Trump Is Said to Be in Talks to Send Afghans Who Aided U.S. Forces to Congo

Completely ruthless and craven. “After halting a U.S. resettlement program for Afghans who helped the American war effort, President Trump is in talks to send as many as 1,100 of them to the Democratic Republic of Congo.”

I can't believe I helped Trump. I can't believe I fell for it...I see the light...

...is the new line by the fascist influencers. They need an off-ramp now because he's dying and awful. The fascist rebrand begins, and corporate media will eat it up.

Trump's ceasefire extension means nothing. The losing side cannot dictate terms. The continuation of the siege is no different from bombardment and must be met with a military response. Moreover, Trump's ceasefire extension is certainly a ploy to buy time for a surprise attack. The time for Iran to take the initiative has come.

In Iran’s first response to the ceasefire extension, an adviser to the speaker of parliament torched Trump, saying, ‘The losing side cannot dictate terms.’

Kevin Warsh was warned about the risks of predatory mortgages. He said subprime assets were getting a "bad name," and said he had no regrets about his time on the Fed Board during the 2008 crisis.

Why should Americans trust him to be Chairman of the Federal Reserve now?

IDK why, but I re-read the first article I wrote about Trump's rhetoric (dec, 2015): "Donald Trump appeals to voters’ fears by depicting a nation in crisis, while positioning himself as the nation’s hero – the only one who can conquer our foes, secure our borders and “Make America Great Again.”

Trump’s met his match in Iran, they know it, he knows it. Stable genius has backed himself into a corner. He has few cards, he can’t bomb them further & send oil to $200 bucks a barrel any easier than he can force them to open Strait. He’s f*cked & the whole world see’s his hand.

Mass killings database: Every event since 2006 The horror of mass shootings in American schools and churches capture the nation's attention. But these are only part of the larger violence of mass killings.

“Guns surpassed car accidents as the leading cause of death for children and teenagers in 2020, and the number of gun deaths among this demographic has increased since then.”

Your tax dollars at work. Congress has a bill to get rid of national injunctions after the Supreme Court already got rid of national injunctions. 🤨

Trump: "We totally control the strait, just so you understand. For all the fake news out there."

Infowars’ endless afterlife The Onion may finally boot Alex Jones from his studio, but years of damage have already been done.

“History will see the emergency docket and MQD as twin drivers of the Roberts court’s conservative activism. That’s a surprising legacy for a chief justice who came to the court as an advocate of judicial restraint.” www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Chairman Comer and Republican leaders are now canceling hearings and are running scared from Oversight Democrats. But we won’t stop fighting until we get justice for the Epstein survivors and stop the Trump corruption.

Wow. Today the ECJ found Hungary violated EU law with its anti-gay statute, but the most revolutionary part of the decision is that the Court found that Art. 2 TEU, laying out European values, could be used as an independent legal ground in cases before the Court. curia.europa.eu/site/upload/...

Dismantling Voice of America was one of the most devastating things I’ve witnessed. VOA wasn’t propaganda, it was proof that free press could criticize its own leaders and still survive. And now we’re throwing away one of our greatest tools of freedom.

FCC chair Brendan Carr, who has threatened to revoke the licenses of broadcast outlets whose Iran war coverage displeases him, plans to attend the White House Correspondents’ Dinner as a guest this Saturday.
The suck-up media will never learn: When you invite fascists to dinner, they devour you.

That’s Colbert’s turf 😅

Figure showing number of competitive grants mentioning women from 2015-2025. The number was rising until recently, with a precipitous drop in the last year.

At the end of 2024, the National Academies put out a report concluding the NIH has woefully underfunded women’s health research, and they suggested $15 B should be invested over the next 5 years.

Here’s what’s happened instead. Hard to study women’s health if you can’t say “women.”
