Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

Murphy: "Literally in my other ear I'm listening to Ted Cruz on another network explain why this mission is so essential to destroy the nuclear program. I may have to walk over there and tell him the admin is now briefing that getting rid of the nuclear program has nothing to do with this mission."

Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"

Trump multiple times just today has said the country is at war. War can only be declared by Congress, and Iran posed no imminent threat. What Trump is doing there is a textbook illegal war and impeachable offense — if we still had a Congress.

We are entering a new planting and cropping season with far fewer farm workers. Farm jobs' minimum wage and working conditions are not palatable to Americans.

Increasing gas prices from war and tariffs are going to make prices spike.

Expect food prices to go even higher.

So far we’ve heard 12 different primary reasons for the war, 7 different main objectives, and 5 different exit strategies.

Boebert: Have you reviewed any Epstein files that were released that you believe reference or relate to those specific 2016 claims regarding the Podesta emails Comet ping pong pizza used as code possibly.

Clinton: Pizzagate was totally made up. I can't believe you're even referencing it

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop this.

One of the upsides of being “stranded” in Chicago last week after a historic blizzard engulfed the East Coast: I had the chance to visit the Art Institute of Chicago, not once but twice.

I actually am unhinged enough to think it’s not out of the realm of possibility that he launches a war to distract from Epstein files and have a reason to declare a national emergency to suspend voting. It’s not as if lost lives matter to him.

The thing about the U.S. and Israel is that both of their leaders are trying to stay out of prison.

Trump in his SOTU said he was going to do whatever he wanted without congressional approval as required by the Constitution.
The Republican Congressmen applauded en masse.
The most disgusting display of cowardly grovelling ever.

Trump didn’t deliver a State of the Union.
He delivered a two-hour infomercial for his own bloated ego — powered entirely by lies.
You can’t tell people the economy is great while they’re choosing which bill gets paid late.

imo the threat posed by CBS News and CNN getting absorbed by pro-regime billionaires isn't that they're going to produce right-wing slop that convinces people to be right-wing, it's the dismantling of newsrooms capable of doing investigative reporting on the administration. Fewer eyes on the street.

Measles was wiped out in the U.S. 25 years ago and now we’re already past 1,000 cases in February because vaccination rates dropped below the safety line. This is what happens when public health gets gutted and people stop trusting basic science.

This is clearly blatantly intentional voter suppression and any claim otherwise is completely unserious
