Secretary Rubio's remarks indicate that Israel put U.S. forces in harm's way by insisting on attacking Iran. And the administration was complicit—joining their war instead of talking them down.

This is unacceptable of the President, and unacceptable of a country that calls itself our ally.

Boebert: Have you reviewed any Epstein files that were released that you believe reference or relate to those specific 2016 claims regarding the Podesta emails Comet ping pong pizza used as code possibly.

Clinton: Pizzagate was totally made up. I can't believe you're even referencing it

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.

This regime is so criminal, our entire nation should be charged with a war crime, just for electing this president. Definitely our congress should all be charged with being accessories to this madness.

#nowwatching Duel (1971)
Yeah, early Spielberg rules. 'Jaws' with a truck is thrown around a lot (deservedly so) but this film is a lot more than that.
And to have the truck and its dricer be such a brutal force... Love it.
A film on masculinity, on violence inherit in vehicles. Machete's up. 🔪🔪🔪

Mar A Largo is not a secure location for conducting a wedding or banquet, much less a war operation, I’m sure foreign agents have the place wired for sound.

A president on a whim, or at the request of another leader, starting a war; that is not ideal. But when you rename The Department of Defense, The Department of War, that’s a clear signal of intent. Congress needs to step in and stop this. Soldiers have already been injured and have died.

Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.

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

URGENT: Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna are using a discharge petition to force a vote on stopping Trump's war in Iran.

We've beat Mike Johnson BAD with discharge petitions before—and we'll do it again!

Tell your Rep. to sign on right now:
