Estimated cost of Trump's war: $1 billion PER DAY.

That's enough to pay for
- Medicaid for all 16 million people losing it because of Republican budget cuts
- AND daily food stamps for all 41 million people who rely on them

Imagine if we had a government put people over profit.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

Walk into a sandwich shop. It’s regulated for health and safety.

But AI, which will transform the world economically and socially, is completely unregulated. That’s insane.

We need to make certain that AI works for ALL humanity, not just the billionaires who own it.

Why Trump’s war on Iran is definitely taking place What's it like to re-read Baudrillard as bombs fall on Tehran?

if you want to understand how trump talked himself into an war of choice to overthrow the government of iran, you have to start where all discussions of great wartime leaders start:

Governing by Referendum Populism trumps good policymaking

Pluralism asks a lot more of our leaders than populism does. It asks them to do the hard work: to negotiate, to build consensus and buy-in, to explain trade-offs honestly, and to accept blame when decisions are unpopular if necessary.

If you spend time in the bad place, you’re hearing this claim a lot:

Alberta sends $23B more to Ottawa than it gets back. If we separated, we’d erase the $9B deficit and have a $14B surplus.

It sounds simple. It’s wrong. Here's why. 🧵

Trump has launched an illegal regime change war.

As someone who has survived the horrors of war, I know military strikes will not make us safer; they will inflame tensions and push the region further into chaos.

When we abandon diplomacy, we choose destruction.
