The Taliban WILL kill these people when they go back. Don't be so distracted by tariffs that we ignore the rest.

The federal government keeps labeling everyone they go after as cartel members — and it keeps being proven false. These are the same people we’re supposed to trust when they execute people at sea under that very justification?

When Bush uses the auto pen, the DOJ finds it legal and sound. When Biden does it, it's immediately put under questioning and determined to be void by Congress. Their hypocrisy and retribution know no bounds.

Republicans send Biden autopen report to the Justice Department, urging further investigation

House Republicans have released a long-promised report on former President Joe Biden's use of the autopen and the alleged cover-up of his mental state while in office.

I get that you don't want people to wear a tin foil hat about the 2024 election, but we have no proof, and he's admitted that Elon rigged it with him. It's better to believe someone at their word rather than regret it later. I think this take is pretty bold and equally as dangerous.

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.

Remove him from office.

The disappearance of America’s leadership class at a time like this means that the rest of us have to be leaders. We can no longer wait to be led by those with the power and authority to lead. You must lead, I must lead, all of us must lead. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

I know this is obvious. And I know we all know this.
But if the President can raise taxes because an advert annoyed him, without even consulting Congress, then the US constitution is simply not functioning as intended.

I am looking forward to America's Nuremberg trials when sanity and democracy are restored. There simply can't be amnesty for the shit that is happening now.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Here is the ad Doug Ford spent $75 million airing a Reagan-themed “friends and allies” ad in the U.S.and it worked. Trump’s furious and just killed trade talks with Canada over this ad. Please keep this ad circulating! Thank you!

Want to see how far right the Republican Party has gone?

Watch George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan answer a question about illegal immigration during a 1980 debate.

They wouldn’t even be allowed in today’s Republican Party.

Hakeem Jeffries was just now on Chris Hayes and refused to endorse Zohran Mamdani. I can't even.

Look around.
Every corner of this country is awake.
People flooding the streets not out of hate, but out of love—for each other, for freedom, for the idea that we still matter.
They want us to be afraid.
To stay home.
To be quiet.
We refuse.
This is what democracy looks like.
