There was a flurry of lawmaker stock trades in the days around Trump's trade war announcements, including significant purchases as the US stock market tumbled April 7: 10 lawmakers (7Dem 3R) April 8: 11 lawmakers (7R 4Dem) April 9: Trump announces pause cnn.com/2025/06/11/pol…

To recap: Gaza is still being bombed, Palestinians starved. Putin is still trying to advance on Ukraine. We now have unfolding war between Iran and Israel. And stateside, the vulnerable are being spit on, our constitution is in tatters, and eggs cost more now than under Biden.

As Israel strikes Iran despite Trump's warning not to, it is the latest evidence that US and Israeli interests diverge. Time for Trump to stop unconditionally arming and funding the Israeli military (as if genocide in Gaza wasn't enough). theguardian.com/world/2025/jun…

“You and I will come to an end somewhere. The most beautiful poem in the world falls quiet,” 23-year-old Parnia Abbasi wrote, who was among 224 Iranians killed by Israeli strikes so far. Nick Paton Walsh takes a closer look at the toll on civilians across Iran.

Netanyahu started this war by attacking Iran. He assassinated Ali Shamkhani, Iran’s lead nuclear negotiator, deliberately sabotaging US-Iran nuclear negotiations. The US must not be dragged into another illegal Netanyahu war – either militarily or financially.

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.

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.

Signing on.

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.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant. This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.

No war with Iran.

Today I saw a shredded baby in Gaza for probably the 30th time in the past 20 months. Scores of starving people are killed lining up for scraps in a daily, sadistic mass killing ritual. This is what “normal counties” like Israel and the US do CNN tells us. Reality has no meaning.

Negativity and out-group animosity not only drive engagement with misinformation, they also boost engagement with *reliable* news sources. Great new pre-print by Alberto Acerbi and Kyle Fischer

New research shows that when Americans learn about members of Congress profiting from stock trades, they view lawmakers as more corrupt and less legitimate—and become less willing to follow the laws Congress passes. dlvr.it/TM6Cp3
