The Russians are barbarians and should be treated as such, not as people to negotiate new business deals with to benefit corrupt oligarchs in the US.

If I'm not mistaken,Pill taxes were illegal many many years ago. Why are Democrats starting up? Poll (survey) taxes again? I am not going to pay to give you my opinion if you want it, you can have the opinion, but I'm not going to pay a tax to submit it.

What makes me crazy is every time he uses the nuclear excuse for his war, reporters never ask: If he cares so much about nuclear weapons, WHY did he tear up the Obama-Kerry agreement that was working well with Iran? Seems worth getting his answer on record, ASSUMING he even understands the point. 🤦🏼‍♀️

@lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social you say his using the word, "sir" is the prelude to a lie-OK. I've another perspective. Somewhere deep, he knows how little he is respected here & everywhere & yearns to hear someone address him w/respect, as "Sir." Since they don't, he must humiliate himself & say it.

I don't disagree with you, but it would be good if they at least started though. It's going to take a very long time if ever, but if they would join the Democrats this time, maybe there would be a chance to get him out even if it doesn't redeem the people who have supported him in every way shame.

He is essentially calling down strikes and naming nuclear targets on his own country-A Country he is supposedly responsible for defending. What country is he commander-in-chief of? When does the next impeachment start for a traitor? Hey, GOP🫣 he is not joking. Do it right this time. Redeem yourself.

He clearly doesn't care that people who voted for him live in those cities that's how much he cares about people. The truth is, he doesn't care at all. When are Republican congressional leaders going to get the courage to call for impeachment? Now is a good time.

Just found one of my photographs of my grandchild that Facebook stole from my collection - without my permission - and used it to advertise AI Muse. It certainly goes to show you that nothing is safe on Facebook and Facebook has no integrity. Be aware and be advised.

We can be sure it will only get worse until the election. With Trump's government's firing of our government workers who kept a watch on counter terrorism and fake issues. It is left to our press to keep us aware of what's going on. The important bottom line is ⤵️

Of course Trump didn't want the US press around for his meeting with President Xi. Xi was probably carrying information from Putin and from himself about how they were going to interfere in the November election on behalf of Trump once again. The deep fakes coming out are only the start.

It truly seems like Trump is no longer supporting Ukraine in even a basic way. The end of Trump's term cannot possibly come soon enough for the good of democracy around the world, and certainly, for ours. What a shameful period In our history he has been and continues to be.
