The costs of supporting Israel’s war on Iran:

- Dead American soldiers
- Dead elementary schoolgirls
- Over $1 Billion/day for combat ops
- Soaring gas prices
- Tanking markets
- Betrayed GCC allies
- Another constitutional crisis

…and growing.

trump knows that he will be impeached and potentially imprisoned if the GOP loses the mid-terms. He will do anything he can to make sure this doesn't happen, including cheating. We must do everything we can to prevent this from happening. We need him out of office by this time next year.
