"Venezuela did not attack the United States. There was no imminent armed threat. The Security Council did not authorize the operation ...

... Under international law, that makes the attack unlawful."

The US Holocaust Memorial Museum says that β€œgenocide prevention” is a key part of its mission.

But they are silent on Israel's #genocide in #Gaza.

Museum executives have received 75K emails urging
@ushmm.bsky.social to end its silence.

When it comes to the grave question of when to go to war, Trump and many in Congress continue to ignore the will of the majority of American voters. The American people do not want another war that could cost countless lives and drain multiple governments of scarce resources.

But they do so without the support of top Democratic and Republican leaders, who continue to back Israel no matter what the cost is to America or people across the Middle East.

Thankfully, Members of Congress like Republican Thomas Massie and Democrat Ro Khanna have introduced War Powers legislation to block Trump's war.

Instead of listening to voters and rallying their opposition to a U.S. war with Iran, Schumer and Jeffries acted like a wet blanket and undercut the possibility of strong congressional opposition.

After Israel began bombing Iran, both Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries rushed to Israel's defense.

While Americans in both political parties oppose a U.S.-Iran war, key Democrats and Republicans in Congress continue to rubber-stamp the agenda of Netanyahu, AIPAC, and their allies in the U.S.

Trump's terrible decision was enabled by top Republicans and Democrats in Congress who failed to listen to the majorities of voters who oppose a U.S. war with Iran.

Trump has twice now sabotaged constructive efforts to make a deal with Iran and prevent an Iranian nuclear weapons program. First, Trump sabotaged the JCPOA deal crafted during the Obama Administration. Then, Trump sabotaged his own negotiations with Iran by joining Israel's war.

Trump, like former President Joe Biden before him, was already providing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with military support for Israel's genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. Now Trump is bringing America directly into Israel's war against the Iranian government and its citizens.

U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to bomb Iran is a profoundly foolish act that brings America into a reckless Middle East war of Israel's choosing. Despite the horrors of the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, it seems that policymakers in Washington have learned absolutely nothing.

The State of New York owns at least 3.5 million shares of Tesla stock.

That number should be zero.

Urge the New York State pension fund to drop its Tesla stock.

A Bomb Threat Targeted Student Protesters.Β So Why Did They Get Blamed for It? A bomb threat at Barnard College targeted the β€œterrorists/communists that are protesting.” But you wouldn’t know that from the school’s statements.

Ask your friendly city council members, county supervisors, and state legislators to help the #TeslaTakedown.

What can they do?

Introduce a bill or resolution to prevent their government from buying Tesla vehicles.
