ABC’s Jay O’Brien is reporting that republicans in Congress were briefed ahead of the strikes, but that democrats were not briefed until after the attack was underway.

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

When the US government brutalizes people, we're all complicit if we don't speak out & fight back. And that's exactly what's happening across this country. #ICE #secretpolice & cosplaying Nazis are terrorizing folks in our name. Call Congress 202-224-3121 This was in Santa Ana, CA this morning.

This is your daily reminder that Republicans are planning to gut Medicaid, Medicare and SNAP to hand tax breaks to billionaires. Don’t get distracted. Help me spread the word.

Sen Mike Lee & the silence from Republicans made it clear: decency is in the rearview mirror. After he mocked a political assassination, Ed Shelleby, a senior staffer to Sen Tina Smith, wrote to Lee’s top staffers. @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com read it on-air, and honestly everyone should hear it.

Dear Gov Kehoe, Judging the events of yesterday, perhaps when you next call out the Guard, you should do so to protect the defenders of Democracy. Seems the problems came from the MAGA side. You are on the wrong side of history.

OMG, y’all. ROTFL🤣 It looks like Trump had crowd-size issues again. What a fantastic way to close #ObamaDay Please pass it on so others can see what an epic failure he is. #NoKings

Looking back on the protests today made me think, MAGA never protested Biden because he wasn’t stealing their rights. Trump is gutting lives, freedoms, futures. We’re in the streets because we’re being crushed, erased & we're pissed off! MAGA rallies around a man. We rally around values

Donald Trump is wasting over $45 million dollars on a military birthday parade on June 14th while he sends troops to combat free speech on US soil. We asked vets how they feel about it. 👇 🇺🇸
