It is not too late to stop this mad rush into region-wide war. Take action by calling your representatives and saying βNo War on Iranβ and βNo Boots on the Ground.β Get organized with neighbors and others to be in the streets.

Kristi Noem has used $200M+ in taxpayer funds to pay firms with close ties to her top aides to make anti-immigrant PSAs.
Her luxury jets will cost taxpayers nearly $300M.
Trump's lackeys rail against "government waste," but are happy to pilfer taxpayer funds for themselves.
The White House wants an extra $50 billion to fund Trumpβs illegal war.
Thatβs on top of the Pentagonβs $1T budget β which Trump is trying to boost to $1.5T.
Remember that over half of defense spending flows to private corporations and the Pentagon has failed eight financial audits in a row.
Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich donβt create jobs or grow the economy.
What's required is investment in working people β and better wages.
When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.
Remember this.
So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.
That's roughly $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
People do not 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.
Instead of spending $50 billion to bankroll Trumpβs criminal war on Iran, we could:
-Extend ACA subsidies for one year
-Restore SNAP benefits for 2.4 million people
-And ensure Medicaid coverage for nearly 2 million people
Itβs not about what we can afford. Itβs about priorities.
Like clockwork.
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
Ben Stiller is calling out the White House after it used a clip from Tropic Thunder in a video promoting the Iran war.
βWe never gave you permission and have no interest in being part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie,β Stiller wrote.
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

"U.S. military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school."
"The strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the βMiddle East."
Iβve been asked if I would support Sen. Mullin as Noemβs replacement.
The answer is a resounding NO. The rot in DHS is deep, much deeper than any individual.
Itβs a question of policy not personnel. The Senate should not consider any DHS Secretary nominee until DHS and ICE are reined in.
AOC: He impulsively went in on Venezuela. He impulsively went in on Iran. It led to increased global instability and every time heβs done that, it has been consistent with a spike in what is happening with the Epstein files. I think that he feels existentially tied to it.

This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things Iβve ever seen from the United States government.
Moskowitz: "Let me congratulate the former Homeland Security Secretary on her appointment to be the Shield of Americas, which I'm pretty sure the president came up with when he watched the last Avengers movie"
βCut the utilities, condemn the building, demo it, take it under eminent domain, whatever you can do. Make it impossible for them to use our neighborhood for a concentration camp,β he said.
βThis will not be solved by a harshly worded letter or resolution. We need action.β

The reason we have βstupid rules of engagementβ is to make sure we donβt bomb elementary schools.
Without the dots, it looks like polygraph test results from a pathological liar.
When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.
And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.
I think Talarico stands a better chance to win the general election in deep red Texas.
But I think Crockett is terrific and if she wins the Texas Senate primary, I'll donate to her and unequivocally support her.
Every Democrat needs to get on board and support whomever wins.
BREAKING: The DOJ has been taking down certain Epstein file documents, per CBS News.
BLUMENTHAL: Have you met with any of the American citizens who have been detained or arrested by your agents?
NOEM: They could've been instructing law enforcemen--
BLUMENTHAL: You haven't met with them. I'd like to introduce you to 3 of them. Will you please stand?
The majority of Americaβs teachers β a whopping 71% β have at least one side job because theyβre so underpaid.
Meanwhile, the country is about to be launched into a long, drawn-out war that has already cost an estimated $2 billion.
