The way sitting politicians can say this stuff about Muslims while facing zero consequences is an indication of just how entrenched Islamophobia still is in our institutions and culture.

I mean, yeah Chris. Neither of those men want a democracy anywhere, as they have proven with all of their bombing and murdering.

Chris Hayes@chrislhayes.bsky.social

Seems crystal clear that neither Netanyahu nor Trump want an actual democracy in Iran, they want a regime they can manage/work with like the gulf states.

You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America. And if it was any other president’s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, it’d be the instant end of their presidency.

People who say things like this don’t need to be listened to because they are willfully and intentionally lying

Jill Filipovic@jillfilipovic.bsky.social

What has the New York Times published knowing it was false? They don't always get the story right, and they issue corrections when they're wrong, but that's a pretty weighty claim to make.

Hegseth: "It turns out the regime who chanted 'death to America' and 'death to Israel' was gifted death from American and death from Israel. This is not a so-called 'regime change war,' but the regime sure did change."

It is not fun to call my reps and their constant canned response is “I haven’t spoken to the senator/congressman and haven’t been briefed yet but I will pass along your comment.” I asked Padilla’s office why one person cannot tell me unequivocally that it is wrong to bomb school children.

so, torture. they’re torturing them as federal policy. entirely predictable, but that doesn’t make it any less evil

Under a new policy released Thursday, the Trump Administration will test conversion therapy on trans people in prisons. It explicitly states that it aims to help trans people “recover,” all the while forcibly detransitioning them both medically and socially. transitics.substack.com/p/the-trump-...

transitics.substack.comThe Trump Administration is Testing Conversion Therapy By Medically Experimenting on Trans People in PrisonsThe Bureau of Prisons is subjecting trans people to conversion therapy and denying them care with the goal of helping them "recover." It's trying to prove dangerous conversion practices can work.

NYT says the damage to the hospital was likely from targeting "Network 2", a state-run news outlet. What NYT DOESN'T say is that targeting civilians, even those who happen to work for state-run TV, is a war crime. I wonder why they didn't want to print that? One can only guess... 🙄

I went through and added up the total paid rents through our adopt-a-rent program, and it is 329 families for $463,217. All peer-to-peer, no fundraising. Just neighbors helping each other out. If you want to adopt a family, and can afford to give $500 or more, signal me at asiniiwiikwe.72

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge. They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership. We do not have serious people running our country.

If I don’t bomb the school children I won’t get insurance is not a great position to be in but nevertheless it is a morally unambiguous place to be and we would be better off if more people could just do the right thing because it’s the right thing

This is exactly right. Carney endorsing the US strikes after his Davos speech six weeks ago is the best example I can come up with.

I'd like everyone to be careful about the "U.S. is a pariah state now" takes. The world can't afford for the U.S. to be a pariah state. Smartest thing American hegemony accomplished. No one is rebuilding those structures in a year or two and U.S. centrality remains the path of least resistance

Florida just cut off HIV meds for 16,000 people.

Jesspooka Kant 🎃@jessdkant.bsky.social

Unbelievable that we still talk about withholding HIV funding as a form of political maneuvering rather than an act of social murder, as if the 80’s + 90’s never happened and we didn’t lose an entire generation to this already.
