🖨️ Print Article

It’s bad enough that the Trump administration’s recently released Nuclear Posture Review makes the use of nuclear weapons more likely, said Greg Mello, of the Los Alamos Study Group. On top of that, “We don’t have any real, senior level, Democratic Party opposition to war,” said Mello. “Liberals and progressives have been manipulated to be the tacit allies of the military-industrial-complex in vilifying Russia.”
