Trump Knew the Risk of Iran Blocking the Strait of Hormuz. He Still Went to War. The president told his White House team that Tehran would likely capitulate before closing the strait, the world’s most vital shipping lane.

Could be reasons that the U.S. Constitution does not leave decisions to go to war to the whims of one man.

Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.

Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.

They are good for society and the economy.

Too many people, including some news media, let the truth be trampled upon without thought for what is happening to us and our nation.

This is our country. Donald Trump doesn't own America. He doesn't own the White House. Everything he does relies on our money.

We depend on Congress to represent our interests. They are failing us by allowing him to exploit our money for his personal interests. He & his party of sycophants must go.

Another word you might use for it is "looting".

"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

Sen. Murray: "I'm just sickened by this. To go into this war unprepared, to use outdated data, and to have this horrific thing happen where children were killed in a school sends a horrible message to those that are in a war with us and to our own constituents about what America's values are."

There is a reason the Pentagon hasn't been releasing these numbers daily. The cost of Donald Trump's Iran War is bigger than they want you to believe.

Trump has now conducted 42 boat strikes, killing nearly 160 people.

Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it.

He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner.

This is a danger to us all.

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiarβ€”far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)

From Ben Meiselas: The Defense Department spent $93B in September. The purchases included $225M in furniture, millions spent on food like lobster & ribeye steak, $124K for ice-cream machines, $140K on donuts & ~$100K for a grand piano installed at a senior official’s home.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
