President Trump is meeting with the President of Argentina instead of meeting with Congressional leaders to end the shutdown and prevent health care premiums from skyrocketing.

$20 billion for Argentina, but no $ for Americans' health care?

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.

NEW: Israel informed the UN it will permit only 300 aid trucks into Gaza daily, not the 600 mandated by the ceasefire it just signed.

Kudos to dozens of airports across the country that are refusing to play state propaganda.

This administration keeps torching the Hatch Act—propaganda videos in airports, partisan emails on federal servers, even mass firings. It’s corruption with a flag pin. See something? Say something. Expose it through the whistleblower tip line.

one response to this (correct) observation is to say “well, the cops will attack you no matter how you dress and behave.” that’s right. images of cops and ICE beating grandmas and kids in inflatable frog costumes is a win for the opposition.

one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump

As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.

If you allow the gov’t to break the law because of an emergency, they will always create an emergency to break the law.

Harry Sisson & others reported this. Some big money trader made $192 Million from Trump's TACO trade.

The trader opened a new account 30 Minutes before Felon Trump announced a 100% China Tariff.
In 2 hours, this Trader bagged $192 Million in his pocket.
Now Trump backed off his China threat.
