Circling back to make sure you don’t miss this part… SCHUMER: One thing I am known to be very good at is how to win Senate seats. We won the two seats in Georgia. We got Jon Ossoff & Raphael Warnock. EVERYONE IN TOUCH WITH REALITY: Stacey Abrams would like a word. @schumer.senate.gov Step down!

Utterly predictably, Putin rejects the unconditional ceasefire offered by Ukraine, sends Trump off on the errands of making the Russian invasion easier and denying Ukrainian sovereignty, while Trump claims he has accomplished something.

Louis DeJoy's wishlist to DOGE includes slashing 10,000 jobs, closing tens of thousands of postal retail centers, and gutting oversight. This will devastate seniors, small businesses, rural communities, and anyone else who relies on an affordable and reliable Postal Service.

Before the war, we had a home, education, and most importantly, my beloved father 💔. Now, he's gone. Our house is rubble, our dreams shattered. Even with the ceasefire, we live in a tent ⛺, struggling every day. The suffering hasn’t ended. Please help us Donate & share: 🙏🫂 gofund.me/7a021cb4

Musk has pledged 238M shares -- 58% of his shares! (Likely max debt of $47B) We don't need to know the margin call ($100-114 👀) to see his empire crumble. His stock's worth $93.7B. If it drops to $114 he'd be worth $47B and owe $47B. See the problem? There's more 👇 www.splinter.com/tesla-is-cra...

I will never drive more than half an hour for an interview again. Can’t believe I drove over 1.5 hours each way to be rejected like this. I will admit my impressions of going down south in Missouri haven’t been well even more bigots who are normalized there. Not a shock you find confederate flags

📌We need strong leadership that will stand up to the fascists in the GOP who are ignoring our courts and listening to Putin. 📌That Chuck Schumer's leading our opposition in the Senate would be laughable if not so damn sad. We are in a crisis of confidence. 📌Do the right thing and resign, Chuck.

For as much hatred people have for Bernie, they are hypocritical when it comes to centrist aholes who have forgotten many minorities after elections, enriched themselves, and fight like lil bitches at the fall of democracy. Some of y’all need to grow up and stop truly being haters
