For years, Trump has said calling women beautiful will end his political career. It clearly hasn't.

For all wannabe rhymers or frogs
All inflatifa animals, cats and dogs
Silliness and fun drives fascists mad
Show your joy, dont be sad
Dancing and singing dont look like a warzone
Party for ICE and send them home
Dont be tempted, dont play their game
Send them giggling, or full of shame

Christiane Amanpour: Netanyahu talked about territorial dominance before he ever even spoke about the hostages. This will go down badly in history. It is unconscionable that we have not been able to tell the full story to the world. I've never seen any democratic nation forbid outside journalists.

"There is a cult of ignorance in the U.S. & there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding it's way through our political & cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is as good as your knowledge."

Boris Johnson, "I tried to get the scientists to say that lockdown was a bad idea"

There were 26,000 covid deaths because Boris Johnson ignored scientists and delayed the first lockdown by a week

Susan Lynn Spirit Navigator @spiritnavigator.bsky.social · 22h

Getting rid of illegal farm workers so they can be hire visa workers from other countries and treat them like slaves.
Seriously.
DEM Congress is aware and tried to ADD an anti slavery to the bill.
Listen to this woman.
She explains it all. I have seen all this happening!

Some say arming lunatics & the resulting murders they commit is simply the price we must pay to protect the freedom of armed lunatics to commit murders.

Let’s remember all the victims of senseless gun violence.

In Memory of
MELISSA HORTMAN
Former Minnesota House Speaker
1970 - 2025
Taken far too soon in a targeted attack.
A voice for justice, clean energy, and equality.
We honor her legacy, leadership, and courage.

While politicians and judges debate the legality of Texas National Guard troops’ presence in Illinois, columnists and creators are wondering: “Are we in a civil war?”

‘Are We in a Civil War?’ Texas Troops Are Still in Illinois, but It’s Getting Messy

The escalating tension between the states has devolved into personal insults, a legal battle, and fears of an actual second civil war.
