Q: You said the Iranian nuclear sites have been 'totally obliterated.' What's left to go after?

TRUMP: You could get whatever the dust is down there. If we do it, that's really the least of we mission. But we'd probably grab whatever is left.

I’m running for governor because the choices we make today shape the future our kids will inherit tomorrow. Every child in Michigan deserves safe schools, clean water, affordable health care, and a chance to build a life where they can thrive here in Michigan. Let’s get it done.

This is wild.

41 DUI arrests by a Tennessee trooper. All dismissed. 22 drivers were completely sober.

He “resigned”. No explanation. No accountability. No apology. His personnel file doesn’t even mention the cases.

Police departments shouldn’t be in the business of shielding corrupt officers.

Trump Threatens to Block Michigan-Canada Bridge He Once Championed The president’s targeting of the bridge shows just how drastically U.S.-Canada relations have fallen between his two terms.

In his second term, Trump has hit Canada with aggressive tariffs and repeatedly said it should become the “51st state.”

In an escalation of this trade war, he’s threatening to stop the opening of a new U.S.-Canada bridge until his demands are met.

The Melania movie is on track to lose Amazon tens of millions of dollars.

The company paid $75 million to acquire and market the movie. In the best-case scenario, the movie is on track to bring them in $10 million.

Emmer: "It's a false herring for these guys to suggest, 'Oh, we now we need a judicial warrant,' because they know that that's going to delay any enforcement of the actual administrative warrant."

Obama: "When I was president, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate, or cut off funding, but that's contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work. We shouldn't get discouraged by the fact we have a tougher job"

Obama: "Right now we're being tested. And the good news is what we saw in Mpls and St. Paul, and what we're seeing in places across the country included here in LA, has been the American people -- at least a good number of them -- saying 'we're going to live up to those values we say we believe in'"

Obama on Trump's antics, including posting a video depicting him and Michelle as apes: "It's important to recognize that the majority of the American people find this behavior deeply troubling. It is true that it gets attention. It's true that it's a distraction ... people still believe in decency"

Mortgage delinquency rates are surging

And Trump's immigration raids are harming the homebuilding industry

And the wannabe king says "affordability" is a hoax.

But hey.... The Dow broke 50,000, right?

This is disgusting Islamphobia and dangerous bigotry from Rep. Fine. Speaker Johnson should strip him of all committees and assignments and he should be forced to resign.

I hope those that elected him are repulsed by his words and actions.

I refuse to sit back and watch the climate crisis destroy our planet.

California will keep showing up, pushing forward, and proving that a safer, more sustainable world is possible.

Happy Presidents' Day?

Not much to be happy about this year, but the good news is that we only have 2 more max under this monster.

Meanwhile, volunteer for Democratic candidates.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

One thing the right-wing media will not report about ICE is the fact they have arrested almost a million people in various processes of migrating to the U.S. and place those people into prison.

“You want ICE agents to have to identify themselves before they try to kidnap or kill you, but you don’t want to have to present a birth certificate to be able to vote” I mean… yes
