We really shouldn’t forget this when Trump capitulates to Putin on Ukraine.

Also worth remembering that at one time EVERY bank in the US had barred Trump from loans. Lucky Deutsche Bank bailed him out.

The big guns don't need your money, but for small traders it can be what keeps them going into 2026, so support your community instead.

It has taken this country almost 250 years to be $37 trillion in debt! One man alone responsible for 1/3 of 250 years worth of debt! At the same time making the majority of the country poorer, and him and his family raking in billions!

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Friends, can I ask a favour.

Our latest Honest Government out is a serious warning to Canada from Australia, which acts as a cautionary tail about the harms of the gas (LNG) export industry... Hence the cameo (spoiler alert) from our own aussie climate criminals, Woodside Energy

That's why we're calling on the Australian Government to phase out fossil fuels.
