I see people making the point that if this keeps going, we won't have a nation.

But if we have a system incapable of bringing criminals to justice for their criminal acts, without fear or favor, then we ALREADY don't have a nation.

There are seven American dead from Iranian drones. We told Ukraine β€œno” when they offered us their drone defense in August that we’re now begging for.

Unacceptable

Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"

Pete Hegseth says Trump’s call with Putin was β€œdecisive” and opened the possibility of peace between Russia and Ukraine.

Russia is still bombing Ukrainian cities.

Peace requires pressure on the aggressor, not compliments after a phone call.

Americans will pay $1.5 BILLION MORE at the gas pump just this week because of Donald Trump's war with Iran.

California will continue using the tools we've spent years developing to help fight price spikes and lessen the blow from Trump's recklessness.

We're spending $1 billion per day on war as millions of working people struggle to get by.

Meanwhile, America's ultra-rich have never been richer.

It really sucks that the president of the United States is not a reliable source on U.S. foreign policy.

Maybe his words relate to actual policy and maybe they don’t. At many moments, even he doesn’t seem to know.

Throws off so much, and makes large scale coordination virtually impossible.

The problem isn't voter fraud, it's the frauds we're told to vote for.

In contrast to the coverup of the EPSTEIN crimes here in America, there are ongoing investigations in the UK, France, Turkey, Poland, Latvia & Lithuania that is sure to expose his central, filthy role in the largest crimes against humanity case in world history. #AccountabilityIsComing

Despite massive bombardment and the assassination of Iran’s leader, the US has failed to overthrow the Iranian government. Instead, the conflict is expanding and becoming more dangerous. The war is devastating civilians and the stock market.

Has anyone pointed out to ICE agents that if they're arresting people solely to collect a bonus, they're not law enforcement officers. They're bounty hunters.

I look forward to all of them losing their jobs and being blacklisted from serving in law enforcement.

What is NOT required is that your name matches your birth certificate. The registration form asks where you were born. If you were born in one of the 50 states, you are a citizen. If born abroad, you need to provide information on where & when you were naturalized.

In Illinois, we have always had to have ID to register to vote. A picture ID issued by a government agency, like a driver's license or state ID with current address, military ID, school ID, passport, etc. And a second piece of ID with your name: school ID, bank statement, credit card, etc.

Monday's Thought - Instead of making voting easier, the GOP does all they can to make it more difficult. Now, everyone has to provide ID to register to vote. Now, they want Passports, etc. for us to actually vote. That is a Poll Tax. They base these onerous conditions of fraud. There is none.

The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.

Today the United States wasted another #1B on an illegal war in Iran, money that could have been spent on funding health care or providing SNAP benefits or cancer research or academic scholarships for minorities. I could go on and on but I think you get my point. #endtheiranwarnow
