The president of peace.

Congress didn’t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.

i think that it should be legal to hit the journalists posting orgasmically about the US attacking Iran with hammers

I have some incredibly bad news for you about the job Sir Keir Starmer was assigned, before he was ever leader.

🇬🇧 #ToriesGone353 🇺🇸 Trump has just joined Israel’s Illegal #WarOnIran, by dropping US Bombs on the Country Directly! #ImpeachTrump #The25th 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇪🇺 #StopArmingIsrael Please Sign/RP the Petition Calling on the UK PM Keir Starmer to Oppose #TrumpsWarOnIran! Many Thanks 👇 stoptrump.org.uk/petition-tru...

It’s hard to pick the worst leader in the world today because we’re spoiled for choice, but Netanyahu, Trump, Modi, Milei, Orban, bin Salman, and Putin lead the pack. We’re at a dangerous time in history, which is why leaders like Carney and Starmer should be careful not to align with fascists.

The only thing I can say about Keir Starmer is thank God he wasn't PM back in May 1940. He will go along dutifully with whatever Trump claims. Canadians would be fools to think this punter would have our back in a showdown with Trump. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Oh, Canadians KNOW that Starmer/the UK is not family that we can count on to have our back. #cdnpoli #ukpoli

I have no clue if Iran is still capable of doing any harm to Americans here or abroad. That's not my primary concern. What concerns me the most is that we've got a sociopath as POTUS, a military now violating their oath with unconstitutional strikes, and a complicit Congress and SCOTUS.

Watch gas prices go boom now. The putative anti-war anti-inflation president is screwing you on both, America, for a polling bump, bc he can’t not be president; he’s terrified.

Good thing the regime that’s trying to start WW3 hasn’t just spent the last 5 months decimating US soft power abroad, diverting most domestic counterterrorism assets to abducting people en masse, and compiling/analysing data on all its citizens to potentially target opposition with a military draft.

Beyond parody.

And when you won't, you're labeled difficult, angry, unforgiving etc. I can live with that (and have).

Wow so you’re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it? You’re kidding.

Take note.

Much love to Portland, Oregon! We will beat the fire nation! Hopefully more cities follow. We can overwhelm them

Happy Winter solstice Australia.

gotta say i'm surprised we're this far in and no law-abiding firearm owner has caused these masked clowns some problems yet

Healthcare decisions should be made by a patient and their doctor, not politicians. My latest Executive Order makes Delaware a shield state for gender-affirming care, protecting the data of both patients and providers.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

I don't think we're in a democracy anymore. Unmarked secret police kidnapping people off the street? A dictator mobilizing the military against civilians? Defying court orders? Ignoring due process? Arresting political opponents? Democracy has left the building. We CAN & MUST get it back, though.

"We establish no religion in this country, we command no worship, we mandate no belief. Nor will we ever. Church and State are, and must remain, separate." --President Ronald Reagan, whom I usually never quote

BREAKING: A judge has ordered the RELEASE of Mahmoud Khalil

GLAAD’s @inlayterms.bsky.social talked to @time.com about the best things to say to someone who is coming out. Top phrases include: “I love you, and I support you.” “Is there anything I can do to be there for you?” “Thank you for being you.” “Thank you so much for trusting me with your truth.”

Ouch. #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

💯👏👏

Last night in Portland, an ICE protester was hit by a car.

It’s vaccine Friday going to get my arm shot up before some frog throat worm headed bitch destroys medicine/science even more.

Quite simply the most pathetic man on the planet.

NEW: Pope Leo’s newly appointed Bishop, Michael Pham, outside the court in San Diego: “We need to speak up for the voiceless in our society - and we will.” The video then shows masked ICE agents leaving without snatching anyone today. More of this resistance nationwide! 👏 (🎥 PSL San Diego)

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

So now there may be a war because #TrumpleThinSkin couldn't stand an Obama success?

O'Donnell sums it up perfectly. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyev...

Now that’s an idea…🤔

THIS!

Yup. Lawlessness is his MO, so why shouldn't it be everyone else's as well? He believes he and his servants are immune. And it appears he's correct.

Because the felon and his fellow felons want to hurt women and to make them men's slaves, they are eliminating women's safe homes. So, yeah, even more women will continue to die at the hands of men.

This is SO freaking sad.
