I was briefed on the intelligence last week. Iran posed no imminent threat of attack to the United States. Iran was not close to building a deliverable nuclear weapon. The negotiations Israel scuttled with their strikes held the potential for success.

I’ll be handing out these flags at today’s #NoKings protest because I believe in the power of our people. Our history is complicated, but when we stand up for democracy with care and courage, we can make it better. That’s the true American spirit I’m proud to carry here in #pdx. I hope you join! 🌈🇺🇲❤️
