AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.

DOJ confirmed that 47,635 Epstein files have been removed.

That’s ANOTHER 47,635 reasons why we need ACCOUNTABILITY!

Hey, so it turns out according to US media, war's going great, surrender any second.

According to the media of the other 8 billion people on earth, all America's military bases got wiped out in the first 4 days and now they're carpet bombing tel aviv

If you are talking about US media, like the big outlets, then I have no clue.

I stopped paying attention to them after they started plainly repeating Trump's propaganda, and completely stopped doing their jobs.

If they are not showing it, it must be because they think it's not in Trumps interest

Hegseth is even too lazy to commission fake AI footage outside of trying to pass off some Call of Duty footage as real (that’s not a joke).

No updated official
casualty count. No official reports on damage to US bases and assets.

Why? Because it’s going badly.

Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."

Military strikes will not make us safer; they will inflame tensions & push the region further into chaos — every time we abandon diplomacy, we choose destruction”

We all need to be promoting and supporting anti-crypto candidates.
Trump and GOP are trying to deregulate and along with Musk control the industry. We can’t let that happen. Once again, Anthropic plays the hero.

When the guy has been accused of and found guilty of rape for decades, and the press is calling all this “unsubstantiated” they are no longer doing their job.

They are aiding and abetting a child rapist.

Epstein's sex empire was 'KGB honeytrap' The release of more than three million new documents relating to the late sex offender gives credence to claims made by senior security officials: that Epstein was working on behalf of Moscow.

Not conjecture. Excellent reporting. Now, what to do about it? Trump and every representative supporting this illegal war in Iran must go. This war, that obscures Netanyahu’s corruption trial and Trump’s deep ties wi/Epstein

Federal judge rules Trump administration's actions to dismantle Voice of America are illegal A federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration's actions to dismantle the Voice of America over the past year are illegal. U.S. District Court Judge Royce C.

Grifting Kari Lake had no authority to dismantle Voice of America. It will be rebuilt but rebuilding our reputation after Trump makes America a bonfire of corruption, killers and pedophiles will not be easy.
Everyone backing the Iran debacle must be voted out.
