I keep thinking that if Donald Trump had gone to prison for January 6, as he should have, all those Iranian schoolgirls would be having dinner with their families this evening.

Brendan Carr is threatening the media to cover the war the way the Trump regime wants. It’s one of the most anti-American messages ever posted by a government official.

I hope the old way of thinking - allowing Republicans to run unopposed in historically red areas - is gone for good?
Moving forward, let's put up a fight for any and all seats!

What the U.S. Government Is Dismissing That Could Seed a Bird Flu Pandemic Egg producers suspect bird flu is traveling through the air. After a disastrous Midwestern outbreak early this year, we tested that theory and found that where the wind blew, the virus followed. Vacci...

To combat bird flu spread, other countries have authorized poultry vaccines.

The U.S. hasn’t, amid political and economic pushback.

Without a vaccine, experts say the virus poses an escalating threat: β€œThe minute it transmits to humans, it’s done.”

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.

Over on Truth Toilet, Trump flushed, "when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money." So that's what we're going with. Like the tariffs, they're gonna say you're not paying for it. Let's see if the media buys it. I'd rather be wrong.

Trump's war with Iran, like so many other U.S.-backed coups and regime change wars, could lead to disastrous blowback.

Watch Bernie Sanders' warning from 2016.

Trump is spending $1 billion a day waging war on Iran. Meanwhile...

Trump's sons are investing in a drone company that could soon receive Pentagon contracts.

And of course Trump's Big Oil donors stand to gain windfall profits as the price of oil skyrockets.

War is a racket.

Russia has been sharing satellite imagery of U.S. warships and aircraft with Iran, helping Tehran target American forces.

Ukraine, in contrast, has deployed specialists and low-cost drone interceptors to help protect the U.S. and its allies.

Ukraine = our ally πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

Zelensky to Trump in August: We have developed amazing, inexpensive drone interceptors that shoot down Iranian Shaheds that we can provide you in case you are ever in another conflict with Iran.

Trump: No we’re good. We’re the US - you have nothing we need. You have no cards.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

1/ Here's what I can share:

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.

Every single member of Congress that voted against limiting Trumps war powers should be given a rifle, some MREs and dropped in Tehran to help β€œliberate” the Iranian people. They need to put their money where their mouth is.

The Trump admin tried to use emergency rulemaking to erase the Board of Immigration Appeals, requiring that basically all appeals (which cost $1,000 to file!) be summarily dismissed without any review.

Thanks to our @immcouncil.org legal team and others, the rule is now BLOCKED!
