Weโ€™re about to invade Venezuela because trump wants their oil. No other reason. The airspace has been cleared. Embassies are being evacuated. Flights are being canceled.

Heโ€™s going to kill people for oil.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone โ€” period.

If youโ€™d just serve the people instead of the donor class, you wouldnโ€™t need the donor class. A million $20 donors beats one $10M donor every time.

Pentagon says it's investigating Sen. Mark Kelly over video urging troops to defy 'illegal orders' The Pentagon says it's investigating Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona over possible breaches of military law after the former Navy pilot joined a handful of other lawmakers in a video that called...

The message angered Trump, who accused Kelly and five other Democrats featured in the video of committing sedition, calling it โ€œpunishable by DEATH.โ€

If sedition is so bad, then why did Trump pardon 14 MAGA terrorists convicted on sedition charges?

IMHO pumpkin pie is kind of gross by itself but absolutely delicious when drowned in whipped cream.

As far as other types of pies, it really depends on the particular prep/recipe and/or my mood.

One of my favorite pies is a tangy cream cheese pie topped with berries or canned cherries.

Trump tried to extort Brazil to drop the case against Bolsonaro by slapping a 50% tariff on the country

He also personally sanctioned Alexandre de Moraes-the judge overseeing this case-and his wife

Of course it didnโ€™t work. Prices in the US increased instead

Now Trump has been humiliated

Again

Democrats believe in democracy and letting people vote. Republicans believe in thuggery, authoritarian rule and rigged elections.

I don't know when Dems have chosen violence and intimidation in response to Dem elected officials not doing what they want, at least in my lifetime. It's a very clear reminder of the difference between the two parties right now and how far Republicans have gone off the rails.

Apparently 5 Indiana Republican Senators have now been "swatted", presumably by members of their own party who are unhappy with their decision to ignore demands from Gov. Braun and Trump about redistricting and instead do what's best for Indiana and/or democracy.

While Americans try to get the Epstein files released, the Trump administration allowed this to happen!! 1.27 billion acres of water which will endanger many species including the Rice Whale.

Hey, Kash. Copy everything on the Epstein files hard drive and take it with you on your way out. Stop protecting the pedo in chief who hates your guts and finally do the right thing for the victims.

This is called โ€œchain refoulmentโ€ and itโ€™s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply donโ€™t care.

Nearly One in 10 U.S. Adults Report Having Had Cancer Nearly one in 10 Americans have been diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lifetime, even as new incidences of cancer are slowly falling.

HHS Secretary Felcher will blame vaccinations.
