Hey @BBCNews - you seem not to have noticed the 500,000 people marching through London against the far-right, so I’m just making you aware, cheers then.

🇺🇸 NEW POLL: 75% of Americans say Pete Hegseth should be removed from office.
Retweet if you’re one of the 75%.

@implausibleblog @louisa_oeffling “So-called” or “self-proclaimed” Christians. We have to consistently identify and call out these charlatans and grifters.

Left: Christian faith leaders praying with President Trump
Right: Pope Leo on Palm Sunday, "Jesus does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, he rejects then, saying: Even though you make many prayers I will not listen, your hands are full of blood"

Putting the current leader’s name and image on everything is an authoritarian move, designed to make them seem more present, more powerful, more invincible than they are. It is a betrayal of American democracy, where power belongs to the people.

While Russian Duma members were getting guided tours of US government buildings and Trump was busy pressuring Ukraine to surrender, Russia helped Iran destroy an irreplaceable American $700,000,000 AWACS aircraft.

Better silence than more lies and propaganda? Third parties now have greater credibility than the administration.
Matthew Miller@matthewamiller
It has been 10 days since Hegseth and Caine last briefed on Iran. No CENTCOM briefing since 3/10, and no Pentagon daily press briefing at all. We learn more of what the U.S. military has been doing from bystander videos than DoD. Historic lack of transparency and accountability.

This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: “Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood” (Is 1:15).
English
Anyone else here old enough to remember the Vietnam-era “credibility gap” and its corrosive effects that persist even now?
Rishap Vats@VatsRishap
The fact that CENTCOM downplayed this hit and the Wall Street Journal reported the aircraft as only being “damaged” should tell you something about how credible American public pronouncements are becoming at this juncture of the conflict.

Bruce Springsteen is currently playing to a #NoKings crowd of over 200,000 people in Saint Paul Minnesota right now!
Trump is using government to hurt people who disagree. That is what kings do to scare others. We will not be scared. We will not be silent.

Vigeland: Mike Johnson terrified that if he moves an inch away from the president—who's absolutely out of control, his dementia rantings are insane—he's going to lose his job.
That means that everybody who is experiencing all these horrible incidents with their travel, that's because Mike Johnson's afraid to lose his job. And all those TSA agents that have to work without pay as ICE stands over their shoulder. That's Mike Johnson.

HOLY CRAP!
Look at Chicago right now. Chicago is really mad at the king wannabe.
NO KINGS!

So, Mr. Speaker, your position is that Schumer is a Svengali who somehow induced all 53 Senate Republicans to vote for his bill, or that they’re all stupid, or un-American, or lazy in their eagerness to recess, or all of the above?
Speaker Mike Johnson@SpeakerJohnson
Democrats have forced the second LONGEST shutdown in history to defund the police, reopen the border, and stop illegal immigration enforcement. House Republicans REFUSE to let Democrats jeopardize our country with their crazy policies. That’s why we're voting AGAIN to fully fund Homeland Security and pay ALL of our law enforcement officers. No games. No gimmicks. Just common sense.

Very good to see this from Senator Reed.
"If these reports are accurate, Secretary Hegseth’s decision to remove four decorated officers from a promotion list after having been selected by their peers for their merit and performance is not only outrageous, it would be illegal."
Ryan Goodman@rgoodlaw
Surely, surely the Chairs and Ranking Members of the Senate and House Armed Services Committees will take action here. What's reported here is a gross stain on America and damaging to the armed services. It also fits a pattern with SecDef Hegseth. Have we no shame.

@allenanalysis @RabbWilder MBS should demand that Trump refunds his bribe. Kushner, too.

Trump on Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince MBS today:
“He didn’t think he would be kissing my ass. He really didn’t. And now he has to be nice to me. He better be nice to me.”
This is how the President of the United States describes America’s most important Gulf ally.
The same Saudi Arabia that:
— Cut oil production by 6.7 million barrels
— Whose energy infrastructure Iran threatened to destroy
— Who the US needs to keep oil markets stable
— Who Trump is asking to join the Iran war
Diplomatic relationships are built over decades.
Trump just described the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia as someone kissing his body parts — on camera — while asking him for military cooperation.
France got an 8 out of 10. Japan got Pearl Harbor. Saudi Arabia got this.
The isolation of America is not just a policy failure.
It is a daily practice.

If Trump’s version is true, this would represent a catastrophic failure of our defensive systems. Trump always says the quiet parts out loud. It’s pretty hard to credit that a laundry room fire could take the Ford out of action for the two years repairs are estimated to take.
Anthony Scaramucci@Scaramucci
Trump just said Iran hit the USS Gerald R. Ford “from 17 angles” and the crew “had to run to save our lives.” His own Pentagon says it was a laundry room fire. A sitting president publicly contradicting his own DoD during an active war is extraordinary — regardless of which version is true.
