The ceasefire agreement with Iran with the opening of the Strait of Hormuz is welcome news. Democrats should support it. I am glad it includes a provision for mutual respect of the US & Iran's sovereignty so we do not launch a dumb war of choice again.
The war was a costly lesson for the US. As expected, Trump failed to bring about regime change. The terms seem no better than what Obama secured under the JCPOA nearly a decade ago. America lost 14 precious service members and wasted billions of dollars on this foolish endeavor.
But today, we can be relieved that gas and food costs will start coming down for Americans. And that no more American or civilian lives will be lost.
It also shows that when the Congress votes to end war --as we did last week -- it can be a wake up call for the President to listen to the anti-war sentiments of the American people.
The funniest part about the world rallying behind Zoran Mamdani is that he’s literally just doing his job, but by doing so shows us that every other politician is just lining their pockets & leaving us to rot 😭
If 9 Israelis had been burnt alive yesterday, they’d have called it a barbaric & savage antisemitic massacre.
When Israel burns alive 9 Palestinians to death, they call it a ceasefire.

This will ruin your day, perhaps your summer, or even the rest of your life.
But you need to listen to it. You need to know the crimes that are done in your name and with your tax money.
A British surgeon in Gaza testifies that Israeli soldiers used Palestinian children as target practice. One day, they would shoot the children in the testicles, and on other days, in their necks.
They were practicing their shooting on children.
Dear America,
Our tax dollars, military, intelligence, and majority of elected leaders are enabling this.
THIS.
Are you too racist, ignorant, or cold hearted to demand THIS to stop?
Trump, with one rash decision, egged on by Netanyahu, has severely diminished American power abroad, dealt a blow to Israel, and dramatically ramped up the clean energy transition.
China and Iran emerge empowered and Trump’s own approval rating is in the low 30s.
Now the same people who urged him to get into this mess are urging him to keep it going.
🇮🇱 REPORTER: You labeled Israel as committing genocide.
TUCKER CARLSON: You're more upset by how I describe the murder of children than you are at the murder of children, which says a lot.
If you want to understand why so many people - leftists, Arabs, Muslims, antiwar folks - like and promote Tucker Carlson right now - despite his reprehensible views on plenty of other issues - it’s because he says stuff like this, which most others in the US media refuse to.
Israeli citizen Miriam Adelson bought the Dallas Mavericks for $3.5 billion; now she’s buying politicians. She’s spending millions in Kentucky to buy Ed Gallrein, my primary opponent, a Congressional seat in Kentucky. Why? Because I won’t vote to send your tax dollars overseas.
Among the reasons most EU states and EU institutions are quiet about Israel's daily slaughter of civilians in the region, is that they do not care: Lebanese, Palestinian, Iranian lives are disposable, their loss negligible.
And this is so wrong.
Immoral.
Illegal.
Irresponsible.
This is beyond horrifying.
New data shows Israel has killed over 680,000 Palestinians in Gaza.
Among them:
• 380,000 infants under 5
• 99,000 children over 5
That’s 479,000 children murdered by Israel.
Israel isn’t “defending itself.”
It is wiping out Palestinian life.
Mehdi Hasan asked an Israeli lawyer if he was shocked by the NYT's piece on Israeli soldiers raping Palestinian detainees.
His answer? 'Of course not.'
Not because it's false. Because it's old news. Al Jazeera reported it in 2024. He testified about it in 2025. B'Tselem issued reports. Even Israel's own public defender wrote about the torture.
Rape by dogs. Women shackled to metal tables for two days. Men raped three times-after being hospitalized. Children threatened with sexual abuse.
Palestinians have been saying this for years. So what's new? Nothing. Except the New York Times finally published it.
Fact: He traveled there for his cooking show & when they tried to block this one episode, he said he would pull his entire show from the network & this was the first time the world ever saw behind the walls in Gaza 2013
People think the biggest issue with Israel is their war crimes. That's obviously fair, given how atrocious the genocide and all their atrocities have been.
But there is second giant problem as well - American sovereignty. Their lobby gives money to 94% of Congress, they completely bully our national media into compliance and they have robbed us of our sovereignty here. No matter who we elect, they seem to serve Israel.
And then our media tells us that's normal. That's not normal! It's weird how our media and politicians all grovel to the same country. That's nowhere near normal.
As an American, that bothers me to my core. The whole point of this country is indepedence and freedom. It feels like they've taken that from us. And I can't stand it.
