For years, Israel was using 2,000lb American bombs to kill Gazan refugees in tents. Both the Biden and Trump administrations permitted it.
A precedent was set.
Now it appears the US is doing the same in Iran.
A 2000lb bomb was dropped on a family house in Qeshm, killing a taxi driver (the father), the mother, and a 2-year-old, according to @nytimes.
Yes, a taxi driver. And a toddler. And his mother.
"The Times found no indication of a military site near the family’s home or any reports of military casualties from the strike."

Watch this absolutely incredible complete collapse and rollover of this massive iceberg near Ilulissat, Greenland, on July 25, 2026.
This sucker rolls over and breaks apart over a period of a few minutes. The sheer size and scope is so amazing!

Hats off to doctoral student and podcaster Zhong Shu in Beijing, China, who did this fascinating and smart interview with Christopher Nolan about THE ODYSSEY yesterday, originally posted to Bilibili.
A great listen/watch.
When I offered my amendment to kill this slush fund, Republicans said we should accept Trump's word that it was dead. We knew they were wrong. This is why.
Even in the middle of an illegal war, with prices rising, Trump wants to send your tax dollars to criminals & save his sweetheart tax deal.
Gaza is now witnessing massive, simultaneous evacuation orders across different areas, issued by the Israeli occupation army at an unprecedented pace.
We have not witnessed evacuations like these since the beginning of the genocide. We are now living through the horrors of Judgment Day.
This entire story is Trump's presidency in a nutshell: the DOJ brings totally baseless charges against an ordinary citizen in order to satisfy Trump's narcissistic delusions, and then, after having wreaked havoc on the guy's life, says "Never mind." Utterly pathetic.

I understand Max Miller's ex-wife has accused him of pouring boiling water on her, holding a gun to her head, beating her, and breaking their 2-year-old daughter's collarbone
On the same day his ex-wife filed a restraining order, the accused domestic abuser is amplifying the McCarthyite ravings of Zionist predator Laura Groomer to imply I'm the criminal for reporting from Iran
The irony is impossible to overstate
