Been here for 80+ years and have seen it all. The good the bad and the ugly. There is so much beauty in nature, music, art and so many kind, open hearted generous people. Hard to understand why we cannot all live in peace and prosperity for all.

The Trump admin is now pushing Ukraine to REDUCE the size of its military as a condition for "peace".

Trump is purely Putin's whore.

We dont have to live like this. Other countries dont. We dont have to fear that our kids will be shot at school. Children shouldn’t have to fear dying at school. Its a choice. GOP lawmakers receive millions of dollars from gun manuifacturers for their vote against all rational gun laws

Sen. Murkowski knows what’s at stake: GOP leaders are scheming to gut Medicaid and gut rural care with it.

In Alaska, that means real lives lost.

They’re delaying taxes to game the rules—but the cruelty is the point.

Don’t let her cave. Hold the line.

While the courts ultimately won this battle, Trump’s team has been laying the groundwork to dominate the narrative.

And so far, it’s working.

In the lead-up to Abrego Garcia’s return, the DOJ set up a human trafficking case against him, which has been enough to taint nearly every headline.
Trump concedes to courts but controls narrative on Abrego Garcia’s return home
The Trump administration has already scored a major victory in the court of public opinion, as anyone reading the news will be inundated with dubious claims that he’s a human trafficker.
