“He’s not a monster. He just plays one in the White House.” Whether it’s Bill Maher’s obsequious attempt to normalize Trump, or Tucker Carlson’s fawning over Putin, weak men have been capitulating to power since the beginning of time.

Mirroring Russia's 2022 invasion strategy of Ukraine, the US Trump regime will deploy troops along the Panama Canal for what it claims is "training, exercises and "other activities"" after months of threatening invasion. Panamanians say the US of launching a “camouflaged invasion”. #panamainvasion

This story hasn’t gotten nearly enough attention. It is openly fraudulent what they’re doing.

Liberal Party Launch: Peter Dutton continued to criticise recent immigration being at historically high levels. While that's true over a short timeline, over the last 5 years, we've had LESS people arrive in Australia than usual. He knows this. #auspol #AusVotes2025 #factcheck 👇 Bonus fact check

Dems need to make it very clear that Bukele will end up like Noriega once they are back in power

The Secretary of Health and Human Services is a menace to public health every day he's in office. Donald Trump and the Senate GOP put him there.

For those who want the Ten Commandments displayed in every school in order to instill morality shouldn’t we wait until they work for those who are making the demand?

I was reading dead-tree books this evening, as I do, and read Sophie Gilbert's piece in the Atlantic on porn and then started the first few pages of Andrea Dworkin's "Right-Wing Women." Oh my. Gilbert needs to read Dworkin. Dworkin will help her to escape the porn prison. Break it down, even. 1/

Tomorrow's news today, from a contact in Gaza: "The Baptist Hospital is now being bombed with F 16 missiles. For your information, this is the only hospital that is still operating in Gaza. It is now out of service." (I've semi-confirmed. Watch this space.)

They figured out a way to rob Fort Knox.

All of this began with a Vegemite joke. This website has a problem with humourless scolds.

In a bid to support self-built low-cost housing, an architect who built his own property for $150,000, has released free plans for others to download and use.

Bingo

Consciousness of guilt is hard to contain when you have a powerful platform, immunity, dementia, and an uncontrolled craving to put forth an air of grandiosity.

As flights decrease so does the need for Pilots, flights attendants, workers in food service in airports, TSA staff, maintenance staff, hotel workers, transportation workers This is an actual example of how trickle down idiocy works.

This is basically conceding that the executive branch is sentencing random people to death with no due process or ability to reverse an error

"Jesus H. Christ on a warrantless wiretap, what the hell is Rubio running, a diplomatic institution or the Roman Curia?" www.esquire.com/news-politic...

Can we please start putting “wellness” in quotation marks?

Forgive the rant, but what the hell is this Administration doing?  Not gonna be easy to undo the damage, folks. But I’ve got some ideas on where to start.

Last weekend in Chicago, 1500 historians gathered for the Organization of American Historians' conference where leading scholars discussed little things like, oh, the fate of democracy. I guess if we add some horny Nazis next year maybe CNN will come out and listen to what we have to say?

Lavrov said today that Russia cares more about people than territories. Meanwhile street burials are appearing in Pokrovsk - totally devastated just like other cities that Russia supposedly ‘cared’ about Photos: libkos

Hopefully Someone Is Explaining To Him That Tariffs Only Work If Strategically Placed…

🔥 FARMER: “This I-told-you-so, it’s I-wish-you-would’ve-listened… China is more prepared this time… they just canceled the 3 largest soybean contracts… Trump isn’t playing chess or checkers with China - they’re sitting in a corner playing with themselves.” Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DIW56aF...

Australians are too smart for this shit.

In this case “moving fast and breaking things” is destroying the lives of every day Americans and this great country.

Couldn't have said it better myself, Rachel! talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/doge-...

Gannett, by far America's biggest newspaper chain, bows down to Donald:

I know so many Trump voting veterans that this is going to piss off. Let me go pop some popcorn and tune my violin.

So we have the Times hiring Daily Caller reporters to profile Real America's Voice reporters. There are so many examples of major outlets elevating people from the right and relatively few instances of them doing this with any notably progressive voices

Only one is the “terrorist”

Here is Steve Witkoff securing his spot in the history books when people point out that the US Trump regime sided with Putin during World War 3.

If you feel like being inspired by a big law firm, here's the opening to Sussman Godfrey's lawsuit against Trump and his executive order targeting the firm. It still is amazing other firms caved quickly to Trump's mob-like and unconstitutional shakedown. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

RFK Jr Would stick dirty needles in his veins, filled with Heroin some guy stuffed up his azz to smuggle into the country.... But he says Measles vaccines are bad
