Politics is a stopped clock. Both sides can be correct some of the time.
There is no such thing as a trans lesbian regardless of gaslighting. Citizens deserve a safety net.

Eisenhower, a Republican, hardly a neo-liberal, served as POTUS for the majority of the immediate post WWII era: 1952-1960.
Take it up with a real president, a real hero & a decent, humble Midwesterner.

Losing all swing states is a real tell.
I’ll never ever believe that Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris lost their elections and Jack Smith’s damning testimony only helps to cement that for me.

Someone is going to be deported to a prison.
Prosecutors say he crashed at 80 mph in a 5 mph zone on the UIC campus, then left his passenger to die in the wreckage.
The woman sat alone, dying in the mangled wreckage for 30 minutes before being discovered.

My dad was telling me a story of being the smallest kid in the class and always being picked on & a group of boys waiting after school to beat him up ~1948.

And yet, @60minutes.bsky.social didn't bother to mention this in their Maduro story. Weird.
The oil companies are a co-equal branch of government. So are the tech bros. Congress isn't.
Donald Trump acknowledged that he informed oil companies about his plans to attack Venezuela and abduct its leader, despite not bothering to notify Congress.

I wouldn't believe this if it was a Republican gov facing a major scandal. Why should I believe this for a Democratic gov facing a major scandal?
Minnesota has to come first - always.
Today, I’m proud of the work we’ve done to make Minnesota the best place to live and raise kids.
I’ve decided to step out of the race and let others worry about the election while I focus on the work.

JB is absolutely correct: This is our wag the dog moment
Never has a President wagged a dog harder than Trump and MAGA now.
To distract from Epstein, the explosion of health and homeowners insurance costs, and the tariffs that are decimating small businesses, Trump is plunging this country into a war and using our soldiers as pawns.

The US Haribo facility is virtually new, just over the state line in southern Wisconsin. Haribo Gummi bears is a 🇩🇪 company in operation since 1920 & I don't believe for 1 sec that it's more contaminated than wherever they process meat.
PS German gummies are better than US made that uses corn syrup

Ask Hamas why they didn’t build a country or better yet the Palestinians when they were offered one multiple times
Right because that video of the poor Hispanic little girl is all about Israel. Why do the Israeli's hate Palestine? Do the Palestinian people have a right to exist in their own country or is it better to kill starve and destroy their land so Trump, Netanyahu and cronies can build their resorts?
