Killing civilians, kidnapping Ukrainian children, murdering political foes and critics—a real humanitarian, right? Every American should be embarrassed by this Putin-lovin' lickspittle.

"A town got hit or whatever."
Anhelina, a one-year-old, was killed in her stroller by a Russian Shahed yesterday in Kharkiv. Her mother, Inna Mariukhna, was also killed.

Over 20% of Conway County residents are 65 or older, and yet…
French, you voted against the $35 monthly cap on insulin, and the Part D out-of-pocket cap.
But at least you got dinner and a photo.

Why is a publicly regulated utility allowed to redact details in paperwork for a data center? Seems like the public & ratepayers should have a right to know what's going on with a project that will impact them for decades.

So a court of law that agreed with a 12-year-old little girl that her mother‘s husband had raped her is lying???
How low will these people go?
Vance: The media and the Democrats in the state of Ohio are obsessed because Vivek Ramaswamy had the audacity to run a TV commercial which calls it out like it is and calls Amy Acton a liar.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The ad features Amy Acton's estranged mother disputing Acton's account of childhood homelessness, rape and abuse. Both 1978 Mahoning County court records and Acton's brother, Phillip Stearns, corroborate her account of living in a tent and abuse.

Nothing makes a MAGA happier than protecting pedophiles and demonizing victims.

IHere's what Pres.Trump has done for Vladimir Putin since 2017:
🇺🇸➡️🇷🇺 First term
1Stood next to Putin in Helsinki and took his word over U.S. intelligence
2Lobbied to bring Russia back into the G7
3Withheld military aid from Ukraine to squeeze Zelensky (impeachment #1)
4Pulled out of Syria, handing Russia a freer hand
5Openly questioned NATO's mutual-defense pledge
6Lifted sanctions on Deripaska-linked companies, including Rusal
7Walked away from the INF nuclear treaty
8Walked away from the Open Skies treaty, leaving our European allies with less visibility
🇺🇸➡️🇷🇺 Second term
9. Called Russia's G7 expulsion a "mistake"
10. Declared Moscow "holds all the cards"
11. Opened talks with Russia with zero preconditions
12. Berated Zelensky in the Oval Office, then paused aid and intel to Ukraine
13. Halted offensive cyber operations against Russia
14. Had the U.S. vote WITH Russia against a UN resolution condemning the invasion
15. Said "Crimea will stay with Russia"
16. Rolled out the red carpet for Putin in Alaska
17. Pressed Ukraine, not Russia, to give up territory
18. Starshield
19. Diesel
20. Revoke Graham sanctions
That's not "America First."
You could never make that list of things a President has done for Zelensky, or for NATO. Ask yourself why.

Hey @TomCottonAR? Do you think Elon Musk, who CONFESSED to immigration fraud, should be denaturalized? Should you refuse money from him, given how his nonconsensual porn robot took school photos from kids in Bentonville and turned them into child sexual abuse material?

The Trump regime is so out of touch they don’t even know low income Americans exist, apparently. Incredible stuff.
Hassett: "If economic polls were correct, then people wouldn't be taking trips to nice hotels, they wouldn't be flying, they wouldn't be buying cars, they wouldn't be doing all the things they do when they're feeling good about the economy ... people are acting like we're in a boom. We are in a boom"

Now that @AbdulElSayed has been asked to disavow the Muslim Brotherhood because of his mother’s alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood before he was born, will we be asking Donald Trump to disavow the Ku Klux Klan because of his father’s alleged ties to the KKK in the 1920s?

Mike Huckabee is the US Ambassador to Israel. His son sells trips there through the family business.
A sitting ambassador’s family running a tourism business to the very country he’s assigned to.
What the actual fuck? How is this not a massive conflict of interest?

This design appears to completely eliminate the much-beloved loop road and public park at Hains Point, and cut down the cherry trees which line the road. The park is a public space used by tens of thousands of Washingtonians and heavily visited by tourists.

Vance is confronted by the emotional husband of a soldier killed in Iran War and acts like he had no idea anyone ever died:
Q: It's a hard price to pay. There's a failure in the leadership. How will the leadership be held accountable?
Vance: If there were failures... This is the first time I've heard of this.
