Well, Trump delivered on regime change.

Why is Melania Trump forcing herself on the world when nobody wants anything to do with her?

so um isn't the implication here that hormuz is getting mined as we speak?

Trump fired the former FEMA chief for stating something completely sensible: that the agency shouldn’t be dismantled.

Now they’re trying to get him back to run it.

Same order as the usual: chaos and dysfunction — with a looming hurricane season on the side.

A recent poll shows that 55% of Americans share this sentiment.

"Scientists say a crucial Atlantic system is more likely to collapse than previously thought. But the billionaire death cult that steers humanity’s destiny doesn’t do existential crises"

There’s always that “but”…

…because Republican empathy is on a one-minute timer.

Republicans introduce extreme bill to ban lawsuits against Big Oil forever Shouldn't Democrats... be saying something about this?

When candidate Trump was campaigning for his second term, there was no bigger issue than the economy. The Orange Emperor vowed he would lower prices "on day one". Why are forever wars with foreign countries now more important than providing Americans with basic necessities at an affordable price?

Now there are wildfires burning in Florida, will Trump blame the governor, claim they need to be raking the forests, then order the USACE to release reservoir water in South Carolina to somehow solve it?

That’s what he did Jan. 2025 to California.

Iran renaming the Strait of Hormuz to the Strait of Persia?

While charging tolls?

And banning ships from Israel?

Love this for Netanyahu and Trump.

What is happening in India under the authoritarian rule of Narenda Modi is EXACTLY what Trump and Republicans are attempting to do with their SAVE Act scam. Weaken American democracy to the point of nonexistence, where only the wealthy rule. 😳👇

WikiHow-style digital illustration of a man and a woman sitting on a white sofa. The man is dressed in construction gear, including a blue shirt, an orange safety vest, and a yellow hard hat; he is leaning forward with his head in his hand, looking exhausted or stressed. The woman sits next to him with a sympathetic expression, placing a hand on his shoulder. You okay babe? You don't look excited for another 55-hour work week where 40% of your pay is stolen by child eating pedophiles.

So did you! Weren’t those payments to confidential informants inside those groups?

That’s like saying the police "fund criminals" when they pay undercover officers.

I guess it's because I'm a physician, but I hate that man even more than I hate 47.

🚨BREAKING: Fox News poll shows Americans now prefer Democrats over Republicans on the economy by +4 points (52%-48%) — the FIRST time Democrats have led on this since 2010!

Even Fox’s own numbers are turning against Trump’s chaos. The GOP’s “economic genius” brand is collapsing.

Democrats offered amendments to use this money to fund health care, school meals, childcare, and reverse Republican cuts to SNAP and food assistance. Republicans blocked Every. Single. One.

The Big Ugly Bill 2.0 will now come to the House. As you know, I am a HELL NO.

‼️ Last night while you were sleeping, Senate Republicans passed a blank check of $70 BILLION dollars to fund ICE (with ZERO reforms added).
