That would have paid a few nurses, ambulance medics, teachers, rail workers, and helped to reduce energy bills. Pity all that money went instead to hedge funds and investment bankers who shorted our economy.

The people doing these ads are simply the best out there. This is an incredibly powerful and painfully accurate message to the American voter.
It's almost time. You have the power to make a choice for America.

Diplomacy isn’t a real estate deal, so why are we sending Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to negotiate with Putin? These two jackasses are too busy complimenting a dictator instead of standing up for America and our allies.

Exactly what we need in the absence of a functioning U.S. Department of Justice. An organization of ex-prosecutors and investigators who help can put cases together for current and future prosecutors who will restore accountability for corrupt federal officials and those who benefit from that corruption.
We are facing a crisis of impunity. That's why we built The Rule of Law Project — to investigate unlawful conduct by federal officials, and work with state and local prosecutors to hold them to account. Watch former DOJ prosecutor Mark Blumberg and human rights leader Brad Adams launch this critical accountability initiative on MSNOW with Nicolle Wallace.

I don’t think I ever believed I’d see a newspaper paragraph like this: President Trump ‘said he would welcome immigrants from Denmark but not from Norway “because ‌I didn’t get the Nobel Prize, so I don’t want anybody from Norway”.’

India said NO to Starlink. Musk thought he could throw a public tantrum and bully India into handing him a telecom monopoly, but he completely miscalculated. Thanks to Trump’s reckless betrayal of global allies and cozying up to dictators, the world is waking up to a terrifying truth: you simply cannot trust America—or its arrogant billionaires—with your national security anymore. Fareed Zakaria: “Elon Musk picked the wrong moment to lecture Indians. Frustrated that Starlink had not been cleared to launch in that country, he accused the government of protecting Mukesh Ambani whose telecom network Jio will launch its own satellite service. Musk cast himself as the champion of ordinary Indians against one of the country's richest men. It backfired. India's government dismissed his accusation as baseless. An influential nationalist group close to the ruling party went further demanding that Starlink be kept out of India altogether citing national security. Media and online reactions were similarly hostile to Starlink. Musk did not understand that in India as in much of the world, trust in America is collapsing. Indians have watched as Donald Trump has discarded 25 years of bipartisan outreach to New Delhi in favor of cozying up to Pakistan and its de facto dictator Field Marshal Asim Munir. They have watched Trump essentially abandon Ukraine, where the military version of Starlink has been suspiciously restricted, thus crippling Ukraine's military response to Russian aggression. Would India define itself in another crisis with Pakistan? Would it want its armed forces to be utterly dependent on a US satellite system controlled by Trump?”

All you American bishops now coming out individually to express your regret for that White House meeting. You did not “appear” partisan - you were partisan. You revealed yourself publicly precisely as you are in reality - fools, every one of you. Shame on you.

“Today, if you openly criticise President Trump or his policies, you may lose your job, your licence to broadcast, your funding, your government contracts or possibly even your liberty. What kind of freedom is that? And it will probably come as no surprise to anyone that this unwinding of American democracy has enabled the largest upwards transfer of wealth in American history - billionaires have seen their wealth accelerate while the most vulnerable have seen their benefits and public services slashed”
Since the beginning of Trump’s second term, American democracy has been unwound at frightening speed. Analysis by the V-Dem Institute shows the rate of democratic backsliding in the US is faster than we saw in Hungary, India, Russia, or Serbia. And if we don’t take urgent action it could happen here too 99-percent.org/getting-your-…

Trump on high gas prices: I don't give a damn. We're making a freaking fortune.
Trump currently holds up to $81 million in oil and gas stocks. His stocks have increased in value by 43% since the end of 2025.

This is not normal. It is a telltale sign of Trump's drift into insanity, and it is not even close to being acceptable conduct from a president of the United States.

Obama wrecked him.
Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

As always, this Russian attack is happening with the assistance of the USA which is denying Ukraine Patriot missiles, even ones that have already been paid for.
Monday night and Russia has just launched a ballistic missile strike on the dormitories of Kyiv's State University of Trade and Economics. Students are dead.
