A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nationβs people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.
We mustnβt let this war do so.

The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies.
If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

All while the poor cant afford to eat.

I went to my doctor and I lost 28 lbs in the last year. I did not need to lose 28 lbs.
I did not try to lose 28 lbs.
I lost the 28 lbs because I cannot afford to eat anymore!!β - Sharon

Thanks for sharing. Clearly, this president believes he doesnβt need to inform the American people of the decision to send their sons, daughters, husbands, wives, brothers or sisters into a war in the middle of the night. I hope folks understand that he treats us a subjects not as fellow citizens.

All search engines employ AI now. It has some advantages over checking every website yourself as AI can summarize the info youβre looking for. However, when I look at the info search engine AI supplies, my motto is trust BUT verify.

I can recommend Claude AI. Itβs consistently honest, doesnβt flatter you, and handles nuance well. It doesnβt just tell you what you want to hear β and thatβs exactly what makes it more useful. But besides that, Anthropicβs founders are Democratic donors, while OpenAIβs are supporting Trump.

Americans were fed lies by Trump and his election campaignβ¦and these people actually believed them without a logical follow up thought of what a mass deportation quest would entailβ¦

FIFA Peace Prize winner Trump is threatening another devastating war of choice in the Middle East over a nuclear program he claims to have obliterated last year.

Tell your leaders in Congress to speak up. We were told last year that our bombs destroyed the nuclear program and enrichment capabilities of Iran. This administration should employ real diplomats, not real estate developers, that understand the use of diplomacy to deter nuclear weapons.

CA is a ballot by mail state and makes it easy for us to vote and also monitor the progress of our ballot. We get alerts from our Secretary of State when our ballots have been mailed. We also get texts from our county registrar at every step of the way. When our ballots are mailed/received/counted.
