I want to walk you through why itโ€™s nearly certain Trumpโ€™s Iran War is going to be a massive, deadly, trillion dollar failure. And why you should be furious heโ€™s set us on this path.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

Itโ€™s so heartbreaking. It may be too much for her to realize she voted for the regime that ultimately murdered her son. ๐Ÿ’”

ICE is STILL in Minnesota and STILL terrorizing communities. Reporters that say otherwise are either uninformed (which....) or lazy (which... ) or just repeating regime lies (which... is also extremely bad).

People are still missing, people are and will be traumatized, businesses demolished...

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.

He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

Since July, more than a dozen pregnant children have been moved to a single facility in the small town of San Benito, along the south Texas border. The children kept in Texas are as young as 13, and about half are pregnant because of rape, according to a joint investigation by the Texas Newsroom and the California Newsroom. In Texas, abortion is banned in nearly all circumstances, including rape and incest.

This is why red states have higher voter apathy. Always shenanigans.

You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America.

And if it was any other presidentโ€™s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, itโ€™d be the instant end of their presidency.
