I remember when our Military wasn't run by a disgraced Fox host and a convicted felon who is beholden to Russia.

It was 6 months ago.

This is just wrong on so many levels

Instead of preparing for possible terrorist attacks after the Trump administration bombed Iran

The Department of Homeland Security is brutally beating and detaining a laborer who's the father of 3 US Marines

Can we at least pause the fascism while we're at war

Officials Concede They Donโ€™t Know the Fate of Iranโ€™s Uranium Stockpile

Remember when Bush used WMDs as the excuse for war in Iraq but then never found any?

Now Trump's using WMDs as his excuse for attacking Iran but in fact he has no clue where they might be keeping their Uranium stockpile

No matter what Trump says, the US has gone to war โ€“ and there will be profound and lasting consequences | Simon Tisdall Trump has fallen slap bang into the trap laid for him by Netanyahu. His reckless gamble makes a nuclear weapon for Iran more, not less, likely, says Guardian foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdall

Trump, the isolationist president who vowed to avoid foreign wars, has walked slap bang into a trap prepared by Israelโ€™s Benjamin Netanyahu โ€“ a trap his smarter predecessors avoided.

The US is arming a literal genocide, has blocked international action against that genocide, and has now started a war with a sovereign nation by bombing some power plants its own intelligence reports are simply power plants - all on behalf of the country committing genocide.

Trump plunges the US into a new war In fewer than six months in office, the self-proclaimed anti-war president has engrossed the US into a new war in the Middle East

"Trump has spent the last five months vowing that the Ukraine-Russia war would never have happened if he was president, vowing that the Israel-Gaza war would never have happened if he was president. And yet the reality is that not only has he not avoided war, but heโ€™s plunged us into a new one."

In Pasadena, protesters ran ICE out of a hotel. The hotel insisted ICE leave. Protesters slashed tires of many of the vehicles and local tow companies refused to assist. /

Bernie Sanders did in fact find out about the attack on Iran during his speech in Tulsa. This is that gut wrenching moment when he stopped his speech and announced Trumpโ€™s post then informed the audience that we are now at war with Iran. Sanders made clear itโ€™s unconstitutional.

Donald Trump is an Insult to Those Who Died Serving This Nation Picture someone you love who died serving this nation, or even someone youโ€™ve never met.

Donald Trumpโ€™s traitorous presidency, his undeserved occupation of the Oval Office, and his very repugnant presence in the highest seat of power in America are all a massive middle finger to those who died so that we could endure.

One little interaction like that certainly wouldnโ€™t make any reasonable person consider it regardless, but for people who get it worse than this grandma ever will, I totally get it.

Today in Blue Sky I learned at a feeling level why some people go to the dark side or just disengage from politics after being publicly schooled by people who know NOTHING about them or their heart. Thatโ€™s not going to happen to me, but I was reminded why to just ignore and not engage.
