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.

No second state visit for Trump Unbelievable. Keir Starmer has handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and should not go ahead.  This is the...

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Caroline Kennedy: β€œMy dad would be horrified and ashamed.”

RFK Jr. cannot be confirmed. Call your senators. Tell them this man is not qualified and is a dangerous choice to lead HHS

Wyden: "Mr Kennedy has embraced conspiracy theories, quacks, charlatans, especially when it comes to the safety and efficacy of vaccines. He has made it his life's work to sow doubt and to discourage parents from getting their kids lifesaving vaccines. It has been lucrative for him."

Empathy is radical.

How did this happen, how did so many of us lose our humanity?

RFK Jr.: Medicaid is not working.

Fact check: 83% of Medicaid enrollees rate the overall performance of Medicaid positively, and Medicaid enrollees report fewer cost-related problems relative to those with Marketplace coverage and ESI.

Trump grants sweeping pardon of Jan. 6 defendants, including rioters who violently attacked police President Donald Trump has pardoned, commuted the prison sentences or vowed to dismiss the cases of all of the 1,500-plus people charged with crimes in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S.

Congrats to the AP for getting this headline right.

Please notice who runs the wire story and doesn't.

β€˜I Have Been Betrayed By My Country’: Capitol Police Officers Blast Trump’s Jan. 6 Pardons Officer Michael Fanone said the Republican Party had a β€œmonopoly on hypocrisy” after Donald Trump pardoned convicted cop beaters and terrorists.

On Jan. 6, 2021, Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone lay stunned and injured on the ground of the U.S. Capitol building.

He’d been Tasered several times in the back of the neck, and someone tried to rip away his gun. That’s when he heard someone say, β€œKill him with his own gun.”

I never in my life thought I would see a sitting member of the U.S. Congress gleefully call our nation "the dominant predator." This is sick.

"Only when it is dark enough, can you see the stars. I know many people feel like we are entering a dark time...here's the thing. America, if it is, let us fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant billion of stars, The light of optimism, of faith, of truth, & service."
