America's chief Middle East negotiator - Jared Kushner - is almost completely dependent on Middle East government investment in his chief business. It's probably the biggest conflict of interest in American diplomatic history and we should be talking about this way more.

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

AOC on possibly running for the Senate or President: They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.

Dear Corporate media: when covering Tennessee, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia and Louisiana now drawing new congressional maps so their congressional districts are whites only please note these were all former slave states that were part of the Confederacy who waged war on the USA.

30 percent of Americans are against [squints at notes] the Pope urging peace

Congrats to Julie K. Brown! She was awarded a #Pulitzer Prize special citation today for her groundbreaking reporting in 2017 & 2018 for the Miami Herald exposing Jeffrey Epstein's systematic abuse of young women and the justice system & powerful network of associates that protected him for years.

This is an excellent question.

Average U.S. gas prices per gallon on April 29, per AAA: • Regular: $4.23 (⬆️ $1.25 since war in Iran began on Feb. 28) • Premium: $5.09 (⬆️ $1.23 since war began) • Diesel: $5.47 (⬆️ $1.71 since war began)

"The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power." — FDR

He lives in Thailand goes by a different name, holds 12% of one of the world's most profitable companies,appeared in the Panama Papers and has given £22M to Farage's parties This is the man bankrolling the party that says it speaks for working people. Who is Harborne & what does he want in return

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

While he was detained at Dilley for over four months, 13-year-old Gustavo Santiago said he felt as if he would “never get out.” “I just ask that you don’t forget about us,” he told ProPublica in a video call. (Published Feb.)

More of this, less of bombing other countries (From @acyn.bsky.social )

Remember this fuck when his name comes on the ballot.

📌Pope Leo XIV TODAY: “The world is being ravaged by a handful of tyrants. Blessed are the peacemakers, but woe to those who manipulate religion and the name of God for their own military, economic and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.” He is NOT backing down.

Send him to Moscow.

Jim Jordan is commenting on Eric Swalwell's sexual misconduct allegations. Jordan was assistant wrestling coach at Ohio State while team doctor Richard Strauss sexually abused at least 177 athletes. Multiple wrestlers testified under oath they told Jordan. He did nothing. He was never charged.

Love David Byrne….hope the kids at Coachella were paying attention and appreciated the genius they were witnessing last night "Love and Kindness are a form of resistance"

Sad I gotta take down the Eric Swalwell posters in my kids' rooms.

“We want to live in a free, European Democracy. After 16 years of sorrow, corruption and Russian influence. We have had enough” The organisers & singers at the massive Budapest concert told me why Orban has to go.

Do Americans know that their Vice President was in Hungary campaigning for a Putin ally to be reelected, instead of in DC during a war in which Putin is helping Iran target Americans?

Vance, Trump, Putin and Netanyahu all support Orbán, which is all the evidence you need that he is way behind in the polls (which as a matter of fact he is) and running a wild campaign of lies (which as a matter of fact he is).

Caolan Robertson went to Hungary yesterday while Vance was there to uncover Orban's massive corruption. youtu.be/H8LUPh_6qMg?...

If you havent seen this, make sure you read.

Greta Thunberg: "The President of the United States just said that a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again & no one is reacting. This speaks for itself: what the fuck is anyone even doing at this point? We have normalized genocide, total annihilation of entire people."

At pre-election rallies in #Hungary, the crowd began chanting: #Russians — go home! The historic slogan "Ruszkik haza" emerged during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and was directed against the #Soviet occupation 👍

According to the Times:

I said this in replies elsewhere, but I want to say it loudly here. Anything other than a fullthroated affirmation of birthright citizenship in this country by SCOTUS is an act of treason. It is grounds for immediate impeachment. It is a violation of every oath they have made.

We don’t do kings in America. The power will always be to the people.

NASHVILLE Handmaids getting love across 🇺🇸

Melanie Stansbury: “There are at least two separate incidences that are in the Epstein files between the DOJ's files & the files that came from the estate that alleged sexual misconduct & rape of a minor by Donald Trump — when you look at the unredacted names, these are two different individuals”

Somebody is making a fortune on the war with inside information and it is grotesquely corrupt.

The so-called SAVE America Act is about as un-American as it gets.

Hard drives removed from a federal crime scene between warrants. Six storage units Epstein paid to maintain until his death never raided. Jail surveillance wiped. This isn't a conspiracy theory. It's documented in federal court testimony. The question is who made sure we'd never see it.

I was proud to stand with @sanders.senate.gov & endorse candidates who stood against war, against big money, and for justice. I lost twice before I won, including an anti-Iraq war campaign, and Bernie lost 4 times before he won. In the long run, principles matter.

In South Burlington, Vermont, protesters are being tear-gassed by ICE and local police as they attempt to prevent a kidnapping.

Yes. ICE agents don't get to carve out a First Amendment exception for themselves.

Trump doesn’t have the ability to dictate when the war is over.

Neighbors of Portland, OR ICE facility sue over tear gas, win injunction. "...[when] federal agents... deploy chemical munitions during protests, [it seeps] into their [homes,] causing health problems. Another plaintiff reported she’s been hit by stray rubber bullets..." katu.com/news/local/f...
