Trump has no plan for settling the conflict with Iran, no plan for stopping Israel from violating the sovereignty of its regional neighbors, no interest in acting in the best interests of Americans, and no competency to hold the office of President of the United States. www.cnbc.com/2026/06/01/t...

The President truthed today that “Hakeem Jeffries, a Low IQ individual” should be impeached. The President is presumably a High IQ individual as evidenced by his ability to distinguish a bear from a giraffe, a lion, and a shark. Yet he doesn’t realize that members of Congress cannot be impeached?

A friend of mine who is Jewish and a bit older than I am explained it to me this way: In the 1960s and 1970s, Israel was a small country surrounded on all sides by enemies. Now? It has a massive military and is an occupying force in the West Bank and turned Gaza into an open-air prison.

Let's me frame the results in Georgia properly for you. • Trump (2024): won by 40–45 points • Shawn Harris (tonight): lost by~8–10 points That’s a 30–35 point improvement compared to Trump’s margin in the same district!!! THAT IS A HUGE WIN FOR DEMS & A HUGE LOSS FOR TRUMP That's your headline.

While the President sends more American troops to the Middle East, the price of everything - groceries, gas, mortgages - keeps rising. Let’s be clear: we are worse off today, and no safer, than before this unnecessary war began.

When viewing world news (that they want to you see), keep in mind... The ones suffering are the working classes and the comunities like yours and mine. The millionaires and political classes are the ones invoking pain and we are the ones suffering. Don't let them or yourself forget this.

Chris Christie: "To say what the president said about Bob Mueller just shows you how completely self-consumed he is. It comes from his own sense that the only thing that matters in the world is him. That's what a child does."

The $191 billion ICE slush fund came at expense of Medicaid, food assistance, and support for veterans. Republicans chose warrantless searches and brutality over compassion for American families. Remember in November! #FundDHSFreezeICE

Just a reminder that in January of this year, Trump and Hegseth decommissioned EVERY US mine sweeper. Yep. Every. Last. One. Evidently they could never imagine a scenario in which the US needed minesweepers. In Trump's America, we are governed by idiots.

I live smack dab in the middle of (R) central. Do NOT mistake the bullshit “support” for ICE you see on social media that appears to be coming from R's, as something legit. I don’t hear many Republicans in real life saying “I support ICE and what they are doing.” Most, that I encounter…are repulsed.

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."
