This โ€œis a profoundly moral vote. It is a vote to direct our resources towards healing our own people - towards healthcare that saves lives, jobs that restore dignity, housing that shelters families - instead of raining destruction on other nations."

The news cycle may have forgotten already, but we havenโ€™t.๐Ÿ‘‡

Reports of lawless ICE abuses continue to come to light each day.

We have to rein in ICE -- and Congress needs to enact serious accountability and oversight.

"We must be willing to criticize the Islamic Republic of Iran as though Islamophobia does not exist...And we must be willing to name and fight Islamophobia as though the Islamic Republic of Iran does not exist" would fix a lot of media discourse right now

Excellent piece; and the two commitments described here works as well for Muslim-majority nations and Islamophobia:

"We must be willing to criticize Israel as though antisemitism does not exist...And we must be willing to name and fight antisemitism as though the state of Israel does not exist"

Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi and Grand Ayatollah Hossein Nouri Hamedani have issued fatwas saying revenge against the US is a religious duty. Trump has expanded this war beyond Iran's borders, while also turning our Euro allies against us.

The man has isolated the US as a worldwide target

We stand before an opportunity.

Europe can step onto the global stage united and strong, or resign ourselves to the sidelines.

Paraphrasing Winston Churchill in June 1940, this may not be Europeโ€™s finest hour, but it is Europeโ€™s hour of decision.

Trump loves sycophants, especially ones who are "poorly educated." Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin fits the bill.

AP: Trump says heโ€™s replacing his Homeland Security Secretary Noem and will nominate in her place Oklahoma Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin. Trump made the announcement on social media on Thursday, two days after Noem faced a grilling on Capitol Hill from GOP members as well as Democrats.

A modern-day Squealer from modern-day Orwellian Eurasia quoting 1984 to support his screeching rant is peak irony.

He's so dumb about some things. He puts his own foot in his mouth over and over. Just needlessly. It's because of his needy ego. Malignant narcissist. Now, with his position as POTUS with the SCOTUS in his back pocket, he's much more careless.

He's very good at conning & grifting. Tenacious grift.

The Trump regime has abandoned the constitution:

- declared war without Congressional authorization

- ignoring multiple court orders

- impounding Congressional authorized funds

- ignoring the freedom of speech and assembly

Itโ€™s a lawless regime that has no legitimacy.

Trump, Iran and Epstein As even the U.S. mainstream press is acknowledging, President Trumpโ€™s decision to wage a war of aggression on Iran appears to make no sense at all,

TRUMP - IRAN - EPSTEIN
Heโ€™s willing to sacrifice thousands of Iranian people in that endeavor, rather than sacrifice the lives of U.S. troops in an invasion to achieve regime change.

I heard a guy say, "They say Trump is dumb, but I don't think so. He's smart at conning others."

Couldn't argue with that. Trump is a master manipulator of groups, the media, and institutions, including the judiciary. He always weasels out. Will he do it again with the Epstein affair and Iran War?

Trump LOVES the poorly educated.

Trump says really smart people hate him.

And I think that speaks volumes about his character, the notorious conman who stiffs people left and right, who games the system and cheats at every opportunity.
