Journalist Spencer Ackerman: "A whole civilization will die tonight" is the most vile thing a US president has ever said [View all]

“A whole civilization will die tonight” is the most vile thing a US president has ever said, certainly during the post-1945 era when they’ve had the power to kill civilizations with the dropping of a bomb. I’m staring into the darkness. May this not be one of the most fateful days in human history.

From Bluesky. His account there is https://bsky.app/profile/attackerman.bsky.social . I've posted the permalink for this Bluesky post as the first line in this OP, but the message isn't showing up because of his account settings. I'm leaving the link in case he changes those settings.
