The verdict is in:

It's a Russian peace plan.

No one thinks it's weird that Russia dictates US foreign policy now.

Trump will do ANYTHING to hurt people. He thrives on the suffering of others.

Crucial victories. It's looking like a true Blue Wave tonight.

ICE hoodlums must be held accountable.

Once in a blue moon, even Rand Paul is right.

I hope they're suing the hell out of Apple.

Jesus. The guy should be in jail for assault.

I would say "unbelievable," but with Trump, any insanity is possible.

Being deeply corrupt themselves, they don't give a damn about white-collar crime.

ABC panicked, allowing itself to be intimidated by the MAGA crowd. They've only made fools of themselves.

While of course the CDC is far from perfect, its work has saved many lives, and it is essential if we are to get through new health crises. Trump is tearing it apart, and the result could be catastrophic.

Some innocent civilians are going to be killed from this insanity.

Opinion | Iโ€™m a Red-State Mayor. Diversity Is Not Reverse Bigotry.

I grew up in Oklahoma City, and loved it as a kid. Oklahoma politics in recent years has often given me cause to be ashamed of the state. But kudos to the Republican mayor of the city for his excellent NYT article today. Indeed, diversity is one of our strengths. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/20/o...

40% is WAY too high.

Thanks in advance to the European leaders, forming a united front with Ukraine.

I hate gerrymandering, and wish it would be outlawed. But I also don't believe in unilateral disarmament. So it's necessary to fight back, hard.

So glad that the European leaders are coming. A united front to protect our alliance with Ukraine. Trump must not be allowed to betray Ukraine. Putin dreams of absorbing most of Ukraine, and perhaps Poland would be next.

Of course Trump went back on his word, as he always does.

Putin shrewdly played to Trump's pathetic vanity. As a result of this fiasco, Russia will keep killing Ukrainian civilians, with no response from the U.S.

16.08.2025 14:31 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 5    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Sick and unsurprising.

Incompetence that is all too typical of Trump's people.

Putin dominated Trump, as he always does. Sad.

Crime in D.C. is at a historic LOW.
