If oil prices spike, working families feel it first at the pump, at the store, everywhere. Dismissing those concerns as foolish ignores real economic pain.

I was asked by Jake Tapper if my push to deny Trump funding for his illegal war with Iran was a failure to "support our troops".
My answer: refusing to repeat the mistakes of the past - sending soldiers to die in pointless Middle East wars - is how we support our troops
Christian Nationalism is NOT Christianity, but it is a national security threat.
π The Military Religious Freedom Foundation says it has received over 200 complaints that troops are being told war with Iran is meant to accelerate βArmageddon.β
Spring forward... Fall back... whatever.
Can we just pick ONE & stick with it once & for ALL?!!! β°
the president has no idea what he has set in motion. none.

This is a bs βapologyβ from Fox. They claim it was βinadvertentβ - a lie. They aired old footage because they didnβt want to show Trump wearing his campaign hat during the ceremony. Then in this statement they STILL donβt show the correct footage of Trump. bsky.app/profile/aaro...
Thank you! @marcelias.bsky.social
Quick reminder: Epstein.
Trump multiple times just today has said the country is at war. War can only be declared by Congress, and Iran posed no imminent threat. What Trump is doing there is a textbook illegal war and impeachable offense β if we still had a Congress.
There are a lot of posts out there with the close-up visual of Markwayne Mullin on January 6, but this is a better perspective.
Heβs not protecting others; heβs protecting himself and hiding. You can see plenty of people at the entry door, ready to take on the insurrectionists, but not Markwayne.
Thank you Carl π

The Trump administration has released a proposal to overhaul the rules that govern federal layoffs a move that would make it easier to carry out sweeping arbitrary terminations across agencies.
White House: the witnessβsΒ allegations are βcompletely baselessβ and βbacked by zero credible evidence.β
Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.
Oh.
βWe have agreedβ β how nice of them! Surely theyβre doing this work pro bono right?

Waiting for the administration to say the spike in gas prices isn't actually a big deal because so many Americans are losing their jobs and won't have to drive to work anymore.
Oil up by $12 a barrel in less than 12 hours.
Gas prices skyrocketing.
Almost 100,000 jobs lost last month.
Another war in the Middle East.
Are we great again yet?
Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.
Russia helps Iran track American forces.
And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.
Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:
