Isn't it odd that the United States has enough money to suddenly run Venezuela, but not enough to run our own country?
There is always cash in the piggy bank for bombs to kill people, but never for healthcare to keep them alive.

If you aren't holding Republicans accountable for this, and demanding answers from them, then....

Happening now: several hundred people are pouring into Chicago's downtown Federal Plaza.
It's 25 degrees outside.
Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!"
Two protesters hold a large banner reading, "no war for Venezuela oil."

As a veteran, I say this:
All active duty troops involved in the illegal attack on Venezuela, and illegal abduction of the democratically elected President of that country, are by definition war criminals.
Commanders should have disobeyed illegal orders.
Troops should do so going forward.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.
This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

I'm so tired of the american military complex and the devastating real impacts of the lie of american exceptionalism.
I grieve that people in power who don't know peace in their own hearts spew their bitter bile upon the world. This is not the way to peace. War and violence are failures.

When people argue that renewable energy sources are too expensive, remember that we don’t invade countries to seize wind farms and there are no solar cartels. Fossil fuels have enormous geopolitical, public health, and climate externalities.

This war is completely illegitimate: 60% of Americans disapprove of going to war with Venezuela—74% disapprove war without Congressional approval. Only 19% are in favor.
The people oppose it. Our representatives didn’t approve it. Trump should be removed for this unconstitutional war.

Trump, who’s not been held accountable for his own corruption and crimes, is now ordering the U.S. to go into another country to capture a leader with zero transparency or Congressional oversight, for their crimes. Watch as the admin installs another dictator, just one friendlier to Trump.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Nothing says, “IMPEACH ME NOW!!!”, by starting an illegal war without Congressional authorization. Now the leaders of BOTH parties of Congress will have to answer for failing to stop ALL this madness BEFORE it ever happened. This hangs around the neck of BOTH Congress AND this illegitimate regime.

This war and extra-judicial kidnapping is patently illegal and unconstitutional. Political leaders on both sides must condemn it. It’s not about whether Maduro is a tyrant but whether the US is still governed by laws and the Constitution. As if this morning, we are clearly not.
