The compelling Jon Stewart interview with Zohran Mamdani. As I comment in this article (which includes the video of the interview), the most important point is Zohran's 90,000 volunteers. Becoming mass movement that can transform the mood of the working class.

Blow up boats proven to be guilty of nothing; pardon a major drug trafficker. Very nice.

Putin propaganda: Russian victory inevitable. From coldly analytical Institute for Study of War: "a Russian victory in Ukraine is far from certain" Russ surround Pokrovsk for 118 days, still can't seize."

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

And why is there no huge uproar over this?
If telling the troops not to follow illegal orders is “sedition,” what do we call colluding with the Kremlin to manipulate the U.S. President into advancing Russian interests over America’s?

In newly leaked audio, Peter Thiel admits he urged JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral questions — including the ethical development of AI.

He goes even further, branding Leo “the woke American pope” and suggesting he’s a tool of the Antichrist.

My guess: Trump appointed Witkoff as his special envoy because he is the only person around him who is even more ignorant and dumber than he is. What say you?

Don't be surprised if Trump backs off his (really Putin's) "peace" plan for Ukraine. As was to be expected, it was condemned by the WSJ editors and even Republican senators are feeling emboldened enough to speak out against it. In his weakened state, can Trump stand up to all of them?

Any other day, news of Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning would have made banner headlines. Today, not even on front page of NYT. Trump/Mamdani love fest much better drama.

What a week in US politics. First Trump supports the Epstein files Transparancy Then Trump pushes Putin's "peace" plan for Ukraine. We thought we'd topped it all when Trump and Mamdani had a love fest, but no! At the end of the day Marjorie Taylor Greene announced she's resigning from congress!

Ukraine is under attack by the fascist connected Putin and Trump is siding with him. The only way to deal with aggressors is to stand up to them. Otherwise, we are taking the position of Chamberlain in relation to Hitler. I signed this petition and I hope you do too.
