The Democrats biggest error since Newt Gingrich came to power is treating Republicans like moral actors who play by the rules.
Republicans will do anything to retain power-lie, cheat, steal, kill. Democrats need to stop caving to them. We get burned every single time.

Wow, Ukraine was able to retaliate to Russia hacking its alert system by hacking Russiaโs own alert system almost immediately.
Ukraine is stunning Russia with its capability to fight fire with fire.
Ukraine has more than Putin knows.

A ce jour, j'ai pu identifier en sources ouvertes 27 comptes d'influenceurs Maga affiliรฉs ร Storm-1516 qui ont primo-diffusรฉ du contenu ciblant la France depuis juin 2026, et 1/3 de ces comptes ont รฉtรฉ suspendus hier par X. Il ne faut pas perdre de vue que ce que l'on appelle en France "Magasphรจre" est bien souvent, et de longue date, une "Poutinosphรจre".

Karl Marx was right. He warned us that capitalism would result in a dictatorship of the super rich. Look at our lives now. The super rich are controlling everything, but they are never on the ballot paper.

Muslims didn't storm the Capitol on January 6 to try to steal an election or overthrow our government.
White Christian Nationalists did, racist militia groups did, and fucking Trump supporters did.

The implication here is that rather than ending strikes in an unpopular war, the administration instead decided not to report them.
EXCLU: The U.S. attacked Iranโs Qeshm Island on Monday, U.S. officials said, in the latest of a series of limited strikes Washington has secretly carried out against the country in recent weeks as President Trump touted the possibility of a diplomatic deal.

The clearest sign weโve seen of how paranoid Trump is.
๐ The US military has deployed surface-to-air missile systems around Mar-a-Lago at the request of the Secret Service, citing a โheightened threat environment.โ
The man who promised to make America safe again now needs a missile defense system in his own backyard.
Also, WTF is this costing us?
