Jesus Christ this graph. Total and utter political failure.
In a more serious country, unilaterally withdrawing from the JCPOA would have immediately ended Trump's first presidency & destroyed the GOP's reputation on national security policy for a generation 🧐

🚨Stephen Miller gets his way. Just a few days after Ag. Sec. Rollins convinced Trump to briefly back down, quotas and indiscriminate raids are back.
Farms, restaurants, and hotels are now subject to ICE raids again, with intense pressure on ICE to hit 3,000 arrests a day. Miller remains in charge.

Any democratic nation that seeks to avoid its “negative history” rather than to learn from it will not be a real democracy very long

For MAGA influencers (both in and out of office), right-wing violence doesn't exist. When those on the right commit it, they are either secretly liberal (Minnesota shooter), it wasn’t actually violence (Jan. 6 “tourists”) or their victims deserved what they got (the hammer attack on Paul Pelosi).

Just met this man at the No Kings protest in Philly: Dan O’Neill.
Dan is an evangelical Christian, but says recently left a church bc its members were so uncritically supportive of Trump.
He says: “I have read the Bible recently, and everything I read in there, (Trump) is doing the opposite of.”
