Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Dear Mr. Jack Daniels, Canada is your biggest market. Maybe you should explain this to your legislators who threaten us. We will take all the steps necessary to defend our nation from a hostile foreign power including filling the shelves with great Canadian whiskey. www.bbc.com/news/article...

What we saw last night was nothing but lies beyond count. The twisting of good projects overseas into dark evil and almost 5 minutes of lies about Social Security recipients. It’s all twisting reality so fools are eager to tear down the very system protecting them. They’re coming for ALL of it.

Trudeau: We’re probably going to keep booing the American anthem. But let me tell Americans, we're not booing you. We're booing a policy that is designed to hurt us. But we're Canadian. We're going to fight. And we're going to win.

Trudeau: He has said repeatedly, what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy. Because that will make it easier to annex us. First of all, that's never going to happen. We will never be the 51st state.

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

If the Trump-Musk agenda is so popular, why are Republicans hiding from their constituents? Keep fighting. Keep calling. Keep showing up. Keep causing good trouble.

Speaker Johnson has told his GOP members to avoid holding town hall events because Americans are angry about #PresidentMusk using a chainsaw to dismantle important agencies like the VA & SSA. As @governorwalz.mn.gov has already offered, Dems need to fill the void & host these event in every district

The market is tanking, Trump just launched a trade war, we told Cyber Command to stand down against Russia, Trump is rolling out a massive crypto scam, and drug dealers have started selling eggs because the profit margin is better. You aren’t distracting us with culture war BS.
