The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.

Rather than blaming non-voters for what Trump is doing, liberals should be attacking "Vote Blue No Matter Who" Dems that have spent decades voting for politicians that support funding the police, ICE, and the military industrial complex. Trump wouldn't be able to do any of this without them.

“It is not as if the world has not long been one in which vast numbers live in dystopian depredation. The horizon is more visible now to many who had thought themselves insulated, if they thought about it at all. And dystopia for some is utopia for others. We live in a utopia: it just isn’t ours.”
