Shocking: Man Dies Waiting for Ambulance in Rural Town Nearest Hospital Closed After Budget Cuts www.dobblog.com/2025/06/man-...

submitted 1 day ago • 26 comments

Without Congressional approval or the support of the American people, Trump took unilateral action to bomb Iran — an aggressive first strike against a powerful adversary, made only to feed the ego of a man obsessed with holding power over people’s lives. I condemn him, and I condemn his illegal war.

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

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.

Donald Trump just bombed Iran without any authorization from Congress. Congress must immediately pass Rep. Massie's War Powers Resolution to block Trump from dragging the US into an unconstitutional war in the Middle East.

Don't take your eye off the ball! Trump's illegal Iran bombing isn't (just) about that country It's also an effort to extend his autocratic ambitions here at home Fortunately there are things we can do about that as I explain @contrariannews.org contrarian.substack.com/p/trumps-nat...

A single person — Donald Trump — has released the dogs of war and done it without the consent of Congress, our allies, or even a clear explanation to the American people. Anyone who has doubted Trump’s intention to replace our democracy with a dictatorship should now be fully disabused.

Israel's Prime Minister may think no one will notice what he's doing in Gaza while he bombs Iran. People face starvation. 55,000 killed. Aid workers and doctors turned away at the border. Shooting at innocent people desperate for food. The world sees you, Benjamin Netanyahu.

Mark Hortman was a selfless husband and a dedicated father. He always put his family above himself and everyone who knew him knew that he was Melissa’s rock. He was a great friend to Gwen and me, and we will miss him deeply. www.mprnews.org/story/2025/0...

After 9th Circuit win, Trump says he’ll deploy military “should State and Local Police be unable, for whatever reason, to get the job done.” And masked federal agents seize people off streets, and Congress is set to appropriate tens of billions for detention and deportation. The road to despotism.

Amol Sinha, a member of Mahmoud Khalil's legal team joined us following Khalil's release from ICE custody in Louisiana: "The government should not be the arbiter of who gets to speak and who doesn't. Because if it's happening to Mahmoud today, it could happen to any one of us tomorrow."

Six former CDC vaccine chairs are sounding the alarm—and we better listen. The U.S. is on the brink of losing access to life-saving immunizations. When science is attacked and trust is eroded, lives will be lost. This is not a drill. This is a national emergency.

Democrats cannot complain about Trump’s authoritarianism while ignoring their own constitutional responsibility regarding taking the country to war. Democrats must support Sen. Kaine’s War Powers Resolution. The U.S. must not get involved in Netanyahu’s war.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

The idea that we can "easily" overthrow the regime in Iran is a fantasy of people that have never served. Afghanistan is back in the hands of the Taliban after 20 years of slaughter. Iraq still isn't peaceful. Libya is a war zone that's been in civil war since we dropped bombs. History is screaming!

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.

Cities with sanctuary policies should stop letting the feds take advantage of their courthouses to make arrests of immigrants. That’s clear commandeering under the 10th amendment. The feds like it because prospective arrestees pass through the magnetometers. No requirement they land that hand.
