In just two weeks, we’ve spent more on Trump’s reckless war with Iran than we spend each year on housing homeless veterans, helping seniors heat their homes, giving kids free school breakfasts, or extending healthcare tax credits.
How the hell is that “America First?!”

Trump’s appointed counterterrorism director—who virtually every Republican voted to confirm—just resigned and admitted there was no imminent threat.
Trump lied, and American troops died.
END THIS WAR NOW.
As if you think he couldn’t reach a new low, Trump is now fundraising off dead American soldiers. It’s one of the most depraved things I’ve ever seen in American politics.
Wow. Please send him out on the campaign trail to explain to American consumers why they are the "last" of this administration's concerns.
Hey Speaker Johnson: Muslim Americans are not a “serious issue.”
This hateful trash coming from the GOP has no place in America or modern society.
Should we spend $22 BILLION on another illegal war in the Middle East—or on building 100,000 affordable housing units in America?
Trump chose an illegal war. What would you choose?
It’s sickening that Trump seems to relish causing suffering and death in other countries, from Venezuela to Iran to Cuba.
Our 60+ year embargo of Cuba is a disaster. It serves no purpose but to exploit everyday Cubans and use them, politically, in the most cruel, inhumane way.
It’s day 16 of Trump’s reckless war of choice with Iran, and we’ve already spent $22 BILLION. That could build almost 100,000 affordable housing units in America.
The American People want a home they can afford, not another costly, endless quagmire in the Middle East.
By the way—we won’t forget the Epstein Files, or that the president continues protecting a global child sex abuse ring, and is himself accused in those files of being a child sex predator.
Jimmy Lai should be free, not sitting in a Hong Kong jail. I stand with Sebastian and Claire Lai in calling for their father to be given his freedom. Journalism is not a crime; China must respect this right per the ICCPR.
In under 2 weeks, Trump has blown $19 BILLION on his reckless Iran War. That’s 2x what we spend each year on preventing infectious diseases in the U.S.
He’s enriching his billionaire Big Oil and Defense Contractor donors instead of keeping America healthy. So much for MAHA.
I’m sure the billions of dollars he pockets from his defense contracts with the Pentagon have nothing at all to do with shilling for Trump’s illegal war. He sure seems to support regime change as long as he’s making money off it. Pathetic.
My full statement celebrating Paki's life and legacy here:
Paki Wieland was an incredible leader. She was a peacemaker in our community, and a fierce advocate for human rights and human dignity at home and around the world.
I’m heartbroken to learn that another 6 American service members have lost their lives in the Iran War. Lisa and I send our deepest condolences to their friends, family, and loved ones.
This reckless conflict must end.
Great to be at @sxswedu.com to talk about how I’m fighting to #EndHungerNow in every school across the country. If you missed it, you can watch my panel “Feeding Kids Like we Give a Damn” here:
Remember: Trump bombed an elementary school full of kids AFTER Pete Hegseth gutted the Pentagon's civilian harm prevention office.
First they lied and blamed Iran. Now our military admits it was a mistake.
FIRE Hegseth.
DEMAND an independent investigation.
END THIS WAR!
7 brave American soldiers are dead, 140 are seriously wounded, it’s costing a billion dollars a day, gas prices are soaring…
And Trump’s White House thinks it’s all a game.
There is no place for this vile hate in America or anywhere in civilized society. We must all stand against & condemn antisemitism, hate, and violence in the strongest terms.
