Imagine how much better the world would be today if George W Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton and others who pushed the Iraq war were imprisoned for crimes against humanity.

The Democratic Party Has Made a Religion of Curated Facts Centrist Democrats claim to be the bearers of hard facts, dismissing leftist dissent as emotional and naive. But their “facts” are often a mishmash of consultant data, selectively interpreted focus gr...

Democrats & Republicans both work for the same oligarchy. They use different rhetoric to get the votes and consent from different groups. They differ primarily over social/cultural war issues which the oligarchy is not concerned about while giving the oligarchy the economic & war policies it wants.

What if the oligarchy which controls this country decided they wanted to hire an actor to play the role of president and they chose a reality show host?

Democrats must defund Trump’s imperial war | David Sirota, Jared Jacang Maher, Laura Krantz and Ron S Doyle Trump is wielding imperial powers created by a decades-long master plan. The only way to stop his war is to cut off the money

Democrats must defund Trump's war on Iran. Plus stop funding for Israel, ICE, and for the surveillance state which Biden enlarged.

Americans aren't facing a democratic collapse. We’re living in its aftermath | Eric Reinhart The US was an oligarchy well before Trump’s first term. Recognizing this reality is essential to building a true democracy

"the decline of democracy did not begin with Donald Trump but unfolded gradually across decades, including under the stewardship of the Democratic party leaders who now brand themselves as democracy’s last line of defense."

Of course she predicted it. What we see now is a continuation of Biden/Harris policies. Things would be much the same if Harris had won, except she would talk more nicely and Democrats would go along.

The Iran War Is Unfathomably Depraved Our media’s sanitized coverage obscures the human toll. Are we able to confront the full sickening evil of what the U.S. is doing?

The war on Iran is mass killing of civilians based upon lies in violation of international law. It is Gaza and Libya on a larger scale, with both political parties bringing us to this point. www.currentaffairs.org/news/the-ira...

The "Peace President" is addicted to war, escalating the bipartisan policy of belligerence towards Iran and avoiding diplomacy post Obama. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/o...

‘We’re in it’: Democrats won’t rule out giving Trump more money for Middle East war Democrats will have to balance a desire to criticize Trump’s offensive in Iran with pressure to support funding to defend the nation now at war.

No surprise that several Democratic Senators, including both of Michigan's warmonger Senators, are considering voting to fund war with Iran. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

Analysis | Here’s how much of your life the United States has been at war Anyone born in 1982 or later has spent at least half of his or her life in a country at war.

It is good to see centrist Democrats now opposing war when the US has been at war every year of the Obama & Biden administrations, plus both Trump administrations & Bush after 9/11. Despite this some are falsely posting that there were no wars under Obama & Biden.

It was often the business media which did the best job of covering the science.

The same centrists who excuse genocide and attacks on civil liberties from Biden and Harris have also become science deniers to defend Biden's policies to allow Covid to spread out of control. Democratic centrists are little different from Republicans.

New research ties COVID-19 to a recent increase in heart failure deaths A North Texas cardiologist says some of the increase stems from a direct physical impact by the virus on the heart. But much of it resulted from lack of access to health care.

Why Can't Top Democrats Just Say "No War With Iran"? The response to what could be the biggest geopolitical disaster of the 21st century is foot-dragging, silence, and sleepy, feigned opposition long after the deed is done.

Not just this administration. Biden also wanted to falsely claim the pandemic was over and downplay Long Covid.

Republicans: War is great
Centrist Democrats: We want the same wars but get approval from Congress
The left: No more wars

That's the point of the article.

Team Trump Opposed War With Iran. Then They Started One Donald Trump, JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard, Stephen Miller, and so many in MAGA claimed they would stop regime-change wars, not start them. We have the receipts.

Team Trump changed position on opposing war with Iran.

Tulsi was half right. A vote for either Harris or Trump was a vote for war. This is how controlled opposition works.
