An incredibly important election in a tiny country just went the right way. Moldova has resisted a huge Russian disinformation campaign and will not become a Russian puppet state.

From 1939-1945 German officers also listened to speeches from civilians about how the laws of war didn’t apply to them. And then they participated in the Holocaust, starved millions of prisoners of war, destroyed villages and cities, and were defeated.
Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."

BREAKING: Hours after Texas lawmakers approved a new gerrymandered congressional map, Texans ask a court to block it.
They argue the new map violates Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and the 14th amendment by diluting Black and Latino voting power.

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.
Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

It’s not a “distraction” when Trump deploys military and feds against DC—it’s part of MAGA’s fascist project. We must act as if we believe this is true, because it is, and because doing otherwise makes it impossible to think strategically about how to fight back.

US BUDGET DEFICIT SOARS
The deficit jumped 19% to $291B in July. This is despite $21B collected from Americans due to higher import taxes, which led to higher costs on goods like furniture, footwear, and auto parts.
The deficit for 2025 is already $1.63 trillion, up 7% from the last year.

Today we honor the wounded warriors who put their lives on the line for this country.
But let’s be clear—#PurpleHeartDay can’t just be symbolic. If you’re not fighting for healthcare, housing, and justice for our veterans, you’re not really honoring them.

Like the Koch brothers and other conservative billionaires, Dunn and Wilks want to slash regulations and taxes.
Their endgame, however, is more radical: not just to limit the government but also to steer it toward Christian rule.
