Yes, @RealDonaldTrump is playing chicken with a nuclear weapons state, for the first time since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. We need a @Snowden inside to expose Top Secret estimates of millions of lives at risk.
As we flirt with nuclear war for the first time in decades, @DanielEllsberg releases perhaps the most authoritative work ever produced on the subject (he helped write the plans!). amazon.com/Doomsday-Machine-…

NOTHING IN THE WORLD is more urgent than stopping @RealDonaldTrump from responding to a North Korean missile test, or even warhead test, with an armed attack, assuring catastrophic war with this nuclear-armed state. goo.gl/ajRZWs

How to get Trump to read this?
Fascinating @rickperlstein interview with @DanielEllsberg, who has a very timely book out December 5th about his time as a nuclear war planner.
@rickperlstein calls it "a groundbreaking and nightmare-inducing account of how the whole mad system works."
