He bombed Iran for no reason, spent billions in taxpayer money, killed our troops’, shut down the Strait of Hormuz, and now wants credit for reopening what he broke. Now the bill comes due: military costs, shipping and fuel, reconstruction money, and whatever else. All for an Epstein distraction.

It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby—a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist—to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Benjamin Netanyahu is an international fugitive. He is charged with the war crimes of starvation as a method of warfare and of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts.

If some Klansman firebombs a black church that happens to be empty you're really going to say that isn't terrorism?

The misogynistic smearing of a former First Lady at a White House event sanctioned by a President … is a stain that will not be removable

SUNSET PLANET SKY SHOW: Last week, Venus and Jupiter had a close encounter in the sunset sky. This week, Mercury joins the show.

The corrupt president held a grotesque event at the White House last night he profited off of. And one of the participants screamed into a microphone that Mrs. Obama is a man. If the president dies this afternoon. It is not soon enough.

Iran won the war and didn’t slaughter a bunch of American schoolchildren to do it America is a disgrace on every level

Aaaaaaand there it is…

Iran should demand that Israel lose its nuclear weapons and long-range missile capability as a condition for peace. Israel is, obviously, the most dangerous nation in the Middle East.

100% of all the planet's trillionaires are in the Epstein files. FACTS.

Using data from NASA’s Chandra and XMM-Newton, astronomers have discovered a possible supernova remnant buried 26,000 light-years away. If confirmed, it would be one of the closest remnants ever found to the supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way! 🌌 1/4

The White House Epstein Files cover up goes all the way to VP JD Vance, Susie Wiles, and Kash Patel. It’s time to bring these people in front of our committee. We won’t stop until we get justice for survivors.

Don’t be fooled… Israel is repeating the atrocities they committed in Gaza in Lebanon. Their lust to dominate the entire area and totally eliminate anyone who stands in their way are the most severe human rights violations since their own people were subjected to a genocide. LEBANON - PT 1

There has never been a Congress that has so failed the American People as this one.

It literally takes just 10 minutes of watching Fox News to understand why Trump supporters live in a completely different reality than the rest of the world
