The J6 Pipe Bomber stated that the reason he placed the pipe bombs at the DNC & RNC because he believed that the 2020 election was stolen, & no one in Congress was taking it seriously.
Now who was the one that kept on saying that the election was stolen??

Want to see what Marco Rubio sounded like in 2016 before he sold his soul for a little bit more power and the chance to remain relevant in a corrupt and fascist Republican party?

The Trump administration is trying to gather our personal data (see first comment below about that story) and this is why...
"Every day, your data is being collected, sold, and analyzed...could literally be used to influence the outcomes of major political events."

WOW. MTG revealed to the NYT that when she threatened to identify the names of men in the Epstein files who abused women, Trump called her and screamed. Everyone in the office suite could hear him yelling at her on speakerphone. He told her, “My friends will get hurt.”

Why are education and science under attack in Trump's America? The US became a leader in the 20th Century BECAUSE we excelled in science and education!
Trump stupidly appointed anti-vaxxer RFK Jr. to lead our Health and Human Services agency and here we are.

I don't think I like the concept of eating food produced by people who are not paid and don't give a damn about the product they're making. If you are trying to rehabilitate people who have made errors in their lives, train and pay them for their work!

Kudos to Ukrainian President Zelenskyy for keeping himself together after Trump‘s statement that „Russia wants Ukraine to succeed“. I would have bursted out laughing. But his facial expressions are priceless.

Putin is playing Trump for a fool. Putin won't stop attacking Ukraine. He tells Trump whatever he thinks he wants to hear, and then continues his attacks on Ukraine. He controls some of Ukraine's major power plants and he's not giving anything back.

Putin is the 1st world leader to attack a peaceful, unprovoked European democracy since Adolph Hitler. If Putin keeps parts of Ukraine, it would be no different from America allowing Hitler to keep parts of France that he invaded and occupied.
Putin will do it again.

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth.

The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.
