β€˜It’s like the Day of Judgment out here.’ New England residents trapped in Middle East as war escalates. - The Boston Globe β€œThere’s nothing you can do but just sit and pray and hope nothing happens,” said Hassan Mourad, who arrived in Beirut last week on business.

U.S. citizens are trapped in the Middle East with no clear information and no way out.

Donald Trump's response? β€œIt happened all very quickly.”

This is a complete failure.

I'm pressing the Trump administration for a plan to evacuate Americans now.

NEW EPISODE: In North Carolina, Roy Cooper just won his Senate primary β€” and he may be Democrats' best shot at flipping the U.S. Senate. Cooper and I discuss why he's running, what's at stake, and why North Carolina is the #1 red-to-blue Senate seat in the country. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6i-h...

The United States had a deal that could have prevented Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.

Donald Trump ripped that deal up and got nothing in return.

DOOCY: What is motivating you to do this right now? There is a lot of other stuff going on in the world

TRUMP: In Iran we're doing very well. Somebody said, 'How would you score it from 0 to 10?' I said, 'I'd give it a 12 to a 15.'

Americans are paying the price for Trump’s war of choice in Iran. Gas prices are up more than 30 cents a gallon in the past weekβ€”and the GOP’s response is β€œdeal with it.”

✝️ A Holy War Against Iran? Mehdi on the Republican religious nutjobs pining for Armageddon in the Middle East. Plus: the latest on the Iran school bombing and, for once, a disgraced Republican is shamed into quitting politics.

I'm teaching about early 20th century eugenics today and was reminded that 9 years ago Republican Representative Steve King was stripped of his committee assignments by his GOP colleagues for this post that simply states what is now bog standard GOP policy/rhetoric on immigration and "civilization."

Gas up 11% in ONE week. $3.32 a gallon β€” highest in 18 months. 92,000 jobs gone. You started an unauthorized war AND killed the job market simultaneously.

Drill baby drill was supposed to LOWER prices.
How’s that working out?

Leavitt: "When he as commander in chief determines that Iran no longer poses a threat to the US and the goals of Operation Epic Fury have been fully realized, then Iran will essentially be in a place of unconditional surrender whether they say it themselves or not"

Oil price jumps after Qatar minister warns all Gulf production could stop Energy Minister Saad al-Kaabi says oil could hit $150 a barrel if the Iran conflict continues over the coming weeks.

From time to time I scream into the abyss to lament the lack of progress by our UK military towards non-carbon power. Crises like Iran exemplify our vulnerability.

Our oil goes on the global market. Electric planes, tanks etc. Hydrogen fuelled ships.πŸ™

ICE cannot be reformer. DHS was poison from the beginning.

Abolish ICE
Dismantle DHS.
Prosecute every person who violated the law or abused the public trust.
