Hillary was right about everything.

NATO Holds Combat Exercises To Protect Eastern Border - W/O U.S.: NATO members continued their largest combat exercises of 2025 yesterday, testing their ability to rapidly deploy on the 32-nation alliance’s eastern border as worries grow over its most powerful member, the United States. Via the…

Father Pence is not having the β€˜King’s’ BS.

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Dark Pence is back.

Yes. But they are missing that much of this has to be performative. That’s what Trump is great at and Dems are awful at. You can’t just tell voters , you have to know how to sell voters. Trump gives sales pitches, Dems show charts. One goes viral. The other is ignored and forgotten

β€œ Kash Patel is a freak. And not the Rick James kind. It’s a thumbs down for crooked Kash. This is a guy who openly attacked the FBI and compromised its relationship with the intelligence community, and now he could be running the damn thing? That is just plain stupid.” β€” Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove

Donald Trump isn't interested in a smaller government, he wants a weaponized government. He doesn't want fewer federal employees, he just wants them loyal to him.

Nailed it…

Hey, here’s some of what @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social did today πŸ‘‹πŸ½

Hegseth's Ukraine bombshell and Trump's Putin call leave NATO reeling: BRUSSELS -- NATO allies are in a state of anger, denial and despair after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth effectively declared an end to America's role as the primary guarantor of European security, particularly over Ukraine. *…

I can’t unsee Samuel L. Jackson as Uncle Sam, it’s forever cemented in my mind. He was brilliant.

That only makes it more of a challenge.

CFPB - closed USAID - closed Medicaid - under attack NIH cancer funding - frozen Department of Education - under attack But do you know who just got a NEW government contract for $38,858,978 literally today? SpaceX β€” owned by Elon Musk

Trump is the first president to constantly wear makeup. Lol

Over 100 ICE agents spent 5 hrs in Chicago last week, arresting only 2. In Denver & Aurora, CO, over 400 agents were dispatched for migrant violence linked to Tren de Aragua. After knocking on hundreds of doors, only 1 member was arrested. (NYP, ABC News)

They suck equally hard.

Demand prison time for Musk, only Congress has the legal mandate to get rid or cut USAID. Cutting off the aid will cause thousands of deaths, especially among women and children around the world. That’s called mass murder.

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

What if there were some division or public service operation created that grounded all of us in principles of community and contribution? In my opinion - having gone through Army Basic Training - it should be difficult enough to strengthen mindsets and structured to where cooperation is essential.

The same people wailing about DEI literally can’t spell their own job title.

Don't call it a "detention camp" at Guantanamo. It's a CONCENTRATION CAMP.

As a father of five kids, I totally agree with this evergreen post.

That did not take long

A January 6 insurrectionist pardoned by Trump is now wanted for child sex solicitation. Andrew Taake, who pleaded guilty to attacking officers on J6, was already facing charges for soliciting sex from an undercover cop posing as a 15-year-old. Texas prosecutors are now seeking his arrest.

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

Just imagine.

Anyone an expert in coffee futures and prices, that could comment on the impact of a 25 PCT tariff on Columbia on the price of coffee for American consumers ?

Excellent post

Want a great slogan for midterms? "If you FAFO and are struggling because of Trump policies, we understand. The Dems are here for you. Tell us how we can help you " You get the point. FAFO will be the theme. Be the solution.

This is a slap in the face to American women. Pete Hegseth has a track record of disrespecting women service members, and multiple credible sexual assault allegations. Our troops deserve better.

Costco did not donate to any Trumplican platform. You can get an exclusive membership for $130/year, which equates to a little over $12 a month. You receive free shipping, a 2% discount on many services, etc. They pay $45k/year, provide health insurance, and let workers unionize www.costco.com
