French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy to try to intimidate her during Marine Le Pen's trial for embezzlement — and details how he has used similar fascistic tactics to intimidate other judges around the world who rule against his alt-right friends.

If you are:
-a leftist
-who does not like the DNC
-and lives in a red district
-that is rural or suburban

I encourage you to check out your local Dems and maybe get involved. Red districts are often ignored by national Dems; you may have more influence to push left locally than you think.

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

Gov. Sherrill: We refuse to be silent. As doors are shut on our neighbors, children don't have enough to eat, people work too hard still can't get ahead, children who are afraid their parents will disappear in an ICE raid, as we see Washington trying to roll back the tide of progress. Not here.

Scott, people are trying to buy 1 house — to live in.

This is pure, unabashed bigotry.

If a politician said this about any other faith, they would rightfully be run out of their party.

But this kind of despicable anti-Muslim rhetoric is so normalized that a sitting Senator uses it without consequence.

A stain on our Congress.

Well, one of those was a law passed by Congress to help people, and the other is an unconstitutional power grab, but yes, otherwise the same.

What I am urging everyone here to do is sit back, take a deep breath, and let things play out. The worst thing countries can do is escalate against the United States.

Lavrov:

We assessed that under Trump, the US became the only country that not only expressed understanding of the need to take Russia's interests into account, but also proposed solutions that took into account the root causes of the current crisis…

Just as everyone predicted with the exception of Donald Trump, Scott Bessent, Howard Lutnick, and Kevin Hassett. The last 3 knew they’ve been lying, not sure with Orange Caligula because he’s a moron and a liar so in his case it could be either one or both.

The problem was not labeling Trump correctly as a fascist. The problem was not treating him as one. They still aren’t! That creates a gap where you’re warning people that things are on fire, but instead of evacuating or getting water, you’re casually sitting down with a cup of tea.
You want to know why Chuck Schumer is talking about affordability & not Trump being a fascist? It's because we already tried talking about him being a fascist *& everyone ignored us*.
A big part of why we are at where we are is that much of the world, the press, foreign leaders, a big hunk of US voters, simply refused to believe it when Democrats said Trump would be as bad as he is.

At about the 35-second mark the officer says "IF YOU FUCKING MOVE I'LL FUCKING TASE YOU," followed immediately by "GET OUT OF THE FUCKING CAR RIGHT NOW."

Which contradictory order are you supposed to follow, knowing that either could get you tased? Or worse?

The debate "rehabilitating" Hanania in particular is profoundly stupid because he has changed none of his views, suffered no consequences, contributes no benefits or assets, theoretical or practical, to the anti-Trump coalition, and is very open about being having total contempt for his allies.
