For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from: 

-Sinking poll numbers
-A devastating (and unpopular) budget bill
-Harmful trade wars 
-Unleashing the military on American soil
-Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism

We must remain on high alert.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant.

This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.
Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.

Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

Reminder that our Constitution guarantees due process to ALL persons — not just citizens — and enshrines habeas corpus as a fundamental right.

Either everyone has due process — or no one does.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers.

That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

Abolish ICE
ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

Cutting health care and food stamps is wrong.

But that isn't the last word: now the bill heads to the Senate. Our nation is at its best when we stand up for those in need and for what is right. It’s time to remind our Senators why Americans are against this cruelty, and demand they do better.

U.S. ECONOMY SHRINKS UNDER TRUMP

Just months into Trump’s return to office, the U.S. economy has already reversed course—shrinking by 0.3% in the first quarter of 2025.

That’s a stark contrast from the 2.4% growth rate during President Biden’s final months.

Canada’s Liberal party was trailing the Conservatives in support until Trump's reelection, his trade war and threats to annex Canada.

People saw the “threats that [Donald Trump] was making against Canada, that this was not a time to allow the Conservative Party” into power, says @parismarx.com.

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.
