Putin is sitting in Moscow and claims his army has captured a city that the Ukrainian president is personally visiting.

There are cowardly tyrants and there are brave, elected leaders, and it is disastrous that the President of the US favors the first group!

SLAVA UKRAINI!

"When power fears the light, truth is the only torch left standing."

We have never seen a presidency as criminal, lawless, and corrupt as the fascist authoritarian Trump regime. No other presidency is even close. 😳👇

The US voted with Russia, China and N. Korea against most of the civilized world. This is where we are at.

If the FTC and other (formerly) independent agencies are placed under the president's thumb, America can kiss impartiality goodbye. Opportunities for corruption will be legion. My story this week w @dlknowles.bsky.social www.economist.com/united-state...

There is something distinctly Third Reich about this woman and the United States now. The parallel with trains for deportations can not be overlooked.
The Department of Homeland Security recently signed a contract worth nearly $140 million to purchase six Boeing 737 planes for deportations. https://wapo.st/3KpFEkd

Donald Trump diverted these brave men and women from their vital public safety operations and deployed them against the very communities they took an oath to serve.

Today’s ruling is unmistakably clear: the federalization of the California National Guard must end.

The airtime afforded to this horrible, offensive old man is unwarranted.

It is about time for a journalist to challenge him regarding facts, racism and manners.

By the way, Europe is much more civilised than the gun filled, USA.
President Trump, "In my opinion many European countries will not be viable countries any longer"

"If you take a look at London, you have a Mayor named Khan, he's a horrible mayor. An incompetent mayor. But he's a horrible vicious disgusting mayor"

The time has surely come for us to tell the bullying Americans, 'Enough'

America murders people in boats, has gangs disappearing people on its streets, hounds political enemies and is increasingly cowered under dictator Trump. The USA is no longer our ally. We must stand with Ukraine.

As ever, a timid interview from the BBC's Nick Robinson who allows a former US diplomat to state nonsense regarding Europe and the UK, depicting Trump in a favourable light. This total garbage from the United States needs challenging, and the truth must be told.

2/3 of Reform contributions come from donors with offshore overseas interests or resident abroad, somewhat ironically for a party so big on nationalism and sovereignity.

This is horrendous, yet it appears terror is now a normal occurrence in the United States.
My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

I remain utterly disgusted at this scandal. How on earth canbit STILL be making so long to compensate these people and why are the management skunks who did this still free?

An entire room full of powerful old white people smiling and laughing as the president dehumanizes black immigrants and the first black president.

Just fucking pathetic.
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."
