Pete Buttigieg would be a good DNC spokesperson. He would do a GREAT job of going around the country, being on TV all the time, and putting out Dem messaging on EVERY issue. He would be an excellent counter-Leavitt. And we NEED one. He should be holding regular press conferences and putting

Another late night threat by Donald Trump, and this time he’s going after people in just one state w/ legal status. Maybe the President should spend his evenings working on bringing down costs instead of targeting Somalis who have been in our country for years. Think about it.

🕯🇺🇦 Today we honor the memory of millions of Ukrainians whose lives were taken by one of the most terrible tragedies in human history - Holodomor. It was a crime carried out by Moscow totalitarian state. A crime whose purpose was not only to take away bread, but also to break spirit of Ukrainians.

This young man has it exactly right.

Americans remain “frustrated” about rising prices and have a dimming view of their personal finances, a survey found.

speaking as a virginia beach native if these kind of dudes are plotting against ICE then there is wide runway in public opinion for straight up abolishing the agency under a dem presidency

Why russia cannot help but invade? Been pondering this question for a decade now... 🇷🇺 didn’t “return” to dictatorship under POO-tihn. It never left.

Congress, pay attention. We the People decide where our money goes — not the President. And we are demanding full support for Ukraine, with everything they need to win. Trump does not hold the power of the purse. The American people do. Act accordingly.

This is not a peace plan. It's complete capitulation to the war criminal in the Kremlin, orchestrated exclusively by Trump and his apparent master there without any input from Europe or Ukraine. It is obscene that the White House even saw fit to advance this proposal, let alone issue an ultimatum.

28 points, written by the Kremlin. Fuck that. Fuck Trump! And fuck Putin.

Russia killed second-grader Ameliia Hzhesko and her mother, Oksana Dokhtor, by a strike on #Ternopil on the night of 19 November. The mother and daughter died embracing each other, according to the school Ameliia attended. Deepest condolences…

www.politico.eu/article/stev... the United States’ new 28-point blueprint for a ceasefire includes a rival idea for using those frozen assets for American-led reconstruction efforts once a truce has been agreed. The U.S. would take “50 percent” of the profit from this activity, the document said.

We have a US administration trying to bully Ukrainians into accepting Russia’s proposal that their sovereignty be undone. Aside from the naked injustice of this, there are five basic practical reasons why it would make the world far more dangerous. (video) snyder.substack.com/p/the-putin-...

Too bad Trump didn't learn from history! 🤬

America has seriously miscalculated, through ignorance. Zelensky is not an autocrat. He can’t unilaterally accept Ukraine’s surrender, and would be removed if he did. And he knows that, and should draw strength from that.

www.theguardian.com/world/live/2... Hybris was classified by the Greeks as a legal term, where the fatal flaw leads inexorably to ruin. So this law, once broken, well, there is no escape from consequences May Trump's hybris focus the gods on him. SLAVA UKRAINI!!!

What's weirdly missing from coverage of the Dem video is any discussion of this Q: Is it reasonable to fear Trump is giving illegal orders, or not? The answer is, yes, of course it is. On the boat bombings, for instance, evidence is extensive. Here's a look at it: newrepublic.com/article/2035...

The correct answer to MAGA outrage over the Dem video is this: Are you effing kidding me? Of course it's reasonable to warn that Trump might be giving illegal orders. The evidence is strong that he actually is giving illegal orders! I went through that evidence here: newrepublic.com/article/2035...

It keeps getting better 🍿😆
