The media in the Oval Office today couldn’t even find time to ask Netanyahu about their own colleagues.

Trump is next to an indicted war criminal.

In almost an hour, NOT A SINGLE QUESTION from any journalist about the bombing of schools, starvation of Gazans or last week’s mass murder of paramedics by Israeli forces.

If you wonder how genocide is allowed to unfold, this is how.

A House vote on the SAVE Act is imminent. If enacted, 69 MILLION married women would have a much harder time registering to vote bc their name doesn’t match their birth certificate. It shouldn’t be harder for women to vote than to their husbands…why do we even have to say that #HandsOffHerVote

Instead of working to fix the economic challenges facing Americans, House Republicans are instead working to make it harder for them to vote.

The new legislation would require American citizens to produce documents like a passport or birth certificate to register to vote.

At least 75% of the men Trump illegally deported to El Salvador have no criminal records. These men have been abducted and sent to a hell-hole Salvadoran “prison” that is the the equivalent of a torture-laden concentration camp. No due process.

The Trump regime is paying El Salvador $6 million…

I’m old enough to remember when I took out a full-page ad in the New York Times last fall to publish a letter signed by 225 mental-health professionals saying that Trump’s severe personality disorders made him destructive and dangerous.

DEVASTATING INTERVIEW

Trump must be thrilled Chuck Schumer is minority leader.

@schumer.senate.gov doesn’t get it—he doesn’t see democracy at real risk and isn’t fighting to save it. Worse—he’s waiting for us to rise up before he stands up.

That’s not the leadership I want. What about you?

Call it anecdotal, but my Canadian friends who are cancelling their US travel are not doing it because of tariff worries at all; they’re doing it because the US government is currently actively threatening Canada’s sovereignty and economy and they’re all justifiably furious
This is exactly why Canadians are fed up with US media.

A segment on Canadians cancelling Vermont vacations. Mentions tariffs but not (1) who started the trade war or (2) that the US is constantly threatening to ANNEX our country!

This isn’t MAGA. It’s not FOX. It’s a random NBC affiliate.

Nah. This headline is not accurate. Zelenskyy is excluded.

The call this morning with Trump and Putin is really about stealing assets from Ukraine. Russia won’t have to give up a damn thing!
