BBC News coverage of "peace talks" in Geneva could have come straight from Russia Today.🤔

So King Donald the Mad failed to win the Nobel Peace prize but his alleged new "Peace Plan for Ukraine" shows he's doing his damnedest best to win "Kremlin Employee of the Month".

No way should Russia be allowed to join the G7. Europe, Japan and Canada must oppose this.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

You heard it here folks!!!
I’m among the approximately 6 million Americans who are hoping to fly home to spend Thanksgiving with our families.

If my flight is canceled due to the shortage of air traffic controllers, it is 100% Trump’s fault and I’ll never forget that.
#TrumpShutdown
TAPPER: Do you have any numerical idea of how many Americans will not be able to be with their families for Thanksgiving because of this?

DUFFY: I think the number is going to be substantial

Noem attempted to procure two new luxury jets to support travel - including personal travel - for herself and the deputy secretary "at a cost to the taxpayer of $200m."

They're living like royalty with the help of Congress, while the people of the United States are struggling for food and shelter.

I would just like to ask the Republican Party to please put Stephen Miller in front cameras as much as possible from now until the midterms because he is such a likable & charismatic person with so many amazing & popular ideas for people who aren’t white Christian nationalists.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

Ice agents crashing into US citizens then forcibly detaining them.

They don’t know how to hold guns. They clearly don’t have any training. They obviously aren’t following the laws.

This is embarrassing for our country and dangerous for our citizens.

Is Trump seriously selling bricks from the demolished East Wing of the White House and pocketing the cash?💰 I wouldn’t put anything past him!

I have to say that Trump’s demolition of The East Wing has gotten to me. It symbolizes a deep sense of despair and dread that I have felt since the election.

He is a cheater unleashed. It doesn’t make any sense and nothing is the normal we used to know. Anyone I know who voted for this is evil.
