If we permit Trump to go down his chosen path—if we permit him to lead us down this path—the legacy will be one not just of policy failure but of national dishonor.

“We have a complete embargo on all of their oil and their ability to do commerce. So for them to do commerce, they need our permission. For them to be able to run an economy, they need our permission. So the United States is in charge. The United States is running the country.”

Pretty much every single disruptive or obstructionist act you remember Mitch McConnell doing (he actually failed at most of them) happened after the GOP regained control of the senate and he became Majority Leader, not while they were in the minority.

Just amazing Canada and thanks to every single Canadian for their contribution. Lets not forget!

Stephen Miller, who wants the U.S. to steal Greenland and shake down Latin America, says: ”We live in a world … that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time.” That‘s a criminal pretending that a civilized world is impossible.

Can we rage against the machine now? We're free people. Why hang around here talking about it? The country is wounded & needs attention. The sooner We get started the sooner We can get back to our lives. The fact that our representatives have put us in this position is cause enough to overthrow them

My friend @charlotteclymer.bsky.social has written about Mark Kelly’s distinguished military career. This is not to be missed. open.substack.com/pub/charlott...

CNN: “Trump may have made a major miscalculation about Venezuela’s oil… 🇺🇸 oil executives are unlikely to dive in headfirst — the situation remains uncertain, 🇻🇪 oil industry is in shambles, history of seizing 🇺🇸 oil assets…” A big distraction/photo op www.reuters.com/business/ene...

Eye-popping new poll drops after Trump's controversial strike www.rawstory.com/eye-popping-...

MILLER: The US is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower. It's absurd we'd allow a nation in our backyard to become a supplier of resources to our adversaries TAPPER: Sovereign countries shouldn't be able to do what they want? M: *yells*

If parents vaccinate their child(ren) based on Bobby Jr's advice, they are idiots. And ditto for physicians who do the same. C'mon people.

A MAGAt rejects any truth that contradicts their dumbass opinions.

Hegseth is trying to take away Kelly’s pension and demote him to a lower rank for his participation in a video reminding the military of their rights which are in the Constitution Meanwhile the 5x draft dodger invades countries for oil. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory #OneV1 www.msn.com/en-us/news/p...

I think that’s it for me today on the internet. Time to read a book. I was thinking maybe reading about bubonic plague in the 14th century when things weren’t so crazy.

Everything I need to know about American politics I learned by being in an abusive relationship 🙃

CNN put together a montage of Trump being vocally against regime change before he fell in love with it

Ugh, he committed a lot of crimes, but I don't think it was those. Are we still blowing up fisherman?

Pam Bondi: "That means we know this monster released countless defendants, prisons, insane asylums into our country."

Bernie Sanders directly calls Stephen Miller an imperialist: He gave a very good definition of imperialism. "We can run any country we want" - is that what Americans want, I don't think so.

. The ONLY FREE NATION Soviet Communist Russian WAR CRIMINAL Vladimir Putin can visit is America because PUTIN OWNS REPUBLICAN TRAITOR Trump & MOST other Republican politician traitors in America's WH, CONGRESS & S.C. Nothing like a SOVIET COMMUNIST OWNING the CULT controlling our nation, is there?

NONE OF THIS IS A DISTRACTION.

Chris Murphy: "At some level he's winning tonight because clearly part of his intent here was to distract the American people -- you and I -- from what's happening here at home. You have 20 million families who are getting massive increases in their healthcare premiums. People will die."

The purpose of pushing impeachment articles through the House, via a fucking discharge petition if necessary, is to make Trump have to spend resources defending himself in the Senate. And if new impeachment articles come through every two weeks, you force the motherfucker on defense.

Stop pretending Donald Trump is doing anything but spitting in the face of the American people to help his friends in the oil industry. He's among just 6% of Americans who support the United States deciding who runs other countries. Almost *his entire base* opposes him on this.

January 6, 2021 was the most shameful day in American history. It should live in infamy. We will never forget it, and we will not let the nation or the world forget — despite the revisionism of Trump and his lackeys in the Republican Party.

Hegseth didn’t have the courage to give Mark Kelly a trial by court martial because he knew he would lose it and be humiliated. So he is taking the cowardly way out. Whatever action he takes unilaterally will discredit US military civilian leadership and be reversed in 3 years.

MICHIGAN: Police arrest protestor of Trump’s attack on Venezuela while she’s live on air 🤔🇺🇸

Dear Powers That Be: This is not a political doctrine. This is a pastime for children. Grow up.

This looks identical to what happened and happens in Russia . Omg

It's time for a general strike if we can do it for Jimmy Kimmel we sure as hell can do it to stop fucking trump it's go time !

Trump: We're gonna run Venezuela. What? The supreme court, parliament, the courts, military, currency maintenance, societal priorities and garbage collection? Trump's going to control all that? Trump today: We can't do all that. We forgot to think about that much stuff.

In the era of affordability politics, making clean energy cheaper may be a more viable emissions mitigation strategy than making dirty energy more expensive. My latest over at The Climate Brink digs into the debate:
