At Donald's behest, the United States of America is committing crimes against humanity.

And the Republican Party is doing nothing to stop him.

Personally, I think this is more about trying to save his job in his newly-drawn district than some sort of moral awakening.

Trump Puts Noem Down Like a Dog Her tenureβ€”with its illegal deportations, immigrant pain, and killings of U.S. citizensβ€”ends this month.

While Noem’s tenure is coming to an end March 31, it doesn’t mean she’s out of future possible legal trouble. With the midterm environment looking good for Democrats, a Democratic-led House would likely investigate her tenure next year.

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.

If Trump really wants to destroy Iran he should go be its president for a few months.

This is a war time President. Captain Bone Spurs is a draft dodging pedophile causing yet another distraction. Any US blood lost is on his hands!

SCHIFF: Are you saying it's just fortuitous that $143m went to a subcontractor that you worked w/ extensively as gov of SD?

KRISTI NOEM: I had no choosing of contractors.

S: Can you state for record that you or Lewandowski had no communication with any agency involved?

N: To best of my knowledge

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?

NOEM: Yes

WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?

NOEM: No.

Our nation is again at war, not because we had to but because the president recklessly chose to.

Now we must recognize who pays the price: not the president and his wealthy allies, but service members and ordinary Americans.

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

So he's saying that he knew Israel was going to attack Iran and he believed Iran would retaliate by attacking US bases, so we had to strike first since Israel was going to get US forces attacked.

This war will do nothing to help - and will very likely make things worse - when it comes to the biggest challenges we face at home.

Trump or his wealthy friends won’t pay the price. It will fall on service members and their families, on taxpayers, and on working Americans already stretched thin.

Trump looks and sounds absolutely depleted today. He's so weak.

He would hate if you shared these photos taken earlier with your followers.

He originally said was going to cost $200 million. Then he said $250 million. Then $300 million. But now it's going to come in under budget at $400 million.

Today would be a good day for chickenshit Republican lawmakers to do something. But, they aren’t afraid of Donald Trump; they are JUST LIKE HIM.

Four U.S. soldiers have tragically fallenΒ in Donald Trump's reckless, chaotic war with Iran.

California salutes the courage and enduring sacrifice of our service members and their loved ones.

But our Commander in Chief? Don't worry, he's focused on what really matters: himself.
