Without due process, this could be you. It could be me. It could be any or all of us. It doesn’t matter who you voted for. Or the color of your skin. You must understand what is truly at stake here. All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.

Recently China cancelled all LNG contracts with the US, weeks after signing a deal with Woodside in Australia. Australia has zero tariffs on Chinese EVs, Tesla stinks & US car companies left long ago. Australian beef is replacing US exports… and Donald Trump wants the Aussie PM to kiss his arse?

It's time to start reminding people: LILIES ARE DEADLY FOR CATS. The leaves, the petals, the stem, even drinking a bit of vase water or licking a few grains of pollen from their fur can cause fatal kidney failure. ⚠️ www.fda.gov/animal-veter...

As 60 Minutes laid bare Russia’s war crimes, Trump erupted - not in grief, not in outrage, but in defense of himself and, by extension, his master Putin. No sorrow for murdered children, no defense of Ukraine - only rage that the Kremlin’s crimes were exposed. His allegiance is unmistakable.
