And just like that, the ‘No New Wars’ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.

If Iran has even the beginnings of a nuclear program (weeks LOFL) the US should go after the person who single-handedly allowed that to happen.

In 1776 we fought the redcoats. In 2025 we are fighting the red hats. Both times to get rid of a "king".

BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

I’d love to know what Macron knows and what he just told Meloni. That’s one hell of a reaction. #G7

Trump is sending ICE to blue cities to enact the "largest mass deportation program in history" and Chicago is at the top of the list. I'm calling for every Democratic leader and candidate to stand against ICE, to call for its abolition, and to materially support immigrants. Inaction is complicity.

Senator Mike Lee of Utah should be investigated by the FBI for inciting violence against a sitting government official. #Mikelee #senatormikelee

Finally asked my husband if I could throw away the fake plant that’s been on the kitchen windowsill for *three years* that I assumed he had some kind of emotional attachment to and he said “that’s a fake plant??”

California Governor Gavin Newsom said that President Trump "has created the conditions" surrounding the Los Angeles protests. The governor went on to call Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard "a manufactured crisis.” youtube.com/watch?v=qOA3...

"I voted for lawless, anonymous, masked, and unchecked police" is one hell of a jump from "eggs cost too much."

I think we’ve found the source of the violence

In a world of Stephen Millers, be *anyone* else.

"Yes, son, he committed fraud, she's in contempt of court. That bunch over there are inside traitors, and those ridiculous-looking violent people are insurrectionists." "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

There's only one way to fix the political disease in the USA. KILL "Citizens United" ruling with legislation outlawing ALL private political donations in the USA. END all paid political lobbying. Limited PUBLIC funding ONLY of all elected offices. Brief election campaigns. STRICT term limits.

To anyone who wondered, what could go wrong if we elected as president a highly volatile, deeply dishonest, simple-minded cretin with a revenge fetish, the answer is THIS. All of THIS.

This is Mertarvik, Alaska, population 300. It’s a new town. Its residents, the vast majority of whom are Yup’ik, began moving in around 2019. The move was by necessity: The nearby village where many residents previously lived, Newtok, is sinking, its riverbanks eroding. THREAD 🧵

Old: Drain the swamp. New: Pardon the swamp.

A Message for All those MAGAt’s that still invest their Money in this Demented Clown 🤡. How’s Your Bottomline doing? 🤨😂🤔

reputable medical journals keep saying that RFK and his pro-disease friends are full of shit and so naturally they must be shunned www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

They’re still rolling in u-hauls!? Arrest every single one of those assholes!

He was an uninformed idiot in the first term. Even with such a low bar, his incompetence and stupidity is even worse in his second term.

RFK Jr. is reportedly going to forbid government scientists from publishing in the world’s most respected medical journals — the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, etc. It’s going to take decades to repair the damage done by this administration.

Kind of thought refusing to release innocent people while simultaneously continuing to pardon guilty people might cause a bigger stir in the press.

This old paw paw is Senile

Well payed, Harvard, well played. Harvard offers FREE American Government course.

*BREAKING NEWS* The non partisan Congressional budget office has just confirmed that the bill tonight includes not only cuts to Medicaid and Obamacare but, are you sitting down Seniors? $500 BILLION CUTS TO MEDICARE!! 🤬 They continue to lie to us!

Patrick Gaspard was the U.S. ambassador to South Africa from 2013 to 2016. 🇺🇸 🇿🇦

While I appreciate the "lock him up" and "impeach him" sentiments (and I'm with you), if Mueller, Garland, and impeachment taught us anything, its that 1) SCOTUS is corrupt and 2) We have to do this ourselves. As I've been saying for nearly 8 years: it's up to us. Always has been.

Casar: What we discovered last night, which is really breaking news, is that they’re not just robbing Medicaid—it turns out they’re also planning to rob Medicare of nearly half a billion dollars if they pass this bill.

BREAKING: Florida's prosecutor’s office launched a criminal probe into Hope Florida PAC promoted by Ron and Casey DeSantis, for illegally diverting $10M from a Medicaid settlement contractor to... themselves. 🤣 KARMA TIME.

Last year my wife had breast cancer and a double mastectomy. This morning, for the first time ever, she was challenged in the changing rooms at the swimming pool. Her breasts were not what make her a woman - but, breasts or not, she is entitled to dignity and protection from vigilantes.
