Everybody is also fully aware that weapons inspections were part of the deal Obama struck with Iran in 2015, which you tore up in 2018. These last 8 years without inspection are your fault, so there’s no credit or praise for reinstating them. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I’m old enough to remember that Obama didn’t have to give Iran $330bn in unfrozen assets, lifted sanctions, and a wealth fund in order to get them to agree to nuclear inspectors.

Good morning. We're starting the day angry. Exhibits on COVID-19 masking and health equity have been papered over at CDC's David J. Sencer Museum. This admin prefers to whitewash history. Let’s never stop telling the truth, defending evidence, and holding power accountable.
The image shows an exhibit in at the CDC museum that has been hidden by a sheet of white paper. A sign on the exhibit says "Pardon our Progress".

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Let us not forget, it was the same administration that reduced us to wearing trash bags as protective gear while we watched the hospital go up in flames around us during the pandemic that just murdered one of our own on the streets in broad daylight. As a nurse & as a person, I will never forgive. I will never forget. I will never back down. This was never about border control.
This is about total control.

important to note that the nazis didn’t have the technology and funding that the current US regime has now, though. yes, we need to keep fighting, but also be realistic about those facts and plan accordingly. not only do the majority of americans oppose this chaos, but so does everyone else.
