No War With Iran!

70% of voters say they oppose U.S. military action against Iran. The Iranian people inside Iran oppose it too.

Sens. Kaine (D-VA) and Paul (R-KY) have introduced a War Powers Resolution to block Trump from launching another illegal military strike on Iran. Urge your senators to support it today!!!

Trump Is Dragging the World Into a New Arms Race Among the critical issues facing our country today, nuclear arms control is seldom top of mind for most people, understandably, given our myriad political, social, and economic crises. Recent books an...

Thursday, Feb. 5th, New START, the last remaining nuclear arms control treaty between US/Russia, will expire. The urgency is clear. The US should continue to abide by the New START limits and pursue serious negotiations for a follow-on agreement to achieve deeper reductions to each side's arsenals.

Trump says US will sell F-35 stealth jets to Saudis as Prince Mohammed visits Kingdom’s de facto ruler to arrive on first White House trip since killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2018

Question - What's more important than justice for the brutal murder of Jamal Khashoggi?

Answer - 💰💰💰

The US will soon be peddling F-35s to the Saudi Kingdom

The Saudification of America is under way | Karen Attiah Jamal Khashoggi’s plight and murder was a warning sign for the US, of the impending loss of freedom and censorship that would sweep the country

Trump met today with Saudi crown prince (MBS).
2018: The CIA found that MBS ordered Jamal Khashoggi’s assassination. Saudi hitmen kidnapped the journalist in Istanbul and cut his body into pieces. Condemning leaders who order hits on journalists should be a basic tenet of US policy, but not Trump.

A House of Dynamite’s Nuclear War Crisis Scenario Is Chilling — Now Imagine It in Real Life As a peace and disarmament activist for over four decades, I was conflicted about whether to see A House of Dynamite, director Katherine Bigelow’s and

🎬 Just saw "A House of Dynamite" - and *everyone* needs to see this film. It's a chilling look at a nuclear weapons crisis in reality. ONE person can launch a nuke with NO additional approval??? Our future depends on eliminating nuclear weapons before they eliminate us.

US destroyers head toward waters off Venezuela as Trump aims to pressure drug cartels The United States is deploying three guided-missile destroyers to the waters off Venezuela as part of President Donald Trump’s effort to combat threats from Latin American drug cartels.

Congress, not the president, has the constitutional responsibility to decide when, where, and against whom the nation uses force. The designation of criminal groups in Latin America as foreign terrorist organizations does not change wartime authorities.

80 Years After Trinity, the Dangers of Nuclear War Have Never Been Higher Yet mainstream US media outlets and partisan politics are routinely oblivious to threat of oblivion.

July 16th 2025, marks the 80th anniversary of the age of atomic bombs, and the dangers they pose have never been higher.

"Nuclear weapons offer us nothing but a balance of terror, and a balance of terror is still terror."
- George Wald, Nobel laureate scientist
