A majority of the Senate voted to extend health insurance tax credits, but Republicans killed it with a filibuster. All Democrats voted against raising your health insurance premiums. Only 4 Republicans voted against raising your health insurance costs. www.twincities.com/2025/12/11/s...

It's not like we need more than one company to own all media. At least all media will be owned by billionaires who will make sure we never hear a bad word about crimelord Trump.

Exactly - the Trump administration is enacting violent white supremacy and ethnic/racial cleansing. Completely abhorrent and unacceptable.
This fight has never been about undocumented people. Take a look at how they are treating American citizens.

O'Hara: "There's folks that are masked, they may be kidnapping people. We have had those reports. The community should know that if you see something like that, you should call 911. Let's not forget -- we very recently had tragedy in this state by someone who was purporting to be law enforcement."

Witkoff should be fired ... for thinking he's being insightful for figuring out that Trump is easily manipulated by flattery. The rest of the planet already knew.
Witkoff's advice to Putin aide Ushakov is to have Putin flatter Trump. "He will say that Mr. Trump is a real peace man and so and so," Ushakov replies, according to transcript of call obtained by Bloomberg. archive.is/2025.11.25-2...

Here's hoping the "deep state" is a real thing.
Three things about the Witkoff tapes:

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.

2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.

3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.
