Russia interfered in the 2024 election, as well. Their goal was to elect Donald Trump and weaken U.S. support for Ukraine. This is all well-documented, but what's been publicly released is most certainly just the tip of the iceberg. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Interesting quote from Erdoğan:
“Democracy is like a tram. You ride it until you arrive at your destination, then you step off.”

This is the meeting that will be seen as the change in history.
How America chose to align with Russia and turn its back on allies.
It will be studied as the most vulgar, disrespectful and downright disgusting moment.
There’s no turning back from this.

I just want to say once again, Black folks in PA told us Fetterman was basura. And progressives told them to shut up because Conor Lamb was too establishment. And now, Fetterman is basically MAGA. I just wished y'all learned a lesson just once.

Listen friends - gather your hope where you can. People showed up in all 50 states on a moments notice. Voicemail boxes of senators are filling up. Lawsuits are being filed.
Look at all the good people.
And do not forget to take care of yourselves. Seriously. This is a long haul.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: So here’s how it’s going to go down—this is going to be very rough. But the big wake-up call is for our American friends.
For example, Kentucky—the number one purchaser of Kentucky spirits in the world is Canada, and all our provinces have just pulled it off the shelves.
