Can someone explain to me why the first felon of the United States is "closing" air space in another country, that doesn't want or need the United States there?

I know he thinks he can do whatever he wants all over the world.

But surely someone is going to stop him, since congress won't.

Telling people “prices are going down” while they’re in the checkout line is like telling someone on a treadmill they’re sitting on a couch. Their legs know you’re lying.

There’s an important election happening this week in Tennessee. MAGA is fearful that flipping the 7th District seat could shrink their House majority to a zero-vote margin.

Secretary Kennedy has spent his time in office spreading doubt about vaccines. Now measles is back.

@warnock.senate.gov is giving us an important #CupOfJoe! RFK Jr. is a threat to our health & must be fired immediately.

He's hiding the Epstein files for the same reason he hides his medical records and jobs reports. And it's not because they make him look good.

I can't even BEGIN to imagine how long it's going to take to UNFUCK everything our behated president has accomplished during his rampant destruction. If it even CAN be unfucked.

This is madness! The “no new wars” president is taking us to war with Venezuela.

Bombing ships in the Caribbean, as an ongoing operation, without congressional authorization, crosses the line into an unconstitutional use of military force.

I hope it’s now (even more) obvious that having military in our streets, with instructions to ignore “stupid rules of engagement,” is not in any way intended to protect us or make us safer

Airspace we don’t control. Are we going to start shooting planes out of the sky now like Putin?

Trump, with no authority to do so, demands the airspace “above and surrounding” Venezuela be closed as he threatens to bomb and invade the country.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

Marco Rubio knew the truth 9 years ago, but he sold his soul for power. Yet he was correct: He will one day have to explain his support for Trump, and this is not going to end well.

The president is about to start a war for no real reason. All of the things he has blamed on the country he’s targeting — fentanyl distribution, “emptying the asylums” and sending patients to the U.S., alignment with Tren de Aragua— are provably, obviously false.

Lots of people are going to die.

Judge Ellis exposed unprovoked force by ICE agents and reports rewritten to cover it.

There is no defending this.

My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan.

I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month.

And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.

Would love to ask the folks who lined up before dawn at Target for a swag bag “filled” with goodies and walked out with a reusable grocery bag and a pack of Uno cards, “how does it feel to get played?”

I honestly do not know why anyone is still loyal to that store. This is hilarious though 😂
