The largest human protest OF ALL TIME, around the world, Peacefully, was The Women's March, on the day after Trump was inaugurated in 2016. I am a woman who participated, and will again. I also went to Washington DC protest Brett Kavanaugh.

War does not change the facts. Resignations happened. The Epstein files still demand accountability. โš–๏ธโ—

Another Trump Goon Mansplains Religion to the Pope A Trump loyalist thinks he can teach the pope a thing or two about God.

I haven't identified as Catholic for many, many years, but this made my head explode even more violently than most headlines lately.

(I wonder what Sister Anacleta would have had to say.)

NEW: In a statement, VoteVets calls out Donald Trump for recklessly launching an unconstitutional, aimless war with Iran, ignoring warnings and endangering lives while lying to Americans. Republicans must hold him accountable.

What if a nation's legislature cedes its responsibilities to an executive? Sound familiar? In March of 1933 the Reichstag enacted a statute that gave the German cabinet, and as a result gave the new chancellorโ€”a man named Hitlerโ€”emergency powers to override the Weimar Constitution.

Trump dubbed the attack โ€œOperation Epic Fury.โ€ The move could cause a broader conflict in the region, as Iran has vowed a โ€œcrushingโ€ response, Reuters reported.

Voting rights groups sue Georgia for refusing to release voter purge records Without full access to the records, plaintiffs say they cannot determine whether eligible voters were wrongly removed.

NEW: Georgia removed nearly 471,000 voters from its rolls last summer โ€” roughly 6% of all the stateโ€™s registered voters.

Now voting rights groups are suing, arguing the state is illegally hiding records about how the purge was carried out.

CNN reporting that the strikes on Iran tonight are joint US and Israeli strikes.

Which means Donald Trump should be impeached for a third time.

What he has done tonight is illegal under the US constitution and the UN charter.

A U.S. official said American military strikes on Iran were underway.

Remember when Congress authorized the use of force against Iran?

Me neither.

Any U.S. attack on Iran would violate U.S. and international law.

Opinion | Trump didn't even try to make a case for war with Iran Michael A. Cohen: The president has shown complete indifference to getting buy-in from Congress or Americans for a military conflict with Iran.

Trump didnโ€™t even pretend to try to make the case for war with Iran

The U.S. has attacked Iran again, and Trump has shown complete indifference to getting buy-in from Congress or Americans.

Why Attack Iran? Our Authoritarianism and Our Corruption

How to understand war with Iran? We must get away from propaganda. Facts suggest two interpretive frameworks: a foreign war as a mechanism to destroy democracy at home; and a foreign war as an element of personal corruption by the president of the United States.

The judges in WV have seen enough.

They say that if the ICE continues detaining people in ways they have unanimously deemed illegal they will start issuing civil fines and contempt findings โ€” including against state officials who help them carry it out.

President Trump was elected on a promise to end regime change wars. He has done the opposite.

He got us into this mess when he ended President Obamaโ€™s nuclear deal. Now he launched a military operation against Iran without Congressional authorization.

The American people now see Trump for who he is โ€” a would-be dictator who does not care what Americans think or want, cares nothing about our Constitution or our laws, and sees himself as a kind of eighteenth-century king, with unlimited power to drag us into wars without the consent of the people.
