Farage always boasts that he has a “special” relationship with Trump, he’s able to listen and advise, and reassure his demented Orange buddy that everything’s allright and Nigel is there for him. Sickening sycophant Farage.

For decades, Israel has justified the apartheid, subjugation and mass murder of Palestinians by declaring them all “terrorists” without any proof, due process or trial.

Sound familiar?

Ukraine is quietly seeking US Tomahawk missiles, Kyiv Post reports. The campaign is led by Dan Rice, who met Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and urged limited deliveries via a ground launch system. Officials reportedly disagree on whether this would help or hurt diplomacy. #Ukraine

I’m glad that voters in polls are showing that they now remember why they hated Trump. One of our perpetual political problems in this country is amnesia.

President #Zelenskyy

"russia launched 165 drones overnight, with over 50 targeting Odesa, damaging residential buildings, a church, and energy facilities.

Dozens, including children, were injured. Other regions (Lviv, Dnipro, Mykolaiv, Sumy, Kharkiv) also faced attacks on critical infrastructure.

Trump just hiked tariffs on South Korea because their legislature hasn’t approved his deal yet.

That’s not trade policy, it’s a timer.
Vote on his schedule or pay a penalty.

Allies don’t comply to that. They build exits.

Ban on deporting U.S. citizens removed from DHS funding bill, congresswoman warns
YouTube video by MS NOW Ban on deporting U.S. citizens removed from DHS funding bill, congresswoman warns

The US House of Representatives, at the request of Stephen Miller, removed wording in that bill that would prevent ICE from arresting and deporting USA Citizens.
The bill that is in the Senate now would give ICE the authority to arrest and deport USA citizens.

Iowa farmer: 27% of farmers across this country are on the ACA—and they’re looking at significant increases. It’s not uncommon to see premiums quadruple. There are farmers out there who are deciding to go without health insurance because of that.

I think both calling for abolishing ICE is fine and casting what ICE is doing as inherent to immigration enforcement is an extremely bad idea because if you frame the choice as "open borders or this" lots of people will choose this. It also just isn't true, Canada has borders and IRCC don't do this

Congress do your jobs. Fight for us or else. This isn't a request, it's a demand. You have congressional oversight authority afforded to you by our Constitution. Anyone preventing you from that authority is a traitor to the constitution and should be tried as such. The penalty for treason is death.

There's this thing called the "Credibility Gap" where the government is allowed to tell half truths and lies, that's what the Trump Regime is using to prove their legality in killing Americans or anyone else.
