If your response to our country participating in the bombing of school children starts with "Yeah, but..." your political ideologies are the least of my worries.

It’s a pretty typical thing to think. It has to matter to you first. Other people may or may not like it. Or a few people may like it. Just do it. Start with notes.

They're going to write books about all the big brain moves of this gang of imbeciles and among them will be "Spending a year trying to kill renewable energy and then launching a war that sends oil prices soaring"

So Trump wants a say in who leads Iran. Really? Has anyone looked at the collection of losers he's had in both of his administrations? His plus minus on HR decisions isn't stellar.

The #USNavy are cowardly war criminals πŸ‘‡

Everyone needs to know the extent of what the U.S did.

An unarmed Iranian ship invited to a joint Indian naval exercise paraded its sailors before the president alongside other participants, including the U.S.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

We are entering a new planting and cropping season with far fewer farm workers. Farm jobs' minimum wage and working conditions are not palatable to Americans.

Increasing gas prices from war and tariffs are going to make prices spike.

Expect food prices to go even higher.
