Sam Stein on Twitter: “here we go again. Trump's leverage point once more is the aching terror inside most rational human beings that he may not be bluffing THIS time around.”

The President of the United States started his Sunday by threatening the people of Iran with more war crimes.

Trump is deeply unwell and Congress must reassert its power to end the regime’s illegal war. Demand that your elected officials act with urgency: act.indivisible.org/sign/no-iran...

One example not mentioned by host: Australia's gas exploitation & export deal allows exploiters to export "gas surplus to requirements" free of royalties.

We're giving it away >>> then buying it back @ worldwide spot prices during supply crisis!!!

Pretty typical Oz govt deal.

“From the liver to the brie,” one sign read.

“Globalise the insalata,” read another.

“Well played,” said one police officer.

Well played indeed Queenslanders.

Great having more women in Parlt making policy .
Would be refreshing to see young progressive men in politics . We need less combative and angry men who want to fight in the workplace and big note themselves.
We need role models to talk about men’s role in DV, mental health and a multicultural Oz

Hezbollah exists as a DIRECT result of Israeli violence in Lebanon. Literally.

They formed in 1982 following Israel's invasion and occupation. They drove the IDF out of southern Lebanon in 2000.

Western news media defiantly fails to report these facts. #IsraeliTerrorism #LebanonUnderAttack

Obama came out today to remind everyone of the good old days when a president was allowed to go within 500ft of a school.

They gave him the big crayon!

Pay attention folks. This is how it's done. Trump sues his own DOJ, run by his private attorney, for $10 billion. Normally that would go through the courts with the DOJ arguing AGAINST giving Trump $10 billion.

Instead, his DOJ will negotiate a settlement OUTSIDE of court. Literally inside dealing.

(alongside images of the US, megaphones, Liam Conejo Ramos’ bunny hat, and signs that read “NO ICE WAREHOUSE,” “SHUTDOWN DETENTION CENTERS,” and “NOT HERE/NOT ANYWHERE”) NATIONAL DAY OF ACTION STOP ICE WAREHOUSE DETENTION APRIL 25, 2026

NEXT SATURDAY: Americans will gather again at nationwide events in defense of immigrants in our communities. The regime is buying up warehouses to convert into concentration camps, and we must come together to oppose the literal warehousing of people in our country: www.mobilize.us/disappearedi...

Great Question, Winona.......

If you need me I will be with the aunties

We have more than a little work to do. We could start with adopting the Nordic education system, Japan's gun laws, etc. Take the best programs other countries have and implement them here. We might actually be great one day. Personally, I'm tired of the rich ruling us. We need a Social Democracy!

Thank you very much Senator Warren, not sure why this attempted theft wasn’t already illegal, but that needs to change ASAP!

Can’t even believe he is trying to do something so reprehensible, blatantly stealing from the American people, completely unacceptable!

I wonder what they've got on him?

The markets rise and fall on the word of a self serving pathological liar. That alone should have you questioning the validity of a capitalist focused societal structure.

At 8:31 pm Friday, the US Treasury prolonged Russia's exemption from US oil sanctions for another month. Two days earlier Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent had promised that this would not be done.
This is sufficient proof that Trump works for Putin.

Chaos is deliberate. Courage is chosen. And we are the system. The Chaos-Comfort Paradox: why we grip what is failing us, and how we take back the ground.

The chaos is not accidental. It is manufactured by people who benefit when the rest of us are too exhausted to push back.
But exhaustion is not weakness. It is biology. And biology can be interrupted. Courage is the small step taken anyway.
Onward we press.

No. Ffs. I can't believe all the fuckery that is happening.

The Hill: Trump will participate in an “America Reads the Bible” marathon amid his feud with Pope Leo XIV, starting Saturday night.

Donald Trump:
Opens Bible
Doesn’t see his name.
Closes Bible.
#ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #VoteOutRepublicans

I don't envy him getting to be PM at this point in history.

Lol! It's true! There are few authors I trust with horror and T. Kingfisher is one. Sheri S Tepper, KJ Charles and Pauli Kidd are the 3 others.

Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.

Child: I know your name. Mamdani.

Obama: What’s his first name?

Child: Mayor.

Gas corporations will make up to $107 billion in Australian exports this year thanks to Trump’s new war, while paying a lower rate of tax than a nurse.

"The masters of war pretend not to know that it takes only a moment to destroy, yet a lifetime is often not enough to rebuild. They turn a blind eye to the fact that billions of dollars are spent on killing and devastation, yet the resources needed for healing, education and restoration are nowhere to be found." -Pope Leo XIV

It's such a sweet story.

Pope Leo XIV:
“The President of the United States has said that I insult Jesus”...
“You want to know what truly insults Jesus? It is when we turn away from those who suffer, when we close our hearts to the poor, and when we choose power over compassion while others cry out for mercy.”

Trump has launched three more boat strikes this week, bringing the total death toll to 177.

Remember: No judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're taking Trump's word for it.

This is murder. We must not lose sight of this lawlessness.
