This disgusting shit doesn’t belong in American society.

And Republicans who support it don’t belong in Congress.

Most media & social media consumed in the U.S. are Right Wing. Sinclair alone covers 40% of households.
RW media keep repeating pretty lies about T/GOP & ugly lies about Dem/minorities til the lies wear a groove into ppl's brains.

US troops were told war on Iran was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’, watchdog alleges Religious freedom group says 200 troops sent complaints of superiors using extremist Christian rhetoric to justify war

Our brave service members swear an oath to the Constitution, not to a religion.

Yet, our troops are being told that the war in Iran is “all part of God's divine plan.” That their commanders believe Trump “has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon.”

Ofelia Torres, teen who fought to have her father released from ICE custody, dies from rare cancer Ofelia Torres, 16, died on Friday from Stage 4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare and aggressive form of cancer, her father's lawyer confirmed.

This brave child fought cancer & ICE.
Her father should have never been in custody in the first case. Trump & Noem stole precious moments from them.
If you do not see how wrong this is, you have no soul.

Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces. Not surprising. What IS surprising? Our response: easing oil sanctions on Russia.

Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces, officials say The targeting information has included the locations of American warships and aircraft in the Middle East, the officials said.

Russia is helping Iran attack America, and Ukraine is helping America defend itself from Russia and Iran.

It is time to renew our support for Ukraine and Europe, and stop Trump's ongoing appeasement of Putin. Congress must now revive the Russia sanctions bill, get serious here.

Intel report warns large-scale war ‘unlikely’ to oust Iran’s regime A classified U.S. report doubts that Iran’s opposition would take power following either a short or extended U.S. military campaign.

NEW: A classified U.S. intel report completed before the war warned that even a large-scale attack wouldn’t topple Iran’s regime. Analysts say no internal force in Iran is powerful enough to challenge the regime’s remaining grip on power.

Yet Trump says: “We want them to have a good leader. 1/2

Seems likely that (a) the school was deliberately hit by a "precision" strike by the US or Israel relying on outdated intel and (b) US is more likely responsible than Israel. US didn't deliberately aim at a school, but it deliberately aimed at a building that is now a school and has been for years

Qatar’s energy minister warns of $150 oil amid Iran conflict
Qatar’s energy minister warns the conflict in the Middle East could see Gulf energy exporters shut down production within weeks and send oil to $150 per barrel.
Which would equate to $5.00 - $6.00 per gallon in the United States.

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countries—including the United States.

This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.
