For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”

That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.

He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.

The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.

15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.

“A country that can instantly fund endless wars but debates every dime for healthcare and education doesn't have a budget issue--it has a values issue."

A billion dollars a day going towards the war in Iran so far.

The SAVE Act buries the ballot under paperwork, fees, and delays then pretends it’s “security.”

Documents. Money. Time off work. Travel.

Make voting harder and turnout drops. That’s not reform. That’s suppression.

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...

McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Kind of a throughline for this administration is that they seem totally unprepared whenever their actions are met with any response other than instant capitulation, even when that’s clearly not the response any sane person would predict.

Your reminder that Trump withdrew U.S. from the Iran nuclear deal in 2018 because - Obama.

Sen. Tim Kaine yesterday: “Is he too mentally incapacitated to realize that we had a diplomatic agreement with Iran that was keeping its nuclear program in check, until he ripped it up during his first term?”

If every person who has attempted or plans to attend a No Kings March votes Blue in the midterm election Congress can be retaken. Think about what this simple act can accomplish. Be sure you double check that you are registered to vote well in advance. This is a very patriotic act .

My husband, me, and his 87yo mother caught covid when he was in the hospital having open-heart surgery last fall. Thankfully we all recovered. No masks in the crowded elevator, some staff wearing a mask BELOW their nostrils.

The only reason he has anyone working for him is to either fix his screw-ups or take the blame.

Their loss reminds us why sending troops into harm's way is the gravest responsibility a leader can face - a choice only to be made when there is no real alternative.

Grieving for the four American service members known so far to have been killed in action, and praying for the families of these patriots who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
