Violent clashes between protesters and security forces in Pakistan’s southern port city of Karachi and in the country’s north left at least 22 people dead and more than 120 others injured as demonstrators supportive of the Iranian government attempted to storm a U.S. Consulate on Sunday, authorities said.

In the north of the country, demonstrators attacked U.N. and government offices.

The violence came after the United States and Israel attacked Iran, killing its Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Police and officials at a hospital in Karachi said that at least 50 people were also wounded in the clashes and some of them were in critical condition.

      Yes. Most of you still don’t get it which is why Democrats keep losing to Donald Trump.

          You can keep repeating the same mistakes expecting different results and Republicans will continue to win elections. Or, you can learn from your mistakes and do something differently. Democrats use social issues to distract from fiscal ones, and people like you fall for it consistently.

          Stop being part of the problem if you genuinely want to stop Republicans. What you’re currently doing is not working.

            I dont have to repeat shit. It took just one bad move on the part of the sitouts to get us here. So while youre waiting on your ideal progressive candidate, the adults are trying to get things back to a manageable state. Then youre welcome to talk to me about changing stuff. Otherwise stfu or bend over and take trump like everyone else.

                  I wouldn’t vote for him in the primary. But if Newsome wins the primary, I will absolutely hold my nose and vote for him, just like I did with Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. To vote any other way, come Nov 2028, is to guarantee 4 more R years, and if you would do differently you’re not a serious person.
