The President does not have the authority to make this decision. There is no imminent threat to America from Iran. He cannot take this action without congressional authorization.
I will not vote to give him that authority, and I likely represent the majority of Congress.

Trump is weighing whether to join Israel in striking Iran’s underground Fordow nuclear site, a target only U.S. B-2 bombers with bunker busters can destroy, NYT reports.

We got internal cables, notes and other records that show how U.S. diplomats have intervened on behalf of Starlink in at least four other developing nations. All while the U.S. has withdrawn foreign aid from those same countries.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
