If you want to understand what’s going on right now with the #Soleimani assassination and U.S. troop buildup in the Middle East, watch the movie “Wag the Dog” and replace the underage Firefly Girl with Nancy Pelosi. #Iraq #Iran #WagtheDog

A few hours ago, we upgraded our proxy war with Iran to an actual war with Iran. Congress has a duty to properly oversee these foreign policy escalations that will likely drag us into another endless war. #iraq #airstrikes

@PeteButtigieg told a room full of children that "the people who wrote the Constitution did not understand that slavery was a bad thing." QT @ThomasIsOnline: @keithellison It's just a great big bowl of nonsense, but he looks confident when saying that stuff https://t.co/7j45fHDlk9)

@PeteButtigieg The U.S. Constitution was ratified in 1789. At that point in time in history, freedom suits had been around for decades in Scotland, the abolitionist movement was a political force in the British Empire, and slavery was abolished in the French Empire (1794).
