The American people deserve to feel protected by their president. Not attacked by him.

And that is exactly Putin and the Heritage Foundation’s intent.
“…Even if they are able to clean up his mess … elect a supremely sane president next, America will NEVER again be a trusted partner. Because there are enough Americans who would vote for him … (again).

I couldn't even say anything. She was right. The damage this has done is endless…”

Duckworth: "It is a war crime. It's illegal. No matter how you put it, it's all illegal. I've been shot down behind enemy lines. Under the laws of war, you are supposed to help render aid to that individual ... you're not allowed to go back in and kill them."

If the Sep. 2 boat really had "narco-terrorists" on board, questioning the survivors would have been a way to learn about how the organization worked, where more drugs were stashed, etc. But this isn't a counter-terrorism campaign. It's a shooting gallery with helpless targets.

Message to Republicans... if you get rid of Trump now, you can still have a Vance presidency. If you don't... and the mid-terms go our way... there will be no reason to stop at impeaching only Trump. We could make Hakeem Jeffries President.

At no point during the 5-year span Monty Python's Flying Circus aired on the BBC, October 1969 to December 1974, could the greatest comedic minds of their time come up with a skit more grotesquely absurd than Trump placing a fake peace-prize medal over his own head.

“Sitting on top of a capsized boat.” Sounds pretty incapacitated to me.
We already knew Tom Cotton was worthless, lying scum.

They could let us see the unedited video and judge for ourselves, but then they wouldn't be able to go on the Sunday shows and continue to lie about murdering people, could they?
WELKER: Lawmakers say the 2 men appeared to raise their arms potentially to surrender. Why did Admiral Bradley interpret these actions as anything other than them trying to survive?

TOM COTTON: They were sitting or standing on top of a capsized boat. They weren't floating helplessly in the water

There are no drugs, coming from Venezuela on little boats. China, on the other hand, was shipping fentanyl here using the US Mail. They also moved it in through Mexico. Venezuela is getting undeserved blame, as an excuse for Cheeto to attack Venezuela.

Trump’s DOJ is building a voter purge machine—powered by your private data
The federal agency ordinarily would prevent attacks on voting rights. Now it’s carrying them out.

Why is Larry Ellison quietly buying these media companies, and AI, and data centers and so much more? To control what propaganda he can send your way…to control government data…to surveil the American people. This list isn’t complete, but ought to give pause. Monopolies don’t exist in the era of 🍊💩
