“It is easier to con a man than to convince him he has been conned.”
Mark Twain
So dark. Kushner raises billions for his fund while the family of a soldier killed in Truml’s war gets help on Go Fund Me: www.gofundme.com/f/major-alex...
A Spanish assembly member in the Madrid parliament says "Do you think the mothers of 160 dead girls would thank Trump for killing their children?
You have become a bootlicker of Trump." (The chamber erupted in support.)
Trump insulted, patronized and tariffed American allies. Now he wants their help. How should they respond?
“I broke it now you fix it.”
The installation, titled Above and Beyond, hangs in the National Veterans Art Museum in Chicago. It includes over 58,000 replica tags, one for each American soldier killed or missing in action during the Vietnam War.
If Trump doesn't like your coverage of the war, his FCC will pull your broadcast license.
That is flagrantly unconstitutional.
The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled.
A truly extraordinary moment.
We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.
Act like it.
The Lonesome Death of Daphy Michel
Haitian woman, 31, dies alone at Pittsburgh bus stop days after ICE released her to the streets far from home to perish. Rest in power, miss.

Don't. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspapers.
Jared Kushner holds no government position at all. He is not a Senate-confirmed political appointee & his "special peace envoy" job is completely fake. This is wildly illegal & unconstitutional nepotistic corruption. Stop normalizing it in the papers.
I cannot get over the fact that the Trump is aggressively pro-cancer. PRO CANCER. Nearly 20M Americans have cancer and more are getting it every damn day including rising rates in younger Americans. But Trump has cut cancer research funding & eliminated regulations on cancer causing agents. WTF
What a joke. FBI agents are not street brawlers. They interview witnesses, uncover documents, analyze intelligence, and testify in court, usually while wearing a suit and tie. Just one more frolic for Kash at taxpayer expense.

While Democrats almost universally oppose Trump’s War in Iran, many of them are considering voting for a bill to fund the war.
This would be a catastrophic mistake.
Here’s why: messagebox.substack.com/p/no-democra...
Markwayne Mullen, Trump's new DHS Secretary pick, is one of Congress' most active stock traders.
He reportedly entered Congress with $12M & has reportedly grown his wealth to $65M.
He's already making shady deals - if he's confirmed, the conflicts of interest can only grow.
What she said and also the whole thread.
So many average citizens have stood up to Trump.
Alex Pretti went to the street to protect his fellow humans, who the Trump regime was harming. He lost his life for it. Renee Good lost her life for resisting.
And sorry, but—these fucking cowards in the Senate can’t vote against Trump nominees?
Devastating reporting. Like RFK Jr., Kristi Noem, and Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth is reshaping his department to indiscriminately kill tons and tons of children.
A major throughline of the Trump administration.
“.. a claim that, if true, would constitute an unprecedented breach of security protocols at an agency that serves more than 70 million Americans.”

It certainly appears that Dems are having a heck of a time "reading the room". Anger is running deep and these votes certainly don't help.
“The Dems aren’t in control, what do you expect them to do?”
Um, idk, could they start with the simplest of fucking tasks like NOT supporting/voting for the completely unqualified morons that are nominated for roles in this admin? Jfc
Even as a cynical scholar of rape culture, I'm shocked that this isn't the headline story on domestic politics everywhere right now. It's just an unfathomable abuse of power, in clear violation of the law.
A grim BBC report from Havana filed 4 days ago. The Trump Administration is deliberately causing the worst humanitarian crisis of my lifetime in the western hemisphere and the US prestige press can't be bothered to cover it. Please shame them into reporting on this crisis before people start dying.
Sen. DURBIN: This Trump nominee refused to disavow controversial commentary. He said it’s ‘essentially accurate’ that ‘you could abort every black baby in this country and your crime rate would go down.’ How can people of color have faith they’ll be treated fairly in his court?
If you are watching Trump's presser right now, you are seeing beyond reasonable doubt a person not mentally suited for any position of responsibility. Even running a small store.
GOP members of the House and Senate: You are seeing this too.
The SAVE Act failed before — and it must fail again. Tell your senators to stop this attack on the freedom to vote: bit.ly/4srDVLB
Guy who spent his first year in office trying to rip apart every program to support the transition to electric cars causing a fuel crisis in year two is…
Except he keeps making crazy mistakes and then not telling the truth about them
Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.
Russia helps Iran track American forces.
And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.
Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:

Let us pause and ponder the reaction if a Democrat called 6 deaths "light casualties."
