Donald Trump, a weak and dangerously reckless president, has put the United States on a path to a war in the Middle East that the country does not want, the law does not allow, and our security does not demand.

Democrats cannot complain about Trump’s authoritarianism while ignoring their own constitutional responsibility regarding taking the country to war. Democrats must support Sen. Kaine’s War Powers Resolution. The U.S. must not get involved in Netanyahu’s war.

The tracker is updated every few days even if not posted. There are too many now to highlight really. But this local story broke my heart. Here is Emerson Colindres, a soccer-loving 19 year old who recently graduated from High School. He grew up in Cincinnati/1 www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2...

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE MUST STAND FIRM. We must not be dragged into Netanyahu’s illegal war against Iran.

A powerful message to opposition leaders, dissidents, cooperators, operatives and allies in Iran, Russia, and around the globe. After you are done risking your life to help us, we will sell you out and screw you over. Because the current govt will use you and discard you.

The Minnesota assassin appears to be a hate-filled right winger. So can we stop walking on eggshells about MAGA's legitimization of political violence? Yes, Republicans have also been the target of inexcusable violence, but this isn't a "both sides" issue. 1/ A🧵on the danger.

With the tragic assassination of a Minnesota Democratic leader, I’m going to underline this point again.

For nearly 80 years, the Fulbright Program has been one of the crown jewels of American research and cultural exchange. Again I say, if you wanted to dramatically undermine American power and influence around the world, you would be hard pressed to do better than this admininstration.

My thoughts on what’s going on in Los Angeles:

Stephen Miller represents everything vile about this administration and drawing more attention to him will (a) make it harder for the administration to pretend this isn't creepy white nationalism in action and (b) likely make Trump jealous to the point he shitcans him like Elon. Win-win.

But all we do is win, win, win. Great job Merica

Every day, Trump’s focused on addressing problems that didn’t exist until he created them.

This would be absolutely hysterical if these weren't some of the most powerful people in the world. 🤦‍♀️ What a time to be alive...

Say what now?!

A long long time ago, in a far away galaxy... the US used to tax the rich

THIS!!

Um, 👀👀, duh.

Since Trump’s mouthpiece Karoline Leavitt just lied that it won’t increase the deficit, here’s Republican Sen. Ron Johnson saying “This will increase the deficit by $4 TRILLION” and “absolutely” cut Medicaid. They lie as easily as they breathe. Not that anyone is surprised.

Um, I'm gonna need to know which facility this is to be sure to never fly through there.

Do you ever think about how easy it is to be a white Republican? Like, do nothing. “Fight for the unborn” and then damn them to hell the second they emerge from the birth canal. No need to lift a finger to do anything else. Put on a cross and a fake smile. Easy peasy.

stock market soars on fake solution to manufactured crisis (which still results in widespread harm)

So many people have grown up to be the villains of our stories.

Wanna see something cool? At the Grammy's in 1976, Ella Fitzgerald and Mel Torme explained what jazz is. The result? The crowd losing its mind. 🔥

If I see masked men with no badges trying to abduct somebody, of course I am going to get in their way. That's called being a good samaritan. There is no reason for secret police in a democratic society and in the long run we need to rollback the normalization of these tactics in law enforcement.
