🔥 COUNTRY SINGER @bryanandrewsmusic.bsky.social : "You don't get to call yourself a Christian and laugh when families are torn apart — and think it's okay that the highest court in the land just gave a green light to ICE agents to target people because they’re brown or speaking Spanish.”

Trump bailed out Argentina, who then undercut US farmers by selling their soybeans to China, who used be our biggest customer for soybeans before Trump drove them away with his tariffs.

This is Trump 3D chess in action.

Arrogance, Ignorance and Idiocy.

Breaking: Text messages of Young Republican groups across the country have just been leaked.

They talk about putting Democrats in “gas chambers,” attacking “Jews,” calling Black people “watermelon people,” calling to “rape” their enemies, and bringing back slavery.

There's always a risk if you invoke Hitler or Mussolini when talking U.S. politics that people will roll their eyes or dismiss you as being over the top. But in the case of Trump, you ignore the comparison at your peril. My article on what Trump is up to: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-is-n...

Trump is now working to secure one party rule--just like Mussolini and Hitler did

History is screaming at us!

Trump and the Israeli government give Netanyahu a standing ovation.

This man's failings led to the largest slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust, and the subsequent largest slaughter of Palestinians in history.

The most catastrophic Israeli leader in history does not deserve this praise.

Now they’re indicting Letitia James…the woman who finally held Trump’s feet to the fire. You can smell the revenge all the way from Mar-a-Lago. This isn’t justice…it’s payback wrapped in paperwork. And every American with a brain knows it.
