He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.

Might be time to update your priors; it might not have been typhus that tore through Napoleon's army on the Russian campaign but rather two other fevers—one foodborne, the other from body lice

DNA from Napoleon's 1812 army identifies pathogens likely responsible for the army's demise during retreat from Russia

In the summer of 1812, French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte led about half a million soldiers to invade the Russian Empire. But by December, only a fraction of the army remained alive. Historical records...

Lawsuits against banks with Epstein ties may shed new light on financier’s crimes

Experts say claim banks enabled Epstein will be difficult to prove but other outcomes could provide solace to victims For years, survivors of Jeffrey Epstein have demanded justice. For a while, it seemed like they would get it. Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s ex-girlfriend, was found guilty of sex trafficking four years ago for her involvement in the late financier’s sexual abuse of teen girls – and sentenced to 20 years imprisonment.

Have you gotten your notice from your insurance telling you the new rates for next year? Ours is going UP by 18,000 dollars. More than doubling what we are paying now.
This is why the Democrats have refused to open the government. There are going to be a lot more people getting these notices..

I’m sure it’s merely a coincidence that the guy who bankrupted casinos is now responsible for the first, second, and third longest government shutdowns in our country’s history.

The cowardice of Big Law extends beyond the handful of firms that have become Trump’s collaborators. Many more are simply hiding and hoping not to be noticed.

We have reached the point where the *American Bar Association* cannot find attorneys willing to represent them in litigation against the Trump administration.

www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Trump’s orders unnerved many in the industry and appear to have discouraged some large firms from taking on cases they would otherwise have backed, lawyers say. That has dried up a formerly reliable supply of help from large law offices for people and institutions challenging government policies.

The American Bar Association, which joined or filed four lawsuits against the Trump administration, “has experienced difficulty finding previously willing law firms to represent it,” its attorneys wrote in court papers. In one case, the organization said, it was unable to join a lawsuit challenging the administration because it could not get attorneys in time.

Just checking: the republicans that attacked and sent marshals to arrest Texas dems for not showing up to work (in an effort to protect voting rights, btw) are the same republicans that are not showing up to work, yeah?

This is the guy who lied on the stand at a trial in LA, telling the jury he witnessed the defendant assault the ICE officer, when the video showed the ICE officer assault the defendant. The jury took an hour to acquit. He's referred to immigrants as "filth, trash, and scum."

NEVER FORGET: In July 2025, the GOP passed the BBB with $75B in additional, multi-year funding to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

BUT the GOP Congress will NOT negotiate to EXTEND ACA Subsidies for 20M+ Americans for $32B. #GOPPriorities

This POS, Timothy Mellon is heir to bank BNY Mellon, and just ‘donated’ funds for military pay.

FYI, he is also being sued for his and BNY Mellon’s role in #EpsteinTrafficking

Expensive pardon or birds of a feather should go fuck themselves and fall out of the nest together?
