Despite the chaos Venezuela, the threat to Greenland/Denmark, the horrifying violence in Iran, Donald Trump has never wavered for a moment from his determination to break Canada.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't 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.

The Biggest Pro-Trump Mega-Media Monopoly Ever (it’s already distorting war coverage) But this mega-media monopoly can be stopped. Here’s how.

"...This isn’t news. It’s pablum from the White House. β€œ60 Minutes” was once a reliable source of tough reporting. Now it’s becoming a shill for the Trump regime.
CBS News is on the verge of becoming part of the largest pro-Trump media monopoly in America..."

NBC’s Richard Engel: β€œThe White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected β€” young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! β€” and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

Trump’s Pay-to-Pardon Scheme

Last year, lobbying firms raked in over $5 million from clients hoping to secure a pardon from Trump.

Turns out his pay-to-pardon scheme is quite lucrative. Watch. https://youtu.be/NflcWXdV-B0?si=0fAnSic2HAFVRmfN

Oil prices soar to levels not seen in years as war in Iran intensifies Supply concerns have driven crude and gasoline higher prices as the war ensnares major oil-producing countries and hinders exports from the Persian Gulf.

Oil prices spiked near $120 per barrel before falling back Monday as the Iran war intensified, threatening production and shipping in the Middle East and pummeling financial markets. https://to.pbs.org/4b0h044

The White House put out a series of hype videos about the war. Some have been defending it by saying military members themselves share these kinds of videos.

This is true. But they aren’t the White House. The WH is a bunch of children, and have no sobriety about the serious business of war.

I want ICE agents to be afraid. I want them to run and hide from the justice that will come when this regime ends. And I will personally advocate for their life sentences.

Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, Greenland, Canada, and on and on and on. Lindsey Graham says they are β€œmarching through the world.”
They don’t care how many US soldiers they get killed. Meanwhile, they’re building concentration camps at home for Americans to die in. What will it take for people to wake up?

Great quick read from Robert Reich. The one thing we must all do, is that after tRump is gone, we have to get rid of every sycophant that enabled him. That is every MAGA Congressperson and staff member from every department. They all must go

AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers β€” and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.

Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."

Yeah, good luck trying to convince the majority of Americans that the party who doesn’t control the presidency, senate or house is responsible for airport delays. Maybe you can give them a class on the filibuster then explain why their ICE reform request is unreasonable.

Sending troops into conflict is the gravest power a president holds. When someone facing indictments and scandals treats war like a distraction strategy, democracy is in danger. Soldiers are not props for a leader’s legal or political survival. Accountability matters.

Hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, and discrimination are viruses, magnified by suffering, carried in buckets, spilled onto the world.

We cannot eliminate them by actions that magnify hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, discrimination and suffering - only by actions that relieve them.
