Wild to watch corporate democrats rightly condemn Trump’s extrajudicial murders of innocent people in Carribean—while simultaneously pretending Trump isnt letting Netanyahu do the exact same thing to Palestinians in Gaza & the West Bank.
Their cowardly silence on Gaza enables this in the Caribbean

The president is such a bumbling idiot he thinks tweeting out the word "hereby" a couple times on his white supremacist social media site is the same thing as making an actual law.
The only story here is the one about a mentally diminished, increasingly erratic president who thinks he's a king.

It should go without saying, but the president has no authority to do this, and anyone reporting the story needs to say as such.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?
It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.
It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

According to a new Economist/YouGov poll, Trump's approval rating is underwater in the majority of states — including 20 states he won last year.
He's flailing on the economy and his party's odds for 2026 are crumbling.
