Amwaj Media editor Mohammad Ali Shabani, who has been featured on CNN, is reporting Iran was given advance notice. amwaj.media/en/media-mon...

I’m not so much concerned about threats to our troops (and our troops are always in front of my thoughts) because I trust in their training, having done the job myself. My biggest fear is what Iran can do to oil markets if they pause exports and make threats to shipping in Strait of Hormuz.

BREAKING: Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization says it will not halt its nuclear program following the U.S. attack, calling the strikes a “blatant violation of international law.”

Friends, I am asking for your help to save Sayeed Nasser, an Afghan interpreter for U.S. troops who has been detained by ICE and will be deported if we don't get him released. The Taliban have already killed members of his family. It is gravely unjust to abandon him. I've laid out the info below.

Reuters now reporting that TULSI GABBARD has REVERSED her comment on IRANS nuclear weapon capability to be in line with TRUMP. Thats it all. It’s all just made up. NO FACTS, NO sense, NO REASON, just bullshit. We could go to war AGAIN over BULLSHIT

CBS: “The U.S. reached out to Iran diplomatically Saturday to say the strikes are all the U.S. plans and that regime change efforts are not planned, the sources said.” www.cbsnews.com/news/u-s-lau...

Trump announces on social media that the US has bombed Iran

This sounds oddly....."familiar" 🤔

Israel ‘s military said Saturday it struck an Iranian nuclear research facility overnight and killed three senior Iranian commanders in targeted attacks, while emphasizing it was preparing for the possibility of a lengthy war. Updates: www.stripes.com/theaters/mid...

A question on Twitter: "How do undocumented workers pay taxes if they aren't documented? How does the IRS collect taxes from someone with no Social Security number? Please educate me." This answer was extremely well worded:

I looked this up, and yes, it is real. I've included an article about it in the comments. Please share for those who may need it. Thank you!

CATO: “New nonpublic data from ICE indicates the government is primarily detaining individuals with no criminal convictions of any kind… 93% had no violent convictions… 65% no criminal record at all…” @MarshaBlackburn www.cato.org/blog/65-peop...

And MSM will just report on this like it’s not the absolute obvious, lazy, stupid, lie that it actually is.

He didn’t like the answers it was giving, so he’s starting over.

MAGA Republicans could’ve passed “No Tax on Tips” five months ago as a standalone bill. Instead, they are messing around with the language and adding a bunch of junk to pass along with it.

The Los Angeles Dodgers announced today that the organization will donate $1 million to immigrant families impacted by recent raids.

BREAKING: Mahmoud Khalil has officially been released from ICE custody after more than 90 days in a detention center, per the AP.

holy shit. Cuomo halted an investigation into the Weinstein case after a donation from Weinstein’s former lawyer’s firm to his reelection campaign… guys, this was in 2018 AFTER the Weinstein exposés (multiple) had been published & the #metoo movement was ascendant

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

Pay attention to recalls

The No Kings movement needs to be mobilized to become the Democratic Tea Party. Leaders like Clyburn, and many others, need to go.

Folks the press isn't going to come save you. The FBI isn't going to come save you. The military isn't going to come save you. We can only save each other. Vote Democrats back into power. www.snopes.com/fact-check/u...

BREAKING:   NEW YORK (AP) - Judge says he will order Columbia University protester Mahmoud Khalil released from immigration detention.

If nothing else about morality and law and basic human decency gets to them, you'd think at least some ICE agents would grasp they're being ordered to act in a way deliberately calculated to get one of them killed because that's what the administration wants.

"Sergio Gor" (Sergey Gorokhovsky) rapidly ascended in Republican politics over the years for good reason: He delivered massive amounts of cash through "donation fundraising." Jesse Benton, his co-worker from Sen. Paul's office, went to prison for laundering $100,000 from Russia.
