[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

This is absolutely disgusting.

This bigoted garbage and antisemitism should be nowhere near our politics.

If you’re in TX-35, vote for @johnnygarciatx.

And the donors behind the Republican super PAC funding her should be exposed.

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

Concerned.

Trump says a "whole civilization of people" will "probably" die tonight. I don't even know how to characterize a post like this. 90+ million people in Iran under threat tonight. It's unspeakable.

[James Medlock @jdcmedlock]

He was so real for this.

[JaguarAnalytics @JaguarAnalytics]

Just curious. Does Congress need to approve anything before wiping out a civilization? Or, have we transitioned from 3 branches of government to 2?

[Jessica Riedl 🧀 🇺🇦 @JessicaBRiedl]

GOP lawmakers deciding whether to use their authority to rein in a president threatening mass genocide and war crimes - and thus risk a potential primary challenge.

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

He manages to make every occasion, no matter how potentially uplifting, into a cringe-inducing moment

[David French @DavidAFrench]

This is completely deranged rhetoric. If you heard this kind of ranting from a family member who possessed no power at all, you'd be worried about them. From the president, it's horrifying. This is obvious 25th Amendment territory, but people are so desensitized that they can't see it.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

This is genuinely one of the most disgusting statements I have ever seen issued by an American official.

It should not stop shocking us that the Republican Party openly embraces this. Fine should be censured & stripped of committees. To ignore this is to accept and normalize it.

[David French @DavidAFrench]

This is genuinely horrible. We are doing immense damage to ourselves.

[Jay Nordlinger @jaynordlinger]

If you don’t like a jobs report, fire the BLS commissioner. (That’ll show her successors!) Another day, sic the Justice Department on the Fed chairman — get a lapdog in his place. Where will it end, and when?

[Jay Nordlinger @jaynordlinger]

Yes. In a previous era, what Powell has said would have been relatively unremarkable. Today, it's like scaling Mount Everest while juggling.

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

And if you're someone who celebrates this - who thinks Renee Good should have been shot, who thinks Powell should be prosecuted, who thinks Trump isn't bonkers - ask yourself what unhappiness and resentment led you to become a person your parents and kids will be ashamed of.

[David French @DavidAFrench]

We've become so accustomed to cowardice and capitulation that quiet dignity and real courage shine all the brighter.

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

If you want an example of the kind of thing that would constitute an illegal order, here you go

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

First thing I thought of when I heard this news today: Shooting the unarmed and helpless survivors of naval attacks is something we’ve seen before, and we prosecuted our enemies for doing it. And now we’re doing it.
This wasn’t even combat, but it would be prohibited even then.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

Ryan Goodman, who is in fact an expert on the law of war, calls it a “textbook war crime” and notes precedent dating back to WWII for it being a war crime to kill survivors of a sunken boat.

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

He couldn't, even for one moment, just be a decent person and not make it about himself.

Lord have mercy and may her memory be eternal.

[Jay Nordlinger @jaynordlinger]

In my opinion, the most underplayed, under-discussed issue in our politics is violence -- the threat of violence, and its effect on the decisions our politicians make. I have noticed this for ten years. (People have quit Congress over it.)
