Independent. We need politicians NOT under the influence of billionaires who believe and ACT on facts and science. The two party system has failed us.

This is going to fall apart. They’re trying to intimidate voters.
Trump’s DOJ is accusing states of registering thousands of noncitizens to vote. There’s just one problem. Their own evidence is blowing up in their faces.
In Nevada, they claimed 16,000 noncitizens were registered. Then they produced just 185 names. Nevada checked every single one. All 185 were U.S. citizens.
California is already finding similar problems, including people born right here in America.

The State Department has asked some foreign service officials up for promotion who they voted for in the 2016, 2020 and 2024 presidential elections, raising concerns the agency is violating a federal law that bars politicized personnel decisions within the nonpartisan ranks.

Elon Musk, an African immigrant and private individual, has hijacked U.S. foreign policy. He sabotaged American defence assistance provided to Ukrainian partners and violated binding inter-state agreements. Musk has to be prosecuted for his crimes and treason.

SCOOP: The State Dept has started asking career diplomats up for promotion if they voted for Trump in 16, 20, 24.
Federal law prohibits politically based hiring for career staff.
State tells @washingtonsun it's screening for "fidelity" and execution of the president's vision👇

Overnight, Russia attacked Ukraine with "humanitarian" ballistic missiles, "humanitarian" cluster munitions, and "humanitarian" drones.
In Kyiv, an "Epicentr" store in Pochaina was destroyed by the overnight strikes.

Wondering why Trump's labor department keeps telling you the jobs market is going gangbusters but by all appearences its NOT?
Trump admin is lying.
Trump won’t survive discovery.
He will drop the lawsuit before that happens.

When first reported, 2025’s jobs reports added up to 1.2 million new jobs.
After revisions, the economy added just 116,000 — 90% less.

Whoa. The U.S. added 90% fewer jobs in 2025 than originally reported.
That’s not a rounding error. That’s a massive difference between the economy Americans were told we had and the one we actually had.

It’s now officially confirmed.
Tonight, russia struck Kyiv’s historic centre with an Iskander ballistic missile carrying a cluster warhead.
58 submunitions explode in mid-air, designed to inflict maximum casualties across a 400 × 400 metre area.
“This strike had no military purpose. The goal was to destroy part of the old city and injure as many people as possible,” said a Ukrainian presidential adviser.
No military objective. Just terror.

So tomorrow, the first tanker carrying 40,000 metric tons of Russian diesel is set to depart for the US. Let’s do the math.
40,000 tons is roughly 300,000 barrels.
The US consumes about 4 million barrels of diesel per day. That means this entire tanker covers less than two hours of American demand.
At the same time, the US exports around 1.5 million barrels of diesel a day—meaning this shipment is equivalent to just 4.5 hours of US exports.
The voyage from Ust-Luga to US terminals takes 2.5 to 3 weeks. By the time the tanker arrives, the US will have exported over 4 million tons of its own diesel—a hundred times more than what this single tanker is delivering.
So, one of the world's largest diesel exporters is buying diesel from an aggressor state just to cover two hours of domestic consumption? - Presidential Commissioner for Sanctions Policy Vladyslav Vlasiuk.

This is happening in a lot of states. Republicans are trying to cheat.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Florida uses only paper ballots (hand-marked or printed via accessible devices like ExpressVote for review before optical scanning); no systems allow or default electronic party selections, and straight-party voting is unavailable.

The Department of Justice’s new fraud whistleblower scheme has instantly backfired, with Americans bombarding it with demands to investigate Trump.

A protester just now at Trump’s rally was just punched multiple times by a Trump supporter. Notice how the protester gets kicked out, but the guy who assaulted him is praised by Trump, who then says that he loved watching it.
These people are in a sick cult. They cheer on violence as long as the violence is directed against those who aren’t in the cult.

She’s not alone. Other Tennessee voters have reported similar problems while attempting to vote for Democrats.
