US:

- abruptly drops support for Kurds in Syria in January
- now talking about supporting Iranian Kurdish separatists

Really fills with you with confidence in the long term planning that went into this :/

Iranian missiles cannot reach the U.S. not by nearly 10,000 miles. So when she says they are threatening lives in the U.S. would love for press to point this out.

Also, this bitch. WTF.

US in talks with Iranian Kurdish militants over anti-regime operations Iraq-based groups have asked Trump administration for intelligence, weapons and training support

Iranian Kurdish armed groups are in talks with the Trump administration about whether they could play a role in the ongoing US-Israeli military campaign against the Iranian regime. This has involved conversations about whether to attack Iranian security forces in a possible ground offensive led by

The opening US and Israeli strikes on Iran are just phase one.

The real test is what comes next.

Pushing Kurdish factions to launch a ground offensive and expecting the rest of the Iranian people to rise up is a bigger gamble

On Telegram

A ground operation against Iran, ordered by the US, has just begun. Thousands of Kurds from Iraq have invaded Iranian territory.

OMGGG!!! Tim Walz just curb-stomped and NUKED the entire racist witch hunt MAGA circus with one sentence.

Jasmine Crockett’s Cryptocurrency History Is Under Scrutiny. Here’s What Her Record Tells Us. The congresswoman's 2022 victory was bolstered by the financial support of crypto super PACs.

If you're voting in Texas today, I urge you to vote for @jamestalarico.bsky.social in the Senate primary. He would make an incredible Senator.

Jasmine Crockett is a great spokesperson, but she's in the pocket of the crypto industry. We don't need more Senators who are bought by crypto bros.

CRIMINAL GROUPS
Not surprising

Is she an idiot or intentionally spreading fake claims?

Interesting

There's essentially no way this can be a mistake. This information had to be purposely removed from the Epstein files-in violation of the law-to protect Trump

Pam Bondi's DOJ is undoubtedly complicit in a cover up

Hundreds of American nurses choose Canada over the U.S. under Trump More than 1,000 American nurses have successfully applied for licensure in British Columbia since April, a massive increase over prior years.

“The Millers are part of a new surge of American nurses, doctors, and other health care workers moving to Canada, and specifically British Columbia, where more than 1,000 U.S.-trained nurses have been approved to work since April.”

New Democratic TV ad just dropped:

The bravest person in Congress is Democratic Rep. Al Green. He always speaks truth to power as he did last night during the fascist State of the union holding up a sign to Trump's face that read "BLACK PEOPLE AREN'T APES!" He was ejected from the State of the Union for daring to defy Trump!

Epstein files: transparent, incompetent or a cover-up? Despite the Trump administration’s claims, the Epstein scandal is not over because victims have not received justice and most of the files have not been released, writes Kiran Moodley.

Alarming news from the Dilly detention center in Texas, where children and their mothers are being held: Young teenage girls are take to a separate so called "Blue Butterfly Zone" where nobody can see them, no contact.

If we're to give every child the opportunity to reach their full potential we must prioritise our investments in services for special educational needs and disabilities. We need to streamline the process for accessing support so that every one can get the help they need, when they need it.

.

When we topple the Trump regime we should claw back every dime his family pilfers from the U.S. Treasury. Include all the fines & restitution he allowed fraudsters to get out of paying via corrupt pardons. Costing Americans billions. Stop MAGA now.

Remember: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries.

They're eventually paid by us at the check out line.

It's up to us to make sure Trump and MAGA Republicans pay for them during the midterms, too.

I called for security for this funding in May last year, so it is great to see that this has been recognised
