I'm not crowing TACO because we should all be glad that Trump's backing down after painting himself into a corner. If he needs to make up stories about "double-sided" ceasefires, fine, let him. (By definition, all ceasefires are "double-sided" or they're not a ceasefire). /1

A sincere word of Thanks and Respect to Pakistani leaders for giving Donald Trump an offramp in this dangerous war of choice. You are appreciated.

God willing, look who's going to beat Trump to the @NobelPeaceOslo @NobelPrize. 👇🏼

It is sad day in America when regular death threats like this are normalized.

For the love of Goddess, @TheDemocrats, listen to @Timodc. Jump into battle! @RepJeffries @SenSchumer

Everyone except the Trumpsters who profited from the insider trading.

We have already killed at least 1,701 civilians, including at least 254 children, in this illegal war. It must stop.

Even if this ceasefire holds, the war has already caused thousands of deaths and massive destruction without resolving any of the fundamental differences between the U.S. and #Iran or Iran and #Israel. It should never have been started.

Deeply reported story by @maggieNYT and @jonathanvswan about an extraordinary pitch/presentation Netanyahu made to convince Trump to go to war with Iran, including catastrophically wrong Israeli assumptions about how easy it would be to win.

so bombing the synagogue was israel's idea

@oren_haz Fight your own damn wars.

Trump instantly went from hero to zero

Israel is a notorious breaker of ceasefires. It’s broken the Lebanon one thousands of times and killed nearly 700 in Gaza since 10/25. What will the US do to ensure it does not sabotage this ceasefire?

BREAKING— Trump got a “deal.” For the low cost of… —13 U.S. lives, hundreds wounded —Thousands of dead Iranians —Soaring gas prices —Damage to NATO —Decimation of U.S. influence —And threats of genocide Iran might reopen the Strait… which was already open before the war.

This.

This statement changes nothing. The President has threatened a genocide against the Iranian people, and is continuing to leverage that threat. He has launched a massive war of enormous risk and of catastrophic consequence without reason, rationale, nor Congressional authorization - which is as clear a violation of the Constitution as any. Each day this goes on, the risk and criminality of these actions escalate for our nation and the world. Moreover, this administration’s self enrichment, insider trading, and pure corruption off this chaos - from crypto currencies to predictive trading markets to bribe “settlements” - has placed the Trump administration’s pursuit of personal wealth squarely against the wellbeing of our nation and its people. All of these incidents, and plenty more, have clearly driven our country past the threshold for impeachment or invocation of the 25th amendment. We cannot risk the world nor the wellbeing of our nation any longer. None of these considerations should be partisan, but shared in good faith by Americans of all backgrounds who care for the safety and stability of the United States. Whether by his Cabinet or Congress, the President must be removed from office. We are playing with the brink.

@marceelias @PiperK has there ever been a more pathetic ass-kisser than Todd Blanche? Get a room, Todd!

🚨BREAKING: In his first press conference as acting attorney general, Todd Blanche said Tuesday that President Donald Trump has a “right” and “duty” to order the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate his political enemies. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/ac…

Apart from the fact that we seem to have been saved from madness and disaster, it’s a big hats off this evening to #Pakistan.
