Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike
It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

BREAKING: Democratic Sen. Cory Booker is imploring his party to fight back harder against President Trump, arguing that history will remember some for their “complicity” in “bending the knee” to him.

Who agrees?

That seems stupid. Harvard, for all its flaws, is standing up to fascism when so many others have folded & is fighting for principles of academic freedom & scientific research that we should all support and defend. Good for Harvard -& if they want to double down in their magazine, so much the better

👇🎯 We have four living presidents, & it is a national embarrassment that they are not, collectively & loudly, in front of microphones every day denouncing the fascism & calling for Congress to impeach/remove Trump to save the Republic.
Pretty amazing that a former president will sit quietly as one of his successors orders US troops into American cities and ships innocent people off to concentration camps—but feels compelled to speak up when a fellow HR nightmare is at risk of losing to another member of the same party.

A bit too late unfortunately. If and when Iran retaliates we will be forced to declare war. Best option is to impeach him and remove his entire cabinet.

The United States should not wage war against Iran.

Donald Trump’s bombing of Iran is unconstitutional. Only Congress can declare war — and the Senate must vote immediately to prevent an another endless war.

This is a horrific war of choice.

“The United States should not wage war against Iran.” A straightforward, easily expressed position that no Colorado Democrat has yet chosen to take.
