I considered myself politically just left of moderate until we invaded Iraq in 2003. Then I moved to a red state, heard my neighbors claim Saddam Hussein was responsible for 9/11. Then came the Tea Party. I'm still me, unlabeled, but with wide open eyes.

The US invasion of Iraq began on this day 22 years ago. In the years since, the United States spent roughly $10 trillion on the so-called "war on terror." Can you imagine if we had instead invested those funds in climate, health care, housing, and education?

The Trump administration says it ignored a Saturday court order to turn around two planeloads of alleged Venezuelan gang members because the flights were over international waters and therefore the ruling didn't apply, two senior officials tell Axios.

What a smug prick! It should be like this everywhere Homan goes✊🏼

Go Sweden! 🇸🇪

Republicans are working hard to pretend Trump inherited a bad economy. He was handed an economy that analysts thought had no chance of recession and was expected to grow by 2.5% We will need lots of visuals like this. They are destroying a good economy
