You know what's really embarrassing about this conflict? Iran has a 90 percent literacy rate while 50 per cent of the US reads at the 6th grade level or below. Iran sent Phds to the ceasefire talks. The US sent realtors.
How did Magyar win? A long running grassroots campaign in rural and small town Hungary; a refusal to be distracted by government propaganda; a focus on economic issues and corruption; a central promise to bring back democracy and the rule of law
Something like this will have to happen in this country once Trumpism is defeated. In the absence of accountability, the world will rightly assume that it will happen again.
Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.
You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.
May Victor Orbán simply be the first in a string of countries engaging in overdue housecleaning by kicking their authoritarian leaders to the curb.
We have a president who took the nation into a war for reasons he cannot fully articulate, without a strategy for how to respond if Iran did the expected and closed the Strait of Hormuz, and without an exit strategy if Iran doesn’t surrender.
Reminder that Congress can step up and stop this.

Christianity is the biggest, most profitable scam in America.
🇺🇦 Zelensky to AP:
Russia has provided Iran with satellite intelligence on Israel's energy system - about 50-53 sites in total. We are talking about civilian infrastructure.
This is reminiscent of the life of Ukrainians during the shelling by Russia, when they hit electricity grid or water supply.
Why does Trump want to increase the defense budget by almost 50%? Because he sees it as a payoff to the guys who will help him establish his dictatorship of convenience.
New Attorney General Todd Blanche has officially closed the Epstein files. Peculiar timing for Pam Bondi's departure. Check out this and more from my Weekend Video on Substack. Link in reply.
All of our wars seem to be about supporting Russian oil exports. See my essay “Oligarchic Corridor” for thoughts
The Republican Party owns this war

They’re not hiding it. The goal is to flip the midterms before a single vote is cast.
Epstein files. Now.
America's new "Golden Age"...
People are dying in ICE custody.
14 people died this year. 30+ died last year.
ICE needs serious reforms.
"All this time Putin had, and still has, a mole in all European and NATO official meetings. If the integrity of these meetings is to be maintained, it would be appropriate to ban Hungary from all of them. Every generation has a Kim Philby”

Don’t let them gaslight you. This is from the NYPD’s official account
Still can’t get over the House GOP rejecting a 100-0 bill from the Senate to fund TSA, Coast Guard, and FEMA and… just going on vacation.
Complete abdication of duty.
Global landmarks including the Eiffel Tower in Paris and Sagrada Família Basilica in Barcelona switched off their lights for an hour on Saturday night to mark Earth Hour.
The global event, organised by the World Wide Fund for Nature, takes place every year to raise environmental awareness.
