Cranky old guy! 😑 If I were in charge, things would be working much better! ON spectrum so! We all deserve respect, no exceptions. WE have the power to promote what we want to see more of so lets do that! Signal: GrampyMax.59
War is a dead end.
Our children, & their children,
deserve a planet where every form of life can flourish.
War consumes human & natural resources
that should be devoted to safeguarding that future.
Decency demands we embrace peace!
Their future is in our hands.
Let us make this the very last war.
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.
I think people are waking up to the con.
Subject to revision without notice.
What we should learn from a history of warfare is that wars don't solve problems, they create problems. No one wins at war. War is a total dead end!
Think global security, not national security.

The concept of national security has to give way to the concept of global security.
No one is secure if the planet is not habitable. Why is that so hard to understand?
Well, corruption's not gonna fix itself, so it's up to us to do something.
Excellent. 🤦🏼♀️
I say we ship the entirety of the the current "leadership" the president, vice president and the "cabinet," to Iran, packaged up like a fruit basket, saying
"Deepest apologies, but here. Do what you want with all of them."

National security has to give way to global security.
No nation can thrive on a dying planet.
One of these days I'm hoping that enough people get pissed off about all this that we do something.
Like get organized. Like to elect new people.
One thing is for certain, if we don't challenge the status quo, this stuff is just gonna continue happening.
I clearly remember Iran saying that U.S. bases in the area, no matter which country they were in, were fair game and would be targeted.
You got it! And, back then CEO's made a decent Salary and maybe lived in a slightly better home; but they were not obscenely wealthy!
Rubio and spaghetti logic.
This is another Epstein diversion and excuse for canceling the Midterms.

The toddler with a full diaper gets to decide who to attack and the military can't say no.
Every atrocity in the history of humans has been from people following orders of fools when they should have just simply said no.
Expectation: Congress exclusively holds the power to declare war
Reality: The President unilaterally starts wars whenever and with whomever he likes, and Congress can't even be bothered to vote on whether to stop bombing schools, killing children and assassinating/kidnapping foreign heads of state
A Reuters/Ipsos poll finds only 27% of Americans approve of the military attacks. 43% disapprove.
The events of the past 48 hours have laid bare Keir Starmer's utter inability to stand up to Donald Trump - and this weakness could have serious consequences for the safety of British people.
Mitch McConnell discussed what he thinks his legacy will be, in an interview with the Lexington Herald-Leader:
"I would like everybody to be able to say, you know, I actually had an impact in a positive way on the country."
Steve Schmidt responded:
Hunting season in Florida starts Juli 1st.
The Republicans want
fewer people voting.
That's the entire plan.
China is dramatically demonstrating
what adult leadership, long-term thinking,
and strategy can do for a country and its people.
I'm hoping that this war on Iran teaches the West and the US in particular, especially Israel, to make friends, not enemies.
Siding with the Constitution isn't siding with Iran.
Whenever Ukraine or Israel
needs weapons or money,
it always pops up right quick.
Meanwhile, American citizens
are living on the street,
can't afford housing,
can't afford food, but sure,
let's go bomb somebody else.
Somebody who's never been a threat to us.
You know peace would cost a lot less.
This war is likely to cost us $15B or more
so what could we do with that money instead?
We need a new Congress and as many as we can get in November.
