The fact that the Pope saying some basic Christian stuff is considered a political attack against Trump and MAGA clearly shows the anti-Christian nature of the regime.

This seems to have gotten memory holed in discussions of Trump's blockade of Iran's blockade. The "peace" deal on the table was that Iran and Trump enter a joint toll booth venture, payable in Trump crypto. And WHY that didn't happen is the underlying question.
This morning, I asked President Trump if he’s okay with the Iranians charging a toll for all ships that go through the Strait of Hormuz, he told me there may be a Joint US-Iran venture to charge tolls:

“We’re thinking of doing it as a joint venture. It’s a way of securing it — also securing it from lots of other people.”

I was working on a spec pilot but yesterday I put it down and pivoted to a new idea. So I wanted to do this week’s #Scriptsky #Screenwriting thread on WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU’RE UNSURE HOW TO PROCEED WITH AN IDEA. i.e. I used to think this was a great idea but now I’m worried it might be dog shit! 🧵1

23 people could stop this genocidal war criminal. That’s it. 23. 20 Republican senators and 3 republican reps in the house and he’d be out of politics forever. But they won’t. They’re addicted to power. A drug so strong they’d rather see a civilization die than give it up.

Trump’s new budget adds an extra $500 billion to fund wars abroad — about $3,700 more for every household in America — while cutting health, jobs, housing, and education. Put simply, it takes more of your money for foreign wars, while making life in America even more unaffordable.

the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.

Hard to overstate how big a loss Rumeysa Ozturk’s case is for the Trump admin. Immigration court is an extension of the executive. It’s very hard for them to lose there. Here she is being arrested by men in plainclothes. Over an op-ed. Still disturbs me.
