The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences.
The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences.
The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.
"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

A perfect example of a self fulfilling prophecy:
Claim the country is a shithole for 4 straight years so that your followers are convinced it's true. Then, get elected President and proceed to turn the country into an actual shithole with your policies.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.

They are going to torch the VA while saying they are making it "efficient." Then when it collapses...privatize it. I waited six hours in my local suburban ER four months ago. The private system can't handle 10 million more patients dropped in its lap.
Trump appointees and DOGE evil munchkins think they can dismantle the VA in secret. They're in for a rude awakening because veterans don't sit idly by while their brothers and sisters are getting screwed. Their memo slashing 83K employees didn't last 24 hours. My latest: youtube.com/shorts/yez6W...
VA thinks they can screw veterans in secret....they're wrong!
