BREAKING: After ordering a report on what went wrong in the 2024 election, DNC Chair Ken Martin is now refusing to release the report, claiming doing so would be counterproductive.
This lack of transparency kills trust, disenfranchises voters, and shows weakness. Just ridiculous. Indefensible.

Warnock: He's got a lot of nerve saying that I'm using faith to divide people. This is a man who literally had protesters gassed and beaten down so he could hold up a bible in front of a church.

These two things are true:
1) Shooting National Guard members is horrific and criminal.
2) So is putting National Guard members in harm’s way to score political points.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

This chart is absolutely essential.
It explains why Trump removed America from the Iran Nuclear Deal in 2018.
Because it was *working*.
Trump needed a cause for war, so he manufactured it. This has all been in the works for some time now. He was never "weighing options."

I know America has moved on but I think it's still Hella important that Donald Trump referenced Napoleon and pretty much told the world he's above the law.
That's just me though. I'm a silly libtard. Anyway look pronouns!

I'm watching Canadian officials hold a presser on the Toronto plane crash and remarkably they're not blaming DEI or recklessly speculating about causes. They could never cut it down here in Trumplandia.

While Musk runs the country, Trump had a productive weekend naming himself Chair of the Kennedy Center, picking the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, canceling pennies, demanding Google Maps rename Gulf of Mexico, invited only White immigrants from Africa, and saved plastic straws.

It’s official: In the USA The Gulf of Mexico is now the “Gulf of America,” and Denali, the Alaska Native name for North America’s tallest peak, has been reverted to Mount McKinley. But we refuse to accept this change—Denali will always be Denali to us. #IStandWithDenali
