University of Michigan today. The most tipping-point image I've seen to exemplify our fascist descent. And the surrender was won with the weapon of false antisemitism charges against people protesting genocide--making administrations complicit in genocide. A moral nadir. This is how republics die.

!["Last week, you said you might annihilate Iran. That was the word you used.
Yeah, I would do that. It's possible.
You've made versions of that threat before. You've also called yourself the president of peace.
Yeah.
How can the president of peace be calling for the annihilation of an entire people?
Because by annihilating Iran, we've created peace in the world. With Iran, I don't think you could ever have peace.
Are you talking specifically about the government, the Islamic Republic regime? What about the innocent people?
They killed 75,000 people in the last number of months. Protesters, innocent [unintelligible], a lot of very good people. They killed 70, anywhere from 72 to 75,000. We all documented. They went on Brett Baier the other day and they lied about it. They said 3,000. Brett Bair said, “You got to be kidding, me!” No, they killed 75,000 people. It's unbelievable. It's a bloodbath. So we'll see. And the reason people don't rise up, because they're afraid of being killed. You know, they go out in the street and they end up killing 1,000 people, 2,000, sometimes less. They use snipers to go right through their head, and when—remember the women went, they had 500,000 women, and then they started getting hit by snipers right in the middle of their head? The women looked and they saw that, then they saw another one, and they ran like hell."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kd7pdhsemwqjfacvexf5mglg/bafkreia4jfpokod7wibzojq763nemk627nlu6ijx337d7um4zymvsy6lcu)
