Trump's "business deals" with the Russians are just billions of dollars in bribes from Putin to get Trump to sell out Ukraine and betray our NATO allies.

Great piece about my dear friend Melissa Hortman. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

To be clear.

I didn't watch but apparently it went about as we expected: nothing but total lies. Pathetic.

A rare moment of bipartisanship

Didn't get what they wanted.

McDonald’s USA — Employee: $15/hr, no benefits — Big Mac: $5.79 McDonald’s Denmark — Employee: $22/hr, 6 weeks vacation, 1 year paid maternity leave, life insurance, pension — Big Mac: $5.49 Tell us more about how raising the minimum wage would affect the cost of hamburgers.

I wrote this 3 years ago today. Nothing I have seen since has changed my mind. But it will, of course, not happen. We will NOT defeat Putin - western politicians just want this war 'to go away.' It will - eventually - but as long as Putin stays in power, it will never 'go away' for long.....1/2

This is one tough read.

JUST NOW…

I’m demanding the House vote now to extend ACA tax credits before the December 31 deadline. Congress shouldn’t leave for the holidays without stopping health care costs from skyrocketing! youtu.be/Fy7xTXgSa8M

Massie: Previous presidents told us to go to war over WMDs that did not exist. Now it's the same playbook. Except we're told that drugs are the WMDs. If it were about drugs, we'd bomb Mexico or China or Colombia. This is about oil and regime change.

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels. Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on. And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking. Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy. It's a power grab.

#GVerse #BreakingNews Rep. Chip Roy has a complete meltdown because his fellow Republicans have failed to address healthcare, offering "milquetoast garbage," says all members of Congress need to go. 15 years, not even a concept of a plan. Republicans are to blame.

This fucking lunatic is gonna take over the Presidency?

I mean everyone voted for fewer jobs, more war and more expensive healthcare, right?

He'll start a war to: 1. Distract from the Epstein Files 2. Steal oil 3. Justify emergency powers 4. Justify use of the AEA for deportation/internment 5. Help the drug lord he just pardoned

If only there was a mechanism to remove a mentally disabled president from office. Oh, wait… If only there was a VP and cabinet majority that understood their duty granted by the 25th amendment…

How did we let this happen????

🐘

Massive defeat for Mike Johnson. Still has to clear the senate, but this is what Dems wanted all along. Johnson has essentially lost control of the gavel after Epstein and now this. Weakest speaker in history.

How bad must the Epstein files be if he's willing to start a war to try and distract us from it?

So Hard To Lie, When We Always Bring In The Receipts...

WTF? ICE is arguing in court that US CITIZENS can be detained, handcuffed, and biometrically screened unless they can prove citizenship on the spot. And that a REAL ID isn't enough. This isn't border security.

On Canadian tv if Trump does a press conference they run about 30 seconds then cut away adding “he’s just repeating things he’s been saying for years” that’s what US tv needs to do. Shut him off. He just rambles.

Walz: "'I don't know, do you really think limiting them to less than 100 bullets is going to do anything?' Yes! Yes it is. Yes it is going to save lives ... it's time to start reporting that that is all bullshit. It does do something. It does make a difference."

Bingo

It seems that Friday we will be at war, to keep the EPSTEIN files hidden.

NY AG Letitia James has sued UPS for stealing millions in wages from its seasonal holiday workers. UPS' CEO made over $24M last year — over 436x her median worker's pay. This is a reminder that states can step up and protect workers when Trump's federal government refuses to.

The Times: Trump is trying to talk Austria, Hungary, Poland, and Italy into following Britain’s economic catastrophe by exiting the EU. This would badly weaken both the EU and NATO, and greatly aid Putin.

😬

Trump is a weak man. Even in the most powerful position in the world, he still throws tantrums when he feels threatened. That’s why he dodged the draft. He knew the army was one place where his money and privilege wouldn’t protect him.

Please read every word of this article, and please pass it on. We need to understand the day to day reality of what’s happening, and know how to help. It is no exaggeration to say that the United States is under occupation, and we are in the beginning stages of another Underground Railroad.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy. What's required is investment in working people — and better wages. When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs. Remember this.

If you walked into the voting booth and put a fucking check mark next to "Donald J. Trump" for President, you cannot fucking say "I didn't vote for this". YES YOU DID. You checked the box, you posted the memes, you owned the libs, and now we are all being rewarded for your hatred and racism. Thanks.

AOC: This president has absolutely tanked the economy... Video from: @pabloreports.bsky.social

Gotta say it's mindblowing to me that the Brown shooter is still at large and they don't even seem to have identified who they're looking for.

I don’t understand how a guy with 360° peripheral vision can’t catch anyone.

It’s time to speak up while you still can.

[email protected] : Were you satisfied with the answers you’ve gotten so far in this classified briefing on Venezuela? AOC: Oh, hell no. It was a joke. This was not a serious intelligence briefing. This was the communication of an opinion.

If you lose Fox News on basic human decency, you’re not leading. You’re rotting.

MINNEAPOLIS: “We kept yelling ‘she’s pregnant! She’s pregnant!’ — they put their knees in her… the handcuffed woman was dragged on the ground…” Lawless.

Fox News will continue to gaslight their low IQ audience, but we all know what's happening to Trump. The rapid decline is unmistakable. 😳👇

Pretty crazy that Musk willfully killed 100,000's of people *earlier this year* yet Corporate Media still regularly talks about him without mentioning that.
