ShipwreckUS and Israel are planning what would be one of the harshest bombing campaigns to date against energy infrastructure targets in Iran, with strikes possible throughout the weekend.
Not only is this kind of rhetoric not shunned by other Democrats, it’s embraced. Stevens is the establishment pick just as Cuomo was. There’s a bipartisan consensus on leaning into Islamophobia. Our community gets scapegoated regardless of what happens, while they never self-reflect on this racism.

Seven-figure deal with 14-way auction for a book with a flat prose style.
Lincoln Michel👀 Fascinated by the "withdrawn by its agents" detail. So the AI use was so blatant that the agents due a huge payday preemptively withdrew the contract?
FIFA doesn’t own football, we do. And we can always demand accountability before the ultrawealthy strip the world’s greatest sporting event for parts.
TruthoutRep. Jamie Raskin has launched an investigation into dealings between Trump and FIFA, demanding that FIFA turn over any relevant documents, including visitor logs for FIFA’s office in New York’s Trump Tower. Raskin also demanded that Gianni Infantino sit for an interview with members of Congress.
The Islamophobic noise in this race has been so bad online, but far worse here in Michigan, where you can’t watch tv or YouTube without getting multiple ads dealing in the most vile anti-Muslim tropes shoved down your throat.

When Trump first made these threats in April many politicians (rightly) took this to be the terrifying threat of war crimes that it is. Now, several Democrats are clambering across the aisle to approve the NDAA, which would not have passed without them, while the party refuses to run on impeachment.

What makes this even more wild is that l within the last 2 weeks Trump threatened to sanction Spain and cut off trade.
