Trump: "Jon Ossoff has spent more money on makeup -- and by the way I wear very little and I do it myself. Yaaaaaaaaaaahhhh. Because if you don't put a little on, you look a little bit like a dead person. I don't want to look that way. But he goes full bore."

Trump’s Genocidal Rhetoric On Iran Deserves Legal Consequences - PopularResistance.Org
US President Donald Trump’s threats to destroy Iran have become so frequent that they often don’t make headlines. One recent exception, though, was during his 38-minute speech at the 81st session of the UN General Assembly on September 22, in which Trump mentioned Iran 17 times. “Will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild and create a far greater country than it ever was before? Maybe one of the greatest in the Middle East, or even the world,” he blustered. “Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again?”

This year alone, New Yorkers have reported more than 188,000 incidents of domestic violence. That's 780 incidents every day. Countless others go unreported. If you or someone you love needs help, call 1-800-621-HOPE or visit on.nyc.gov/hotlinechat.
New Yorker sitting around tables raise their hands. The tablecloths are purple and balloons behind them are also purple. Mayor Mamdani speaks at a podium labeled “NYC Go Purple Day.”

Black text on a white background
“More than 100 elected officials have joined me in calling on parking lot and garage owners across New York City: Don’t give ICE a place to operate. Don’t rent to them. Tell them they’re not welcome.

Last week, ICE agents shot Oscar Belgal in the neck in Marble Hill while his 5-year-old son sat in the car. They had been staging nearby in a private parking lot.

Our city laws keep ICE off public property. Now, we’re calling on private property owners to do the same. One garage on Morton Street already removed ICE vehicles after neighbors spoke out. Every owner has that power.”

Yesterday I heard a human call another human ‘ugly’. Well, some people are not nice -not nice at all - but I never met a human who was ugly. Or a dog or a cat or a horse or a bird. Even frogs are kind of cute. Hey Humans: Be nice to each other About your faces.

Trump wants to make sure it’s as easy as possible for his friend Putin to bomb apartment buildings and kill children. He’s not just the worst president in history, he’s the most evil person to ever serve at the highest level of government. Vote out his weak Republican enablers.

President Obama held a speaking event in Glasgow, Scotland last night, where a sold-out crowd of 12,000 packed the arena. At this point, the only way Trump could attract a crowd this size would be for his funeral, or if he paid the attendees (alot).
