They will use dissent against the war to arrest people. They will charge people with aiding the enemies of the US and terrorist organizations simply for speaking up.
A war on Iran won’t only occur in Iran.

There will be claims of imminent reprisal attacks to assault the freedoms of our Muslim neighbors, no matter how absurd or ignorant. There will be persecution & deportation attempts, esp vs the pro-Palestine movement.

Will there be solidarity vs all this?
Of course he was going to bomb Iran.

Is there an antiwar party in the U.S.?

Do what you need to do to maintain your internal peace. Hold the core of your spirit. Pray for peace. Commit yourself to justice. And just rest.

It's sort of fascinating how ALL OF THIS lawless tyranny is happening, all around us at all times, and never once have a gang of Second Amendment enthusiasts showed up with their God-given rifles to fend off the secret police. Not once. When they've been driven off it's been by the unarmed.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

Co-sign here: we're very much in uncharted water here, for sure. Don't buy the punditry and facile predictions, bad, good, or otherwise 👇
I see many folks making many uncaveated claims about what happens next.

I also see the best and most seasoned experts admitting that they don’t know what’s coming—and advising us not to buy what such fully confident pundits are selling.

Trust the latter view. We’re in largely uncharted territory.

I truly do not think that if Trump has campaign on “if I win, we will bomb Iran” that he would have won.

Cannot express how big the disconnect is between what Angelenos are seeing/saying to each other right now and what delusional rabid conservatives are barking online. I know it's par for the course, but this is another level.

On Saturday, more than 1,800 rallies will take place—peaceful, organized, and united. From major cities to small towns, we’ll rise together and say: We reject political violence. We reject fear as governance. We reject the myth that only some deserve freedom. Join us: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Not clear if job cutting has hamstrung the bureaucracy or if more is at play here. But unless they get new SGEs they can't serve on #ACIP www.statnews.com/2025/06/08/c...

Trump can’t stand to be humiliated. This is what's driving his dictatorial moves.

But he will overreach. He already has. And this overreach will ultimately be his undoing.

As long as we keep our heads — and engage in peaceful civil disobedience.

Be strong. Be safe.

Friends. We are being hammered from every side with bad news. It’s easy to give in to fear and powerlessness. But we are not alone and we do have tools. We must use them while we have them: call your elected, show up in offices, talk to media, boycott, go to protests. We must fight back. links 👇
