Using Charlie Kirk’s assassination as a pretext, the Trump administration is planning on “an organized strategy to go after left-leaning organizations” that had nothing to do with his murder.

Last week, Donald Trump dismissed five of the seven members of Puerto Rico’s Financial Oversight and Management Board. The move is part of a hostile takeover of the territory made possible by its corrupt neoliberal elite.

From the Dallas News, co-authored by a friend of mine:
"Preserve the Texas-Mexico relationship"
Tariffs threaten successful partnership rooted in decades, even centuries, of trade. Economic integration, like the golden goose, needs care and feeding.

Not worth the trouble for the left to get divided over your vote. Yes, it's revolting to support anything that MTG supports, but it's also true that financing Israel's defense is a way of supporting its offense at a time when they need first of all to be halted.

For what it's worth, knowing that the ambassador does not believe that the occupied territories are occupied, because a book written over 2000 years ago does not recognize that fact.

P.S. No, I don't use twitter anymore since now it's a cesspool much but sometimes it's worth pushing back.

I was briefed on the intelligence last week.

Iran posed no imminent threat of attack to the United States. Iran was not close to building a deliverable nuclear weapon. The negotiations Israel scuttled with their strikes held the potential for success.

There could be no clearer a statement of the problem at hand. This war needs to be stopped and Netanyahu must no longer be enabled. Only the U.S. can impose diplomacy over war. To avoid catastrophe, that's what needs to happen.

Israel is not winning. Trump must not cave to new demands for help.
As Iran mounts an effective response to Israel's war of choice, why should the president now risk US lives to join it?

Let's not get too worked up or full of our own rhetoric. Khanna is wrong about seeking agreement with Musk, but he is not a Nazi. Give us a break. He's a social democrat and they're among the good guys.

Hope he backs off the horrible idea of cultivating "agreement" with Musk. That's toxic. But otherwise, Khanna has some pretty good ideas about what we ought to be fighting for (not just against).

What should replace ICE? A humane immigration agency that takes the lives of people into account and not just enforcement according to a punitive reading of the law; that is not violent, not secretive, and does not crow about the cruelty it practices or act as if it were above the law.

Upon arrival in Mexico, and before even presenting his credentials to the government, the new U.S. ambassador, a former CIA agent and organizer of covert operations in Central America, had dinner with a figure of the Mexican far right, whom he called "my brother".
