AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

The amount of damage @PeteHegseth is doing to our military is staggering. He’s weakening our position against a hostile Russia and letting ISIS run wild in the Middle East so he can redirect assets and resources to protect us against…Latin America. Dumb.

If adopted, the changes would fulfill Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s pledge to disrupt the status quo and slash the number of four-star generals.

Amnesty International described a punishment "box" at the Florida immigrant detention camp.

@attackerman.bsky.social noted how it echoed a CIA black site torture tool.

I tracked down two former inmates who said they saw it with their own eyes.

Their accounts match recent reports from Amnesty International describing the conditions at the detention facility as “torture.”

Bill Clinton hasn’t been president for over 24 years now. He is completely irrelevant. Trump is being asked questions because he is the president of the United States and it’s his administration that has been stonewalling.

Welp that’s it ppl, you ACA rates are now locked in for at least 3 payments. Who the fuck is going to afford that? Do not let these fuckers have a good holiday when you are not.
UPDATE: Susan Collins after meeting says goal is to announce a plan, with vote next year to restore expiring subsidies. She said it’s too late to get a bill signed before end of the year.

Ask him how was Rob Reiner bad for this country. What specifically did he do and what impact did it have on this country. Ask him to explain instead of making these general statements. So tired of how the media acts like this clown's daily mouth diarrhea is so riveting.

Trump promised that he would let Kennedy “go wild on health.” In just a few months, Kennedy has obliterated a vast amount of government capacity and expertise that took generations to build up, gravely undermined American medical science, and above all waged an undeclared war against vaccines.
In a regime full of lunatics, RFKjr’s single focus of destroying America’s vaccine infrastructure ranks him as a true madman. Vaccines save lives. RFKjr is out to kill as many people as possible. He is very sick and deranged.

Not only will Putin not honor any ceasefire agreement, he will have his forces bombing Ukrainian businesses, homes, apartment buildings, hospitals, buses & people as he is signing the ceasefire document.
Much like his WH asset & puppet, he lacks honor, integrity, morality.
Russia is making preparations for the Zelensky ceasefire.

A bill on the genocide of the occupied territories has passed the Russian parliament and will be brought in effect once the frontlines are frozen in place.

This is RFK Jr’s anti-vax movement and his disinformation campaign. And equally as disturbing, some people are perfectly fine with this outcome.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.

Two options:

1) ICE deliberately targeted him.

2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.

Hard to say which option is scarier.

I don't think it's good for public safety that unidentified masked men just show up and start terrorizing people, and I don't think that masked men who do so should feel safe in public.
Masked men wearing ICE vests—but who refused to present a warrant or identify themselves—roped off a construction site, trapping two men on a roof for hours in subzero temps. Protesters gathered.

In my opinion the president shouldn't constantly be like "Holy shit did you guys see this?" and repeating a thing he kinda heard on TV. I don't think that should be mostly what the president does.
He issued a correction, proving why he needs to stfu and let the cops do their jobs.

It’s a a goddamned ongoing tragedy, not a reality TV show, primed for him to drop the big reveal.
