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!

Magas don’t care about the truth.

We’ve been lied to by the entire GQP, 47, Congress, AND now Musk. They weave an alternative reality that the rethuglicans believe in. Thanks to Fox News, CNN, OAN, and NewsMax. They owe us our democracy back!

Black History Month!

McConnell played a game through Obama's presidency called "I Win if You Lose" and now we all lose. Those Supreme Court justices that were denied have really hurt us.

that Trumpers think the US Postal *SERVICE* should be a profit-making enterprise exposes the fallacy in their conception of government

The last failsafe of any republican form of government is that the military is loyal to the constitution and rule of law over a particular leader. Cross that line, and you get Venezuela today and every dictatorship in history.

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most. “JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional. “Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

The poster child for white male mediocrity, Pete Hegseth, is firing qualified Black men and women from the military.

"Six weeks ago, we had the strongest economy, employment, and stock market in history. ..All gone in 30 days."
