We desperately need to grow independent media as fast as we can. You can start by signing up for Democracy Docket. I started it 6 years ago to be unapologetic pro-democracy. No corporate backers. It will never bow down or obey.
Sign up now to help it meet this moment. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.
Of any of the older members of Congress, Al Green is the LAST who should be replaced. And yet I can't be surprised; establishment Democrats are ACTIVELY undermining more progressive candidates. Shameful.

This is why red states have higher voter apathy. Always shenanigans.
I feel bad for these folks just trying to exercise their constitutional right to vote and having to deal with this mess.

Afghanistan started at 92 percent approval. Iraq started at 71. Iran started at 27. The "whose side are you on" rhetoric is identical. The country underneath it isn't. I wrote about how the framework works, and who's deploying it. www.readtpa.com/p/with-us-or...

It is crucial to remember that America has a regime. The Trump regime. This is not a normal administration.
Every single person who is a member of his administration is there because they have one thing in common.
Lying to and for Trump. Sycophants.
This is the Trump regime.
The Pentagon is hanging the White House out to dry.

TOMORROW: Hear from activists, foreign policy experts, and Members of Congress who are calling for immediate de-escalation in Iran and demanding immediate action to rein in Trump.
Weβll discuss actionable next steps and launch a nationwide push to tell every elected official no more endless wars.

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians.
We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.

We don't have an autism epidemic. We have better tools and understanding of neurodiversity. Recognizing something for what it is doesn't mean it's suddenly happening, but rather recognition is better.
