just say it, reporters, it's not hard: '...the trump administration's open threats to use military force against a state that has not attacked it are widely seen by experts as illegal under international law...' there is very little to debate about that.

This is real. A government agency calling Americans performing their democratic right of protest β€œimbecilic morons.” This Trump regime is a poison and never should have gotten power. A total disgrace.

In my entire life, I've never seen any President actively ask the Supreme Court to intervene so that they don't have to feed hungry people.

It's truly obscene, I don't care what party or religion you belong to.

It's foul and inexcusable.

There has to have been a reason. He personally benefits in some way....

Trump relentlessly boasts he’s brought gasoline prices way down. The truth is they’re still slightly higher year on year and have spent almost all of 2025 solidly higher.
Somehow no one in media ever corrects him.

So Trump’s Truth Social has introduced it’s own AI, thought I’d give it a whirl. Based on the responses to my questions, I’m looking forward to trump suing his own company.

Air pollution from fossil fuels kills 200,000 to 350,000 Americans.

For a very particular reason, ALAN DERSHOWITZ, I’m thinking about how the Harvard Law Faculty, which Dersh is a member of, were VERY vocal about how Harvard’s mee Obama-era title IX standards were too stringent and β€œunfair” to accused perpetrators

Have you seen this good news?

The #Resistance is strong in NC!

There's a lot of terrible news out there, but there are also things to be grateful for & this awesome show of resistance to #ICELawlessness in Charlotte, North Carolina is one of them.

Thank you, Charlotte!

Not that I believe really anything Nuzzi writes, given her record, but the far bigger scandal here is her claim that RFK Jr. was still actively using psychedelics last year, then became HHS secretary in an admin that is killing people for smuggling recreational drugs.

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

See that Rolex clock and gold bar?

It looks like those Swiss gifts paid off.

Trump cut tariffs on Swiss goods β€” like luxury watches β€” from 39% to 15%.

While Trump’s tariffs increase prices for Americans, billionaire CEOs and foreign companies sucking up to Trump get relief.

Hey Pam Bondi. This is John Mitchell. Gird your loins because you actually work for the people and not the president and you will eventually find out what that means.

@jenna-m-norton.bsky.social is,quite frankly,a hero,even though she’d never accept that title. She has stood up for science and the American people & spoken out with incredible bravery,while still scared. She refuses to back down. She is also an incrdible,incredible leader & example for us all.

Trump re-pardons a Jan. 6 defendant to erase unrelated gun conviction The new pardon ends a legal clash over the limits of Trump’s sweeping Day One clemency for those who stormed the Capitol.

Trump is so proud of his performance, I bet he could be goaded into taking the test on live TV. That would absolutely silence all his critics.
