Trump just bombed Iran without Congressional Approval. This is Bullshit. Trump listened to the Zionists. www.youtube.com/live/_9x4mR_...

US Military should sooner turn their arms on the Israelis who have decided they control when and how many Americans to send to slaughter.

This goes for 90% of the US Federal Government. Israel is the single greatest threat our nation faces. It must be completely removed or we will never recover.

This orange pos let the Israelis drag America into another forever war. For NOTHING. I’m so tired of the American People doing nothing to stop this rogue regime and their Israeli handlers!

You don't need permission from a centralized committee or the government to protest, just do it, organize, show up, resist. 10 protestors or 1 million protestors, it doesn't matter as long as you keep moving. Every organization, protest group, individual matters. Be the resistance you need. #3E

I will fight to the death for the freedom granted me by the US Constitution to which I am subject. If I am bound by its laws, I am a recipient of its benefits. As are all who find themselves upon this land for which it was written.

A truly amazing and inspiring people.

It is genuinely among the most dangerous acts of this administration that they keep attacking Fed independence. What’s worse is Lutnick is lying to do it. He knows that there’s a 20% tariff on all Chinese goods 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘭𝘶𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘭𝘢𝘱𝘵𝘰𝘱𝘴, where China is by far the dominant supplier.

Call to action: US National Protest July 4th! WASHINGTON DC AND EVERY STATE CAPITOL, CITY HALL, AND TOWN HALL. #3E #NoKings #HandsOff #Indivisible #FiftyFiftyOne #StopICE #NoKingsProtest

“Now is not the time to talk about…” If you thought I was gonna say ‘gun control’ bc that’s how Republicans shut down talk, you would be wrong. I want to talk about the failing DNC and how our party needs a massive revamp. But for some, “now” is never the right time.

This is why Hakeem Jeffries calls Iran a “sworn enemy”, and he says “Israel has a right to defend itself” from “Iranian aggression” (even though Israel ATTACKED THEM FIRST). He’s a bought and paid for hack.

😂

Reposting because this is important. As usual, the US Empire has fabricated lies to “liberate a country” of its natural resources.

Personally Idgaf if Iran has a nuclear weapon. So many countries have them now, several of which harbor ill will against America, and nothing comes of it. It’s a symbolic weapon of deterrence and any sovereign nation that can safely produce one should. There are WAY bigger threats than nukes.

Congress has the sole power to declare war – full stop. The idea that the US would potentially deploy a bunker buster bomb in Iran w/out Congressional approval not only flies in the face of our Constitution, it would also rope us into another forever war that Americans do not want.

Don’t look away. Since the start of the Israel-Iran war 7 days ago, over 400 Palestinians in Gaza have been killed, many shot while seeking food. It's unconscionable that Netanyahu has not allowed international orgs to resume food delivery. The weaponization of food must end.

So we all need to think about what we want. 1st eliminate the Patriot Act. 2nd eliminate Citizens United 3rd make lobbying illegal it is bribery. 4th quit politicians pay for life.

Zohran Mamdani is standing up to the oligarchy and fighting to make one of America’s most expensive cities affordable for the working class. If you’re a New York City voter, I urge you to rank him #1 on your ballot by next Tuesday. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social

“Things aren’t just getting worse. They’re getting worse faster,” says @hausfath.bsky.social. Kinda seems like a bad time for the US to scrap all its clean energy policy & double down on fossil fuels.

For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from:  -Sinking poll numbers -A devastating (and unpopular) budget bill -Harmful trade wars  -Unleashing the military on American soil -Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism We must remain on high alert. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]

Netanyahu & Trump want REGIME CHANGE in Iran. "they can't have a nukes" is pure bullshit being used as a justification. They don't have 1, they weren't making 1. We can't let them pretend that the ILLEGAL & OFFENSIVE war they're waging on Iran is about "preventing them from getting nukes", it's not.

The GOP wants to kill us, arrest us, stack our bodies in foreign gulags and steal every last cent from us. As soon as Americans awaken from their naive stupor and realize this basic truth the sooner we can start to recover and start jailing these GOP traitors.
