War weighed heavily on both Eisenhower and Lincoln. “That cannot be said of everyone in power, and lately it seems like it can be said of hardly anyone in power.”

It’s clear: Trump’s tariff taxes are killing jobs and putting real pain on Main Street. America’s small businesses, consumers, and communities cannot wait. The Trump admin must deliver tariff refunds now.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.

What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.

When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Remember this.

The reason we have “stupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.

That’s what touched me the most too. So sad but sweet as well. They are so good at telling this beautiful love story. ❤️😢

When Charlie Kirk died,Trump lowered flags nationwide for him.

6 US soldiers die and not only will he not lower the flags nationwide for them, he just says “some people will die.”

Thank you for the Shouty!Caps recap. I’ve miss an active Outlander community since I left Twitter. It was nice finding other fans for this last 😢 season.

The music from Faith’s story touched me the most. Like you, I’m not sure where this is going, but I’m looking forward to the telling of it. ❤️😢

James Talarico: "Our economy is broken. Our political system is broken. Even our relationships with each other feel broken. And that's because the most powerful people in the world want it that way. The real fight is not right vs. left. It is top vs. bottom."

I just checked the Starz app and it’s there!!! I am so excited and a little sad at the same time. ❤️

MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”

This man has either lost his mind or he just doesn’t want to be bothered with the mess he has created. Either way, he should be removed from office immediately.

I know Mullin is not too bright, but he has to realize he can’t do the job. He’s just such a sycophant he won’t say no. Unfortunately this puts us all in danger.

WTAF?!? So embarrassing. I hope each of those actors and production companies sues the 💩 out of them.

He ain’t at the Fox weekend news desk anymore. And I bet he wishes he was.

This is so pathetic because that man doesn’t have a religious bone in his body. What an embarrassing bunch of whackadoodles. 🤪

Once again, Trump chose the Republican for a Cabinet position who has made the most appearances on Fox over the last month, which appears to be the primary qualification for a senior position in the administration.

Trump cut off supplies of Sidewinder missiles for Ukraine’s F-16s, which limited their ability to prevent Russian strikes on Ukraine’s cities during the dead of winter when Putin ramped up attacks. And yet, when we need help with interceptor drones for Iran, Ukraine offered them without hesitation.

OMFG!!! You’re right. 😱

The Guardian: Iran has largely halted oil and gas exports through strait of Hormuz. At least four tankers have been struck by drones and maritime traffic has dropped by 80%.

When gas prices soar, remember your money is going towards keeping the Epstein files secret.

Knowing this guy is the one pulling the strings behind a fading and incoherent president is terrifying.

It’s not just that the Administration isn’t answering questions about Iran.

They’re lying.

Unchecked cruelty from this “Christian” bunch. I hope they have a rude awakening when they reach the pearly gates.

Didn’t Fani Willis have to answer a boatload of questions about her personal relationship? Seems like this administration created the insane universe we are in.

Judge orders White House to allow AP access to news events U.S. Judge Trevor N. McFadden rules the White House cannot deny the Associated Press access to news events because the wire service continues to use "Gulf of Mexico" rather than "Gulf of America".

Flashback: The AP was banned from accessing Oval Office by President Trump in 2025, after it refused to rename the Gulf of Mexico as "Gulf of America":
