Attacking Iran fits with Trump’s desire to divert attention from his failures at home: his losses in the courts, his unpopular budget bill, millions of people protesting against his authoritarianism.
When he feels humiliated, he gets reckless.
Understand what's going on.

To distract from the story of our age: that the President of the United States is enriching his family with billions by running a corruption racket right out of the Oval Office.

Black men of more modest means saved enough to buy a home—only to be denied because of redlining—while a white man with the same means isn’t. The opportunity for generational wealth was systematically blocked for most Black Americans, and consequences of that injustice persists to this day.

Giving the bully your lunch money, apologizing when he bumps into you, changing your route to school such that it takes you off course just empowers his terror. Law firms and their clients mustn’t cower. This is a stand up, all rise moment for the legal profession. Stop blinking.

We don’t if they were gang members, only that Trump’s DOJ says they were. But they’ve had no trials. They are “accused.” They are “alleged” to be members of a gang that Trump has named. And now they are vanished.
This is an actual nightmare and we should be up in arms.

250 Venezuelans have been disappeared into one of the worst prisons in Central America based on Trump’s invocation of a law only used 3 times in our history - the last time resulted in the Japanese-American internment. These men have had no due process. It’s monstrous.
