Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said that Trump’s decision to drop the bombs in Iran “is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”
“He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations,” she added.

Why is it that this country always has endless money for war but not for housing? Bombs but not books? Missiles but not Medicaid? Our priorities are not just backward — they're being driven by wealthy war hawks hellbent on padding their pockets.

76% of politically motivated shootings and extremist-related killings in the U.S. over the past decade were of a right-wing nature.
Left-wing motivated shootings were roughly 3%.
So, both sides do it.
