The kremlin is openly celebrating Donald Trump’s new national security strategy, claiming it aligns with russia’s vision. At a critical moment for Ukraine, this strategy abandons its allies while russia continues its attacks, proving it cannot be trusted to honor any agreements.

There are good people in this country, people who stand up for their neighbors & put their bodies on the line.

Don't forget that. Good people stand against #ICELawlessness. Be inspired by that. As ICE thugs round up, brutalize & torture our fellow Americans, do or say something! Don't be complicit.

Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.

If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Trump is constantly Projecting, just about every time he opens his mouth on just about any subject, he is projecting.

Be assured, when he accuses anyone of a crime, he is talking about himself.

She'll be the city's first Democratic mayor since the 1990s. She flipped the office from Republicans, and does so easily. She leads the DeSantis-endorsed Emilio González 59/41 right now with most ballots counted.

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.
