They're also screaming "Iran has weapons of mass destruction!" Same bullshit, false reason that was given to get us into the Iraq War.

For those unconditionally cheering the attacks on Iran, remember that our early strikes in Afghanistan and Iraq were “successful”. But we ended up getting dragged into costly wars that created more terrorists than we killed. The American people haven’t forgotten that.

They can find Trumpers. They can find sign language interpreters. But apparently they can't find both in one person.

Moulton: I have heard that a lot of officers are considering resigning their commissions because they question whether this is constitutional—whether they’re violating their oath to protect and defend the Constitution, not the president, by carrying out these orders. These are active discussions

Cue gaslighting Republicans to accuse Jerome Powell of being part of the Deep State and, also being anti-semitic. Might as well throw that in, too. 🙄

Can someone please ask Karoline Leavitt why the Director of White House Personnel refuses to say what country he is from and refuses to complete paperwork for a background check? Can you also ask if “Sergio Gor” is the name on his birth certificate. Seems kinda important.

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

To my understanding, Trump cannot unilaterally bring the United States into the Israel-Iran War without Congressional approval. Only Congress can declare war.

@bradlander.bsky.social: Trump "is trying to destroy our empathy. That's what authoritarians do... We've got that Statue of Liberty out in the harbor saying, send me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses.... That's what New York City is built on. That's why I love it. And he hates it."

Melissa Hortman was only 55 years old. She had a lot more to do. It is so bitter and so sad that her life was taken - assassinated for fighting for what she believed in. It will now be up to us to carry on these fights.

Kristi Noem doesn't need your prayers. She's got the super duper healthcare coverage that wealthy Americans hoard for themselves. To be clear, the Americans who don't have healthcare don't need your prayers either. They need universal healthcare.

It’s no coincidence that there’s always a major catastrophe or crisis in the Middle East when the orange felon is in power which is even more proof that crime slumlord Jared Kushner’s fake Middle East peace mission was nothing more than a scheme to earn his $2B Saudi paycheck.

Moulton: It turns out the U.S. Army is not great at doing Soviet-style or North Korean-style parades, because that’s not what people sign up to do… Imagine how much veteran housing you could build for $40 million. You could help a lot of vets with that kind of money. And this parade helped nobody.
