This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

The deputy speaker of Israel’s parliament and a leading member of Netanyahu’s party calling for the bombing of food stocks in Gaza just a few hours ago.

You won’t see this mentioned by any European or American leaders, or by most western media.

Zelenskyy stayed in Kyiv while Russia was bombing the city and sending in hit squads to kill him. J.D. Vance fled to an undisclosed location because some peaceful protesters yelled at him while he was on vacation. This is why I believe victory over these people is still possible.

If members of Congressβ€”like Rep. Grothman β€”are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs!

This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF upβ€”and he just walks off. Pathetic.

Project 2025 is gutting medical funding that helped Russell Vought's own kid Its architect's daughter has cystic fibrosisβ€”and benefits from a "miracle drug" backed by an agency he's attacking.

OMB's Russell Vought wants to slash funding for NIH, which helped develop a "miracle drug" for cystic fibrosis that his daughter received. β€œWe’re extremely grateful to live in a nation that leads the way on medical innovation,” Vought's wife wrote in a 2021 post. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Did Trump Quietly Kill a Sensitive Pentagon Probe into Elon Musk? The New York Times revealed last year that Musk and SpaceX failed to meet federal reporting requirements for Pentagon contractors. No one has asked: What’s going on with that today?

Just awful: One of the inspector generals that Trump fired was examining Elon Musk's failures to meet reporting protocol designed to safeguard national security as a major recipient of Pentagon contracts.

It's time to follow up on that. New piece from me:

As Elon Musk Attacks DEI, Tesla Quietly Addresses Racism Complaints The company’s board pledged to investors that it would pay closer attention to how the company managed workers.

Elon Musk has been at the forefront of Trump administration efforts to gut programs designed to promote diversity. At the same time, Tesla, which Musk leads, has tried to appease critics who have accused the company of racial discrimination.

The silence of most Republican members of Congress on the Trump tariffs tells you two things:

1. They know it is a terrible idea.

2. They are so afraid of Trump that they won’t say anything even though they know how much it is going to hurt their constituents and the country.

Corporate leaders who were fine with Trump sadistically imposing mass suffering on vulnerable groups as long as they got their tax cuts deserve every last bit of what this madman is now unleashing on them with these tariffs. Assholes.

Montgomery County Public Schools comes out and tells Trump to pound sand with his EO telling schools that they have to discriminate against transgender students.
