You can read the NYT's take on presidential power, exclusively focused on Trump.

Or you can read about how nearly a quarter-century of precedent has brought us to this point (Thanks, Bush, Cheney & Obama!)

Hall of fame mental gymnastics to avoid saying Israel lied.

Just as with Biden, Trump admin officials are SHOCKED — SHOCKED! — that a right-wing, genocidal regime continues to kill Palestinians and bomb its neighbors with impunity.

Today is not the first time Netanyahu has gotten out of court after bombing another country. His appearance in March was similarly cancelled after Israel broke the ceasefire and renewed its mass assault on Gaza.

Genocide scholar Omer Bartov goes into great detail why Israel’s actions in Gaza constitute genocide. Although so many came to this realization early on, his essay is worth the read, especially his insights about the failures of other institutions to come to the same conclusion.

Americans support immigration — overwhelmingly, which makes the corporate Dem rightward turn on immigration that much more infuriating and unconscionable. The “leadership” of this party has no values nor conviction on anything except for perhaps more war.

The NYT “confirms” what we all knew: That Netanyahu has been using the genocide for his political survival. When will the media and political allies of Israel’s ring-wing government admit that the US is funding this slaughter, not for any military purpose, but to stop Netanyahu from losing power?

This is not about reciprocal tariffs but it’s worth noting that the U.S. has a trade surplus with Brazil, per the government’s own data.

Cmon man. Title makes it seem like someone accidentally stumbled inside a prison in a random country.

Here’s a breakdown from @nytimes.com about the potential Trump boon to various industries, including fossil fuels and crypto.
