NEW: This is what a ceasefire involving the Israeli government looks like. This was Beirut a few hours ago. 100 targets carpet-bombed in 10 minutes by the IDF across Lebanon. Schools, hospitals and even funerals obliterated. State terrorism. (🎥 Hadi Nasrallah)

Senate Republicans refused to convict Trump after Jan 6. Republican SCOTUS appointees gave him immunity. Republicans in Congress today stand idly by as he unleashes death and destruction across the globe. We are now at the whims of a mad king because GOP leaders have refused to constrain him.

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today: Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

Speaker Johnson, we are calling on you to bring the House back to DC IMMEDIATELY! The Cabinet needs to invoke the 25th Amendment. But Congress can’t just sit on its hands and wait for that to happen when the President is threatening to commit war crimes TONIGHT.

Hi Grace. Are you aware you have a responsibility to lead on this issue as a House member? Work with your colleagues to build support for impeachment. The country is in serious trouble, and this moment demands leadership. STOP WAITING FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO DO SOMETHING

The GOP must call Congress back into session to rein in the President and hold him accountable. (2/2)

I have voted twice to advance articles of impeachment. We cannot wait. Congress must convene immediately and begin proceedings to remove this man from office for the safety of our nation, Americans, and the world.

Do you know how EXTREMELY FUCKED UP SHIT HAS TO BE for me to be reposting Tucker Carlson positively???

Tucker Carlson: "It's vile. It begins w/ a promise to use the US military to commit a war crime. Those people who are in direct contact w/ the president need to say 'No. I'll resign. I'll do whatever I can do legally to stop this, bc this is insane. And if given the order, I'm not carrying it out'"

Whatever happens, this is a deeply shameful episode in American history that will leave a permanent stain on the country. Repeatedly vowing to commit war crimes against millions of innocent civilians is beyond the pale.

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.

Every single America needs to call their federal and state representatives and demand they act. Congress must remember THEIR OATHS! (202) 224-3121 CALL NOW! This is the most horrifying and psychotic message Trump has ever posted—openly threatening to commit genocide. This is beyond reckless.

Spare me the "it's dual use" argument. What do you think he means when he writes: "A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again." That's not about taking out military infrastructure. I'm sorry that you're in a shitty situation. You know what you have to do.

I feel sick to my stomach waiting around to see what atrocity Trump has in mind for the people of Iran this evening. It's hard to fathom our other elected leaders aren't able to check him in any meaningful way. It's an indictment not just of voters but of our whole system. We're ruled by a mad king.

Bombing power and water plants is exactly what Putin is doing in Ukraine. Trump wants to copy the tactics of his idol. By the way, Putin is losing his war on Ukraine.

⚠️ If you are in the Pentagon today working to JUSTIFY a target list including clearly civilian infrastructure, you are complicit in war crimes. You swore an oath. You have a duty to say "no." The consequences will be rough, but obeying will be worse.

This post from POTUS is impeachable. One lunatic does NOT get to wipe out an entire civilization. THIS is what Hitler did, and all you MAGA fucks call us crazy (well, you use the R word) because we see Adolf in Donald. Well, look no further than here 👇

Sen. Van Hollen: We have a completely unhinged president who is threatening massive war crimes against the Iranian people. This war was a mistake from day one. Trump lied when he said he was going to keep America out of foreign wars. He lied 3 weeks ago when he said we won the Iran war.

This is a supervillain monlogue. I will never understand how anyone can watch this man say things like “a whole civilization will die tonight” and fail to recognize evil when they see it.

He is insane. And this is an open declaration of intended genocide. If any other world leader said this, there would be sanctions and an arrest warrant, not just for him, but for his whole regime.

Ribbit reposted

Like most bullies, Trump can be constrained only if everyone stands up to his bullying. Keep protesting. Go to town halls. Protect the vulnerable in your community. Keep speaking out. The fight against authoritarianism will take all of us — and we can't relent.
