The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies.

If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

Tell Congress: No War with Iran! Contact Congress today!

Do you agree that Congress must stop Trump’s attacks on Iran? Well the good news is Reps. Massie and Khanna are using a discharge petition to try and do just that.

This is the best way to circumvent coward Mike Johnson and force a vote!

Click below and tell your Rep. to sign on right now!

UK launches operation to support thousands of Britons in Middle East Officials are understood to be working on plans to evacuate British nationals, should airspace remain closed.

What's happening in Dubai bolsters the argument taxes should be based on people's nationality, not just their country of residence (ie the US model).

If Brits living abroad can expect to be airlifted out by virtue of being British, they should pay some tax towards that.

The Trump administration has unfurled banners on the Department of Education building featuring Booker T. Washington, Catharine Beecher, and Charlie Kirk. Washington and Beecher were influential figures in American education whose legacies shaped schools and teaching nationwide.

Pro-Palestine International Students Have Won in Court. Why Hasn’t Mahmoud Khalil Won His Freedom? One of Trump’s tricks is to send people to Louisiana where they get harsher treatment. Mahmoud Khalil is pointing out the iniquity of it.

Since Mahmoud Khalil's initial immigration hearing, new evidence has come to light that makes clear the government targeted him solely for his speech.

That's why we have filed a new motion with the Board of Immigration Appeals urging them to consider these documents.

U.S. war in Iran risks depleting munitions for Ukraine now, Taiwan later What the Iran War means for U.S. weapons stockpiles, and the implications for Ukraine munitions and a Taiwan scenario.

President Donald Trump’s administration is expending a significant proportion of America’s best firepower – at a speed that may take the country’s industrial base years to replenish and leave American power diminished for other wartime scenarios.

As we kick off Women's History Month, Donald Trump is hell-bent on eroding the advancements that generations of women have made.

We're making it clear to the President that we won't go back in time in Illinois β€” we're fighting for a future that moves us forward.

Conservatives Play Musical Chairs to β€œCement” Majority on Arkansas High Court - Bolts How seat-switching, plus a new state law, is helping gubernatorial appointees reap the benefits of incumbency before they’ve earned it from voters.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders appointed 2 supreme court justices to "cement" court's conservative majority.

Arkansas' constitution banned them from seeking a full term for their own seat. They decided to circumvent that by... running for each other.

This Tuesday, one of them faces challenger John Adams:

Feds asked New Mexico to halt Jeffrey Epstein Zorro Ranch sex trafficking probe, records show Former AG says feds halted New Mexico’s Epstein inquiry without sharing promised evidence as state reopens Zorro Ranch investigation.

Former New Mexico Attorney General Balderas details how the FBI forcefully shut down New Mexico's criminal probe into what was up at Epstein's Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe Co. The feds insisted that they were running their own criminal probe and that NM's involvement would not be tolerated. It was a lie.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.
