Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation.
I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

NYT continues into its third day of failure to cover the turmoil in Iran with any measure of seriousness. On the other hand it does give us some interesting holiday brussel sprouts recipes.

Fact check:
✅Chicago's crime rate was already down
✅NG troops were never actually deployed in the city
✅Some did patrol a suburban immigration facility for just one day
✅We did have hundreds of federal agents here terrorizing the city & suburbs but Trump's guard plan in Chicago was foiled

Trump announces he’s pulling the National Guard from Portland, LA, and Chicago but threatens that “We will come back, perhaps in a much different and stronger form, when crime begins to soar again - Only a question of time!”

The dripping contempt the right wing SCOTUS majority holds for district judges is truly a sight to behold every time. When they deign to give actual reasons for their shadow docket holdings, it’s “look at the absolute idiots who keep getting everything wrong!”

🧵10 ways MAGA is NOT like the Nazis🧵
The right wing hates it when people compare MAGA to the Nazis, as I’ve done in the past, based on their fascist behavior. But to be fair, I’ve decided to provide the other side. So here’s a thread with my list of 10 ways the MAGA movement is NOT like the Nazis.

I am sounding the alarm on the real crisis we face today.
Donald Trump’s overreach is what our founders warned against – it is unprecedented, unwarranted, and un-American.
There’s no emergency here that calls for military intervention.

While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

"In an administration in which the sole goals are valorizing Trump & making him as rich as possible, any official who demonstrates an ability to effectively carry out the business of the govt is viewed w/ profound suspicion. But those willing to learn incompetence & moral obtuseness are promoted."
