The Republican Party is so morally & ethically bankrupt that the best they could do to replace Rep Gonzalez is to replace him with someone who calls his gun a “gh*tto blaster” and goose-steps to Nazi marching songs.

He lies through his teeth. He changes his mind continuously. He acts on whim. He’s driven by vengeance, hate and money. He wants more power for no good but only to feed his insatiable broken ego that never gets enough. Woe to everything you may love. Giving up or giving in are not options.

Virginia moves to forbid schools from teaching that Jan. 6 was peaceful In what appears to be a first in the country, legislation headed to the desk of Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) would prohibit public schools from teaching that the Jan. 6 riots at the U.S. Capit...

Virginia lawmakers have passed a first-of-its-kind bill that prohibits schools from teaching that the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection was a peaceful demonstration or that there was massive fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

"We hosted that Iranian ship. They disarmed for our naval exercise. Then America attacked."

India's ex-FM just exposed the setup.

The UK stays silent when our "allies" pull stunts like this.

Remember how this guy lobbied hard to get a pardon for a war criminal who slaughtered children? Turns out that’s literally his entire philosophy of armed conflict

Unpopular president, unpopular war.

Peter Baker, NYT - Presidents traditionally gain support during moments of crisis and war.... By contrast, Mr. Trump, already historically unpopular according to polls, has so far gained not a bit of support.

THIS
And, when Charlie Kirk died, Trump ordered flags be flown at half staff. He has NOT ordered flags to be flown at half staff to recognize the deaths of our troops.

Seems troubling.

More troubling would be the idea that the Administration might have bombed Iran without expecting this.

I think it's hard for normal people to grasp that the entire concept of truth is irrelevant to him. He literally doesn't care whether something is true or not. The only thing that matters is whether it sounds good or bad for Trump.

This doesn’t explain the first half (the explanation for it is obvious) but the second half is that Trump is clearly lying

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a UNIVERSAL vaccine known as GLA-3M-052-LS+OVA, that protects against a wide range of respiratory viruses, bacteria AND even allergens. The vaccine is delivered intranasally AND provides broad protection in the lungs for several MONTHS.

Sadistic. Fuck Russia.

Big if true.🤷‍♀️

agree.
Admitting and talking about what’s happening - in Iran, in US science, in Minneapolis, in public health, in DC - is simply essential now.

Getting close to that.

Capitol Hunters confirms Platner lied about why he could not get back into the Marines in 2009. It was because of his Nazi/antisemitic tattoo. He blamed Marine policy barring sleeve tattoos, but Marine policy grandfathered sleeve tattoos. It barred symbols of hate, which is what the Totenkopf is.

And what is the second branch of the government gonna do about it?

Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid Footage obtained by The Handbasket’s lawsuit shows a hostile takeover on March 17, 2025.
