JD Vance touts job numbers as proof economy is strong. No oneโ€™s buying it. How Vance's celebratory statements about September's jobs report contradict reality, again raising questions about his credibility

A series of โ€œRemove The Regimeโ€ protests started in Washington, DC yesterday, and will continue this weekend. The group that organized the event wrote: โ€œWe are demanding impeachment and removal, and we are demanding it NOW.โ€

I appreciate that Seth tries to increase the reach of my work, but people should read the article rather than rely on his, ah, emotional summary.
As I said, "the outbursts of this past week are different." I explain why I think so here:

#HoldFast seems to be spreading quickly today. The phrase carries its own powerโ€”an old call to steady yourself, brace against the storm, and stay true to core principles. No surprise itโ€™s catching on in a moment like this.

How embarrassing.

Administration sources were all-in on this Russian wishlist until it was revealed that it was an *actual* Russian wishlist and not just the worst possible peace plan for Ukraine.

Well, well, well....

Let's think about why the Russians leaked it and why Trump is pushing for it at this particular moment. Could they think his days in the White House are numbered and they need to grab whatever they can?

Started out with $700,000 and now has over $21 Million. Politicians from both parties are doing this shit. Hard to believe it's not illegal.

Any one who considers themselves to be part of the pro-democracy movement in the United States needs to be calling their Senators and House Member this week to demand they fight Trump's selling out of Ukraine. We need to be very, very loud this week.

I donโ€™t get it either. Heโ€™s in his own tiny bubble and the fact that his staff is not being candid with him is criminal.

Worth reiterating: Zohran Mamdani acknowledged and denounced Israelโ€™s genocide of the Palestinian people while standing in the White House on live television right next to the President.
