It’s clear that the primary interest of the US in “peace negotiations” is to create opportunities for Trump, Witkoff, their family members, business partners and cronies to make billions from business deals with Russia, and Ukraine is just the annoying nuisance in the way.

These people really are the most stupid individuals on earth.

In 2028 I will vote for whoever will send Stephen Miller to The Hague.

Lest you think Greene has changed her ways, here she is refusing to denounce Nick Fuentes, suggesting Bash have him on her show, and lying about having known him before she appeared at his conference.

The “peace president” is starting a war.

"Be clear: I blame the protectors of the predators just as much as the rapists themselves because without them, this cycle might’ve ended long ago with sexual abusers, especially those ensconced in politics and media, rooted out," MFP Founding Editor Donna Ladd wrote in August. "Maybe."

you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric

The Senate Dems are finished... no one supports you anymore.

I don’t think you understand no job, no healthcare and a faltering economy. We worked our asses off for the last election and the one prior. When do ALL OF YOU lay it on the line? You all have a paycheck and healthcare! We are out here fighting ice too!!! WHERE IS THE SENATE??!!…I’ll wait….

Truly amazing that any time the democrats have to bite the bullet and do something that ruins countless lives, there's always *just* enough votes to get it done, but if there is a vote on something that would actually improve people's lives, they are always one vote short. Crazy how that happens.

....and still Norwegians go "...but they just made a new car....".

Once again, your regular reminder that the single greatest threat to transatlantic & European security is neither 🇷🇺 nor 🇨🇳 nor any other external threat, but rather the authoritarian calls coming from inside the house.

Good grief. This administration is so soft on crime.

So many people were detained extrajudicially, were tortured, or died because of Dick Cheney. You can't get to the danger we're in now without everything he did. The weapons he helped forge are ones we need to take away from U.S. presidents forever.

Today in life under competitive authoritarianism

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Just donated to my local food bank. The GOP, is not going to do anything for the American people.

Truck Stop Kristi ?

This is how you do wash trading. All these companies are investing in each other paying each other bits of the same trillion dollars in order to make it look like they’re so close to AGI so investors will keep giving them money to lose. This is also known as a Junkie’s promise.

Saints decided it was time to go to their veteran quarterback and put in Shough. Sometimes you need that experience.

Andy Ngo and other far right extremists have been targeting Avalos since at least as early as July and trying to paint her as violent and a "member of Antifa." On court record, Ngo has admitted that his social media posts can lead to violence.

ahhh more far right violence

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Context for non-Chicagoans: The median list price for homes in Lincoln Park is $758,133 according to Zillow. It's also 80% white. When they go after places with that much privilege, know that no one is safe. And the vulnerable are even more so.

"Americans are racist, especially towards Muslims" Wow this came out of nowhere.

Pete Hegseth is the kind of guy you used to send on a Crusade so he’d stop bothering you and die from incompetence

Meritocracy myths go hand in hand with Republican politics, White Christian Nationalism, and racism more generally. So, it won't surprise me if Republicans hold their noses and pay more for their ACA plans, to maintain their sense of superiority (and power) over others more vulnerable than them. 5/

Colombia: “US government officials have committed a murder and violated our sovereignty in territorial waters” “Fisherman Alejandro Carranza had no ties to the drug trade and his daily activity was fishing.” “The Colombian boat was adrift and had its distress signal up due to an engine failure.”

Petro objected to the US bombing a Columbian fishing vessel that had the emergency beacon on because they were broken down, that we subsequently bombed. One Columbian fisherman survived the attack. This is the official US response to Petro's comments.

This doesn’t even include the ones who had pending case but he had their charges dropped.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump says he has commuted sentence of former US Rep. George Santos in federal fraud case.

Federal immigration agents have detained an alarming number of U.S. citizens, demonstrating their widespread failure to respect basic protections against wrongful seizures. “Any one of us could be next,” said Cody Wofsy, Deputy Director of our Immigrants' Rights Project.
