BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.

He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.

Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

If you’re a Pennsylvanian and you go on Pennie today to buy health insurance, reply here with what you see compared to last year. The big increase in price is because Trump raised your taxes and both our senators refused to do anything about it in time.

This man was part of a coalition of Reagan-era apartheid apologists who opposed U.S. opening talks with the African National Congress which he called a terrorist org. He has been a right wing activist for decades. His son was part of the Jan 6th mob and was convicted (later pardoned by Trump). 1/
So you should really watch this. Just 2 minutes. But a window into the truly radical nature of the people Trump is nominating.

When pressed today, the nominee to be Ambassador to South Africa refuses to oppose reinstituting laws to prevent black people from voting in America.

You might have this or that problem with it but the No Kings branding is the equivalent of flashing an asshole driver a thumbs down instead of the finger. What are you gonna do, get mad at a thumbs down? What are you gonna do, say "yes, I'd like a king"? You sound like such a moron!
Man with oakleys and a baseball cap in a pickup truck driving past the No King's protest screaming I LOVE THE KING! We all just kind of stood there laughing. Where's your self-respect, American?
