The US is now complicit in the deaths of Ukrainians as Trump ONCE AGAIN does not sanction Russia despite his so called “red line.”

He is the weakest so called leader America has had in its history.

Read it. Re-read it. Read it to your family and friends. Recognize it for the warning it is. (Think that's an overstatement? Imagine how it is being read by Stephen Miller. By Tom Homan. By Pam Bondi.)
So as Justice Sotomayor says, “The implication of the Government’s position is that not only noncitizens but also US citizens could be taken off the streets, forced onto planes, and confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress if judicial review is denied unlawfully before removal"

Russia murdered at least 4 people in Dnipro just hours ago and injured 19 others.

Just like that, those lives are gone for no reason other than terror.

We haven't just abandoned our allies. We haven't just switched sides. We haven't just weakened our defenses against our adversaries in every possible way. The Trump Administration is actively attacking the United States--doing more damage than any adversary ever.

Musk Set to Get Access to Top-Secret U.S. Plan for Potential War With China
Giving Elon Musk access to some of the nation’s most closely guarded military secrets is a major expansion of his role as an adviser to President Trump and highlights his conflicts of interest.

Trump is destroying the US economy so fast.
In January, the consensus forecast was 2.8% GDP growth for the US in 2025.
A few days ago, the OECD said 2.2%
Today, the US Fed said 1.7%.
It will soon collapse even further as tariffs proliferate.
Recession appears increasingly likely.

It’s becoming clearer by the day that to both Putin and Trump “peace” and “getting it settled” means nothing else than destroying and conquering Ukraine.

America is, currently, the bad guys
In case it wasn’t clear before, the U.S. is officially aligned with Russia

Are you aware of the new US foreign policy under Trump?
1. Serving Putin.
2. Opposing NATO.
3. Opposing Ukraine.
4. Opposing democracy.
5. Declaring trade wars on all traditional friends.
Why does the US & its Congress allow such an antidemocratic and anti-American policy?

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

My plea to Dem leaders, liberal elites, social scientists, and every critical thinker who wants to keep fighting is to think beyond the perennial assumption that working-class drift can only be arrested by tweaking economic policy or talking points. Free to all. www.offmessage.net/p/democrats-...
