I'm so angry about having to live with the chaos of Trump for another four years. So, I'm resisting for the next four years. Pro-choice, pro-LBGTQ+, pro-democracy, pro-Constitution, pro-income equality, pro-universal health care. Against MAGAS, Trump....

A breath of fresh air from the younger generation. Just what the Dems need more of.
Her policies are right on.

He's 83 years old. Just the age that Trump will hopefully be sent to prison for the rest of his life.

Very disturbed, young Republicans that have been indoctrinated by FOX, Trump, the Republican party, and their families to be hateful racists. Sad to see the next generation just as horrible as this current generation of Republicans.

Zohran Mamdani is a self confessed socialist. Be careful New Yorkers - you could end up like socialist Denmark...

Based on historical data, routine U.S. foreign assistance to Argentina has been modest:
FY 2023: $8.38 million in foreign aid was committed.
FY 2018-2020: Around $2.5 million annually was designated for bilateral assistance.

Born James Donald Bowman
Then, changed to James David Hamel
Vance spent more than two decades as James David “J.D.” Hamel.
Then, he decided to change his name again, to Vance — the last name of the grandmother who raised him.
Now, James Dipshit Vance (JD)

Idaho is consistently and overwhelmingly a Republican state. It is one of the most reliably conservative states in the U.S.
Therefore, they will obey Trump/Hegseth.

Now that Trump and Netanyahu have destroyed GAZA, and annihilated Palestinians, Trump, Netanyahu, and Kushner will do what they had planned all along.
Kushner stated in 2024 that Gaza's waterfront property "could be very valuable" and that Israel should "move the people out and then clean it up".

Let me get this straight, the US gave Netanyahu $17.9 billion in military aid to Israel from October 2023 to October 2024 to slaughter Palestinians in Gaza, but now Netanyahu and Trump are the saviors with a peace deal?

If every single Senator doesn't speak out about this, then the whole lot of them are just MAGA.

Trump Takes Aim At ‘Corrupt’ Adam Schiff As Next Target In His Political Retribution Tour

Trump demanded authorities “look into” the senator after former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James were indicted.

And of course neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) nor the Department of Justice (DOJ) will investigate or do anything about it. Corruption generation after generation in the Trump family.

Just a reminder:

You are correct to ask that question.
There are literally hundreds of medical associations, starting with the American Medical Association, who should be speaking up about Trump's dementia and cognitive decline.
Why aren't they?

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

Trump, Noem, Homan, all horrible human beings. Vile, hateful, the scum of the earth.

Linda McMahon is facing a civil lawsuit alleging she enabled the sexual abuse of minors during her time as a co-founder and CEO of WWE.
She is dismantling the Depart. of Ed. She knows nothing about education, but does know about abusing children.
Dismantling public education is abusive to children.

“I thought we could have a, you know, reasonable conversation,” Governor Kotek said, speaking of her mindset going into her Tuesday meeting with Noem when the cabinet member arrived in Portland.
“But, you know, it’s hard to have a rational conversation with irrational people.”
Perfectly stated.
