I’ve studied US drone strikes, I wrote a book called “Drones and Terrorism,” and this Caribbean strike is different. Lethal fire at a non-threatening target in a non-hostile environment on purpose when other means, such as capture, were easily doable, and without even attempting a legal rationale.

The National Guardners
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.

19 and counting GROUNDS FOR TRUMP'S IMPEACHMENT & REMOVAL
President of Portugal on Trump: “The leader of the world's greatest superpower is objectively a Soviet or Russian asset. He functions as an asset.”
Another day, another shooting. Children dead and injured. Why is there never enough white-hot burning rage about this? I don't want to hear Democrats telling us that their "hearts go out..." etc, etc, etc. I want to hear them screaming "ENOUGH OF THIS FUCKING SHIT!!!!" at the top of their lungs.
Canada will end up carrying the torch of North American cultural excellence into the future. The United States is now a failed society.
I’m from another country…and it’s called fascism, definitely fascism.
Straight truth from Tim Wise on Immigration. History American history

If you’re a convicted felon and your character witness is your dear old friend, the convicted child sex trafficker and enabler of your other dear old friend, the most notorious raper of children in modern history, you’re definitely a total piece of shit.
Welcome to America’s Trumpsonian. (The animated political shorts by Mike Fiore are genius!)
Relatable…but sadly, I have misplaced my VHS machine.
At the command of the president, red states are sending armed troops to occupy a blue city based on a manufactured crisis, over the objections of that city's leadership and 80 percent of its residents. If this isn't authoritarianism, I'm not sure what is.
Temu Columbo.
Trump is an idiot. Putin is a war criminal. Putin will not negotiate in good faith. Putin only responds to force. Arm Ukraine heavily. Empower Ukrainian intelligence. Sanction Russia fully. Finance with seized Russian assets. Rebuild Ukraine. Authorize NATO membership.
Exhale.
🤣 At first I thought it must be AI, spoofing on the Columbo aesthetic.
Why aren’t every single one of these warrantless, masked, ICE abductions being challenged in court? There must be human rights groups willing to finance the fillings, no?

Absolutely true, and not controversial for a healthy majority. Also, Trump is dangerously demented.
It’s simple!
There was a minute dark corner of my mind that entertained the possibility that Trump coaxed Putin onto a US military base, so we could simply arrest him for ICC War Crimes, defacto ending the war, and collecting his Nobel Peace Prize. That part of my mind also lights up for fantasy movies.
Just for those who may be a little confused: This is how an American president should treat Putin.
The US so close to another renaissance era. We had an improving economy, decreased violence, exploding science, increasing compassion for non-homogenous people, low teen pregnancy, gains for women in earnings and sexual harassment. We could have done great things.
Someone's getting a good deal this Back To School season, and it's not you.
Fascism is here. We are not “getting closer” or “in danger of.” This matters because it frames our discussion: We aren’t trying to prevent it, we’re trying to defeat it. It’s not taking over our institutions, it’s taken them over. Otherwise, we’re always behind, fighting a past we’ve already lost.
Huh. Another day, another mass shooting in America. Not Great. Gun laws work.

Senator Jon Ossoff continues to bring that truth. He’s so impressive.
People ask me all the time: how do we actually fight the oligarchy? Here's my answer.
Jeff Daniels speaks out.. He's everything that's wrong. We’re supposed to elect the best of us, not the worst of us.
Domestic terrorists…
The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke on film, he used his voice not for comedy — but to deliver a powerful denunciation of rising fascism worldwide. The question is: are we listening now?
Former NOAA Administrator Richard Spinrad: "I am convinced that the staff cuts that we saw were a contributing factor to the inability of the emergency managers to respond."
Same…

Just because he pulled out doesn’t mean it’s over. Rapists never understand that #NoWar #ImpeachTrump
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

“Fixing climate change is too expensive.” Um no. What’s really expensive is doing nothing. Climate disasters cost billions—and those costs are rising fast. Climate solutions save money and lives, as well as building a better world for us all 🌏💚
So many people have grown up to be the villains of our stories.
It’s Election Day, Canada. Go vote Canada Strong.
Exercise your right to vote today, Canadians! Own your democracy! 🇨🇦🗳️

I absolutely adore the symmetry of this photograph in evoking both a sense of calm and foreboding. Beautiful.
Helluva opening paragraph that.

Great, now use this letter as further evidence of the Government’s refusal to facilitate Kilmar’s return for due process, in violation of the SCOTUS order.
Yes, one ‘person’…with 77M accomplices.
Carney: The system of global trade anchored on the United States.. is over. Our old relationship of steadily deepening integration with the United States is over. The 80 year period when the United States embraced the mantle of economic leadership… is over.
At least according to the movie “Ferris Buelers Day Off” the tariffs threw us deeper into the depression: m.youtube.com/watch?v=yuOH...
R.E.M. Is For Planned Parenthood. What they’re fighting for is pretty simple: the freedom for everyone to control their own bodies, health, & lives. Everyone deserves access to safe, high quality, affordable care. Go to ImForPP.org to get involved m.youtube.com/watch?v=7y9U...
You have to see this. PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

This hasn't gotten enough attention. Very effective questioning by Rep. @crow.house.gov in span of 3 mins 1. exposes how Hegseth endangered servicemembers' lives 2. shows that a scandal upon the scandal is the failure to take responsibility Crow is a U.S. Army veteran (Bronze Star Medal)
That mountain is known locally as “The Beer Can” so it may be a fitting tribute for drunken incompetence.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I think Marco Rubio probably needs to be sent back to school.. When you arbitrarily rip up trade agreements, threaten a country, and say you’re going to break it, that’s an act of war. And Canadians have responded in kind.
They’re streamlining the process in real time… www.cno.org/become-a-nur...
I sincerely hope we are working on an aggressive campaign to recruit the talent being forsaken in the US. It’s like when the US exported our aviation brain trust to create Skunkworks…but in reverse.
