Trump is escalating his attacks on US citizens because Mike Johnson canโ€™t hold off the congress for much longer. Once government is in session enough votes have reportedly been obtained to release the Jeffrey Epstein files.

We should all be concerned because they are not kids and these are not jokes. This is straight up White Supremacy nonsense, and the people saying them are supposedly future leaders in the Republican Party.

That is different from what the admin said. They claimed it was coming out of DOD R&D funds. Tariff money cannot be touched by the Trump Regime without congressional approval.

Here we go again. Contact your legislators and tell them you donโ€™t support this bill. Ohio voters spoke in 2023 in favor of womenโ€™s reproductive healthcare. OGOP keep your dirty hands out of womenโ€™s healthcare.

Israel Intercepts Another Activist Flotilla That Aimed to Break Gaza Blockade

Since when is humanitarian aid an โ€œactivistโ€ flotilla? Describing life saving aid in stark terms denigrates the Good Samaritans being terrorized.

The assault on American History is in full swing, led by none other James David Bowman (aka: VP JD Vance). We guess he is given a pass to not using his โ€œdead name.โ€
