Trump Begs Off Pledge to Genocide 90 Million Trump says that Iran has presented a 'workable' deal, calling it a 'double sided ceasefire' for two weeks.

NEW — Iran had already presented a 10-point plan.

Then Trump wakes up today and threatens to blow up Iran's "whole civilization" if they don't bend.

And then, just an hour before his deadline, he announces a ceasefire, citing Iran's "workable" 10-point plan.

This Madman Is Pulling Us to the Brink of Armageddon Trump’s genocidal threat against Iran is one of the most vile and dangerous things an American president has ever done.

Here's what @joanwalsh.bsky.social wrote as we all wait to see genocide being carried out in our name

I feel like I have nothing to write. "Genocide is illegal and Trump must be tried for war crimes" feels, somehow, *under*whelming in this moment.

The man who watches Trump all day, every day Aaron Rupar spends up to 80 hours a week following the US president, from meandering speeches to impromptu press conferences. He says it’s ‘pretty bleak’

I talked to The Times for a little profile of yours truly. Check it out:

Remember all this nonsense about the supposed inferiority of “third world” immigration? They really believed that and applied their theory to international relations and it failed. Racism makes you stupid.

Constitutional lawyer here. I don't think it would violate the Constitution for the VP/Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, but the intended constitutional remedy for this behavior is impeachment & removal. The fact that that remedy is politically impossible is a scandal and a crisis.

100 percent tariff on... medicine?

I'm telling you, one of the best arguments that Republicans are planning to steal the election is that they're actively trying to lose it.

So much this. Also, the tech bro mafia doesn't really like reading. They don't *appreciate* reading. So just because *they* can't spot the difference between good writing and bad writing, they think most people can't either.

A month ago, Brad Lander put a great video calling for the expansion of the Supreme Court. I (impertinently) responded “This but 29.”

Today at 1:00, I’m hoping on Lander’s substack live to talk about court expansion, 13, 29, and all the reforms in between. Should be fun.

The Supreme Court Absolutely Shredded Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Case But this also begs the question: why is this facially unconstitutional case before the court in the first place?

At the risk of being naïve. At the risk of getting egg on my face come June... I think Trump got shredded in the birthright citizenship case. And I think the Court only took the case TO shred him, and look reasonable by comparison.
