I was asked by Jake Tapper if my push to deny Trump funding for his illegal war with Iran was a failure to "support our troops".
My answer: refusing to repeat the mistakes of the past - sending soldiers to die in pointless Middle East wars - is how we support our troops
Sounds like someone with nothing left to lose. 😬
Nor pedophile electors. The only words I wanna hear from Trump voters is “I was wrong.”
Oooh, good word!
Watching TV in central NC is disorienting. On one hand we’ve got turkey farmers shooting guns and bragging on their MAGA cred . The next commercial is Bernie Sanders endorsing someone.

This guy is so afraid of wind mussing his “hair” that he wears a ball cap to meet grieving military families. Sad!
“Maybe changing the world is more like caregiving than it is like war.”
So much wisdom here. The next hero is us.

Meanwhile, all of us in NC are asking where the hell has this guy been?
I just left a classified briefing with the Trump Administration about the war in Iran.
I was worried before, but I’m more worried now.
There is also no evidence that there is an organized Iranian resistance movement with the capabilities to assume power. This was Israel sensing a weak, desperate, US president and using the moment to strike an old enemy.
Dammit. This might get me off the couch today. “Thanks” George. 😉 Seriously, I love this. I’m gonna try it on my old vets!

This is a really important watch. And terrifying. So grateful for those that are fighting back, at great cost to themselves.
I'm sure you're wondering how many paragraphs it took the NYT to note that the US-Iran crisis the world is facing was *deliberately created by Trump* when he exited the US-Iran nuclear deal in 2018 purely to spite a Black man he hated (Obama).
Answer: 22.
