The Artemis II mission cost the same as 2 days of Trump’s war in Iran. I want more Artemis, less needless war.

Right now, the conversation isn’t about nuclear programs, or free and fair elections in Iran. It's about reopening a body of water that was open before this war started. Chalk that up as a win for Tehran.

The Lego videos are funny. The situation is not. A theocracy that blocks its own people's access to the internet is currently running circles around the United States in the information space of an active conflict. That does not happen by accident.

Trump has proposed sweeping budget cuts to security agencies that would undermine the integrity of our country’s elections.

This is just the latest in what Trump has been boasting for months: that he intends to intervene in and “take over” elections.

Hey Dems, if you want to reach young men, maybe tell them that, if they allow Republicans to keep Congress, there's a non-zero chance they will die losing a war that Trump started for no reason.

Everybody knows now that is a very real possibility, and you need show them where you stand on it.

The Iranian dictatorship is still in place.

Iran still has enriched uranium.

The Strait of Hormuz no longer has free passage.

Sanctions and tariffs on Irans despotic regime are going to be lifted.

And some are calling this a victory?

The people of Iran aren’t free. Iran can now charge tolls. The nuclear material sits EXACTLY where it did, in the same amount, since June. The regime is still in place with a younger ayatollah. Iran still was launching missiles, now with more money to rebuild.

NSF funded research has benefited all of humanity and paid for itself millions of times over here in the US. Their budget will now be the same as 2 days of stupid war in Iran costs. Trump continues to destroy what has actually made America superlative.

In the first six months of Trump’s 2nd term, the DOJ quietly closed more than 23,000 criminal cases—including hundreds of investigations into terrorism, fraud, and drug trafficking. How does that make us more safe?

Focus on the claim that Stephen Miller is implicated in Alex Pretti's murder.

The November 4 Alexanderplatz demonstration in East Berlin right before the Berlin Wall fell was somewhere between 500K & 1 million people (i.e., 3-6% of the population). 2.5% is an <enormous> amount of Americans in the streets.

In what world is it okay for the Defense Secretary to make multi-million dollar investments in defense companies:
a) Ever;
b) In the run-up to starting a war in the Middle East

FT has the scoop: www.ft.com/content/744ea8dc-6d93-4fe9-a5e3-36de4f5d06db?syn-25a6b1a6=1

In a functional democracy, he would offer his resignation tonight.

It’s hard to overstate how immoral and wrong it is that Trump is likely sending American soldiers into harm’s way for no good reason. Every American who voted for this man to lead America have aided and abetted this tragic mistake.

Four-byline alert: 🚨

“.. A broker for Pete Hegseth, the US defence secretary, attempted to make a big investment in major defence companies in the weeks leading up to the US-Israeli attack on Iran, according to three people familiar with the matter.”

A large rally in opposition to the government has value in and of itself. There's ample literature on this: signaling, agenda-setting, preference falsification. Historical examples abound; '63 march on DC and '68 protests in France were dismissed by many at the time as counterproductive farces.

Genuinely hard to overstate how much of a strategic defeat it would be for the United States if the war ends with effective Iranian control of the Strait.

1/ It's not just that unilaterally paying TSA agents is illegal.

It's that Trump has now repeatedly undermined the core of the congressional power of the purse. He's not spending money that has been appropriated by law (impoundments) and he's spending money that has not been appropriated.

Climate/renewables arguments aside, this is the president's administration paying a foreign company to invest in states where Republicans are in charge rather than ones where Democrats are in charge -- using tax dollars to punish people who didn't vote for his party.

A judge has allowed the DOGE deposition videos back online. After originally ruling plaintiffs had to "claw back" the videos and them being removed from YouTube, the judge has now said the videos fall "squarely within that core public interest." Now back on YouTube
