Donald Trump and his war cabinet just axed the Iran deal — in defiance of experts across the political spectrum. This reckless action puts us on a collision course to war with Iran. Demand Congress step in to stop Trump from dragging us into a terrible war with Iran.

Donald Trump's assassination of Iranian general Qassem Soleimani in Iraq is widely being viewed as an act of war. The American people do not want another chapter in the endless war in the Middle East with Iran, a nation of 80 million. Congress has not authorized war with Iran, nor assassination campaigns against Iranian generals and militias in Iraq. Yet Trump is running roughshod over Congress, blocking efforts to rein in his war authorities and taking steps that put the U.S. and Iran on a glidepath toward a messy, regional war. This is a 2002 moment for Congress, which must halt a reckless march to war. There are three steps Congress can take to prevent war with Iran: 1. Clarify that Trump does not have Congressional authorization for a disastrous war of choice with Iran. As tensions rise, this becomes all the more important. 2. Pass legislation to restrict the administration from further escalating its shadow war with Iran. 3. Demand Trump return to the negotiating table and invite in international mediators to forestall a rush to war.

Because I have friends that are Filipinos. They would love to come over here to visit. We Americans can go over to the Philippines without a visa. I think it would only be fair that the Filipino people can come to America without a visa as long as they have a passport.

As a Jew, I am appalled by Israel's brutal assault on non-violent protesters. I believe that the best hope for peace and security for all is for Israel to end its illegal siege of Gaza and its occupation of the West Bank.

Donald Trump just illegally bombed Syria, can’t wait to scrap the Iran deal, and is building more “usable” nukes. And he is literally building a war cabinet. Congress should be taking urgent steps to restrict the president’s war-making ability. Instead, Sens. Bob Corker and Tim Kaine’s proposed new Authorization for the Use of Military Force, or AUMF, would give Trump a blank check for worldwide, endless war. Tell the Senate: Vote no on the Corker-Kaine AUMF.

I along with millions of Americans are sick and tired of our war mongering government , spending trillions why our infrastructure crumbles and seniors go bankrupt dealing with escalating medical bills that our congress neglects to address .

I have been conducting extensive research. In this effort, I have found that the United States has been taking actions against other nations based on false, incomplete or inaccurate information. It is now time for the Citizens to take back control and end this atrocity.

Many decent Israeli teens—drafted into the Israeli army—have been ordered  to shoot into crowds of unarmed civilian Gazans protesters. Following these orders is a violation of international law and human rights, and might be punishable decades from now in light of the many Gazans who have already been killed or wounded, yet refusing an order from their superior officers would likely result in being jailed by the Israeli military. These soldiers should not be placed in this situation, and nonviolent protesters should not be met with lethal force. The massacre of unarmed Palestinians living in Gaza is a violation of international law and universally accepted standards of human rights. B'tselem, the Israeli Human Rights organization, has called upon Israelis to recognize that they have an obligation in International Law to reject the orders of superiors that tell them to shoot into crowds of unarmed civilians, even if a handful of those civilians take provocative actions like attempting to cut down the border fence or burn tires or even throw Molotov cocktails at the well-armed Israeli soldiers (though most of those killed and the thousands who have been wounded by Israeli guns in this latest outburst of violence did none of these things).

The people of Syria do not deserve to be bombed based on an allegation that Assad may be responsible for using chlorine gas on his own people. Regime change in the Middle East has proven disastrous in both Iraq and Libya. The United States must not commit further immoral attacks on innocent civilians. No war on the people of Syria.

The United States needs a secretary of state who will represent the best principles of our nation to the rest of the world. Mike Pompeo is not that person. He is a supporter of the Global Gag Rule, which hurts our ability to promote reproductive health around the world. He opposes LGBTQ rights. As the top recipient of campaign donations from the Koch brothers, he has stymied action on one of the world’s most serious security threats: global climate change. He supports the use of torture. He has longstanding relationships with anti-Muslim extremists. And his hawkish views on Iran and North Korea could very well lead us into another disastrous war. For all of these reasons, Mike Pompeo is absolutely the wrong choice to serve as the United States’ top diplomat, and the U.S. Senate should #StopPompeo by voting "no" on his nomination.

I believe that nuclear war is the greatest existential threat we face as human beings

Donald Trump is renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement. He wants a new NAFTA that would destroy our climate, let Big Ag roll back food warning labels and gut other public health and environmental regulations. In short, Trump’s NAFTA is a disaster for people and the planet. The only ones who will benefit are Big Ag and corporate polluters. So we need your help to stop this deal!
