The Burn Rate: $1 Billion a Day for War β€” Defend America Action The Pentagon is spending $1 billion a day on Trump's Iran war. See what that money could buy for Americans instead.

Oooh Defend America just came out with a brand new tracker to show us, in real time, how much we're spending on the war in Iran, and what else that money could be spent on.

They come with receipts! Share this everywhere!

I am following with deep concern what is happening in the Middle East and in Iran during this tumultuous time. Stability and peace are not achieved through mutual threats, nor through the use of weapons, which sow destruction, suffering, and death, but only through reasonable, sincere, and responsible dialogue.

Faced with the possibility of a tragedy of immense proportions, I make a heartfelt appeal to all the parties involved to assume the moral responsibility of halting the spiral of violence before it becomes an unbridgeable chasm. May diplomacy regain its proper role, and may the well-being of peoples, who yearn for peaceful existence founded on justice, be upheld. And let us continue to pray for peace.

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

It’s official: Republicans have let funding for FEMA, TSA and the Coast Guard lapse.

Rather than work with House Democrats on commonsense reforms to ICE, Republicans have chosen to SHUT DOWN the entire Department of Homeland Security.

For those of you who grew up after 9/11, we got along just fine without a Department of Homeland Security for 212 years.

The DHS was formed to try to prevent future terror attacks β€” now, it is orchestrating them.

Communion

There's no bread.
The bakers have gone into hiding.
The seats at the table are empty.
The Twelve are out marching with the thousands.
The streets are filled with a new song.
Only Judas sits at Target Plaza, counting his silver, while Pontius Pilate issues a carefully-worded statement.
Meanwhile, the centurions have quotas to fill.
But out on the streets there's a Communion.
Jesus takes the city in his hands and says,
"This is my body, broken for you."

Seriously, @people.com has been meeting the moment better than 90% of publications with direct reporting and crystal clear headlines.

This is a good way for the low-information voters who are usually detached from the news cycle to get turned around.

Michelle Obama said Americans shouldn't look to her to run for the nation's highest office.

During a live conversation with actor Tracee Ellis Ross in NY, the former first lady said the United States is "not ready for a woman" to be president, because the country has a "lot of growing up to do."

It cannot be stressed enough how important mutual aid networks are about to become. These will be tantamount to replacing the cut benefits in the coming weeks. Reach out within your communities. Build connections, talk to people. Ask how you can help each other. When we build solidarity, we win!
