As our nation girds for possible Iranian terrorist attacks, this is the person Trump put in charge of terrorism prevention. 22 years old. Recent work experience: landscaping/grocery clerk. Never worked a day in counter-terrorism. But heâs a BIG Trump fan. So he got the job.

Terrific context and analysis by @tparsi on @zeteo_news on the US war on Iran.
âDonald Trump has guaranteed that Iran will be a nuclear weapons state in 5 to 10 years from now.â Iranian writer @tparsi tells @mehdirhasan that US bombing of Iran would push Tehran toward developing nuclear weapons. Watch the full conversation: https://t.co/KuGMKjFVs8

The Presidentâs disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers. He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations. It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

Trump launching us into war with Iran is a flagrant abuse of power and an impeachable offense. The Framers were clear with the War Powers Clause: only Congress could take the nation into war. He must be impeached and removed from office. @FSFP

Impeach Trump. Sign the petition NOW to defend democracy and demand accountability! He is disqualified from office, and has violated the U.S. Constitution.

BREAKING: Trumpâs VA just gave doctors the green light to refuse treatment to veterans who are Democrats or unmarried. Yesâyou read that right. Serve your country, risk your life, and when you come home, your care depends on your politics and marital status.

At least 38 million people have been displaced by the U.S. post-9/11 wars. That is more than those displaced by any war or disaster since the start of the 20th century, except for World War II. [1/3]

NEW: The Trump administration deploying tanks and troops from LA to DC is a wake up call. The U.S. public can no longer afford to ignore the lethal consequences of militarism on our democracy. IPS scholar @christineahn and Leslie Cagan in @commondreams:

More journalists killed in Gaza than World War 1, World War 2, Vietnam, Yugoslavia & Afghanistan combined
Al Jazeera has published the names of every journalist killed since Oct 7th. 231 Palestinian journalists have been slaughtered in Gaza. A whole generation of reporters wiped out while many of their colleagues in the West simply shrugged.
