I was not surprised to read this. I trust Netanyahu about as far as I can throw him. He is a war criminal.

NEW: I took a long look at the Proud Boys and found some of their most extreme chapters are sharing ICE recruiting materials on encrypted apps and even suggesting members have joined up. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/in-the-...

Antifa
Counter Terrorism
Task Force
Trump already gave so many of us jobs with ICE. We may have to start recruiting soon to fill all these spots.

No way. I will never watch AI-generated films. I can't even watch South Park or The Simpsons because I do not like the animation style.

Rape is all about power & control. IMO, MAGA men feel they are powerless & therefore must exert control over uppity women by raping them. Get over yourselves, you assholes. You are not men. You are delusional twits.

From the internet: The Supreme Court is re-hearing the case to consider a broad question: whether Section 2 remedies that require "race-conscious" redistricting conflict with the Equal Protection Clause. To me, this could mean minority voters may have less access to voting in any election.

I hope SCOTUS decides not to revoke the Voting Rights Act. This is a fundamental right of this nation. We CAN NOT lose it. If this happens, we are one more giant step closer to full-on fascism.

The Trump Administration should honor Charlie Kirk and his birthday by fulfilling his wish of releasing the Epstein Files.

Pass it on.

Meiselas: MAGA Mike Johnson was being questioned about the shutdown during this disastrous press conference he held. He literally says, “I don’t have any strategy." Then Rep. Lisa McClain jumps in, apparently realizing Mike Johnson had just blown it and she completely unravels on camera.

First the Trump regime fired 1,300 CDC workers. Then it rehired about half of them.

Those who remain fired include key officials working on injury and violence prevention and crucial health statistics.

This hurts federal workers and puts us all at risk in a public health emergency.

At one time in my life I wouldn't donate to fundraisers if I only had a little to give. It seemed too small to make a difference so why bother? Now I know that goals get achieved when LOTS of people give those small amounts! Let's smash this hay drive one $8 bale at a time. 🍂
