WTF.
Could not have happened to a nicer guy.
Too bad their effort to change the drapes destroyed civilization.

The European Union should be preparing to defend themselves.
Today it became more clear than ever that the White House America is an ally of Putin

Yeah, this is pretty obvious but worth stressing.

Also, the idea that techbro coders with no experience in government are best able to identify and root out β€œfraud” is laughable

The DNC could not have stopped this.
What could have was all the dems and independents who did not vote in Nov or thought Trump was the better choice despite all the evidence, and the media that tried so hard to sanewash Trump had instead done their job and actually practiced journalism.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

2024: the hottest year on record It’s the hottest year we’ve ever lived through. It’s possibly the coolest we see from now on.

2024 was the hottest year on record. Ever.

In a few years you may remember it nostalgically as the coolest you've experienced since.

Co-president Musk has already suggested the US take over the UK.
The free world needs to understand that the United States may become a bigger threat to them than they have ever encountered.

I’m getting pervasive and convincing accounts from Facebook users that Mark Zuckerberg had Facebook accounts to start following JD Vance, Trump and Melania. You have to delete them manually. It fits perfectly with their decision to canceled fact checking.

The world is about to change. Before I can start to face those changes I want to say "THANK YOU" Mr. President and Madam Vice President. You brought fairness and decency back to the people's house. I will always be proud of voting for each of you!

If you’re celebrating a felon as president today instead of the humanity of Martian Lunar King you’re part of the problem.

The point is we now know Pluto is the size of many other objects in the outer solar system.
So are they all all the be considered planets as well, or is Pluto not a planet.

Unite. Fight. Win.

If we’re going to take on Trump, Republican extremists, and move our country forward, the Democratic Party needs to be stronger. I'm running for Chair of the Democratic National Committee to unite the party, fight everywhere, and win. Join me. 🧡

To the β€œhigh road” Democratic leaders who say Biden should pardon Trump, knock it off. What theΒ hell kind of a message do you think that would send? We need to fight autocracy, not flirt with it.

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.

We have turned them into Sub Prime Lenders 🧡

Facts that matter:
Trickle down economics is a scam to make the rich richer. It does nothing for working people. Zero. And it doesn’t lower the deficit or the national debt. It’s all bullshit.

Yes, Jack Smith is dismissing the charges against Donald Trump, but don’t worry, it’s not because he isn’t guilty, it’s just because he can’t charge him now that he’s ABOUT TO BE THE FUCKING PRESIDENT OF OUR NATION OF SO-CALLED FUCKING LAWS.

So, it’s fine.
Everything is fine.

I'm not exaggerating: as a historian I consider it to be historical fact that this is one of the most shameful documents in the history of the United States.

It's a concession by federal law enforcement that there's no means available to it to punish one of the biggest traitors in American history.
