Push from Saudis, Israel helped move Trump to attack Iran President Trump launched a wide-ranging attack on Iran after weeks-long lobbying by an unusual pair of U.S. allies in the Middle East: Israel and Saudi Arabia.

SUPER SHOCKED: Israel and the Saudis lobbied Trump to start the war. As @maddow.bsky.social asked: who benefits? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

No Democrat should vote for a single penny of a military appropriation for the Iran War until they first get to vote on a Declaration of War.

Bribe for hire Pam Bondi has rescinded the Biden-era policy against no knock warrants, Breonna Taylor was murdered due to one, and it was an important public safety measure that saved lives. ICE-Gestapo can now break into any home they choose.

This would be called fascism.

WARNING: Illinois Is About to Elect a MAGA-Aligned Senator But it's not too late -- here's what we need to do to prevent a catastrophic failure and instead elect someone whose record aligns with our values

IL is on the verge of electing a Senator far more aligned with Trump, MAGA power brokers & ICE infrastructure expansion than the values of a deep-blue state.

Here’s what Raja Krishnamoorthi hopes you don’t know about him & how we elect someone better.

Justice Alito’s latest opinion is a very, very bad sign for voting rights A decision upholding a New York GOP congressional district could be a prelude to killing the Voting Rights Act.

If the court were to rule against the VRA this spring, that could shift roughly a dozen seats in the GOP’s favor this year, turbocharging Trump’s efforts to manipulate the midterms.

Alito is now telegraphing just how far he’s prepared to go.

Over and over again, Trump and his talking heads keep saying "they were going through attack Israel". The USA is not Israel. Now several of our soldiers are dead and injured with more lives set to be lost.

So the State Department is forcing everyone to immediately leave the region but is also refusing to help people leave the region.

The strike itself is illegal and disastrous but their lack of readiness for what comes next is unforgivable as well.

Incompetence everywhere.

There are actually a lot of MAGA who are pissed about this war with Iran. The United States actually acted on behalf of Israel and Netanyahu. None of this is the "America First" they voted for and it's great to see many of them finally calling Trump out.

1. Trump is already doing his hyperbolic: β€œwe could do this forever!” nonsense.

I’ve often joked that the military has so many stockpiles that our stockpiles have stockpiles, and that’s largely still true for offensive weapons.

Not the case for defense.

Warnings to citizens to evacuate 3 days into this war, when airspace is closed, is a clear sign of ZERO strategy and planning by the Trump admin.

Now Americans have limited options to evacuate at an extremely dangerous moment with no government assistance. This admin is failing its citizens.
