"He is openly threatening massive escalation in #Iran . #Congress needs to immediately vote to put a stop to this. It is a constitutional duty to vote on #warpowers ".

@amyklobuchar.com‬ on bsky:

Trump said today that “a whole civilization will die tonight.”

This is insane.

He is openly threatening massive escalation in Iran. Congress needs to immediately vote to put a stop to this. It is a constitutional duty to vote on war powers and both sides should demand this.

it looks bad for the us president to threaten genocide
Quote rom Mike's chapter: Free Economy. This chapter discusses the dismantling of 3 economic ideas : public corporations, public commons, & public utilities in 1960s & 1970s.

From #MikeKonczal : "The romance of #markets as self-correcting, dynamic, and resilient machines has made us forget about the crisises, collapse, and depressions that have always come with #capitalism. But it has also made us forget how necessary the legal and political environment is to creating #innovation and #Prosperity , and how vulnerable it becomes when the economy is treated as the mere property of owners.”

#MikeKonczal 's book about #Freedom for regular people is an excellent argument against the " #freemarket " making most people more free.
