Don’t let Trump lie to you He and his circle did NOT support the CDU in the German elections — Musk and Vance endorsed the neo-Nazi AfD Germany is another LOSS for far-right pro-Putin extremism

“Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. Government failure, stock market crash, and dictatorial alliances are not popular.” — Timothy Snyder

As the dust gradually settles let’s remember 80% of Germans today rejected AfD/fascism and told Elon Musk to do one. Thank you Germany

We should send newly confirmed expert, RFK Jr. to Wuhan so he can expose himself to this new virus and let us know if everything is ok. If he looks good after a few months they can send him back home! 😜 I’m sure he wouldn’t want to endanger anyone with vaccines! www.newsweek.com/new-coronavi...

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

During WWII, four brothers from the same Jewish family signed up to fight against the Nazis. Only one of the four brothers survived. His grandson is the current President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky. Sláva Ukrayíni!

Hey @JDVance, and @elonmusk, and @realDonaldTrump it looks like the Auschwitz Memorial wants to educate you. STOP LYING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

They're more concerned about not offending the "MAGA right" than defending their own country. Conservatives have suddenly cornered the market on self-loathing Canadians. Enjoy the fruits of your labours.

Poilievre who has spent much of his time as leader slamming Canada as “broken” appeared on social media urging Canadians to fly the flag to show their patriotism. That represents a pathetic, futile tactic for someone who embraced the truckers’ convoy that used the flag as a divisive symbol. #cdnpoli
