This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.
This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has returned $21 billion to people who were cheated by big banks and credit card companies.
So why are Trump and Musk gutting an agency that's returning money to people who were scammed?
For them, this has never been about cutting costs.

Resistance in the form of creativity. These poems of @caligreg.bsky.social are great.
Whiskey and War
Loud and drunk, a sight to see,
Temper like a child of three.
He shirks, he shifts, he spins, he lies,
His incompetence means others die.
