A healthy society doesn't put combination codes on its restrooms. Why? Because a healthy society doesn't have thousands of people desperately roaming its streets, whether unemployed, homeless, mentally ill, or addicted to drugs. 1/

Trump's war on Iran is also an act of war against the American people. Every U.S. dollar spent to bomb and kill civilians across Iran and the Middle East is also a dollar stolen from the housing, health care, and food that millions of people across the U.S. depend on to live.
