Leave it to Senile Satan to be so far out of line that Switzerland steps in for the first time in its history to call his actions a violation of international law.
I wonder if that was Iranian agents.
Congrats! Enjoy your last weekend before the 40-hour grind starts.
This should piss off every single American. I know I’m pissed.

Yep. What is the exit strategy? Is there one? No one knows. Every day, what happens depends on how Trump feels that day, which lies he tells, what he orders, what is talked about, because all that matters to Trump is that he remain in power. Everything else is of no real importance to him.
Justice for the survivors!⚖️

Good! Next week, the GOP will apply pressure to him again to vote with them. Let's all hope he holds this position and votes against it.
And what is all this - it doesn't look like unconditional surrender to me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZ5z...
Priorities. $11.3 billion could have provided green energy upgrades for millions of households, covered healthcare for hundreds of thousands of children, or built thousands of affordable housing units. It could also significantly bolster public infrastructure and pandemic preparedness.
Another hush money payment.
Pay attention to what happens in the Senate next week. The GOP will be trying to force the Save Act through. We need to focus on making certain it remains without sufficient votes to pass. Call your Senators.

So, asking civilians to show some "guts" and risk their lives to deliver oil for Trump in a War Zone where ships are being attacked with missiles is not a sound strategy? Who could have predicted that? 🤪🤣
The Trump administration filed an emergency appeal with the Supreme Court, seeking to dismantle deportation protections for hundreds of thousands of Haitian immigrants. Solicitor General D. John Sauer urged the justices to overturn
I’m sure Trump anticipated all this and has a great plan because he’s a master strategist.
Proving to the world that he really is a demented toddler and has no real appreciation for the families he is placing in harm's way to amuse and entertain himself, while distracting the world from the Epstein files.
Indeed. Hillary would have made a much better president. They did a smear job on her at the last minute that she could not fully address in time to matter. They did that on purpose.
I love art. An artist celebrates Trump's and Epstein's decade long friendship.

The richest Americans saw their net worth soar 120% from 2017 to 2025.
The top 1% now control $55.8 trillion in assets — more than the G.D.P. of the United States and China combined.
Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.
Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

This is clearly fine with the GOP.
Again, no one is perfect. But California law, Education Code section 221.5, explicitly allows transgender students in its K-12 school districts to compete on the team that matches their preferred gender.
No one is perfect. Sure, he wants to run for President. I have no doubt he is a publicity hound. Anyone who seeks that job almost has to be one to rise above the noise out there. But he was among the first to recognize LGBT rights, and I'm willing to listen to what he has to say.
Not really breaking any news here.
Iran is filling the waters in the Strait of Hormuz with mines to blow up tankers as Trump urges civilians sailing the tankers to have some "guts" and risk their lives to deliver oil out of the Middle East. Sure, if they listen to Senile Satan, they could all come home without any guts at all.
Thank you, Senator Warren for listening to the people. No, we do not want this war with Iran. We want healthcare, jobs, and affordable food, housing, and gasoline.
Blumenthal after getting briefed on Iran: "We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here. There's also the specter of active Russian aid to Iran putting in danger American lives ... China also may be assisting Iran"
I'm so embarrassed, but I keep finding myself agreeing with Rand Paul. With a 47-year buildup, they had almost 5 decades to ask Congress to declare war if there were any grounds to do so. Freeing oppressed people is not sound foreign policy (and we did not do that). Our debt is a greater threat.
Gavin Newsom has been leading by supporting moral and ethical principles - a basis of the foundation of the Democratic Party for decades. What are the principles of the GOP? Give billionaires everything they want and ignore the needs of the American people?
BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiar—far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)
