When a sitting U.S. president makes insulting remarks about Canada and threatens its sovereignty, I’ll criticize the United States and its administration if I bloody well please. What happens in that country has a big impact in the world, so no, I won’t “stay in my own lane.”

I can't help anyone who is so indoctrinated that they really think the world is shitty because it has to be that way. It so clearly doesn't. We're not even talking about political activity in the world. We're talking a basic foundation to be able to say, this shit's not right, it could be better.

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

Iran should release the remaining Epstein files and videos - unredacted. They have them. This toxicity will end.

😂😂 and a good time was had!

Mayor Mamdani and a group of children hold hands while running through red tape in a hallway.

For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust.

We've run through that red tape. This fall, all 7 will open their doors, bringing an additional 240 free 3-K seats & real relief to working families.

Literally the BTS at the GOP headquarters 😭

i thought they only posted satire

The damage caused is global, and there’s loss of lives. Funny how he also claims to be Christian - pushing a convicted criminal, conman and pedophile to the Fox News brainwashed masses. #BoiBye!

All of them looking for an offramp.

Sorry pal, dead end

Spent Saturday with President Obama and New York's Cutest — turns out my first name is Mayor and I need to be doing more squats. 

Here’s to building a City where families can thrive and every classroom is full of this much joy.

In a nutshell. 😊

Like I said before, you just love to argue when you’re faced with facts. I used AI to summarize what I already knew as a followed his campaign closely. I also know what Hochul said, did and why. If your “logic” and thought process makes you feel better, that’s okay too. Your argument is exhausting!😖

Yes, Governor Kathy Hochul (in office since August 2021) has vetoed multiple bills that progressive lawmakers and advocates strongly supported. Here are some notable examples: Key Progressive Bills Vetoed: • Non-Compete Ban (2023) — A broad bill that would have banned most non-compete agreements for all workers. Hochul vetoed it, preferring a narrower version limited to lower-wage workers. nytimes.com • Grieving Families Act (multiple times, including 2023-2025) - This would have updated New York's outdated wrongful death law to allow families to recover damages for emotional grief and suffering (not just economic loss). Hochul vetoed it at least four times, citing concerns about rising insurance and healthcare costs.

• Grieving Families Act (multiple times, including 2023-2025) - This would have updated New York's outdated wrongful death law to allow families to recover damages for emotional grief and suffering (not just economic loss). Hochul vetoed it at least four times, citing concerns about rising insurance and healthcare costs. yourbuffalolawyer.com • Utility Consumer Advocate / Transparency Bills — Repeated vetoes of legislation aimed at strengthening oversight of utility companies and protecting consumers from high energy bills. syracuse.com

• Other examples include certain child care expansion efforts, FOIL (public records) improvements, and corporate transparency measures that progressives pushed for stronger versions of. ithacavoice.org. Hochul has signed many progressive priorities (e.g., some housing protections, gun safety measures, and reproductive rights bills), but she has frequently clashed with the left-leaning legislature on bills she views as fiscally risky, overly broad, or harmful to business interests. She has used her veto pen more aggressively than recent predecessors in several years.

Hochul's endorsement of Zohran Mamdani for NYC mayor in September 2025 came after months of hesitation and was widely viewed as a calculated political move tied to her own 2026 reelection fight. Why it looks that way: • Hochul is a moderate/centrist Democrat who had clashed with progressives and the DSA (Mamdani's base) for years — vetoing bills they cared about, dragging her feet on taxing the rich, etc. • By late 2025, she was facing potential left-wing primary challenges and a tough general election environment. Endorsing the rising democratic socialist star helped her neutralize progressive anger, lock in left-leaning voters, and make herself look more "pragmatic" and unifying.

No offence but I’m not sure why you keep arguing when you can go look up the proof yourself. But here you go and hope it helps clarify things for you. I also included the reason why she finally got around to endorsing Mamdani.

US gives Israel 3.8B in military aid…Israel uses it to buy American weapons. AIPAC lobby’s funded by donors - it funds political campaigns in order to influence foreign/domestic policy & to keep that aid going. It’s legalized bribery to shape U.S. policy. 😏

Child: I know your name. Mamdani.

Obama: What’s his first name?

Child: Mayor.

Children should always be our priority. Thank you for your examples, President Obama and Mayor Mamdani

This is so perfect and timely! I love it! It’s time to bring hope back into this party. Hope for the people, not corporations and foreign lobby groups!

Unconfirmed IRGC Navy transmission:

“The Strait of Hormuz is still closed. We will open it by the order of our leader Imam Khamenei, not by the tweets of some idiot.”

Gee…wonder who they’re talking about…?

I think most people would prefer this. #Science

Netanyahu: US easily manipulated Israeli PM seen discussing ways to undermine Oslo Accords in 2001 videotape.

Isn’t it odd how the West seems to ignore this info?

The US and NATO had the opportunity to prevent him from carrying out his evil plans, which he openly admitted to. Questioning his government now is “illegal” in some countries. 🙄

Over 40,000 people are currently incarcerated for Cannabis. Not a SINGLE Epstein files co-conspirator has been arrested.

Here's a perfect midterm message for Dems to run on in the midterms.

They used the institutions & freedom & stability of the US to grow their business & their fortunes but they don't want to support America by paying taxes to the US but pay China billions!
