@ai6yr on one hand, I’m glad our judiciary still has scruples. On the other, I’d love for a petty judge to order contempt holds against folks who say unfounded shit, and do so in a place like rikers. Politicians deserve the worst of what they allow.

people who say #claude is sentient:Should it be tried for war crimes at the Hague for the atrocities against civilians including striking a primary school? And, when found guilty, executed/dismantled? Or are you just doing PR#ai #uspol

Has anybody tried Peace through Peace?#Iran #RepublicansOwnThis #USPol

@limebar anyone who doesn't do play along is outcast and silenced

@AkaSci No other president would be golfing in the middle of a war of choice he started. I think it's a way for his handlers to remain in control and keep Trump away from the cameras and microphones.To paraphrase Tom Nichols, it could be because the guy they're handling is so base, crude, selfish, and rapacious that he can stand at Arlington with a gold star father, viewing hundreds of acres of gravestones, and ask him, "I don't get it. What was in it for them?"

@kimlockhartga I'd not be surprised if they literally have .50 BMG posted on many driveways.Cuz I do know that even in small consulates they tend to have at least half a dozen M4-SOPMODs in a locker…

”Everything we can save is worth saving. Everything we can do is worth doing. We’ve already lost a lot, but we don’t have to lose everything. We don’t have to surrender.””You do not get authoritarians to behave better by being meek and gentle and polite. You get it by being strong.””…the counter to Trump always has been and always will be civil society.”https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/07/magazine/rebecca-solnit-interview.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share#solnit #readthis #uspol #nyt #resistance

@Gurre Sadly, this is a realistic scenario.And given how many Dems refuse to abolish ICE and still fund them, I wouldn't count on the Dems dismantling SCOTUS' fascistic majority ever.@broadwaybabyto

A US citizen born in Illinois reappears after being held by ICE for 2 days and after family members traced her phone and protested her imprisonment.https://www.audacy.com/wbbm780/news/skokie-woman-us-citizen-held-by-ice-for-2-days#law #uspol #immigration #news

Today on "Democrats are absolutely useless"..."<Democrat> meets with <Trump official>, seeks assurances" is one of the dumbest things you can say or do, and yet they keep doing it.You can get whatever "assurances" you like from anyone in the administration, but the minute Trump's swiss-cheese mind misfires a braincell or Stephen Miller's racism-boner twitches or Russell Vought sees an opportunity to executive-order women back into the kitchen, it's out the window and they'll do whatever they want to do.If you want to make sure they don't do something, pass a goddamned law. That is literally your job.

Interview: "A huge amount of global oil & gas passes through the Strait of Hormuz, particularly for Europe. It's already starting to affect the oil price."Alastair Crooke unpacks:* the flawed assumptions of the US about how a war on Iran would pan out;* Iran's military strategy - first, exhaust the Israeli et al. interceptors...* how the war will affect the global resource flow and economy;& much more.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YL8rXeNkXsQ #USPol #eupol #IranWar #USImperialism #Economy .

I do not trust the person responsible for putting over half of all things in the sky so far. He feels like the King of All The Cosmos still on a bender a lot more than he feels like a hustlesome prince trying to fix things up there #usPol #katamari
