Just think how glorious it will be when we remove Donald Trump's name from everything.

Today, more than 80% of the Democratic caucus stood with the American people and voted to block U.S. military aid to Netanyahu and his horrific, illegal wars.

Daily reminder:Release the Epstein Files👇🏻

To be fair this is a photograph of my actual doctor.

its good to see this happening somewhere and it needs to be happening everywhere

This week, I will be forcing a vote on legislation to block the sale of nearly half a billion dollars worth of bombs and bulldozers to the Israeli military.

The extremist Netanyahu government that has committed genocide in Gaza does not need more military support from American taxpayers.

JD Vance is on a historic roll:

He campaigns for AfD in Germany - they lose.

Invited the Pope to come to US for Trump’s big event - Pope refuses.

Leads peace negotiations with Iran - fails miserably.

Campaigns in Hungary for Orbán - who gets smoked.

First Canada
Then Australia
Then South Korea

Now Hungary

Next — America

Fascism is failing - democracy is winning

Is the fact that the Iran war wasn’t congressionally authorized something we no longer talk about? Seems like the reporting/discussion now just assumes that Trump can just do whatever he wants wrt the use of force

Tens of thousands chant “Russians, go home!” at tonight’s anti-Orbán concert in Budapest’s Heroes’ Square ahead of Sunday’s Hungarian election.

Melania choosing now to speak publicly about Jeffrey Epstein is interesting…

Teen models, powerful men and private dinners: when Trump hosted Look of the Year In the early 90s, Donald Trump judged contestants at the world’s biggest modelling competition - since hit by allegations of abuse. This is how the people who were there remember it

This Guardian story from 2020 asked:
"Why would a man in his 40s, whose main business was real-estate development, want to host a beauty contest for teenage girls?"
I think we know the answer.
Release all the Epstein files. End the Trump cover-up.

Bravo to Pope Leo, for denouncing Trump’s threat to destroy Iran’s ‘whole civilization.’ We need those with moral authority to speak out against our president’s abuses of power.

At 11:30a: House Democrats will attempt to pass a war powers authorization by unanimous consent

It’s expected that Republicans will block the effort

That could jam up Republicans with constituents who oppose the war

Jay in Kyiv: Trump announces that the US will continue trading with any nation supplying weapons to Iran but will force Americans buying items from those countries to pay a 50% tax on the goods. Punishing his own subjects for his own stupidity is a trick he learned from Putin.

7. There hasn't been regime change.
8. U.S. casualties are over 800.
9. There's no secret new 10-point Iranian peace plan, just the old one.
10. Regular Iranian missile strikes continue.
11. U.S. and Israeli interceptors arsenals are in a dire state.
12. This war has wasted tens of billions.

1 Iran has two navies; only one—the far smaller one—was destroyed.
2. Half of Iran's launchers are intact.
3. Iran held back its small air force—it wasn't destroyed.
4 There's been no impact on Iran's nuclear capabilities.
5. Only 0.3% of Iran's army was neutralized.
6 The Strait is closed.

NEW: Since Donald Trump waged war on Iran, Americans have paid over $8 BILLION MORE for gas.

🔥 @rokhanna.bsky.social to Democratic leadership: “Get out. Let a new generation lead. You’ve been ineffective. The base doesn’t like you. The base wants fighters.”

She’s right

This is a clarifying and revealing moment for many “leaders” in Washington.

Remember who spoke out and who laid down.
