Democrats must use all leverage possible to try to stop Trump's illegal war in Iran.

We're demanding public hearings.

And will continue to force votes on the Senate floor. 🧵

The only other country with Tomahawks is the UK. The reason is because their submarines are configured for this cruise missile. Australia will get them for their new subs, but that's not operational yet. One can't just launch these from the back of pick-up truck. So did Iran steal a UK submarine?

None of that exempts us from our failure to police our own; for the times we have stayed silent when speaking required courage; when we have laughed nervously through the dehumanizing, racist, and sexist filth delivered by our neighbors, fathers, friends, and co-workers.

Yes, White Men, We're the Problem. All of Us. Hey, guys, it’s time for us to have a white man-to-white man conversation.

There is no Good White Guy loyalty card where we earn rewards for having deconstructed our faith, spoken out against patriarchy, defected from the politics of our parents, or evolved beyond the dog-and-pony faux opatriotism we were weaned on...

Well, doesn’t that title sound honorable “Interior Proposes to Restore State-Aligned Hunting Regulations on Alaska National Preserves.” What it actually means is the Trump administration just moved to bring bear baiting back to Alaska’s national preserves.

The bottom line is Trump sacrificed 8 American lives (& counting) and more than 1,000 Iranian lives (& counting) for nothing. He hurt the US & global economies, destabilized the Middle East, & will pull out with the same Iranian regime in power. There's no silver lining.

A senseless, criminal waste

"Trump’s war of choice against Iran is also straining relations with allies and partners. When President Bush launched his war against Iraq in 2003, he did so with the support of four dozen countries. Trump launched his war with just one partner—Israel."

EIGHT DOLLARS A GALLON.

Downtown Los Angeles.

Today.

Trump promised to lower gas prices on Day 1. Instead he started a war with Iran and gas in LA just topped $8.

This is sticker shock. This is his fault.

“It mixes up different elements of the nuclear program and their potential proliferation capabilities,” Sokova said. “Research reactors are not capable of doing enrichment of uranium, whether for civil or military purposes.”

Witkoff and Kushner chose not to have nuclear technical experts present during negotiations in Geneva, a senior Middle East diplomat with knowledge of the talks told MS NOW. The United States then chose to skip out on technical talks scheduled for last Monday in Vienna.

The United States then chose to skip out on technical talks scheduled for last Monday in Vienna.

Elena Sokova, the executive director of the Vienna Center for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation, told MS NOW that the administration’s “confusing and misleading” assessment of the reactor was laden with “technical errors.”

This is what happens when you send people who don't understand the issues.

Trump Went to War With Iran Because Jared Kushner Is a Fool Donald Trump’s top two negotiators have no clue what they’re doing.

Kushner and Witkoff are ignorant hacks, part 245,699.

"Several nuclear experts have raised questions about the disastrous duo’s technical understanding of uranium enrichment after they presented an assessment of Iran’s Research Reactor that made no sense."

A note on the 10-minute speech Trump gave tonight: anyone with any degree of knowledge of the Middle East knows every second of it was horseshit. I couldn't locate one true statement, not even on low-hanging fruit like Iran's naval assets. The man isn't just ignorant but living in a delusion. Scary.

This and the decades of proof should be the main messaging of the entire party. If every Dem hammered on constantly with receipts showing Republicans are bad for the economy maybe people would start to catch on.

We need to keep reminding folks that economic effects of policy take time to see

He's not smart. He's not knowledgeable. And he doesn't listen to any of the people who are. For decades he's gotten his way by being an obnoxious bully and making threats, and he doesn't know what to do when that doesn't work.
