Can you imagine - in the midst of a government shutdown - if Barrack Hussein Obama had torn down a third of the White House in order to build a $300,000,000 ballroom funded from billionaire oligarchs?

Yeah, me neither.

AOC is one of only a few dissenting voices in our political system. Again, legislators are moving goalposts farther towards authoritarianism while ignoring CITIZENS.

Our system of government has turned into another grift and opportunity for corporations to profit at the expense of YOUR RIGHTS. ⚠️
If people really find this to be such an easy conclusion, then Congressional authority should be easy to get.

So why don’t they insist on a vote?

They know this isn’t “progressive” resistance. They want to marginalize it as such because on top of this war being ILLEGAL, it’s also deeply unpopular.
CNN’s Van Jones urges “progressives” to “get on board” with bombing Iran:

“I think progressives underestimate how dangerous Iran is. Iran is not a normal country,” he said on air.

Jones did not share whether he considers Israel—an apartheid state currently committing genocide—a “normal country.”

Hear that? Thats the sound of the goalposts moving yet again. Tomorrow, you’ll see legislators tripping over themselves to defend this illegal act of war.

Congress had better wake up, or they will soon find the legislative branch abdicated of any semblance of power or dignity.

We need leaders.

For those of you keeping score at home: Trump withdrew from the Iran Nuclear deal, and is now using progress on Iran’s nuclear program as justification for attacking a sovereign country without congressional approval to support a country that has been conducting genocide on a different population.

Marco Rubio on Rumeysa Ozturk: "We revoked her visa ... once you've lost your visa, you're no longer legally in the United States ... if you come into the US as a visitor and create a ruckus for us, we don't want it. We don't want it in our country. Go back and do it in your country."

NEW: An @npr.org review of thousands of pages of records across more than a dozen federal lawsuits finds an alarming pattern across agencies, where DOGE has given conflicting information about what data it has accessed, who has that access, and most importantly — why. w/@jennamclaughlin.bsky.social
DOGE says it needs to know the government's most sensitive data, but can't say why
DOGE staffers have skirted privacy laws, training and security protocols to gain virtually unfettered access to financial and personal information stored in siloed government databases.

American war planning usually takes place in highly secure facilities. But the Trump administration planned its strikes on the Houthis using a group chat—and accidentally included The Atlantic’s editor in chief, @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social. theatln.tc/AmsjsuT6
