There are possibly hundreds of people who worked on making a phantom humanitarian group that’s luring out the sick and starving of Gaza to be murdered. I’m not holding my breath on them facing the legal consequences they deserve, but they should be publicly identified
Outrageous. Yesterday the Trump admin announced $30M for GHF—the shadowy group at the center of the scheme to replace humanitarian aid orgs in Gaza w/ mercenaries, leading to the killing of starving civilians trying to collect food. Taxpayers shouldn't be paying for this outrage.…
Watch till the end. Listen to the outrage, despair, and yes, fear, in @PatinkinMandy's voice. That is the sound of a person with a conscious. All our voices should sound like this.
Today, a war criminal under indictment from the ICC will be welcomed to the White House. Trump, like Biden before him, has aided and abetted the extremist Netanyahu government as it has systematically killed and starved civilians in Gaza. It is a shameful day in America.
New on “A Closer Look Back,” @salgentile (Supervising Writer/Producer) and @EmilyErotas (Supervising Producer) break down this week’s headlines — from the Iran strike to @BernieSanders on @joerogan’s podcast. Plus, behind-the-scenes stories from the making of #ACloserLook.…
On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park. New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.
I just watched Trump thank Netanyahu on television and say "we worked together as a team, perhaps better than any team has worked before." Sickening.
Iran: Weeks away from having nuclear weapons since 1995
I’m 62 years old, I live in Tampa, I eat corn and beef everyday, I always have a titleist hat on, and Iran is the biggest threat to my freedom
Any Democrat who supports this war with Iran needs to be primaried. Our generation grew up going through two multi trillion dollar wars we should have never been involved in. We are not fucking going back to that. If you think this is a good idea read a history book.
No war in Iran. It's time for every member to go on record. Are you with the neocons who led us into Iraq or do you stand with the American people? I am proud to co-lead this bipartisan War Powers Resolution with Rep. Massie that is privileged and must receive a vote.
This is not our war. But if it were, Congress must decide such matters according to our Constitution. I’m introducing a bipartisan War Powers Resolution tomorrow to prohibit our involvement. I invite all members of Congress to cosponsor this resolution.
Threatening an entire city of 10 million people, decrying the “waste of human life” from an offensive illegal war that he helped launch, and complaining about the lack of a deal that he blew up by starting that war. Not to mention Trump is the one who broke the ORIGINAL deal back…
Trump learned the hard way that you can't have it all, even if it's your birthday #ACloserLook
congrats to maga on smashing the neocon elites and the deep state
“Special thanks to our sponsor: Palantir”
I can’t begin to wrap my head around what a disaster the Trump 2.0 regime has been. In the first Trump admin there were occasionally things to appreciate. This one is nothing but death, destruction, criminality and chaos. Genocide in Gaza, batshit economics, DOGE destroying…
I would absolutely trust costco to do a better job managing air travel than the trump administration

I told Congress they're killing poor kids in Gaza by buying bombs, and they're paying for it by kicking poor kids off Medicaid in the US. This was the authorities' response.
