Ossoff’s statement is 1000x stronger than Schumer-Jeffries. This is a moderate Jewish Senator from a Trump state. The split isn’t moderate vs progressive, but leading vs poll-reacting

Sen. Ossoff Statement on Iran
Atlanta, Ga. - U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff today released the following statement.
"Eight months ago, Donald Trump lied to the country when he claimed U.S. air strikes had 'obliterated' Iran's nuclear program.
"Now Trump says he's taken America to war for regime change in Iran.
"Trump has launched this regime change war and put American forces at risk without presenting evidence of an imminent threat, without clear objectives, without having exhausted diplomacy, without a plan for the aftermath, and without the consent of Congress.
"I oppose yet another regime change war-of-choice in the Middle East. Congress must convene immediately and pass a War Powers Resolution to assert our Constitutional authority over war and peace.
"The President has presented no evidence that Iran or its nuclear program — which he falsely claimed to have 'obliterated' — pose an imminent threat to the United States, or that diplomacy was exhausted. Iran's support for terrorism and uranium enrichment have long destabilized the region. But sending American forces into harm's way should only ever be a last resort.
"I pray for the safety of U.S. forces who have been ordered into battle and commend their extraordinary professionalism."

The reason The Terror is such a remarkable piece of not just television but also of both storytelling and art is because it was sensitively yet radically adapted by David Kajganich, who treated it (and still treats it) as a real labour of love.

Although I'm not really fan of the original anime, I love how the One Piece flag is showing up at protests. It's both light hearted and meaningful, like the way people reclaimed frogs for the left by wearing those inflatable costumes

Time and again, the story of the successful resistance to Trump’s authoritarianism is in the strength and courage of individuals, often at great personal risk, set against marked cowardice by institutions and elected officials in positions of actual power.

I'm very concerned that this regime will use their war with Iran to claim "national security" reasons (again) to target US Muslim residents and citizens and try to take away their rights. I hope I'm wrong

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

FIFA has officially issued President Trump a yellow card. If he assassinates another world leader, it’ll become an automatic red card and he won’t be eligible for another FIFA Peace Prize for 4 years.

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

Six accounts on Polymarket made around $1 million in profit by betting on the US to strike Iran by Feb. 28, according to analytics firm Bubblemaps SA. The accounts were all freshly created in February and had only ever placed bets on when US strikes might occur. Some of their shares were purchased, in some cases at roughly a dime apiece, hours before the first explosions were reported in Tehran.

Have been thinking about continuing relevance of Dada artist George Grosz's political critiques. His scathing 1926 painting "Eclipse of the Sun" portrays alliance between feckless political & military leaders and capitalist financiers. Grosz, branded "degenerate" by the Nazis, fled to the US in 1933

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:

The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same...

- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

From Hunter S. Thompson’s ESPN page 2 column one week after 9/11.

We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time."
Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed.
That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.

Yep. Trump hated Obama's nuke inspection deal with lran. He's had a personal dislike of Iran from the start. Also, he has all these radical Evangelicals in his administration (eg Hegseth). Israel is likely using the US, but this regime has its own reasons for starting this war

Getting twitchy reading about regime change takes. Regime change is basically impossible without committing ground forces, which are not in the area. You cannot take this admin at its word, even if they are telling themselves things.

This is probably either a really good or really bad time to point out that this classic Roy Lichtenstein Pop art painting from 1962, showing a fighter pilot shooting down a military jet, is in the collection of the Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art www.lichtensteincatalogue.org/catalogue/en...

Painting that looks like a comic book panel showing a fighter pilot in a cockpit shooting down a plane, with text: That was their mistake - because it gave me more targets than I could shoot at" and "No. 4! One more to make ace!"
