🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Just HOURS after Putin slammed the U.S. for bombing Iran, the Iranian Foreign Minister is now heading to Moscow for an emergency meeting. Trump didn’t just start a war - he may have united two of America’s greatest enemies. This is a global nightmare.

Gas is $3.50 a gallon, butter is $6 bucks a pound, eggs are $4 bucks a dozen, we’re at war with Iran, South African Nazis stole all our data, and ICE is throwing citizens in detention camps. But hey, at least those 3 trans kids can’t play volleyball anymore.

We were very happy to give this scoop to @marisakabas.bsky.social's The Handbasket because it is important to support independent journalists who are doing the hard work at this time. Giving this story to Marisa also guarantees it will be in The Washington Post verbatim exactly 48 hours later.

AS I SAID, TRUMP WOULD GET US INTO A WAR WITHOUT CONGRESSIONAL APPROVAL Trump was lying when he said that he hadn’t decided what to do. The ships were already moving. That fool thinks it’s over. Now America will know why a stupid man should not be president. #ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited 👇🏼

As someone who served in Iraq and saw up close the loss of blood and treasure over 20 years, I don’t want to be embroiled in another drawn out conflict, and neither do the American people. Read my full statement on Iran in the thread below:

Felon47 decided to bomb Iran's nuclear sites without a bi-partisan act of Congress. He briefed Republicans but not democrats. How do we run a country without the cooperation of both parties? 🤔 #wtpBLUE #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #VOTEBLUE2025

Donald Trump just unilaterally bombed Iran. A masked gang is terrorizing our streets. America has rapidly devolved into an authoritarian state. That's why, today, The Onion has purchased a full page ad in today's New York Times with a simple plea to Congress: Sit back and do absolutely nothing.

History ignored by Republicans again. Just because you can bomb Iran, doesn’t mean you should. NO Weapons of Mass Destruction found in Iraq; that lie plunged us into a 20+ year war. Trump just did it again in Iran, this time knowing Iran has no nuclear bomb #NoWar www.theguardian.com/world/2004/o...

People need to be getting pissed off about this one and voicing it. This is greed. Protected public lands are something to be preserved for current and future generations. Once they are gone there is no going back. Once they crack open the door for this more greed will kick in

Yeah, I’m sure what Mike has in mind is to build affordable housing at those scenic vistas on federal land he wants to open up for development. That’s how he’s selling it, but we all know that they have different plans.
