😡Israel is saying that because Hamas can't find the dead bodies of hostages buried beneath the rubble THEY CAUSED, they will not honor ceasefire deal.

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

It's Sunday my "antifa" adjacent friends!!

That means we've survived another week of physically and mentally weak people who think they're "alpha" everything. They are not🤣

Today's giggle is from the fabulous duo of Tina Fey & Amy Pohler playing Noem & Bondi.

Stay safe y'all!
