Netanyahu has tried for years to get a US president to go along with his desire for a war with Iran. He finally found one. Then he used chemical weapons on Lebanon. This man is committing war crimes and igniting hatred that will start more killings and destruction everywhere.

It now appears clear that Jeffrey Epstein did NOT off himself, based on staff talk overheard by inmates, independent bank reports that large deposits of money were made to the guard in charge at the time, and 2 suspiciously nonfunctioning cameras.

What is so despicable about Trump right now and this war he started with Iran is that he’s more enamored with appeasing Putin & Russia then protecting our men and women in uniform who are being targeted by his puppet master’s intelligence units!

This may not be a popular or patriotic take, but I wonder if our troops are being forced to fight a war they know is morally wrong, illegal, unconstitutional. And it is all of those. This goes to the generals and commanders as well. I sure as hell wouldn’t risk my life for the Psychopath In Charge.

When a US missile killed 160 children, president shits-a-lot claimed Iran stole the missile and fired at the school. When asked why he was the only one making this claim, he said "because I just don't know enough about it".
Go ahead. See if you can make this make sense.

Now feels like a good time to remember that Big Oil is the reason why we're still hooked on dirty, dangerous fossil fuels.

The industry's lies have essentially stolen a generation’s worth of time that we could have used to transition to cleaner, safer energy sources.

It’s time for accountability.

Note:
Our counterterrorism apparatus has been totally hollowed out.

Now we're at war with a country that has a history of terrorist attacks across much of the world.

We're going to have a terrorist attack.
THIS TIME, we cannot allow a PATRIOT act 2.0.

β€œThe American military is tremendous. It is the greatest in the world.”

I applaud the members of our military and we have very expensive technology.

But organizations are only as good as their leaders, and we have some dumb people running our military. It shows.

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.

That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

The dealer needs to keep you addicted.
