President Vladimir Putin went to Alaska, not to negotiate a peace agreement, but rather to put Trump in his place for openly criticizing him about the war in Ukraine.

A Navy vet. I took the oath because of my convictions and my respect for my grandfather and father's service in WWI and WWII. The sacrifices of those generations carry profound historical weight. Military and law enforcement today would do well to show more respect for those shoulders they stand on.

Trump’s so-called β€œwhite genocide” in Africa is a lie.

Afrikaner commentator Piet Croucamp, an academic at North-West University in South Africa, told CBS News:

β€œThis is the land of milk and honey if you’re white.”

You can't claim to be a country of "Law and Order" when you have a convicted felon president who openly solicits and accepts BRIBES.

This shit IS NOT NORMAL.

Here is the real lede: β€œa victory that ends the GOP's 12-year hold on Nebraska's largest … with Ewing ahead 54-46”

Not just a win, but a massive turnaround. A decade of MAGA flips to nearly double-digit victory for a Dem.

Those are 2010 Tea Party-in-reverse numbers.

Walz: An hour by hour day by day basis, the President has chosen, chosen to throw our economy into turmoil.

We are talking about a guy that slapped a 10% tariff on an island populated only by penguins. It would be funny as hell if it wasn't true and stupid.

Couldn't agree more. Saying the same old things louder on more media outlets won't save the country. Time for new leadership, big decisions, strength, and action.

What some people aren’t factoring into their analysis is the reality that companies were buying tons of inventory to beat the tariffs.
That’s cash taken from being able to invest or hire. In fact the probably cut costs and jobs as a result.
