Yay!

It would be fantastic if Pope Leo would mention the Trump Epstein files

Hungary's New PM Just Showed Us What Courage Looks Like. Where's Ours? Hypothetically, if I was elected President, here are the opening salvos of restoration

Hungary just elected a new PM who wasted zero time — he shut down state propaganda, called out the corrupt officials by name, and started the reckoning on day one. It made me want to write down exactly what that should look like here. So I did.

WARREN: I want to understand how slashing healthcare for families so Meta gets a $3b tax cut is a 'really good outcome for the American public'

IRS CEO BISIGNANO: I don't see the two as correlated

W: Those tax cuts were paid for by pushing people off their healthcare. Did you not follow that?

I know right - what is going on

Governor Pritzker and Pope Leo in Oct. 2025.

The Pope lifts his voice as part of a higher calling - one centered on peace and the preservation of human life.

He is correct.

It is right-wing news saying one outlandish thing after another to get stoopid people to agree and educated to debate.
Causing debate and division.

"Left wing news" spends its time countering with overly polite reporting, not to offend right wingers.

I don’t remember Jesus being a convicted felon

🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨

(I'm NOT deleting my post below 👇)

We elected you to Congress to be a check on executive power, not a spectator.

You swore an oath to defend the Constitution, not to protect a man who threatens democracy, threatens war, and threatens the future.

Stop hiding behind voters.

Stop punting responsibility.

DO YOUR JOBS.👇

There is no better way to galvanize this generation than forcing this agenda

Just a point of clarification based on experience, pardons are only for the loyal and those who pay cash

Congratulations to the astronauts and to all involved in the Artemis II mission. Amazing and inspiring to see their historic journey and safe return to Earth.

Truth and logic versus crazy

BUTTIGIEG: The strait was open before they started this

KERNEN: They were close to having 11 nuclear weapons!

BUTTIGIEG: We had other ways of dealing with them

KERNEN: Like what? Obama's way?

BUTTIGIEG: That worked

KERNEN: That didn't work!

BUTTIGIEG: Did they get a nuclear weapon under Obama?

Nixon never went to jail.

His AG did.

The corruption of this administration is overwhelming

Last June, the man credited with introducing President Trump to his wife asked the administration for a favor. Paolo Zampolli, a former modeling agent turned presidential special envoy, had learned that his Brazilian ex-girlfriend was in a Miami jail, arrested on charges of fraud at her workplace. They had been in a custody battle over their teenage son. Now he saw an opportunity. He reached out to a top official at Immigration and Customs Enforcement, explaining that his ex was in the country illegally, according to records obtained by The New York Times and a person familiar with the communications. Could she be put in ICE detention? That could help him get his son back. The official, David Venturella, promptly called the agency’s Miami office to ensure that ICE agents would pick up the woman from the jail before she was released on bail, according to the records and a person with knowledge of the conversation who requested anonymity to discuss it. During the call, Mr. Venturella noted that the case was important to someone close to the White House.

Oh.

Holy hell please let this be the reason Melania ran to the press: the guy who imported her, Einstein visa and all, used ICE to deport the mother of his child.

Zampolli was in Hungary w/JD.

She wouldn’t know the truth if it kicked her in the head

I can’t believe I have to say this, but the correct question is:

Please specify the exact date you will release the Trump-Epstein files as required by law?

You agree that your failure to release the Trump-Epstein files is unlawful and you should be immediately arrested and held in jail?

Top Democrat on House Judiciary formally asks White House physician to conduct cognitive exam of Trump: “Experts have repeatedly warned that the President has been exhibiting signs consistent with dementia and cognitive decline… increasingly incoherent, volatile, profane, deranged, and threatening.”

Fascinating, Zelensky coming out publicly more and more and saying that Trump is working with/for Putin. The Ukrainians seem to have determined that telling the truth is preferable to lying to please Trump.

Incredibly important that this happen. National security isn’t sports betting.

Absolutely remarkable statement from Pope Leo today.
One for the history books

We The People absolutely have standing to sue this corrupt individual and as part of discovery we can demand his complete financial investments and inflows

Tonight in Budapest’s Heroes’ Square, a sea of young Hungarians—who’ve only ever known Orbán’s corrupt, suffocating regime—are packed together, singing, chanting, and daring to dream of freedom again.

Their hope is raw, their courage is real. The heart of Europe is beating in Budapest tonight. 🇭🇺❤️🇪🇺
