Trump wants us to pretend he’s on the ballot, but in fact Putin is. If you vote for the people with R after their name, you’re voting for the Russians.

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”
Scientists have reached a consensus that human behavior is a big driver of climate change—but Americans aren't buying it.

Trump lost his war and is now bargaining from a position of weakness. Any deal to open the strait is going to cost tens of billions of dollars - a strait that was open before Trump and Bibi went in guns blazing.
There is no deal FYI. The Strait will remain closed. This is terrible news but it’s the price of incompetence.

Why did Trump pardon drug trafficker and Honduran president Juan Hernández? According to leaked audio tapes, it was an initial payment in part of a agreement between Trump, Bibi, and others to take down Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum. english.elpais.com/internationa...

EXCLUSIVE: In 2022, a Georgia grand jury investigated Trump’s alleged interference in the 2020 election. It heard from more than 60 witnesses. For years, the full record of what those witnesses said under oath has remained hidden from public view. Until now. www.lawfaremedia.org/projects-ser...

i firmly believe that kennedy wants preventable diseases to rip through american communities since, in his warped mind, those who survive without vaccines will have proven themselves “healthy.”
Kennedy canceled $500 million in mRNA research and announced no new mRNA projects will ever be initiated—killing the technology that produced the fastest vaccine rollout in human history.

Dozens of Jan. 6 defendants and others present on Capitol grounds have filed a class action in Florida against DC + Capitol police for their use of force during the riot. Many of those on the list were convicted of felonies (and pardoned by Trump). storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The Constitution is decidedly anti-king. Not only does it prohibit the United States from conferring titles of nobility, but it also prohibits its officers from accepting any “Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”

DOJ / Bondi, grossly incompetent, released a Jack Smith meme evidencing that trump may have committed treason by showing a map so sensitive that only 6 people could have access, for his personal gain. And this is why we need to vote the lot out. #NOKINGS open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Remember when they pressured Boebert to un-sign the discharge petition on the Epstein files? They’re now pressuring her to withdraw her vote on the Bondi subpoena. Looks like this time she’s caving. www.cnn.com/2026/03/19/p...
It's been confirmed that trump tried to convince Boebert to unsign the discharge petition. It's less about the files, and more about the vote that would ensue. Forcing tons of republicans to turn on trump. I've said this a million times. The discharge petition isn't about the files. 1/
