Why are we at war with Iran? Why can't the White House answer that question? If Iran's nuclear sites were "obliterated" in 2025, why are we considering ground troops to take nuclear sites now in 2026? Why did we bomb a children's school in Iran? WHY IS THE MEDIA NOT ASKING THESE QUESTIONS?

I have to call a spade a spade: This is a massive letdown by Senate Democrats. Allowing millions to go without critical healthcare all based on a promise by the GOP to allow a vote for it in December is laughable at best, complicit at worst. You do not appease fascism - you fight it.

This is the breaking point. If they can throw a United States Senator to the ground like trash just because he demanded answers at a press conference from the Secretary of Homeland Security, what makes you think they won't do it to you? We do not live in a monarchy.

I'm SO tired of Dems and the left always having to placate the right and their bad faith narratives. These are not violent protests. There were a handful of incidents that were swiftly dealt with. Spare us the lectures about being peaceful. They ARE peaceful. Keep the spotlight on the fascism.

George Floyd should not have been killed five years ago by a police officer. I don't care if he broke the law in the past. I don't care if he was addicted to drugs. I don't care about the conspiracy theories. I don't care about MAGA trying to rewrite history. George Floyd should be alive.

According to the Constitution, every single human being in the United States of America has a RIGHT - not just a privilege, a RIGHT - to due process. Every. Single. Person. If the Trump regime can deny that right to one person, what makes you think they won't do it to you?

Kilmar Garcia, who lived in Maryland and was in the U.S. *legally*, was deported by the Trump regime and sent to a notoriously violent prison in El Salvador. This is the whole ball game, folks. If Trump is allowed to deport whoever he wants, regardless of legal status, it's over. We're done.

Rep. Al Green was asked by a reporter if he felt that he followed Leader Jeffries' wishes calling for "decorum." His response: "I was following the wishes of conscious. There are times when it is better to stand alone than not at all." We need more Al Green's.

What we saw in the Oval Office today - the same office that was once occupied by JFK, Truman, and Eisenhower - was an embarrassment to our country and a backstabbing to our allies. Those responsible for allowing this administration back into office will wear shame for decades forward.

I know it doesn't even matter anymore because it's not like they ever face any consequences for literally anything, but the fact that the richest man on the planet will have an office in White House after he radicalized a major US social media platform and basically bought the presidency is... Bad.

This is so unbelievably offensive I truly hope Canadians understand that a significant percentage of Americans are daily embarrassed that this man is an American at all, let alone the president-elect

WE ARE STILL IN THIS. Wipe your tears. This is the difficult business of hope and defying expectation. We do not give up. We run through the tape. Y’all aren’t allowed to throw in the towel until I do. 😉 Big breath. Locked in. Let’s do this.

In fact, I think he should pardon every single person who even *might* come under nonsense investigation by the Trump regime. Fauci, General Milley, every 2020 election worker or judge, etc. Go crazy, Joe. Not like anything even matters anymore. Have fun!

He is going to destroy our economy. This is really, really bad. Kamala Harris was hounded to release her economic plans from day one, but somehow, this complete moron managed to skate by with these "plans" for our economy. And people voted for it. Unbelievable.

This post is unavailable.

"Kamala didn't speak enough on policy!" A) Yes, she did. Most of her speeches were about her policies. She also went in depth about policy in interviews. The media just failed to cover it because it was boring. B) Other than deportations, Trump never talked policy. Give me a break.

Yeah. Maybe if the mainstream media had dared to unabashedly report what an urgent national security risk this man was rather than "both sides" everything to appear "objective" to the right, this wouldn't have happened. But hey, at least the right won't call you biased anymore! Oh, wait...

Anyone, any entity, anywhere in the world can just pay him any amount (for anything he promises in return), and there's no disclosure of the payments, no oversight of any of it by anyone, and of course no potential bribery prosecution (of him) because... immune. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/24/u...

1. GOP make mess. 2. Dems get elected, clean mess. 3. GOP complain that mess not clean fast enough. 4. The public gets mad that mess not clean fast enough. 5. GOP get elected because people are mad about mess not being cleaned fast enough. 6. Repeat. Stop. The. Pattern.

People don't fully appreciate just how good of an administration Joe Biden has had. - Saved the economy that most economists said would fall into recession. -Capped drug prices for seniors. - Passed the largest infrastructure AND climate change bills in history.

- Passed the Chips and Science Act, bringing the manufacturing of semiconductors back to the U.S. - Expanded healthcare for veterans through the Pact Act. - Passed the most significant gun control bill in nearly three decades. - Appointed the first black woman ever to the Supreme Court

Folks surprised that the Morning Joe duo went to visit Trump at Mar-a-Lago to kiss the ring shouldn't be. Don't be fooled. The media adores Donald Trump. They love the drama, dysfunction, and fear that he brings. It's great for clicks and views.
