Seems to me that Friedman is cheating: bootstrapping GOP Neo-Nazism and using that to conflate all opposition to Israel with being pro-Hamas.

This is a growing problem for people who advocate for Israel.

If a reasonable person would know the order is illegal, you MUST refuse.

Obedience is not absolute, duty to the Constitution is.

Oath is to defend the Constitution not a person

Yes. U.S. service members have a legal and moral obligation to disobey an illegal order.

Not just the right.
The DUTY.

This is about 300,000 soldiers instead of the current 800,000, according to US proposals.

Trump is not a comedian doing standup. He’s the PRESIDENT. Why would anyone assume that him calling for democratic lawmakers to be put to death is a joke?! His supporters are crazy this is an emergency

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

Mark Kelly: "He's talked about sending troops into more cities, he's talked about invoking the Insurrection Act. You don't have to go too far back to his 1st administration when he went to his Sec Def & said, 'Can't we just shoot these protesters in the legs.' That is an example of an illegal order"

Braverman isn't a dog whistleblower for far right extremists. She IS a far right extremist.

What she means by "the whole country" is English, Telegraph reading, port swilling gammonati. The rest of mainland Britain are either indifferent, have sympathy for both sides losses, or are republican.

Once again, we are way too relaxed about the fact that "shooting Irish people is good actually" is a mainstream political position on the neighbouring island.

The President of the United States is publicly calling for the political prosecution of his political opponents, urging the death penalty because they urged soldiers to uphold the rule of law.

This should be front page news everywhere. It is not, which tells much about how we got to this point.

When Trump was backed into a corner and facing loss of power and consequences for his actions during his first term, he leaned into inciting violence and talking about hanging people.

I see he’s at it again and likely for the exact same reasons.

The Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas and nooses as hate symbols.

This action, coupled with the President's call to hang Democratic members of Congress - both in the past few hrs - are more than "potentially divisive."

They are vile, unconscionable, and dangerous.
