    When is the question about how the candidates will cut spending on war so they don't "bankrupt America?"

    But don't racialize poverty! We know that proportionately, more black and brown folks are in poverty, but in raw numbers, more white people are in poverty.

    It’s journalistic malpractice to continually ask how we are going to pay for things we need to live—like healthcare, housing, food, & education—yet continually ignore how we are going to pay for things that destroy—like war.

    We have a plan to cut $300 billion from the Pentagon, war and corporate war profiteers to fund Medicare for All.

    Right here in 2020: still debating the Iraq war, and still talking about who does or doesn’t think a woman could win the presidency (or, the electoral college).

    As the Pentagon budget towers ever higher, the U.S. has "a foreign policy that is increasingly synonymous with war." Preventing wars shouldn't end with Iran. We need to stop our pointless world domination altogether, writes our : via

    No one should say we can’t afford the things we need, and no one should say we must pay for endless war. My new piece.

    For months, we've been saying that we could fund plans like by cutting over $300 billion from the military budget. Now, here it is: The breakdown of exactly what could be cut (with colorful graphics). (1/9) via

    We have to say it again & again & again. There can be no conversation about immigration from Central America without interrogating the role that the history of US imperialism has played in destabilizing the social, economic, & political foundations of those countries. Period.

    Think they’ll ask about this in tonight’s debate? It’s time for some more serious debate about our foreign policy.

    A Pentagon study has found that, since the military founded AFRICOM, violence in Africa—far from decreasing—has spiked. This is the U.S. military reporting the failure of its own project. It's past time to . /

    Thank you. This —>

    Hey , you don't improve or safeguard human rights, including the rights of women, by militarily occupying another nation and help perpetuate massive violence against civilians, including women. It has always been a lie that we're in Afghanistan for women's rights.

    This blows me away. We need people to understand just how badly we’re blowing it, what could have been, and what we need to do differently starting now (or in 2020, whichever comes first).

    "How would you stand up to China?" How about how would we find some common ground with China to solve problems that threaten the whole world, like climate change?

    The Senate steamrolled ahead today with a whopping $750 billion version of the National Defense Authorization Act (), which sets the Pentagon budget. Just months ago, President Trump said the military's current $716 billion was "crazy."
