So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

He's sending her to "The Shield of Americas" which, clearly, is the political equivalent of "a farm upstate."

Wasn't perfect but at least Obamacare tried.

That said, your point is well made.

Slain Soldiers’ Families Speak Out After Pentagon Pete Frames Them as PR Problem The defense secretary claimed that coverage of their deaths is an effort to make Trump β€œlook bad.”

My heart grieves for these families. They, and the loved ones they lost, deserve our respect.

Or jobs. Or childcare. Or infrastructure. Or countless other things.

$1 BILLION per day, this is costing.

And the GOP just voted against reining in his reign when it comes to War Powers.

This is said to be from the 1950s, but I'd guess it's older than that. Whatever its year of creation, it couldn't be more relevant to this moment in time.

A virus without a vaccine or treatment is hitting California. What you need to know Cases of human metapneumovirus, or HMPV, are on the rise in parts of California. It typically causes mild, cold-like symptoms, but could lead to more-severe disease in vulnerable individuals.

Another virus with no vaccine. Thank goodness we've got a diligent HHS director who cares about protecting us.

Wait...what?!?!?

Rep. Jasmine Crockett is such a great patriot & class act.

I hope we see her leadership advance far beyond the Senate.
