🚨NEW: The head of the US military base in Greenland has been FIRED for an email to base personnel distancing herself from JD Vance’s attack on Denmark. Col. Susannah Meyers’s email was aimed at ensuring unity between the Danish, Greenlander & US staff on the base. The Pentagon fired her for it.

I love this. Make fun of them.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

YES!

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

She's so right.

Nobody is saying this. They have to conjure up imaginary libs to argue with since they can’t win a debate with real ones on this issue.

RFK Jr: "By September we will know what has caused the autism epidemic and we will be able to eliminate those exposures."

We left this interview with Sen. Booker more inspired than ever. Listen now on the MeidasTouch Podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s... Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/1yBH...

Only a mentally ill person would think they can be a draft dodger, consistently insult veterans, active duty military, and dead heroes, and think they deserve to have a military parade in their own honor… Just sick!

The person who runs the Libs of TikTok account says she "arrested some criminal illegal aliens" with Kristi Noem this morning in Arizona and promises some "exclusive" social media content "coming soon." She's also wearing a badge in this picture.

I’m just sayin’. St Augustine FL is a town of 14,000. In a red county. And we’re doing this. #handsoff #50501 #April5 AND we have some spicy signs!

Tens of thousands rally against Trump at DC ‘Hands Off’ protest

NEW: Incredible scenes in Washington DC now. Tens of thousands on the National Mall for the #HandsOff protest against Trump & Musk. There must be over a million people protesting across every US state today. #FiftyFiftyOne #HandsOff2025 (🎥 Alejandro Alvarez)

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

"In South Carolina, legislators are trying to pass a bill that would classify abortion as homicide, punishable by the death penalty." When I think it can't get crazyer... www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The Shining City on a Hill has turned into a steaming pile of shit.

Day after day, Chinese rescue teams haul children and elderly people from collapsed buildings as cameras beam the thanks of grateful survivors around the world. Russian medical teams show off field hospitals erected in a flash to tend the wounded.

“Kennedy’s team requested that Marks turn over data on cases of brain swelling and deaths caused by the measles vaccine—data that Marks said doesn’t exist because there have been no such confirmed cases in the U.S.” www.wsj.com/health/healt...

Uhmmm -- WHO voted forthis PoS???

The injustice against this man is one I think about daily, even amidst the avalanche of injustices by which we are all being terrorized. Kilmar Abrego Garcia is still unjustly imprisoned in the El Salvadoran slave prison. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Perfect!

Now that’s a screenshot. > @atrupar.com
