BEWARE.... The sneaky Republicans knew these cuts would be unpopular..so they DELAYED the cuts to take place until AFTER the 2026 elections!

Don't reward them with your vote!

Putin: ‘Russia is ready to keep fighting until the last Ukrainian dies.’

Western politicians & press: ‘Peace talks have stalled…’

Russia has zero interest in peace. Calling Kremlin demands for Ukrainian surrender ‘peace talks’ is just another way of spreading their propaganda.

Pretty much every article about the Putin-Kushner-Witkoff summit in Moscow yesterday fails to mention that Kushner is simultaneously accepting tens of millions in annual payments from the Saudis and other foreign governments.

Seems like a key detail!

I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it.

You couldn't write comedy better than this. It's better than VEEP.

Congratulations, MAGAs, you’ve owned the Libs—and all it’s cost you is a functioning government, a working democracy, human rights, national peace, economic stability, affordable groceries, affordable healthcare, qualified leaders, and global standing.

Well, Trump Supporters, as a member of the woke radical Left, it kills me to say this, but you win.

The model of masculinity offered by MAGA, from Trump on down, has always been one of inadequate men pretending at greatness, but only a few are as laughably obvious as Pete Hegseth, a man whose every bellowed word bespeaks an unsubtle small-D energy that fuels him. www.salon.com/2025/12/03/p...
Hegseth's "warrior ethos" is cowardice
He calls himself the "Secretary of War" and plays a tough guy on TV, but in real life he's a major weenie

I agree! Why are the media outlets,& others in the room,not speaking out against Trump's harassment of women?
What if it were your daughter or wife? Any business would be sued for allowing it!

On this day in 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat. For 381 days people boycotted the buses. They walked, carpooled and organized every single day until segregation cracked. Nothing will change today without that same resolve. Freedom isn’t granted, it's taken one step at a time. #Resist

"Since January, Mr. Sacks, 53, has occupied one of the most advantageous moonlighting roles in the federal government, influencing policy for Silicon Valley in Washington while simultaneously working in Silicon Valley as an investor."

Stare into the abyss/read this article:
We just published a deep look into David Sacks, the White House's AI and Crypto czar. The story examines how he has been able keep hundreds of stakes in AI-related and crypto companies as he influences gov policy in those very industries.

Do you assume that cutting the foreign aid will channel more money toward you? NO. The regime is also cutting your healthcare fund.

Every penny goes to the billionaire tax cut. The rest watch their party life, hoping for a trickle.
This administration is cutting foreign assistance programs left and right, including ones that promote inter-faith and cross-cultural dialogue — something they’ve claimed to care about.

Excellent commentary about the need for the Dem candidate for president to be another FDR !

I believe that @petebuttigieg.bsky.social is that man. I campaigned for Pete 2019-2020, and have followed his comments/appearances since. Voters in Iowa & NH voted for Pete; he has broad common sense support
