Now that Republicans have done Trump's bidding by blocking limits on his war powers, remember that in doing this, they are also relieving *themselves* of the obligation to vote on the enormously consequential decision of whether to go to war. Craven abdication.

CNN: State Dept urges US citizens to "DEPART NOW" from countries throughout Middle East
Two days into the war:
- three F-15s shot down
- U.S. embassy in Saudi Arabia in flames
- six U.S. service members confirmed dead; more wounded
- State Department tells Americans to flee the entire Middle East
He also… has not ended eight wars. It seems unhealthy we have people repeating this nonsense claim on major media outlets and not being immediately corrected.

Contempt. Literally.
Contempt for other countries, contempt for the idea of an international community, contempt for UNSC's mission of preventing breaches of international peace.
Tells leaders to pay for corrupt "Board of Peace," sends unelected, unqualified spouse to chair UNSC.
Utter contempt.
Bibi jawboning Trump into war surely won't cause anti-semitism to metastasize. No way, no how.

A competent president would (1) not have started an illegal action after being egged on by Saudi Arabia; and (2) would, anyway, have known if our (formerly) closest ally would support us beforehand.
Alas, we don't have a competent president. Not even close.
Sooner or later, the costs of disinvesting in state capacity become apparent. If you put more money into bombing places you need foreign service capacity more, not less

Oh god. Is *this* why GOP is OK with murdering school children & U.S. troops? To get Dems to fund DHS?
Note to Dave: Trump has gutted the entire natsec apparatus, the FBI, DNI, and no one will share Intel with us. Funding DHS does NOTHING but feed the mass deportation-for-profit machine.

To abolish ICE, we must abolish pro-ICE “Dem” collaborators.
Pro-ICE incumbent Henry Cuellar is running in the TX-28 Democratic primary against Physician & Veteran Ricardo Villarreal on March 3rd, 2026.
Don’t forget to vote!
I went to the protest by myself and I was talking to a few people around me. One man said: 'I sincerely hope that China doesn't start bombing Los Angeles to free us from our fascist regime.' - Everyone was extremely solemn at that comment.

So let’s think about this.
A private company refused - on principle - to yield to the government’s demands.
The government then cancelled its contracts with the company and has set about destroying it
