Imagine if Iran bombed Washington, killed the U.S. President, politicians, diplomats and top generals, what would you call it? Terrorists. The U.S. bombed Tehran, killed its head of state, politicians, diplomats and top generals. Why do you call it a "pre emptive strike"!

Nothing makes sense now that we know Iran had offered to permanently halt high-level uranium enrichment and restore IAEA inspections in exchange for sanctions being lifted. We just bombed the shit out of them for nothing and lifted the sanctions anyways. We look like idiots.

Rep. Vindman two months ago: “My family and I came to this country as a refugee fleeing Soviet Ukraine with just $800 in our pockets, and sadly, my story is no longer possible in Trump’s America. We are a country of immigrants and let me be clear: we can have secure borders without being cruel.”

" Do we want to bomb and fight our way to securing the Straits of Hormuz, or do we want to open up thousands of energy straits that flow directly to us from the sun and the wind—no bombing of children required—and create tens of thousands of jobs in the process? " newrepublic.com/article/2079...

newrepublic.comFor the Same Cost as Another Mideast War, We Could Make Oil IrrelevantThe price tag for building enough renewables to power the grid is eerily close to America’s typical price tag for the kind of war it would take to fully secure the Strait of Hormuz.

We’re at war with Iran over an “imminent threat,” yet the US is now lifting sanctions on Iranian oil and eased restrictions on Russian oil. Meanwhile, Russia is helping Iran with intelligence to target US forces. Make it make sense.

Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence. The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society

The average annual electric bill in the U.S. increased by $110 during Trump’s first year in office. Remember when he promised to lower energy costs on the campaign trail? That’s far from the only promise he’s broken. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcefFTXUcxU

McGowan: You're saying 46 Americans died, so we should attack this country. Here at home, 68,000 Americans die a year because they don't have health insurance. So, if we're going to spend billions of dollars on something…

To be clear to historians: Despite what contemporary government propagandists insist, absolutely no one in America sincerely believes that Iran is a threat to us. Pretty much everyone knows this is a stupid and pointless war, but we are essentially hostages in a police state.

Brendan Carr is threatening the media to cover the war the way the Trump regime wants. It’s one of the most anti-American messages ever posted by a government official. 1/

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.” What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.” Funny how that works.

Every single Republican and many Democrats should be absolutely ashamed of themselves for allowing this regime to go on, for allowing this war to go on for allowing those children and I ran to be killed. You have no moral accomplished. You have no integrity or moral Compass

What kind of garbage human beings are there to allow this to continue for another day? They’ve killed little children for absolutely no reason and if you don’t think that we’re not gonna get retaliated on then you’re ignorant and it’s gonna be your families and your children that are affected too!

Search-and-rescue crews were “flying blind” trying to rescue survivors from deadly tornadoes that hit the Midwest last week. Why? Because Kristi Noem hadn't approved FEMA’s $200,000 contract with a tornado-tracking tool. But she had time to spend $220 million on anti-immigrant ads. Priorities.
