Americans don't know the reasons Iran hates the US. In 1951 Iran's democracy elected Mohammed Mossadegh. The CIA & British intelligence staged a coup, installed a dictator who tortured and killed people. It goes on from there.

It's no secret that Donald Trump views the press and journalists as one of his top enemies, and this resurfaced CNN interview from March 1990 laid the blueprint for his disrespectful and hostile demeanor towards anyone who dares to question him. youtu.be/YcxwlWpT0bY?...

Election deniers. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-voting activists. Big Lie true believers. By the time we hold our next presidential vote, they could be running our elections — including in some key swing states. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

“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.

This. Viktor Orbán’s far-right extremist agenda is a model for MAGA. Trump and Vance are all-in on this election. If Orbán loses it would also be a political and ideological loss for the Trump regime and MAGA.

Saab is turning out to be the ultimate strategic partner to Canada, enabling Canada's independence from the US in many aspects. I think the decision about fighter jet purchases is getting easier for Ottawa every day, because Saab is offering unique advantages to Canada. youtu.be/CutZRrB2hH8?...

A new batch of leaked calls between the Hungarian foreign minister and his Russian counterpart shows Budapest providing the Kremlin with steady intel on European plans to counter Russian aggression against Ukraine.

There’s a difference between reading the news and beating it. On Polymarket, a handful of traders didn’t just anticipate turns in the escalating Iran conflict. They moved ahead of them. New accounts. Narrow bets. Precise timing. Then silence.

I just learned something. According to international law, even making the THREAT of wiping out a civilization is a war crime. Just the threat. Therefore, AGAIN, Trump has already committed a war crime.

The Pope’s response to being threatened by the Pentagon? - Cancelled his July 4th US visit. - Spending our 250th birthday on an island where African migrants wash ashore. - Told Catholics to call their reps and demand an end to the Iran war. The first American pope. He will NOT be bullied by Trump!

Her notable MP activity: - constant criticisms of anything Liberal - pushing conversion therapy, and declaring that a petition with 169 signatures gave her the support of “the majority of churches and faith groups “ in the riding - introducing a bill to declare December as “Christian Heritage Month”

Trump is responsible for a Million American Deaths during Covid. He's a fucking MENACE.

This cease-fire is bound ro fail. Bibi isn't about to take instructions from Trump, and in fact may have contributed significantly in luring Trump into this adventure. And Iran's bargaining chip is Hormuz, and it's not about to lose it. Buckle up. We're not done.

Vance says that the EU shouldn't meddle in Hungarian elections, but it's totally OK if he wades in, and expresses support for Orban. Have I got that right?? 🍁🍁🍁 /so sick of US double-standards.

1: Hello Congress? Article 2 Section 4 of the Constitution “The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.” 👇

Glad to know the US Congress is out on a vacation and is resting from the strong effort they demonstrated.

One of the greatest privileges of being alive right now is the ability to see photographs like this. Truly spectacular.

Oh, but Vance meddling in German elections is totally OK... Aber Vances Einmischung in deutsche Wahlen ist völlig in Ordnung. www.thetimes.com/world/europe...

The war crime tribunals operate under the principle of "command responsibility". But will the International Criminal Court (ICC) have the backbone to label Trump, Hegseth and the 'commanders' as "war criminals"? (assuming the crimes are proven). www.theguardian.com/law/2026/apr...

France has sold off the last of its gold held in the US Federal Reserve and now holds all its gold in Paris. German groups are now pressuring the government to repatriate its own gold.

Poilievre in a cardigan Carney sells nicely in Alberta . Duh

🤣 trump’s a dumbass. And to those in the #UK saying #KingCharles should cancel this trip due to the #Iranwar, agreed! #cdnpoli #Canada #UKmonarchy www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

The over-sized Jerusalem Cross on Hegseth's chest is less of a symbol of Christianity, and more of a yearning for a bogus Manichean struggle between "white" Europeans and "Moozlim" enemies, and a misguided nostalgia for the Crusades. .../2

Scaramucci is worth listening to; he gives an update on what Trump is doing to demolish democracy and government oversight.

We need your help please. Please share. Chaco Culture National Historical Park in New Mexico is a UNESCO World Heritage Site containing over a thousand years of Indigenous history ancient ruins, sacred sites, and cultural landmarks built by the ancestors of today’s Pueblo peoples.

We all know it’s true. Reputable statisticians agree it happened. There are lawsuits in Nevada & New York that continue to assert massive voter fraud. It’s just difficult for the story to get any traction on traitorous Lecacy media...

❗️The rescue and evacuation operation for the second pilot of the F-15E Strike Eagle fighter-bomber shot down on Friday involved hundreds of American special forces soldiers, including operators from the Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG), as well as other

No matter how many executive orders Donald Trump signs targeting mail-in voting, expect them to get shut down by the courts. Like DOGE, tariffs, & his birthright citizenship schemes, they are all unconstitutional… Fuck Donald Trump and his craven desire to be America’s illegitimate dictator!

That the US needs to address immigration, international trade, or Iran is without question. The REAL issue is HOW this incompetent administration is addressing them. And that goes to bottomless ignorance, ideological narrow-mindedness, self-entitlement, ham-fisted solutions and greed. 🍁🍁🍁

Food for thought... Trump, Iran and Propaganda www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

History repeats (for those who can read)

“[M]ilitary sources indicate that George and his ally, Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll, disagreed with Hegseth’s decision to block promotions of four officers — two Black men and two women… George and Driscoll felt that Hegseth was using race and gender to single out these 4 officers…” 4/3/26 … 1/

Velshi: "American troops were in the middle of a rescue mission for a soldier stuck behind enemy lines and Trump was casually musing about taking Iranian oil like someone at brunch ordering fries for the table."

Trump is BIGLY trying to interfere in midterm elections. He’s been quietly installing ELECTION DENIERS in key positions throughout the government, particularly in DHS. The SAVE Act executive order he signed, going after state voter rolls, all of these things play a key role in a much larger agenda.

As a Catholic, it’s an enormous relief to me that Hegseth isn’t one.

Elias Law Group has 88 voting and election cases pending in 43 states and the District of Columbia. We are not done fighting and we are not done winning.
