"We" are not in anything. He started a war because Congress won't insist on using its constitutional authority.
Senate Democrats willingness to allow "start a war" to be a reliable reset button for Trump is going to get so many people killed.
Hey Target, for free I can tell you: it’s not the products that tarnished your image and it won’t be product overhauls that help you “regain” it.
Minnesotans need @amyklobuchar.com and @smith.senate.gov to be utterly singleminded. DHS does not get to move on as Noem takes her favorite weighted blanket to her next post. Alex Pretti and Renee Good are dead. DHS murdered them. The conversation does not progress until we have justice. 2/2
DHS is responsible for a long list of atrocities in Minnesota, including two murders and dozens of violent assaults against citizens exercising constitutionally protect rights. Democrats should have no higher priority than making Markwayne Mullin understand his job will be a daily misery. 1/2
blue graphic with an outline of the United States. Red and white text reads: Call. National Book Banning Bill Proposed in US House of Reps. Tell your rep: Vote no on H.R. 7661.
We've had a day to pull a few things together, so here's a thread some more targeted info opposing the potential national book ban just proposed in the House of Representatives.
I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.
I’ve spent years, decades, obsessing over the Bush Administration’s Iraq WMD lies, writing about them, debunking them.
I can think of no lie about Iraq WMDs told by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld et al that comes even close to the enormity and absurdity of this lie from Donald Trump.
Now you have to refuse to vote for any new appointee, and immediately impeach any new secretary that is confirmed.
Being on the Trump cabinet is an impeachable offense.
Reuters Exclusive
"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
"The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the Middle East."
I have a terrible feeling you’re right.
Every D in the senate should yield their time to @smith.senate.gov and @amyklobuchar.com who will demand he commit to winding down DHS and delivering the men who murdered Renee Good and Alex Pretti to Minnesota for trial on state charges.
No yes votes for Markwayne. Fuck Fetterman.
Kristi Noem misattributing a paraphrase of Rudyard Kipling to George Orwell really does sum it all up huh
Target's new CEO says fresh eyes and respecting core values will help him regain customer trust
AP: Why hasn't Target taken a stronger stand against ICE? I know businesses have to legally allow agents in stores. FIDDELKE: When I think about navigating the start of the year here, especially in our hometown in Minneapolis, the thing that we have kept front and center every single day is the safety of our team. And so the safety of the team and the safety of our guests has been our North Star for decision making, and that's guided every decision that we've made.

Keep the words “safe” and “North Star” out of your mouth, you appalling little coward. You’re the CEO of Greg Bovino’s bathroom now. Nothing more. No media training will change that.
Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Just because you got fired, Minnesotans won’t forget what you did to our neighbors. We will continue to fight for you to be held accountable.
Abolish DHS.
Any D who votes to confirm a replacement must be unelectable forever after. Fuck Markwayne Mullin. Arrest the officers who murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

But then it would occasionally remind him it was a subscription chainsaw not a fan and he should really hire fan. But then it would change its "mind" and tell him just needed to get closer.
None of this is good. No one at an AI company seems nearly worried enough. 3/3

Was it a subscription chainsaw that he was using as a cooling fan, but because chainsaws are pretty bad at moving air, he had to get really close to feel the effect? Oh, and the subscription chainsaw was also encouraging him to get close in the most obsequious terms possible. 2/3
🧵The version of Gemini he was using costs $20 a month. I struggle to find analogies to help explain what AI as a consumer product feels like to me. 1/3
“When the delusion-fueled plan [to find Gemini a body] crumbled, Gemini convinced him that the only way they could be together was for him to end his earthly life and start a digital one, the suit claims.”
The seeds of the Iranian Revolution were planted when America engineered the overthrow of Mossadegh in 1953.
The brightest GOP hawks can maybe count back to 1979. Maybe.
In 3026, 🇺🇸 will kill countless civilians at astonishing cost and reset the clock to 1953.
Only arms dealers will benefit.
Not gonna share the video of Republican US Senator Tim Sheehy breaking a protesting Marine's hand, but you can find it on @charlotteclymer.bsky.social's timeline.
I'll just say that in a functional country, Sheehy would be expelled by the Senate.
Democratic Senators should publicly push for that.
"ICE does not target schools or citizens."
"The US military does not target schools or civilians."
Only the scale and cost are truly different.
The only certainties in the world are that the administration lies reflexively and that America is an agent of indiscriminate, lethal violence.
We will never forget. (This includes the feckless cowards on the D side who voted to confirm her. Nothing about how she's run DHS is remotely surprising.)
The man was detained last month after two women, who were ICE agents, knocked on the man’s door to ask for help with their car. The man, who is an auto mechanic, was surrounded by agents after he left his home to offer assistance.
Just days before the United States launched a major military operation in Iran, FBI Director Kash Patel fired a dozen agents and staff members from a counterintelligence unit tasked with monitoring threats from Iran, according to two sources familiar with the matter. https://cnn.it/3OKIl1o
Hilarious. No brand has more throughly salted the earth of its reputation *in its home state* than Target. The Target CEO who will see that recovery has not been born.
Target is Greg Bovino's preferred bathroom stop for generations to come. That's it.
What's scary about this story is the surveillance it hints at. This trans woman had changed her name, legally, but chose not to change her gender marker. She was apparently flagged in the DMV system as trans and her license was invalidated under a law that supposedly only concerned gender markers.
Where is the murderer Jonathan Ross?
Have you seen him?
He needs to come to Minnesota to stand trial for the murder of Renee Good.
Justice demands it.
There is no statute of limitations for murder.
