Iranian-American: “I’m opposed to my country bombing my family’s country and my tax dollars paying for it. It’s wrong.”
(From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social )
the other day I was thinking: what will they do when all our jobs are gone and we have no money to buy all the bullshit they want us to buy? with what money do they expect us to sustain their lives?
and then I realized they have enough money for lifetimes and don’t actually need us at all anymore
I am so angry at @schumer.senate.gov right now. I know this is Trump’s war but Schumer has collaborated every step of the way. He even wants another vote for supplemental funding. More money for death from one of the leaders of the opposition party.
AFP: "It breaks my heart": UN humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher says "we're seeing staggering amounts of money, reportedly a billion dollars a day” being spent on the Middle East war, rather than addressing the world’s “huge humanitarian caseload.”
Senator Collins:
I'm asking you, not as your opponent, but as a Mainer and a veteran who has seen too many people die.
You can stop this war machine before it chews up any more lives.
If you still have a conscience somewhere under all that concern, we need you to find it.
We are currently outside the ICE Broadview concentration camp where Sunny Naqvi’s family believes her to be held after being detained in O’Hare by federal authorities.
There have been some very bad developments today.
Is he a Nazi? Or is he just a guy who will talk about how important it is to join unions if you want to get somewhere in the US? Would love to see Dems care about social justice when it’s not being used to shut down a discussion about class.

Is there anyone capable of imbuing the task of equitable monetary design and public finance with more philosophical creativity, poetic sensibility, and sheer imaginative firepower than @greenbackbetter.bsky.social? Will is a must-follow.
Throughout my entire career, I worked in the most vulnerable communities in New York City. People live in deep poverty, and have severe chronic illnesses. Never, ever seen a “lazy” human being in these communities. NEVER. The laziest motherfuckers alive occupy all three branches of government.
Like clockwork.

A story that is not being told enough about the Iran War is that the U.S. and Israel have totally different, incompatible goals. The U.S. says it’s targeting weapons systems. Israel wants regime change and a failed state. This conflict leads to total incoherence.
Join us today at 5:45pm ET to talk to Rep. Ro Khanna about whether Congress can stop the war — and why some Democrats are floating the idea of supporting a new bill to fund it.

President Trump was right in 2020:
"We've spent $8 trillion in the Middle East and we're not fixing our roads in this country? How stupid. How stupid is it? And we're not fixing our tunnels, our bridges, our hospitals, our schools? It's crazy."
After Oversight Dems voted to subpoena AG Pam Bondi, the DOJ released a portion of previously-withheld documents with serious allegations against President Trump and an underage victim.
But let’s be clear: this White House cover-up is ongoing. We will get answers.
The largest and longest nurse strike in New York City history concluded last month.
A rank-and-file nurse leader writes in Jacobin about how the 15,000 striking nurses beat giant hospitals to win major victories on safe-staffing and other issues.
Chuck Schumer is not only failing to meet the moment by not opposing the war on Iran.
He has long been a hawk on Iran among Democrats and Americans who are yearning for peace.
DOJ “accidentally” withheld 53 pages of Epstein files tied to Trump. NPR caught it. Now 16 more quietly appear… leaving 37 pages still missing.
Apparently “mistakenly tagged as duplicates” is the DOJ’s new filing system.

New files released detail a woman met with the FBI at least four times to allege she had survived being sexually abused by Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump when she was a child.
Nothing happened.
Don't allow yourself to be distracted from the Trump/Epstein files release by Trump's illegal war in Iran. Don't fall for it, please.
Wait until he finds out that he swore an oath to defend freedom of religion
This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things I’ve ever seen from the United States government.
