@PollTracker2024 If the establishment of this party wants voters to defer to their competence then they should probably have demonstrated they could easily handle the political neophyte who made bad posts.

WaPo: Democrats worry Schumer’s pick in Maine could imperil hopes of Senate control
Maine’s Democratic governor, Janet Mills, has gone negative against Graham Platner. The attacks have not worked, and Minority Leader Chuck Schumer so far has declined to bail her out.
“One recent poll conducted by a firm that also works for the committee that elects Senate Democrats found her lagging behind Platner by nearly 40 percentage points.”

NYT is great because you can read a wide range of opinions spanning from “Iran is ontologically evil and must be destroyed now” to “Iran is ontologically evil and this failed war somehow made them a greater threat and they’ll need to be destroyed later” nytimes.com/2026/04/09/opi…

If you want to understand why there's no substantive opposition to Trump's war with Iran, watch this. What they object to is just the aesthetics, not the idea of crushing potential threats to Western hegemony, as distasteful as they find the Madman theory of public relations. 1/

"Not the language I would use": Keir Starmer responds to Trump's Truth Social post on Tuesday threatening "a whole civilisation will die." Speaking to ITV News' @peston, the PM said "they're not words I would use," saying "I come at this with our British values and principles".

@MaxAbrahms Lmao everyone's pointing at laughing at your dumb ass. Pathetic stuff.

Sorry to say it but the war cannot end until the Strait of Hormuz is open and it will never be safe with the current Iranian leadership.
This is a Realist position, not a Neocon one (before Realists traded their foundational theoretical ideas to instead just vilify Israel).

“My problem is not with Jews,” he said brownly, stretching his hands out, presumably in the direction of Mecca.
I gathered my courage and timidly asked if Israel had a right to exist as a Jewish state.
His eyes, dark as crude oil, narrowed, Jafar-like, and an Islamic grin spr

Abdul El-Sayed, who is Muslim, walks a fine line on the Jewish state. On Tuesday night, he told the crowd—as he does often—that his problem is not with Jews. “All of us love and revere Jewish folk, our Jewish neighbors, the faith of Judaism,” he said, hands outstretched. Later that night, in a makeshift spin room assembled by the campaign, he rebuffed my question on whether he believes in Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state. “What do you mean by ‘Jewish state?’ ” he retorted, narrowing his eyes. “If you can’t answer that question, I’m not going to answer it.” For someone who often waves around his respect for Judaism, he seemed unaware of something elementary: Judaism is not only a religion, but a people with a long-standing connection to Israel that runs through its prayers, traditions, and history.

@ToddSherer1 Everyone is the Gaza Health Ministry now huh? Perfidious middle easterners have just never ever once accurately counted the dead. They're all lying, every time, everywhere?

@ChrisMurphyCT Then why are you pissing your pants about how humiliating and embarrassing the terms of the ceasefire you supposedly support are? Are you going to try to make up for this embarrassment with brinkmanship later?
English
If you've paid any attention to what I've said for weeks, you know I want the war to end immediately. So of course I'm glad if this ceasefire holds.
That's not inconsistent with pointing out that we are worse off now than before the war started and that's it bad if Iran controls the Strait. I've been 100% clear there is no military means to reopen the Strait and the only way forward is for Trump to stop the war.
I think it's important to point out how ham handed this entire endeavor has been - and how nobody should see Trump's actions as some expert manuever in war making and statecraft.
Adam Johnson@adamjohnsonCHI
Murphy explicitly lobbies against the tentative ceasefire deal. Pray tell Chris what terms do you think Iran will accept after the US sneak attacked them, killed their leaders, did an OKC bombing on a girls schools and killed 4K+ more? Some version of this is the only way it ends

Pakistan is the White House-chosen mediator and the WH agreed to Pakistan's terms! And they specifically, explicitly include Lebanon. Including for the US and "its allies."
To just flagrantly lie about it less than 24 hours later is insane.
Ryan Grim@ryangrim
The White House asked Pakistan to mediate the ceasefire talks, and Pakistan’s PM announced: “I am pleased to announce that the Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States of America, along with their allies, have agreed to an immediate ceasefire everywhere including Lebanon and elsewhere, EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY.” Israel has carried out large scale massacres in Lebanon since, and Trump has apparently approved of this. Iran saying the strait is now closed again as a result of this treachery. Has there ever been a pair of countries less trustworthy than the U.S. and Israel?
English
Shit does that mean Israel will start declaring us legitimate combat targets who are financing the largest sponsor of global terror?
Eylon Levy@EylonALevy
If President Trump lets the Iranians charge a toll for ships in the Strait of Hormuz, then every time you fill up your car at the pump, you will put money straight in the pockets of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. This would be a humiliating disaster for the US.

- iran “exacting tolls on the Strait” is the only plausible mechanism to secure war reparations for mass war crimes
- They “keep their nuclear program” because they have a right to nuclear energy under NPT
- “They keep their missiles” b/c countries have a right to self defense
English
@ChrisMurphyCT How is anyone supposed to take this as anything other than you telegraphing how hawkish you'll be should your party get power back?
English
This is an account close to the Iranian leadership. We are now seeing the shape of why Iran agreed so enthusiastically to this "ceasefire".
They will control and toll the Strait for the first time. They keep their nuclear program. They keep their missiles.
What a disaster.

۰۴:۳۶/ ۱۹ فروردین طی ‘توقف آتش’ دو هفته ای، تنها حدود ۱۰ تا ۱۵ کشتی با موافقت ایران، در هماهنگی با نیروی دریایی سپاه و پس از پرداخت عوارض از تنگه هرمز رد خواهند شد و امریکا متعهد است تمام اموال بلوکه شده ایران را آزاد کند. تنگه هرمز به هیچ وجه حتی پس از توافق نهایی به شکل سابق، ‘باز’ نخواهد شد. علاوه بر این امریکا متعهد شده در این مدت از هر نوع جابجایی نیرو خودداری کند. در این مدت مذاکرات بر اساس طرح ۱۰ ماده ای ایران که در متن بیانیه شورای عالی امنیت ملی به جزئیات آن اشاره شده، برگزار خواهد شد. در صورت عدم توافق، جنگ مجددا از سر گرفته می شود.

SCOOP: A Phoenix police sergeant was armed and masked while off-duty at a student led anti-ICE protest. According to the report we’ve obtained, Dusten Mullen’s goal was to let teens assault him and “get all these kids in jail.”

I guess I'll have to blog about this tomorrow, but "LOL, Trump TACO'ed out" is decidedly not the right reaction as compared to "that kind of brinkmanship is really fucking dangerous".

It appears Trump just agreed to give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz, a history-changing win for Iran.
The level of incompetence is both stunning and heartbreaking.

@PlantChaotic Oh interesting! Iranians are supposed to let shit from 50 years ago lie, but America gets to attack, with the excuse of "They've been yelling at us for 47 years, just because we couped their democratically elected government, which, to be clear, they should get the fuck over!"
English
@6lennybravo @Lena_Hanmark @TheWapplehouse @mrburgerboy That was 50 years ago myguy.
The funny thing about time is that it changes perspectives. If you think the Iranian people today hold the same anti west sentiments circa 1970’s then you’re kinda obtuse.
English
Iran assures the American people they hold no hostility towards us while Trump talks about destroying civilizations. If you removed the names involved every single person on earth, regardless of political affiliation, instantly knows who the proudly evil ones are.
