away Trump’s license to kill and re-impose the rule of law.

Republicans always think that the rules don't apply to them.
They lie, they cheat & they're corrupt AF!
It's outrageous that they would subpoena Secretary Hillary Clinton, who never even met Epstein, yet HOTUS along with POTUS were friends with #Epstein & have tons of pictures with him & Maxwell.
It’s an illegal war.
Grounds for impeachment?
