America is fighting back against Trump, the Trump regime, and the Trumpism that has wholly consumed the GOP. Saturday in L.A., over 36,000 people gathered and stood strong at a Fighting Oligarchy event — featuring Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Sunday, 20,000 people…

The Trump admin has ordered State Department employees to report on any instances of coworkers displaying “anti-Christian bias” as part of its effort to implement a sweeping new EO on supporting employees of Christian faith working in the federal government. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

A daughter was very happy when her father returned from the frontline. She cannot hold back her emotions, just like us. Let every child in Ukraine live to see this moment. Let every father come home. Let this war end - with justice and freedom.

🇺🇸 Dear Americans, don’t be fooled. Victoria Spartz does not represent Ukraine or its people. Being born in the USSR and moving to the U.S. decades ago doesn’t give her a moral right to speak for modern Ukraine.👇

🇺🇦🇺🇸 Ukraine will send a team to Washington next week for talks on a new U.S.-Ukraine mineral deal. Kyiv seeks terms ensuring fair control over its resources while securing U.S. investment. Talks follow tensions over a leaked draft. apnews.com/article/trum...

Not joking: as of today Donald Trump is the absolute greatest destroyer of wealth the country has ever had

Ukrainians NEVER wanted this damn war. But for their survival... for the right to exist as Ukrainians, to live in peace, in freedom, in their own country they have no choice but to fight. And to win. What would you do if your very existence was at stake? Never stop supporting Ukraine!
