The SAVE America Act is β€œdead for now” but not gone. Trump and House Republicans keep pushing it and leaning on Senate leaders to bring it back.

Call your senators and tell them to keep SAVE off the floor and vote no on any attempt to revive it. #SaveActTaxesVoters

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

8 if you count the invasion of L.A, Portland, Minneapolis -- not bombing in the traditional sense, of course. But nothing is traditional at the moment.

Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president be waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."

And yes, knowing that troops are being sent into battle sans Rules of Engagement is a big stressor for me. It honestly makes me sick to my stomach knowing that is happening. Knowing America has become this.

ALL EYES ON TEXAS πŸ‘€

After March 3rd, we lock in behind the Democratic nominee, Crockett or Talarico, and drive this thing straight through the general.

Because whether it’s Paxton or Cornyn, the threat is the same. Both are dangerous.

Just like Venezuela does not send fentanyl to the U.S. and Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction. It’s all been false flags to justify military aggression and war.

Just a reminder that not everyone in the military is a bootlicking asshole. Many are kids with no other options and others were born into families that expect the kids to join. Don’t be an asshole and cheer on their deaths.

No deaths in this war are acceptable.

The soldiers who died were because of Trump. Nothing else!
This war was never discussed with Congress in any way shape or form. It was a political war started because of the Epstein files. The gaslighting and propaganda is pathetic.

AYMAN: Can you tell me where Iran killed thousands of Americans in America?

ANNA PAULINA LUNA: I said they are responsible for thousands of Americans being killed

AYMAN: Where?

LUNA: Are you serious right now?

AYMAN: It seems like you don't want to have a good faith conversation

Could you imagine if any other President had attacked another country and killed the leader of that country and 48 hours later Americans still haven't gotten a single statement from the President, except for a pre-recorded, edited, statement he put out on his personal social media site? 🀯

This is going to be hard for some people to accept, but I think the US government is lying to us about the state of negotiations between itself and Iran.

So Mr Bone Spurs who once called veterans β€œsuckers & losers” is willing to send men & women to an illegal war in a foreign country just to inflate his ego & distract us from Epstein files? Do I have that right?

Am I the only person who finds it morbidly circular reasoning to attack a country, lose some of our troops, and then tell the country we attacked "we will avenge their deaths?"

So Iran can avenge the deaths of all the people we killed and we go on and on and on....

It's just sickening.
