Nothing says eat cake more than Trump. He leads the "I could care less" Presidency. Grocery prices going higher, no food assistance for low income Americans, and soon no affordable healthcare. Gilded ballrooms, marbled bathrooms, gold fixtures, and parties at Mar-a-Lago are this Queen's priorities.

It's rather unusual for a bishop to personally take part in a protest and suggests that the Vatican has given at least tacit approval.

Chicago Auxiliary Bishop José María Garcia-Maldonado at ICE detention facility: “Being here is an act of holiness…soon we will seek access to the facility to bring the Eucharist to our brothers and sisters; if they say no again, we will keep praying.”

It’s funny to think that the masked ICE Agents terrorizing communities are the same folks that spent two years saying they couldn’t breathe with a mask on.

Attention, United States!

Russian propagandists threaten striking American territory with a "squadron of 18 Poseidon torpedoes" to completely destroy the very notion of the US as a maritime civilization.

A federal prosecutor requested that a grand jury issue subpoenas for "every financial transaction conducted by Epstein and his six businesses" dating to 2003.

She even called one of Epstein's most important clients.

You can't make this up.

Another host, Eugene Daniels, asked Mr. Cuomo what he meant by diversity being a “weakness.”

“Diversity can be a weakness if you have antipathy among groups, Jonathan,” Mr. Cuomo said, mistaking Mr. Daniels for his co-host Jonathan Capehart, both of whom are Black.

Firstly, billionaires are not physically made of stocks, if a billionaire falls down a hole and expires his stock portfolio persists and continues to have value, secondarily, this is why one diversifies one's investment portfolio outside of the stock market, thirdly, okay, let's test this hypothesis

The law requires Trump to continue to fund SNAP.

Instead, he's trying to steal food from the mouths of hungry children.

cuomo has been conducting a campaign of vicious gutter racism against Muslims, Black people, and more, while working with Trump, and Schumer and Gillibrand had not been able to even endorse his opponent.

they both deserve to lose their seats.

Someday there will be a reckoning for the serial killings that the US government is engaged in on the oceans. Another admin should not refuse to extradite indicted officials to Intl Criminal Courts and senior military officers “just following orders” should not be exempted.

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here.

And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

Don't see a way out of this apart from the strict legal regulation of all generative "AI". Everything needs to be labeled, the use of the likeness of real people (alive or dead) without their express consent needs to be libel (even in a labeled video), and the fines need to be ruinous.

My perhaps controversial assessment is that when you share the propaganda of your enemies to call it out or to mock it… you’re still spreading their propaganda and maybe doing exactly what they hope you’ll do.
