Good morning, Jack. A few days ago, twitter suspended our

National Co-Director Ariel Gold, and we are not sure why. Ariel is a strong advocate for women & girls and campaigns to end militarism. I'd appreciate it if you would pls restore her account. Thank you.

Anyone who is complicit in this genocide should be ostracized, met with people turning their backs, shunning them at every opportunity.
Congrats

for choosing

Here's a photo from 2004 when

had the NYPD arrest 1800 anti-war protesters during the GOP convention. They were taken to a toxic hell hole and caged past the legal limit, so the protesters sued & NYC settled for $18 million.

You want regime change? So Putin falls (unlikely) & Russia collapses (your goal), then? Russia's 6,000 warheads fall into the hands of competing factions or worse. Stop escalating this war on

It's absurd and naive for any Democrat to blame Avenatti and Swetnick for the Republicans confirming Kav--They were going to do so from the get---the guy could have raped us all on Broadway and still been confirmed.
@DavidHarrisAJC
Leave Michael Che alone. Israel is not vaccinating the millions of Palestinians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem & Gaza--all of which is ultimately under Israeli control. As a Jewish woman of conscience, I find this medical apartheid appalling.

@POTUS
If weapons were the answer, war in the Donbas would have ended long ago & we wouldn't be holding our breath in fear of a showdown between the most heavily armed nuclear nations. Get to the negotiating table, Joe, and, as much as it hurts, give Putin an off ramp.

Defense means resisting an attack. It’s not a “defense” budget when the US is invading and bombing countries on the other side of the world. We spend $2,000,000,000 a day on empire.

This man is going to get us all killed. When will you, Bernie & Liz, take to the floor of Congress to demand a ceasefire and diplomatic solution? We are on the path to WWIII.
I spoke to all of Ukraine’s Ambassadors during their annual conference. My message to them was simple: Wherever you’re working to build support for Ukraine’s sovereignty, territorial independence, and democracy, you have a partner in the United States. Count on us.
If I get one more email telling me to vote for

Bernie. He's one of the few Dems in the senate who voted against the 700-trillion dollar military budget. He connects the dots between the money we spend on war preparedness and the money we seemingly don't have for domestic needs.

@SenBlumenthal
Rather than invoke Article V to blow up the world, the US should withdraw its nuclear weapons from Germany, Italy, Belgium, Turkey, the Netherlands & dismantle those missile bases in Romania & Poland. De-escalation, not escalation, is the path to peace.

The stock market does not speak to working class Americans, but to those with enough dispensable income to invest. Trickle down theory failed before and, I fear, will fail again as CEO's just buy up more shares of their own stock with their increased profits.

You are determined to force this man on the American people—just the way Kavanaugh allegedly forced himself on Ford —but there will be tremendous political blowback and when the Dems retake Congress, they can impeach Kavanaugh for bad behavior.
