On Sunday, around 400 people attended the first preparatory committee of the Syrian National Dialogue conference in Homs. Report by @thenewarab.bsky.social. www.newarab.com/news/syrian-...

Once you realize that Trump and all the MAGA Republicans are working for Russia and Saudi Arabia, not America, everything they do makes sense.

Every accusation is a confession with these dopes. In this case, calling someone obviously brilliant dumb.

It’s going to be quite a hearing before Judge Ho tomorrow on the DOJ‘s motion to dismiss the atom’s case. When the judge asks Ed Sullivan, who stepped up and agreed to sign the motion, why he did so, you can bet that he’s going to tell the truth and cite Bove’s strong arming. No reason to lie.

It's really this simple, folks.

Under President Biden’s leadership, inflation was decreasing. Under Trump's economic malpractice, it's increasing. This isn't rocket science.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

I really don’t care, do u?

The very first thing he did was a Nazi salute.

I cannot stress how an overwhelming number of Americans would be outraged by this if they knew it was happening. So tell them. You low information voter friends. Your Trump-ish relatives. Tell them. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/17/b...

Knowledge is power…

This caught fire on X.

If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat. Now is a time for courage. www.cnn.com/2025/02/16/p...

Whatever state you're in, I hope you can go to one of these revolutionary events tomorrow at Noon ☮️🎵🔥

If we confirm Kash Patel, knowing what we are getting, we will only have ourselves to blame.

"Suddenly, and not accidentally, people who work for the American federal government are having the same experience as people who find themselves living under foreign occupation" www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Mitch McConnell voting no on terrible cabinet picks because he doesn’t have to run for reelection is all the proof you need that we must have term limits. You shouldn’t only have a spine because you don’t have to run again. We are breeding chicken shit power hungry electeds.

What the US is experiencing right now is fascism. There's no other word for it and pretending that it's verboten to say so diminishes the truth as much as they are diminishing the truth. It's fascism. It's arrived.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but Canada is NEVER going to be America's 51st state. Anyone who thinks it will happen is a fucking moron.

The National Association of Home Builders explains what happens if we make inputs for home construction, such as Canadian lumber, more expensive.

💥 New Zealand knows what’s up!!

do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you

Such an important point… “The country has been hardened by a nine-year deliberate campaign of dehumanization.” — @NicolleDWallace We didn’t get here overnight. This wasn’t a quick process.

Kristi Noem is a cosplaying weirdo. So cringe.

Trump FROZE all hiring for FAA Flight Tower Controls, making our airports less safe. THIS is what happens when you put PROFITS OVER PEOPLE. No head of FAA either because Musk said it was too expensive. This isn't Twitter, this is our lives! Trump should be charged with 64 counts of manslaughter.

Senator Adam Schiff goes off about Kash Patel at his Senate confirmation hearing: "How did we get here?!?! Where we are defending a nominee like this, who makes songs with convicts who attack law enforcement? How did we get here?!?" 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Kash Patel testified under oath today that he wasn’t sure who right-wing Nazi talk show host Stew Peters is. Stew? Never heard of him …

exactly. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Sen. Schiff presses Kash Patel to look at the Capitol Police officers behind him. Patel doesn't. "I want you to look at them if you can, if you have the courage … and tell them you're proud of what you did. Tell them you're proud that you raised money off of people that assaulted their colleagues."

Kash Patel testified today that he didn’t know who Stew Peters was despite the fact that he was a guest on his show 8 times.

Well said, Pete Buttigieg
