In a political career defined by grotesque statements, this president’s horrifying, illegal, and genocidal threat this morning is among the most dangerous and appalling. You can’t shout “fire” in a crowded theater and a president cannot be allowed to threaten genocide with the United States military. Threats of war crimes and disregard for human life must be met with accountability under the law. Trump must go—and Republicans, whether in the Cabinet or Congress, must join Democrats in using any and all constitutional powers at our collective disposal to end this illegal war and take the gun out of this madman’s hands.

Indeed, what kind of completely insane government would spend billions of dollars on weapons instead of their own people. Great point Marco.

The US taking the IDF strategy ("we're investigating" with no results to the investigation) cannot stand. Every one of those girls was as precious as our daughters.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Imagine what else $1 billion a day could pay for other than a pointless war.

This tragedy alone is reason enough why this war of choice should never have been waged.

I wish we lived in a world where I didn't feel constantly compelled to post this video, but until then here's Tony Benn speaking on war with clarity and moral conviction that you won't see from the evil people running the world today

To be clear about what this depicts: An immigration officer threw a woman onto the ground. Alex Pretti, a registered nurse on scene as a legal observer, is filming and goes to help the woman up. He is then pepper sprayed and thrown to the ground for no discernible reason. Many officer surround and assault him; one removes his firearm, which police say appears to have been legally registered. They then execute him with a hail of bullets. They are, objectively speaking, both cowards and criminals, while Pretti is what we teach people an American ought to be.

“These men risked their lives to speak with us.”

Every other problem is downstream from this problem.

We are fighting for the freedom to have time to build, to create, to love, and to live lives not of just survival, but of fulfillment and joy.

So much peace from Donald Trump: bombing Iran, bringing the war on terror to the war on drugs, creating the Department of War because "defense" isn't enough . . .

“We will never be forgiven for what we have helped make happen here. I think people are starting to realize that though.” — Graham Platner told Breaking Points, commenting on U.S.’s role in Israel’s genocide in Gaza. The 40-year-old oyster farmer and Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran is running for the U.S. Senate in Maine, seeking to unseat Republican Senator Susan Collins — one of the most reliable defenders of the apartheid regime.

"We are not weak - but the war has broken our bones, and the siege has hollowed out our stomachs" Read this moving account from an @Amnesty fieldworker in Gaza: amn.st/6017fylR7

In the wake of the Israel-Iran ceasefire, momentum is growing for a ceasefire in Gaza. On Friday, Trump said a truce between Israel and Hamas could happen “within the next week.” Even Israeli opposition leaders are now calling the war a dead end.🧵 apnews.com/article/israel…

What Eisenhower said over 70 years ago is even more true today.
