Per @jonathankarl.bsky.social: Trump thinks he’s invincible and that no one can stop him. He also indicates that Trump arrogantly refused to accept concessions with Iran.
This lunacy has to stop 🛑
Medical experiments on prisoners?
Where have we seen this before?
TOMORROW: Hear from activists, foreign policy experts, and Members of Congress who are calling for immediate de-escalation in Iran and demanding immediate action to rein in Trump.
We’ll discuss actionable next steps and launch a nationwide push to tell every elected official no more endless wars.

Pixelated green logo background with centered text: “Nearly 60% of detained people are in GEO Group & CoreCivic facilities, including hundreds of children.”
CoreCivic runs the Dilley, TX ICE facility that imprisons children—many for longer than the court-prescribed 20-day limit.
And Citizens helps make it possible.

Pixelated green background suggesting the Citizens Bank logo. Centered white box reads: “Citizens Bank finances ICE detention operators GEO Group & CoreCivic.”
🧵 Why are people talking about Citizens Bank & ICE detention?
Since 2024 alone, Citizens has helped CoreCivic and GEO Group access more than $2.5 billion in financing.
Graphic urging people to move their money if their bank funds companies that imprison children, featuring a quote from a customer saying they will leave Citizens unless it stops funding ICE-affiliated prisons, and ending with “choose a better bank.”
When asked about Citizens Bank's relationships with CoreCivic and GEO Group, a spokesperson said Citizens works with companies that "conduct their business in a lawful manner."

"The attack came despite US intelligence assessments that Iran was unlikely to pose an immediate threat to the US mainland within the next decade."
So why do it?
"A weeks-long lobbying effort by Israel and Saudi Arabia..."
Ah. Not just weak, but cheap, too.

Susan Collins needs to see us united against the tragic, stupid, ill-conceived bombing of Iran.
She has the power, as a swing vote in the U.S. Senate, to bring this to an end.
From immediate oversight, to forcing a vote on a War Powers Resolution, to restricting or cutting off funding for unauthorized hostilities, our Members of Congress must use every lever in their toolbox to put an immediate stop to this war.
Make sure your elected officials hear from you.

If you are feeling helpless in the face of All Of It (and it's a lot), I am telling you: find a way to plug in locally.
Figure out who is doing something-- anything-- meaningful, and see if you can help.
The first org you find may not be the one. But you will get there.
It will help your heart.

Donald Trump is dragging the United States into a war the American people do not want. Let me be clear: I am opposed to a regime-change war in Iran, and our troops are being put in harm’s way for the sake of Trump’s war of choice.

I am focused on making sure that every New Yorker is safe. I have been in contact with our Police Commissioner and emergency management officials.

Donald Trump does not care about civilians in the region or the safety of US Troops.
He’s illegally bypassing Congress and starting a war with Iran that has already killed dozens of children. This is unacceptable.
Congress must take action to rein in Trump and save lives.
