Taking out power plants is only ok if it is to facilitate a full ground invasion. If it’s used as punishment, it’s a clear war crime. Trump has removed all doubt about the whys and is clearly ok with war crimes. The question is will the generals understand they have some responsibility?

​🚨 URGENT: Threatening "nuclear" catastrophe in Iran and ignoring the Bill of Rights at home. Congress is silent while Americans die in an illegal war. Demand impeachment and the reclamation of war powers NOW! ​Stop the madness. Contact Congress with @resist.bot: resist.bot/petitions/PL...

Congress needs to wake the fuck up and take this war criminal to the Haque. Release the unredacted Epstein Files. Stop this unlawful war and arrest and imprison Trump the malignant narcissist and pedophile along with his entire Regime! They are all war criminals!

BREAKING: Thousands of Iranians are gathering on bridges and around power plants right now, forming human chains after threats of U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran's civilian infrastructure.

US military oath is to protect the republic from enemies foreign & DOMESTIC! Hegseth fired anyone standing in his way. All that is left is thoughts & prayers for peace. Everyone knows how that goes.

Adam, are you aware that thousands of flag-carrying Iranians are filling bridges and encircling power plants & other infrastrure, seeking to 'protect' them & defy Trump? This is incredible courage and they should be admired for it. bsky.app/profile/thet...

TODAY: Iranians are forming human chains around civilian infrastructure (bridges, power plants) as Trump threatens to kill them all

This is genuinely terrifying. He perceives it all as a reality show & everything-every single thing-he does is for ratings & attention. He seems very unstable & the Secretary of Defense appears to be caught up in an alcohol fueled political/religious theater production. Really scary times. 😬

"A whole civilization will die tonight" sure sounds like a nuclear threat. If a nuclear bomb is dropped in Iran, easy to think one will drop in Ukraine. Then what? The fate of our planet is in the hands of mad men. Meanwhile we are receiving amazing pictures of planet earth from Artemis II....

first, it was Just a little now, 'it's just Genocide in Gaza Iran.' remember the words of our Republican "Patriots"? 'bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb Iran'? it's just a little Genocide. Grow Up. .

Is your statement about eliminating civilian power plants being “ok” based on actual international law, or just US experience from having done this before? We need to distinguish historical failures from proper conduct.

Perhaps. But, it’s like sitting in a witness stand. Suddenly, one’s own moral compass bubbles up and may not stand with the Gang. All it takes is one. One General to say No. And it de-escalates.

He is both praising the new regime in the truth social post and also advocating for blowing up their infrastructure in the same post. The cognitive dissonance is just amazing.

Those were fired and replaced with talk show hosts and trump loyalists. The Democrats would never do anything other than primp and fuss. Nobody will stop him if he decides to wipe a whole culture off the map.

It’s time to stop blaming only Trump. He is being enabled. America is threatening to commit war crimes. America is bombing Iran. I see nobody protesting the war crimes at the White House.

I will remind you of that when one of the US enemies decides to do that for a ground invasion. You are a Military guy. IT IS A WAR CRIME REGARDLESS. The fact that you condone it on the pretext of a ground invasion shows your true colors. Trump is creating enemies of the US ALL DIRECTIONS.

I think it's been made clear that our top Generals and Admirals are complicit, already in Trump's pocket, and are more than willing to follow unlawful orders. Things need to change, and very quickly!

Any use of nuclear weapons against Iran is not only militarily unnecessary but would be hugely counterproductive. Among other things, it could send highly radioactive fallout into Oman, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and elsewhere—depending on where the wind blows.

The insane dementia patient has no way out and is certainly planning a full ground invasion. Aren't there currently about 60,000 of our young men and women over there? How many lives are republicans are willing to lose in order to protect this lunatic?

The military leadership has been purged of those who aren’t white power Christian nationalist fascists. If we can’t acknowledge what’s been happening before our very eyes, we’re really screwed.

You’re talking about these generals that are following all of his fucking illegal orders? Give me a fucking break These are the same cocksuckers that will be firing live ammunition at American citizens before the election

Adam, any chance any sane human has the ear of POTUS? Sure seems like his disdain for rules and norms is no deterrent to taking out power plants or doing worse. Alternatively, how can former military officers influence current ones to refuse illegal orders?

To answer your question Mr Kinzinger; no, there are no upper level high ranking military officers that are not in Trump's back pocket. They will do anything he says.

This nuance about ‘it’s OK to commit war crimes if it’s in support of a land invasion’ which could actually constitute a war crime and definitely a breach of international law all by itself is hallucinating

What Generals are left other than the yes Generals? They purged anyone who would tell him no. They aren't going to stop anything he does, including genocide. I'm the spouse of someone who served 20 years and it's a harsh reality to know we can't count on our military anymore.

If Trump carries out his threat the ICC needs to act immediately, but American citizens should also gather on the streets to condemn Trump. He's made the US a pariah nation, hated by all the world.

Mike Johnson’s Epstein War: America Last; Pedophiles First. It disgusts me that Johnson & Repubs are just waiting until the midterms to be kicked out instead of doing something now while America’s house is burning down. It‘s ALWAYS the Dems who have to come in and fix their mess.

Please If you’re a US citizen- do this today. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Make those calls now. While there’s still a margin of hope. Phone the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121. A switchboard operator will connect you. 5calls.org/issue/trump-...

Why are you there anyway, when your government is as bad as theirs, allowing people to die because they can't afford insulin, and protecting child rapists? Who the fuck do you think you are? Clean your own pigsty first, and get off your high horse, FFS.

To my mind General Caine is third in line right behind Trump and Hegseth in future war crime trials. I am disgusted at the way the military has allowed itself to be used.

One wonders if 47 thinks electricity in Iran means a single lightbulb in your tent at night — no biggie, right? Does he not understand there are hospitals, incubators, respirators, refrigerators, pumps, telecommunications, WiFi—a whole 21st century community he is heedlessly damning to perdition.

Hes never been held accountable for breaking the law so why would he believe he would be now especially when he controls every branch of govt & law enforcement?

"shall be removed" not "may" be removed Article 2 Section 4 of the Constitution “The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

I hope to God the Generals that remain will stand with the Constitution of the United States to which they are first sworn, and use a solid Moral Compass to guide their decisions.

We have used chemical and biological weapons in Iran during Iran/ Iraq war. Killed millions of innocent Iranian men women and children . Now we call the Iranians radical extremist and terrorists. We need regime change here immediately.

It's never OK to cause indiscriminate suffering for non-combatants, dipshit. It's about who you're targeting and proportionality of harm. Fuck your ground invasion excuse.
