Trump: "How about this? Today they gave out the Nobel Peace Prize to a person, I've never heard of the person. It's a mystery person. I settled eight wars ... I'm about to settle or win two more. Iran and Russel-Ukraine. Russia-Ukraine."

This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

Anyone who refers to Donald Trump as “President” and not by the highly accepted newer and more accurate term “Convicted Felon and Adjudicated Rapist” is THE ENEMY.

What is going on with our president? Calling people "THE ENEMY" for exercising their First Amendment rights is deeply disturbing. That's what autocratic leaders do, not American leaders. Doing so for such a trivial, vain matter is just nutty.

25 years ago today, the U.S. launched its war in Afghanistan. Weeks earlier, Barbara Lee was the only member of Congress to vote against the 2001 Authorization of Military Force, warning it would be a blank check for forever wars. History has proven her lonely and courageous vote right.

Anyone demanding compliance when all they're doing is breaking the law and lying out of their constantly puckered mouth-anus should NEVER be listened to. To Hell with Traitor Trump. He must be removed from power ASAP.

At today's NYC Council AI hearing, Speaker Menin cites a report that suggests 600K New Yorkers could be displaced from their jobs by 2031. She asks the AI execs for their estimates on how many New York jobs will be eliminated in the coming years. In a consistent theme of the day: nobody knows.
