Turner overer of stones. "Do not do what is hateful to you to others. This is the whole Law. The rest is mere commentary." --Hillel, inexact. A tyrant is a beggar you can't refuse. American racism has NOTHING to do with Black people.

Slavery is theft. It is a special case because it is the theft of the potential of a person's entire life and, when continued for generations as it was in the USA, that person's inheritance and legacy. It steals *everything*. Slavery is to theft what genocide is to murder.

ICYMI, the issue here is not whether one person's life is objectively more valuable than another. That's a stupid, shallow, useless, worthless notion. The wrong is in acting like one life objectively matters more. And you can't do that without power over other people. And that is the root cause.

Vance's midterms pitch: "Give us another chance. Give us another couple of years"

I dunno. I see a WWE fighter raising his hand to tap out. Wait for the actual tap. Maybe two. Three. I wonder if Putin ever lets himself see that Zelenskyy/Ukraine "held all the cards" from the very beginning. He should have. They're next door neighbors.

BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked my War Powers Resolution that would have ended Trump's unnecessary, unjustified war against Iran. These cowards have had four chances to stop this chaos in the Middle East. And they put Trump's ego before America. Every damn time.

As simple as this...

Hij is niet ziek, maar de machtigste man ter wereld die - bovenop al zijn vergrijpen - openlijk aankondigde oorlogsmisdaden te zullen plegen. Hij hoort niet thuis in een psychiatrisch ziekenhuis, maar in een cel van het Internationaal Strafhof.

Ghana has been in the news recently as they have submitted a draft resolution before the UN declaring the Atlantic Slave Trade the gravest crime against humanity. In the spirit of that, March 25 is also International Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade

Not intended but rare, clear candor about the hubris of the US.

Millions blown to stop cheap drones — Ukrainian air defence advisers in the Middle East were left surprised as US forces fired costly interceptor missiles to take down low-cost UAVs, exposing a stark vulnerability with Ukraine’s air defense tactics. www.kyivpost.com/post/72300

Now we're at risk of a passive/aggressive coup? How does that work? Is that like a pillow fight?

Keith Olbermann@olbermann.bsky.social

HER TESTIMONY WAS GABBARD TELLING TRUMP TO GO F HIMSELF: Passive-aggressive and cowardly, yet it got the point across. Her testimony means Trump lied about Iran and nukes, and about seizing the 2020 Georgia ballots GET THE ALL-NEW COUNTDOWN PODCAST HERE: tinyurl.com/2jb6r3ev

Yep. Good way to put it.

Didn’t see the Oscars. Raving comments made me look on YouTube because I needed to see this for myself. What magnificence! Someday there’ll be sensible merit based decisions in these awards. Meanwhile, kudos to Misty Copeland, Michael B Jordan, Brian Coogler & their team. youtu.be/j3ae7BvTuC4?...

Breaking NBC: Greg Bovino, the U.S. Border Patrol agent who became the face of Trump's severe immigration crackdown, will retire at the end of the month, two CBP officials tell NBC News.

Kind of amazing how many seem to be surprised or amazed by any of this.

He genuinely thought he could just repeat Venezuela with absolutely no understanding of the region or its politics with half of his staff learning what the Strait of Hormuz was in Fox News interviews. Billions of dollars and thousands of civilians later the disaster is clear

Funny how that works. China gets commission fees reduced, the EU requires USB-C as standard plug, and in the US all it takes is a little golden bribe to avoid any hardship.

Not an excuse. But it is a most compelling data point when considering what forgiveness may be extended to Israel. It seems this father should be worthy of at least as much. As a father, I cannot say, if it were me and mine, that I could do any better than this man.

Apparently the man who rammed his car into the West Bloomfield synagogue lost his two kids in Lebanon to an Israeli air strike. Synagogues are not Israel. That is not an excuse. Just absolutely horrible and heartbreaking. This situation should never have happened. These kids should still be alive.

The "Art of the Deal" guy called Zelensky a dictator, mocked his clothes, and humiliated him in the Oval Office. Now he's begging him for help with the drones in his own war. Meanwhile, Putin, the man whose framed photo hangs in the White House, is backing Iran. Trump is indeed a master negotiator.
