Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"

The world still weeps...now due to the resurgence of fascism in our nation... On this day in 1944 Anne Frank was arrested in Amsterdam by German Security Police following a tip-off from an informer who was never identified... Her entire family except her father would be dead in less than a year...

Rory says populist. But Count Binface just calls it practical.

Oh for the love of all that is holy...

Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"

The last measurable rainfall in West Sussex was 30 June with no prospect of rain anytime soon. Today it will be 31c. I think this is very worrying.

The headline that should be at the top of this story is in the main copy text. It is that Iran says this is, 'nothing but a new lie'. Wake up, BBC.

Maybe the BBC should report on what actually happens rather than the 'make believe BS,' that lives in this guys head. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Trump says new talks with Iran to begin on Monday

Tehran has not responded to the suggestion that new talks are imminent. Trump has previously said a negotiated end to the war is close, only for strikes to resume.

NEW FROM ME: A frenzy of cruel and unusual ICE flights over the last few days suggests the Trump admin is ratcheting up its ethnic cleansing campaign. And it may be increasingly desperate to find willing collaborators. My breakdown: gillianbrockell.com/frenzy-of-cr...

Frenzy of cruel and unusual ICE flights shows Trump’s ethnic cleansing campaign is escalating – again

Seven apparent ICE removal flights in the last few days – including third-country removals, prolonged shackling, and failed deportations – reveal an agency ratcheting up.

gillianbrockell.com

Three likely ICE removal flights on private jets have taken off within 25 minutes of another. Hard to know yet where they are headed, but these jets have all recently done third-country removals to Eswatini, Ghana, Poland, etc etc

Thread of updates on an unusually busy day in ICE flights. This Omni ICE flight just landed in Laos. Passengers have been shackled for 25+ hours. There is likely at least one more stop. 1/

Overnight this Omni ICE removal trip refueled in Anchorage and is now likely headed to its second refueling stop in Guam. It’ll be another 10 hours at least before it makes its first removal stop. The people onboard have been shackled for at least 14 hours so far.

The greatest global threat to both peace and a habitable planet is the government of the USA. It has been so for a long time, but Trump has nixed the deniability. We should stop treating it as an ally that has mysteriously gone astray and start treating it as a hazard to be avoided and contained.
