I say without hyperbole that this is the most brazenly corrupt action in US Presidential history. That it does not immediately lead to impeachment is a dangerous sign of how far the rule of law has declined.

if I were the governor of Colorado I would simply not pardon an attempted election thief for no reason whatsoever

UN: Hospitals across Cuba are suspending surgeries, struggling to keep lifesaving equipment running and facing severe medicine shortages as blackouts and fuel shortages push the country’s healthcare system deeper into crisis, senior UN officials warned on Friday.

"Israeli prisons sexually abusing Palestinian prisoners using dogs" -There are prisoners testimonies. -I've seen Israeli military wardens on TV boasting about using dogs for abuse This should be investigated seriously, not dismissed, especially given horrific conditions in Israeli prisons.

"A history professor course could not allocate instructional time to the Stonewall riots or the gay rights movement. If a U.S. history textbook includes a chapter on the AIDS crisis, the professor must skip it." www.erininthemorning.com/p/texas-tech...

This president’s voters chose him to protect and dignify women’s sports They never minded his record of locker room talk Here is how he chooses to congratulate a women’s sports team To be this misogynistic, you really have to try To be this incompetent, you really have to be misogynistic

LUTNICK: It is outrageous that Canada will not put US spirits on the shelf. It is insulting and disrespectful to America SHAHEEN: They won't do it because of the insults from this president and comments like yours

Why would you trust orthodox economists? None predicted the GFC and there explanations for economic activity are rooted in Newtonian physics. So much so money is not even defined or indexed in their textbooks. It is conservative pseudo science with historical links to fascism & white supremacy

There is a way to radically loosen Wall Street's grip on cities' finances—if we are bold enough to envision and organize for it. @greenbackbetter.bsky.social of @moneyontheleft.bsky.social helps us envision an alternative way to "rate" public bonds.

JUST IN: 🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister says President Trump "talks too much" and makes contradictory statements.

American Capitalism: From the “Robber Barons” to Naval Piracy

Do you laugh or do you cry? Trump got trolled.

Total capitulation by the Trump administration. What a complete and utter humiliation!

Axios: Trump shocked Netanyahu with post declaring Lebanon strikes "prohibited". Israel asked the White House for clarifications. I think it is theater.

The incoming crisis of inflation cannot be fixed by hiking interest rates. As President Gustavo Petro and I discussed today in Barcelona, it will require bold economic policy — from food price stabilization to ambitious energy investment. Gracias, Presidente 🇨🇴

Stevens to RFK Jr: "To top it off, Mr Secretary, I got a copy of HR-944. You know what it is? It's your impeachment articles, sir. You have abused your office, you have gutted America's public health! You should be ashamed."

Remember this fuck when his name comes on the ballot.

If this actually happens, it may rank as the single most corrupt act in the history of American politics. I cannot believe this is even under discussion.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian: “They call us terrorists, but the real terrorists are themselves. They kill anyone, anywhere, whenever they want, and then speak about human rights. Shame on them!”

Thou shalt not commit blasphemy against Samuel L. Jackson’s monologue in Pulp Fiction, motherfucker.

feels almost quaint to post about how much the big banks are spending juicing their stock prices with major spending on stock buybacks $33 billion *in one quarter* giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

As an American. A decision to buy a gun and go sh**t somebody. I get convicted and go to jail. An a health Insurance exec. makes the decision to deny care and kill someone. He gets a bonus.

Bible verse (Ezekiel 25:17) quoted by Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) in Pulp Fiction is largely fake and was custom-written for the movie by Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary. Pentagon sermon ⬇️

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty: "Are we concerned as to whether there would be federal blowback? Not a concern of ours. Our role is to hold people accountable if they violate the laws of Minnesota. We feel strongly that this ICE agent committed 2nd degree assault."

Confirmation that Trump does not know what the facts actually are.

🇮🇷⚡️🇮🇱🇺🇸 Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian: “They call us terrorists, but the real terrorists are themselves. They kill anyone, anywhere, whenever they want, and then speak about human rights. Shame on them!”

A year ago, I wrote that state prosecutors can enforce criminal laws against lawless federal "law enforcement" agents when the DOJ refuses to. That is now happening, and it is past time. 1/

“I don’t want to see the pope as a politician” lady I got some news for you about how you get elected pope by a conclave of powerful men who all have strong opinions on how one of the oldest institutions in the world should be run

JD Vance gets heckled at TPUSA event: “You’re killing children!”

More Americans believe the government is doing too little to protect the environment

58% of Americans say protecting the environment is more important even if the economy suffers some

Because Pres. Trump, his Board Of Peace, & High Rep. Nickolay Mladenov allow Israel to continue assassinating CIVILIAN police officers throughout Gaza, 3-y.o. child Yahya Al-Malahi is dead today. An Israeli drone fired a missile into a police vehicle on Al-Nafaq Street in Gaza City, killing the...

Good News: The International Court of Justice has declared it has jurisdiction to put Israel on trial. Official legal ruling issued. Court asserts authority to proceed. Also: Italian Prime Minister Meloni announces suspension of military cooperation and defense agreements with Israel.

Here's Dustin Guastella in Jacobin, announcing that he agrees with Matt Yglesias and every right-wing consultant that the Dems' problem is that they care too much about women and black people. jacobin.com/2026/04/who-...

Today, Pamela Jo Bondi, our most recent head of the Department of Justice, is blithely ignoring a valid, legal subpoena requiring her to testify before Congress. We are not a nation of laws. We are a nation of some people can get away with anything.

Imagine any other country openly saying this—threatening to kill foreign political leaders if negotiations don’t go their way. It would be called terrorism. In the US political sphere, it gets printed as strategy.

Turned on NBC. They talked about “President tipping a DoorDash driver $100”. This woman participated in GOP ads before playing other roles. There is no DoorDash deliveries to the Oval Office. Please exercise proper judgement when consuming news.

One of my cartoons in Monday's Metro

The Jews are not the problem here; Zionism is, and Zionism has absolutely nothing to do with Judaism or the Semitic people. In fact, Zionism is really just another malignant cell of white supremacy, and it has long disdained both Judaism and most people of Semitic descent.

How is the PRESIDENT AND SECRETARY OF STATE AT A UFC FIGHT in Miami while war negotiations affecting the world economy are falling apart. PROBABLY PLAY GOLF tomorrow too.

Blockade of the blockade, it would be funny except the disastrous shortages and shocks unleashed on the world www.ft.com/content/49fb...
