The cost of your flight went up because you searched for it twice. Your rideshare costs more because your phone battery is dying. This is surveillance pricing – corporations using your own data and behaviors against you. In the US Senate, I’ve got a plan to ban it.

Sad to see @ChrisMurphyCT echoing false neocon narratives about Iran's threat to US "The minute they stop bombing... It will only take a handful of months to reconstitute that threat" This closes space for a diplomatic deal to end the war and bolsters case for war in future

a. Trump isn't announcing a pause on strikes. He's saying he's postponing a possible war crime - strikes on Iran's civilian energy infrastructure. b. Also, this isn't a message to Iran. It's a panicky message to the markets: "No war escalation until markets close on Friday".

Important to note that this was just a vote to have chapter-wide deliberation about whether to endorse for mayor. It's very disappointing that Groundwork and others whipped against letting our members decide. I think they knew which way members would have went if given a chance.

My first story for L.A. Material is a behind-the-scenes account of the week that remade the L.A. mayoral race — how the city’s political class scrambled to marshal an alternative to Mayor Karen Bass, and ended up w a challenger no one saw coming. lamaterial.com/p/five-days-th…




SCOOP: The Pentagon asked the White House today for more than *$200 billion* for the Iran war supplemental, sources say Some White House aides think Congress won't support b/c it's so big Will tee up giant battle in Congress






The oil market has fragmented: Oil is now trading for $150/bbl in Asia (except the occasional sanctioned Iranian tanker) where demand destruction has started. China and India most pressured. Meanwhile it is still $100 in the US


After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.
