The Speaker of the House thinks a naked bike ride is terrorism.

This is a sentence I never thought I’d write when I got a degree in professional writing for journalism.

Justice JACKSON standing up for voting rights. 🔥

Louisiana: Plaintiffs said 'we want another majority-black district.'

Jackson: No. They said 'we aren't receiving equal electoral opportunity because our votes are being diluted.'

Louisiana: Same thing.

Jackson: No, it’s not.

US taxpayers are facing skyrocketing healthcare costs, and US soybean farmers are being undercut by Argentinian ones,

but billionaire investors are happy

and so is Milei:
“There will be an avalanche of dollars… We’ll have dollars pouring out of our ears.”

UPDATE: Trump admits Argentina bailout will not benefit the U.S.

A remarkable statement about the $20 billion plan that will greatly benefit a well-connected hedge fund manager.

JFC! What will it take?

I can’t believe Trump just promised Argentina another $20 billion, bringing the total to $40 billion.

American farmers better be paying attention and rethink their unwavering support for the man.

MAGA/REPUBLICANS have "strategy meetings" so they're ALL on the same page - spewing the same Big Lies. Their big lie this week is that ALL of the No Kings protesters are a) Paid by Soros/Jews b) All "radical extreme Antifa" c) That we "HATE AMERICA" they claim if we hate Trump and Fascism. FUCK GOP!
