Promising to reward a Country for keeping a corrupt Leader? Trump did that here already!

“What’s the benefit for 🇺🇸 in sending $20 BILLION to Argentina?”🤔

Trump says he just really likes their philosophy and will only send the $20 Billion if his pal Milei wins.

Imagine not being able to see this blatant corruption for what it is. (While our farmers struggle)

ICE targeted an apartment building near my home. Masked agents in unmarked cars. I've said this before. Democratic Governors & Mayors need to order their local police depts to arrest any & all unidentified & masked alleged ICE agents.

This anonymous denial of due process is deadly.

With Larry Ellison in control of TikTok, we now have right-wingers or looney far-right wingers in control of most of the major social media platforms.

Right-Wing Moguls Dominate Social Media. One Legal Fix Can Help Stem the Tide.

Revising Section 230 of the 1996 Communications Decency Act would make outlets more accountable for the content they platform.

MISSOURI: VOTE NO ON DATA CENTERS.

THEY ROB ENTIRE COMMUNITIES OF ELECTRICITY AND WATER.

SHOW UP TO CITY ZONING MEETINGS THAT APPROVE THEM.

TELL YOUR CITY: NO DATA CENTERS.

Ameren cut off nearly 15,000 Missourians from electricity in September as data centers threaten to raise prices more

Data centers are projected to raise electricity prices even more, as current prices are already unaffordable for thousands of families across the state.

Trump hates this picture on the cover of TIME magazine. Trump claims they disappeared his hair. Actually, the picture's angle was shot from below. The sun shines through his hair, and destroys Trump's hair "illusion". Thus, the picture tells the truth - baldness covered over wth thin, cotton candy hair!
