23 years ago tonight, in an Oval Office address, George W. Bush announced the start of the Iraq War.
4,492 American service members were killed in the years that followed. 32,292 were wounded.
At least 200,000 Iraqi civilians died. The humanitarian impact was immense.
America wasted 9 years and 3 trillion dollars on a war that never should have happened—a war predicated on a lie, pushed by warmongering neocon politicians, and paid for by everyday people.
Imagine what that $3 trillion could have bought here at home. Imagine the decade we could have spent focusing on America, our people, our place in the world. Imagine the lives our service members, stolen from us, would have lived. But instead, the president took us to war. Yet another costly quagmire in the Middle East.
I voted against the Iraq War. I knew the White House would lie to Members of Congress and voters alike to manufacture the pretext for a conflict—and they did.
Now, Iran is shaping up to be Iraq 2.0—new lies, new bloodthirsty politicians, still paid for by American families. Yesterday, we learned that Trump wants another $200 billion for his war. That's after Congress already gave the Pentagon more money than it even asked for in the budget.
Enough is enough. It is not too late to learn from the past. Stop this madness. Bring our troops home. End this war.

🇨🇳 🇨🇺 The average Cuban consumes 60kg of rice every year.
China just donated enough rice in ONE BATCH to feed all of Cuba for a whole month.

🇨🇺🤝🇨🇳 The first badge of the 60 thousand tons of rice offered by the People's Republic of China, sets sail towards #Cuba. In response to adversity, the solidarity of true friends prevails and demonstrates that #CubaIsNotAlone.

Cuba is blockaded. Sanctioned. Starved.
And still, they march. For themselves. For Palestine. For humanity.
60 years of embargo. 60 years of defiance.
Cubans know oppression. They know resistance. They know who their real friends are.
The streets of Havana speak for Gaza. For Iran. For everyone the empire ignores.
This is solidarity. Not performative. Not political. Just human.
Respect. Always. 🇨🇺🇵🇸
