Only 8 percent of Americans say using contraception is morally wrong. But Trump needs to keep his MAGA supporters, so one of the nation’s oldest culture war battles is raging once again.

It is not antisemitic to criticize Isreal. Claiming so is just a way to silence voices who want to object to acts like annihilation of Gaza. =

Rape is never about sex - always about power. In my lifetime, I've seen an historically powerful institution that once made kings and queens the rulers of state, brought to its knees because of a sex scandal where children were used as sex objects.

For reasons he said were “inexplicable,” Howard Lutnick acknowledged visiting Jeffrey Epstein’s island seven years after he claimed to have severed his relationship with the convicted sex offender. There is a LOT more that they aren't telling us.

Just think. All this money spent on wars, the epstein ballroom, tax cuts for the rich, golf trips, and grifting. What if it were spent on the US people? What a wonderful world.

The federal gas tax generates about $30bl to $36 billion annually in revenue, mostly to fund the Highway Trust Fund. Meanwhile, the war's total economic impact on the U.S. economy could potentially reach$630 billion to $1 trillion.

This man most likely is not guilty, for the reason that it is extremely unlikely that he sprinted so far without the Secret Service apprehending him immediately and moving the Cabinet to secure areas, separate from each other. While the nation is at war.

Secretary Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon is in disarray. Adherence to the rule of law is now, apparently, a ground for termination.

Priorities dontcha know

Dr. Oz is under-qualified to speak about any woman's life choices.

Hey Doctor Oz, how many Americans are underpaid, underhoused, and underinsured?

The orange taco slept through another press conference, the gold phone was the scam we all knew it was and now it's official no one is getting one or their money back, and Dr. Oz said that Americans are "under babied" in terms of having children. This is the stupidest apocalypse ever.

If wealthy homeowners build too near the coastline, they get federal aid to build seawalls and such. Homeowners on land too thick for proper septic? D.E.I, thus crickets.

Gen John Kelly wrote that Trump did not understand the Constitution and had “nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law.”, but the GOP enabled him anyway. Kelly did not see corruption, also, as a draw.

The Trump administration expects the people who have put their lives on the line for America to cede one of their basic rights, or forfeit the retirement pay and benefits they have earned over decades of service. Soon nobody will be able to speak freely.

These are public spaces and public buildings. We own them. There is a process for deciding when and how to change their appearances, and to date i have not heard mush about that process. If most people want a blue. or green surface, then so be it.

Trump says he didn't even finish reading Tehran’s latest proposal before rejecting it, which implies to me, at least, he is uninterested in a ceasefire or even the end to war. Otherwise, why not try true negotiation techniques and begin with common ground?

A) I do not believe we gave up on "America First." b) I do not believe #TheSelectandPowerfulFew will allow the CDC to take steps to public health if it threatens commerce. We are on our own, people. Start sewing your own masks again.

As the president’s popularity withers, the party has no will to stage an intervention against him. They should re-frame their self-talk. It is not "weak" to change your mind: It means you are responding to new data. /11/republicans-trump-popularity?CMP=share_btn_url

Male and female Palestinians describe brutal sexual abuse at the hands of Israel’s prison guards, soldiers, settlers and interrogators. Seems we have forgotten all about this land.

If only we had a plan and strategy for when, where, and why we will start or support wars, and why we will start/support wars in specific regions. Next time, let's elect a PTOUS who is not impulsive and holds the world hostage to his latest whim.

White supremacy has always been used to usher in massive economic inequality. Please remember this when you vote for candidates and policies that favor #TheSelectandPowerfulFew.

The average refund this tax season was $3,521, about $350 more than last year, according to IRS data as of March 27. Apparently, that "no tax on tips" cap only helped those trying to sell the Big ugly Bill.

Trump's new tax law extends tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations while cutting $187 billion from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP,) leaving our most vulnerable hungry. Hunger causes a host of other problems that weaken a nation.

The new Tax law boosts the wealthy and leaves behind some workers it promised to help. This is short-sighted on the part of #TheSelectandPowerfulFew. Income inequity does not make us great.

Should Nike keep their huge tariff refunds or return the money to the consumers who actually paid them? A new lawsuit may determine this answer to this question for Nike and others.

A lawsuit filed against Nike is seeking to block the apparel giant from pocketing “significant" tariff refunds and force Nike to return the money “to the consumers who actually paid them."

The only thing worse than hospital food is hospital food picked by D.C. bureaucrats, LOL.

This, my friends, is why we do not allow one party rule in our towns and communities. Concentrated power breeds more power for #TheSelectandPowerfulFew. The average person loses when he or she votes against their own best interests.

Russian troops have been fighting ​in Ukraine since they invaded that nation over four years ago. That is longer than Soviet forces fought in World War Two. Now Putin seems willing to scale back.

Humm. Perhaps we should have acted with intention, not impulsiveness. (Gift article)

keir starmer says he won't resign bcos he doesn't want to 'plunge the country in to chaos'. keir starmer, mr sensisble, is ironically the source of the uk's chaos. he has upended our politics by turning our primary centre-left party in to a far right party that appeals to absolutely nobody.

"The West is currently in the grip of a perfect storm: a lingering economic recession, a global refugee crisis, declining faith in multiculturalism, the rise of populist anti-immigration parties." • Frank Mols @fmols.bsky.social, Jolanda Jetten @jolanda-jetten.bsky.social, #UniversityofQueensland

Population control is coming to the USA, once the land of the free.

In two months of war, the Pentagon has spent down more than its annual budget for munitions. And the tab is still open.

What happens if the USA runs out of ammunition and nobody has the courage to tell the commander in chief?

Many of humanity’s most important crops — including wheat, potatoes, beans — contain fewer vitamins and minerals than they did a generation ago. The invisible culprit behind this damaging phenomenon? Carbon dioxide pollution.

People are allowed to question the President of the United States. It is in the Constitution. (Gift article)

I know I certainly have a lot of questions to ask him. How about you?

The sooner we stop burning fossil fuels, the better it is for everyone.

The sooner we stop burning fossil fuels, the better it is for everyone.

Investors are furious. The value of its digital tokens is tanking. And no one seems to know what exactly is going on with its finances. This is what happens when you delude yourself by investing with a crime - er,,, Trump - enterprise,

Just keep in mind how much Trump's fossil fuel buddies are making PER HOUR on this war and it ought to help us maintain perspective.

If the average voter does not seem to mind that we spend millions a day to fund Trump's war that helps his buddies earn millions per hour, I am not sure how popular these public hearings will be over banning products made via forced labor.

Most lawmakers think the President's job is to run the nation, not build ballrooms. Only one Democrat so far has come out in favor of passing legislation to continue constructing Trump's ballroom, even after Saturday night's security breach.

“This Is the cruelest and most arrogant group of people who have ever ascended to high office in the United States,” says Sen. Jon Ossoff, “Their cruelty and arrogance are matched only by their incompetence.” None of which justifies political violence.

The big secret that nobody says much about is that SNAP benefits are configured on 1965 grocery costs. Everybody complains about giving food assistance to people but the amount we give is criminally sparce.

Did I mention that we discovered the reason for this war that is raising your cost of living? The best part for Big Oil? They did not have to spend a penny to gain this obscene amount of money. They just needed to convince a weak leader to spend ours.
