Proud Women’s March and No Kings attendee. Anti-Trump AF. Tired of their lies and hate. Vaxxed. I’m not going to censor myself to comfort their ignorance.

WTF ?

This can’t happen.

Don't call this hypocrisy. The GOP voted to continue the war despite nuclear concessions because they never cared about peace. They wanted a holy war, and now they have one with 165 dead schoolgirls on Day 1.

Trump and his administration are THE WORST in the history of the United States.

“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”

That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.

He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.

Periodic reminder that ICE does not just track and watch immigrants. They are collecting and storing information on us all.

If Russia had planted a sleeper agent in the US with the goal of winning the presidency and driving the US into ruin they could not have done a better job than what Donald Trump is doing

This is encouraging.

Kennedy promised to restore trust in our health agencies.

He achieved the opposite.

Confidence in health agencies dropped during Trump’s first year.

38% of people trust Kennedy.

Polls show more trust in professional associations.

Seven days and $7 billion dollars later. We could have used that money for healthcare, veterans, the homeless, public schools, and SNAP benefits. We were told that we don't have the money. But we have it to bomb IRAN.

True, on all of it.

True, on all of it.

Make sure everyone knows this.

Because it is all TRUE.

Remember when Trump blamed Biden and Zelensky when he realized how fast he was burning through interceptor missiles? Brace yourselves: He was lying to hide his own failure.

Trump is losing allies and support.

This makes it a particularly dangerous time for our country.

THEY FINALLY DID IT! Sheldon Whitehouse officially called out the connections between Trump, Epstein, and Russia on the Senate floor.

🚨Senator Whitehouse just proved on the Senate floor what we've always known: Trump, Russia, and Epstein are all connected. The web of oligarchs, honey traps, and buried files is too thick to be a coincidence. This is the cover-up of our lifetime.

Racism, hate and misogyny, are the main reasons why we don't have a Kamala Harris or Hillary Clinton Presidency.

Brian McGinnis, the Marine veteran who was protesting against Donald Trump’s war with Iran, confirms that his arm was broken yesterday after being manhandled by Senator Tim Sheehy and Capitol police.

Bury them in a lawsuit.

It’s time to move the UN building out of New York, it’s not neutral ground; Trump’s US envoy to the UN Mike Waltz threatened to assassinate Iran’s Ambassador to the United Nations.

“He should be careful with his words sitting on American soil.”

Iranian opposition groups should absolutely not take up arms at the behest of the US.

Past US behavior, and especially that of Donald Trump, indicates a very high likelihood that they will ultimately be betrayed - left hanging in the breeze to be crushed and slaughtered by government forces.

Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."

This war isn’t an emergency that requires us to give the president more latitude. It’s a monstrosity that requires that judges, lawmakers and above all citizens work to preserve the integrity of elections and the republic.
