This is the Trump playbook: planned incompetence to create fewer limits, less oversight, more unchecked power. Congress needs to reassert itself and demand real, durable, verified arms control, before Trump’s recklessness puts us in a spiraling, unwinnable arms race.

Status of World Nuclear Forces - Federation of American Scientists Despite progress in reducing nuclear weapon arsenals since the Cold War, the world’s combined inventory of nuclear warheads remains at a very high level.

New START was the last nuclear arms control treaty capping the arsenals of the two countries with 85% of the world’s nuclear weapons. Letting it lapse β€” then sidelining State Dept arms control experts at the eleventh hour β€” is malpractice. fas.org/initiative/status-world-nuclear-forces

Scoop: U.S. and Russia agree to observe New START nuclear pact after expiration New START is the last major guardrail constraining the nuclear arsenals of the two countries that together hold some 85% of the world's warheads.

The last treaty limiting US and Russian nuclear weapons expired last nightβ€” now Trump’s envoys are scrambling toward a handshake deal to observe SOME limits for six more months.

The stakes are astronomical, but this is amateur hour.

Our billboards feature StandWithMinnesota.com, a resource built by local organizers that lets you support ICE hotlines, dashcams for legal observers, food deliveries to families in hiding, legal services for detainees, and more.

Last month, Trump ordered soldiers to prepare to deploy in support of ICE’s murderous occupation of Minneapolis. We responded with new billboards outside Ft. Carson and Ft. Bragg telling troops where to turn for help if Trump orders them to break the law.

More members of Congress could stand to follow her lead, and should urgently adopt this agenda, including increasing the political pressure to end ICE and CBP’s deadly occupation of Minneapolis and other U.S. cities.

Rep. Omar is continually attacked for who she is, but also what she does. A leader on war powers fights, ending arms sales to human rights abusing govts, and repealing the Alien Enemies Act, she offers the antidote to authoritarianism β€” and challenges Trump at every turn.

We’re appalled by the attack on @ilhanmn.bsky.social and are relieved she’s safe. We condemn the inciting and disgusting statements from Trump and others that target her and the Somali-American community. Their rhetoric only exacerbates a climate of fear and deadly violence.

We don’t need arms races or strongman posturing.
We need real limits, real oversight, and fewer people with unchecked power over weapons that could end millions of lives.

And it’s not just nuclear weapons. It’s climate risk, biological threats, AI-fueled instability, and above all, leaders around the world choosing power grabs over keeping people alive.

The U.S. government is one of the drivers of the growing crisis, with Pentagon budgets ballooning, renewed arms racing, and Trump framing brinkmanship as β€œstrength” instead of reducing risk.

85 seconds to midnight didn’t happen by accident.
Governments are expanding nuclear arsenals, letting arms control collapse, and choosing escalation over restraint.

The Doomsday Clock is now closer to midnight than ever before. The good news is that we can still turn it back.

Bring Liam home!

5-year-old Liam Ramos was detained while he returned home from pre-school with his father. Now, Liam is separated from his family, his classmates, and his home.

No child should experience the fear and cruelty of family separation. #FamiliesBelongTogether

American soldiers did not sign up to join ICE’s murderous rampage through Minneapolis. Our latest billboard near Ft. Bragg, where troops are on standby to deploy to Minnesota, shows them who to talk to if they are worried about being implicated in ICE’s crimes.

It was true last year when we brought experts together to simulate what would happen if the US bombed Mexico, and it's true today: airstrikes in Mexico would be a dangerous boondoggle, hurting people on both sides of the border.

Military Intervention Will Not Liberate the Iranian People Iranians are once again caught between their own brutal regime and the U.S. war machine. There has to be a better way forward.

In @newrepublic.com, @nancyokail.bsky.social and @sinatoossi.bsky.social warn that U.S. military intervention in Iran would accelerate the erosion of international law and risk normalizing war as a substitute for politics.

ICE is a direct threat to our safety. ICE terrorizes our communities, ICE menaces our neighbors, and today ICE murdered a woman in Minneapolis. There is no excuse for any of ICE’s violence, no purpose beyond enacting Trump’s racist, authoritarian fantasies.
