El Pentágono ha ordenado a unos 1.500 soldados en servicio activo que se preparen para un posible despliegue en Minnesota, después de que Trump amenazara con invocar la Ley de Insurrección.

Andrea Costante The Islamic Republic has decided to shut off 90 million people from the internet until God knows when & has yet to provide any numbers, even though it's the government and would know them better than anyone. Just like they never gave a full death count for the 2019 protests.

Embarrassing for Obama and the Dems and a reminder that top Democrats need to rethink their whole approach to this issue as they helped enable the current Trump agenda.

Shapiro wasn’t asked if he was a “double agent.” He volunteered in a foreign country’s army and worked in public affairs at its embassy. It’s basic diligence for those vetting him to be next in line for President to ask if he ever acted as an agent—a legal term—of that country.

Zubin Metha dice que no puede separar la música de la política y cancela sus conciertos en Israel. Metha fue más de 40 años director de la Filarmónica de Israel y hoy continúa siendo su director emérito haaretz.com/world-news/202…

David please get off your ass in Bristol and go to Iran and try to purge the Islamic Republic of counter-revolutionary elements like Hasan Rouhani. I beg you to do this. While you’re there also get some dental work done; fairly affordable in Iran.

It's ironic that the worshippers of the US constitution have always touted its system of "checks and balances" as part of its distinctive genius and that at present every one of those supposed checks and balances is failing.

USA now in the Abdalá Bucaram stage of Latin Americanization. Straight up mad king shit.

A Palestinian American former Columbia student, who was forced out during the school’s activist purge while her family was killed and her home destroyed by Israel, reached out asking if I can help her find pro-bono legal support for reinstatement. Can anyone help?

Campism-addled minds will engage in some extraordinary intelectual contortions to whitewash the actual nature of dictatorial regimes, whether secular or theocratic, for the sake of the latter's proclaimed adherence to the "anti-imperialist" cause.

“We were only spat on once” 🦝

Europeans are only panicking over Trump’s assault on the so-called “rules-based” order now that they find themselves on the short end of the stick for the first time. Welcome to the world you helped build.

Incredible intersection: As Republians "investigate" a protest of a pastor who's also an ICE official (and block investigation of the ICE agent whose act of murder spurred these protests), a Catholic school is on a school shooter-esque lockdown out of fear of ICE agents outside.

Incredible and inevitable— Police chief says ICE agents violated his own officers' civil rights while off-duty. A female officer was boxed in by ICE agents who demanded her papers, pulled their guns on her, and knocked her phone down as she tried to film.

Since October till today, Russians have targeted Ukrainian energy infrastructure EVERY SINGLE DAY. Let that sink in. Russians are doing everything to make our lives hell. This is genocide.

Strange to see western leaders moralizing about the importance of the rule of law after a 2 year live streamed genocide they enabled.

Trita Parsi So the rules-based order was a fiction every Western leader politely pretended to believe, until it came to their door. Good to finally stop gaslighting the rest of the world. “We knew it was a lie. We just found it useful.” That’s the most honest Western foreign policy

Even the retiring Republican congresspeople have to abide by the “good czar, bad boyars” trope

Exactly: Carney was happy to tear down the rules-based order to help Israel slaughter Palestinians. He's taking exception because NATO nations thought they were immune from being treated like Palestine.

Everyone praising Mark Carney’s speech as “bold,” “brave,” or “eloquent,” and treating it as evidence that the West can still rescue itself, is still misunderstanding the nature of the crisis. The “rules-based international order” didn’t erode gradually or mysteriously; it
