#Trump pulls back on #Iran threats for 2 weeks, subject to Iran agreeing to terms
Trump says that includes an array of #bridges, #PowerPlants & other #civilian targets — subject to Iran being ready for a 2 week ceasefire & to reopen the #StraitOfHormuz.
Tucker Carlson’s big break with #Trump
21 months ago, #TuckerCarlson told the 2024 Republican National Convention that Donald Trump’s survival of an assassination attempt amounted to “divine intervention” — that God had chosen to save Trump because he had a plan for him to lead the country.…
Today, Carlson is offering an almost polar-opposite argument about Trump. He seemed to intimate during his show Monday that Trump might be the #antichrist.

“We have heard with deep sorrow the words coming from Donald Trump warning that an entire civilization—the population of Iran—could face total destruction. These threats are truly unacceptable. The idea that millions of innocent men, women, and children could be condemned to death under the pretext of national security is an affront to human dignity and a blasphemy against the Creator of life."

Iranian envoy says Tehran will not “stand idle’ if Trump follows through on #WarCrime threats
Amir-Saeid Iravani, Tehran’s representative at the #UN, said that Trump’s threats earlier Tuesday that a “whole civilization will die” if Iran does not make a deal “constitute incitement to #WarCrimes & potentially #genocide.”

God bless Rep Ted Lieu. He's saying it because it's the truth and it's the right thing to say.
But he's also playing on their fears effectively: they know they're going down at this point. They are frantically trying to deny it and shift blame and distract, but they know. Even the brain dead ICE agents know for the most part-- we can see it in their behavior.
Enough pressure from us and our electeds will work.

As #Trump🚨renews his threats to bomb “the entire C” of Iran, he's using religious terms to justify the costly, unpopular #IranWar that's killed 1000s of ppl, claiming that “God wants to see ppl taken care of.”

"Why are there almost no Republican scientists? It’s not a mystery. GOP political orthodoxy includes positions that are at odds with the scientific consensus on multiple issues, ranging from the validity of the theory of evolution, to the reality of climate change, to the efficacy and safety of vaccines. In each case the scientific consensus is solidly grounded in evidence."

#Trump warns a 'whole civilization will die tonight' if a deal with #Iran isn't reached
Trump issued the stark threat Tuesday, about 12 hours ahead of his deadline for Iran to agree to a deal that includes reopening the #StraitOfHormuz or face punishing strikes.
Trump wrote on his social media site: “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.”

The move frees a trial judge to act on the #Trump admin’s pending request to dismiss Bannon’s conviction & indictment “in the interests of justice” [rewriting history].
The dismissal would be largely symbolic. #SteveBannon served a 4-month prison term after a #jury #convicted him of #contempt of #Congress in 2022. A federal appeals court in Washington upheld the conviction.
#SCOTUS #law #SeparationOfPowers #LegislativeBranch #oversight #ChecksAndBalances #SubpoenaPower
The #DOJ brought the case against Bannon during Democrat Joe Biden’s presidency, but it changed course after #Trump took office again last year.
#SteveBannon had initially argued that his testimony was protected by Trump’s claim of #ExecutivePrivilege. But the #House panel & the DOJ contended such a claim was dubious because Trump had fired Bannon…in 2017 & he was thus a private citizen when consulting with Trump in the run-up to the #Jan6 #insurrection.
The real reason #Trump wanted to be President.

I hate the Atlantic (scroll by on principle) but this is a *story*
'fellow academics and foreign diplomats marvel at the doyen of Hungarian foreign policy who doesn’t speak Hungarian. But Pappin’s value is clear, and the government can hardly believe its luck—a flesh-and-blood member of the MAGA intelligentsia on its payroll. That’s part of the reason the stakes are so high in Hungary this election season, high enough that Vance will appear alongside Orbán during the final stretch of the campaign this week'

"We are witnessing a profound shift in the way power is exercised and performative violence is consumed. On one of the holiest days of the Christian calendar—Easter—the discourse was not one of resurrection and hope, but of 'war crimes' and 'hell.'”

#Trump proposes to cut 9,400+ #TSA workers, $1.5+ billion from #budget
The White House is proposing to cut more than 9,400 workers & just over $1.5 billion from the 60,000-employee Transportation Security Administration that handles #airport security operations, according to budget documents.
The details were part of a budget document for the #DHS, which oversees TSA, that is part of the White House budget proposal for the next fiscal year.
The White House posted - then deleted - a video from Trump's Easter luncheon, where the US President made inflammatory and false statements against several figures. Except it was downloaded by a journalist who posted it online. In the hour-long clip, Trump mocked French President Emmanuel Macron's marriage and imitated him, called himself a 'king' and was compared to Jesus Christ. Vedika Bahl explains in Truth or Fake.

The #Trump admin Monday will terminate multiple #CivilRights #settlements aimed at ensuring #transgender #students’ rights to #equal opportunity to an #education, forcing school ofcls to choose whether to comply with the govt’s interpretation of federal anti-#discrimination laws or to abide by conflicting state statutes.
The terminations…are an escalation of the admin’s efforts to enforce Trump’s #ExecutiveOrder that the govt recognize only a person’s sex assigned at birth.
#Trump Administration to Pull Out of #CivilRights #Settlements Backing #Trans Students
The #Education Department said there was no precedent for the federal government terminating settlements stemming from civil rights investigations into #schools.
“We have a plan, because of the power of our military, where every #bridge in Iran will be decimated by 12 o’clock tomorrow night,” #Trump said during his Monday news conference.
#PowerPlants in #Iran, he continued would be “burning, exploding & never to be used again.”
Trump refused to say whether any #civilian targets would be off limits in the #US response.

#Trump says he’s “not at all” concerned about committing #WarCrimes as he continues to threaten destruction of Iran’s #bridges & #PowerPlants if they don’t meet a Tuesday-evening deadline to reopen the #StraitOfHormuz.
“I hope I don’t have to do it,” Trump added.

#UN Secretary-General #AntonioGuterres warned the #US that attacking #civilian #infrastructure is banned under #InternationalLaw, his spox said Monday.
“Even if specific civilian infrastructure were to qualify as a military objective,” spox Stephane Dujarric said, an attack would still be prohibited if it risks “excessive incidental civilian harm.”
A court would need to decide whether such attacks were #WarCrimes, he said.

Prosecutors did not watch video of the nonfatal shooting until weeks after charging the wounded man, an official said.
Almost immediately after an #immigration agent shot & wounded a #Venezuelan #immigrant in Minneapolis this winter, the #Trump admin cast the injured man as an attempted murderer & the agent as the victim of a brutal beating.

#Iran state-run IRNA news agency said #Tehran rejected the latest #ceasefire proposal & wants a permanent end to the #war. The agency said it has conveyed its response to the #US through #Pakistan, a key mediator. “We only accept an end of the war with guarantees that we won’t be attacked again,” Mojtaba Ferdousi Pour, head of the Iranian diplomatic mission in Cairo, told AP Monday.

Remember the cyberattacks on the U.S. government in the early 2020s? The Biden admin asked tech companies to help and got some “free” upgrades.
The Trump admin is doing similarly with AI. But our reporting shows there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

#Trump, taking questions from reporters during the annual #Easter Egg Rollevent at the White House, reiterated his threats against #Iran, saying the #US was “obliterating the country” because its leadership would not capitulate.
But he also asserted that Americans were dealing with a third wave of leadership that “is not as radicalized.”
