Using an AI-generated image showing a nuclear attack on Tel Aviv, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that a nuclear attack remains a real threat to the country, two days before Israelis head to the polls for a national election. Read more: https://cnn.it/4jIU4uW
Former president Obama reminded U.S. yesterday: “These are not serious people”
Ramaswamy may have pulled his horrible ad featuring Amy Acton's mother, but it doesn’t erase that he publicly punished Acton for the horrible cards she was dealt, which is parents who provided an unsafe, unstable home. His moral compass does not exist and he’s unfit to lead Ohio.
As the former president reminds us: ”These are not serious people” But they are dangerous.
Trump: "Why do we always have to take people from shit house countries? We can't we take people from Norway and Sweden and Denmark? By the way, Denmark gave us Greenland ... what do you take, Venezuela or Greenland? We got them both!"

U.S. citizen Ricardo Gonzalez was brutally detained by ICE in Long Beach while he yelled for help and said his arm was broken. This is a pattern of abuse and violence from ICE. No one is safe and our communities are being terrorized. We need ICE out.

Well let’s check with ChatGPT: “No, the administration does not have the authority to finalize or guarantee the money. The federal government is strictly prohibited from finalizing financial commitments or guarantees for private projects while mandatory reviews are outstanding” Seems about right.
JD Vance: "Because Pete Ricketts has been fighting for your farmers, today I'm proud to announce $1.3 billion in investment in domestic fertilizer manufacturing right here in Nebraska"

When Ukraine destroys Russian data centers, hoards of aggressive right-wing bots disappear & the internet becomes friendlier. So much of politics is driven by the internet & so much of the internet is driven by Russians who want to hurt us. Shouldn’t we do something about that, given that we know it

This might seem like a difference of opinion. It is not. It is among the most impeachable things a President can do. If the President can just choose to violate the budget Congress passes, Congress doesn’t have any power.

Americans need to understand the stakes of the upcoming elections. Too many news orgs rely on “horse race coverage”, “sanewashing”, “false equivalence”, “euphemism” and other inadequacies. Endorse our pro-democracy election coverage guidelines. www.mediaanddemocracyproject.org/2026-electio...

You know, ordinarily I’d say centrally planned economies are a bad idea. But what if — and hear me out, here — what if we switched to a centrally planned system, except there was only only one planner, and he was a corrupt, senile, 80-year-old man who had driven multiple businesses into the ground?

🔥 Here's Whitehouse's entire remarkable speech opposing Blanche: "What's left of this committee when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has DOJ been asked what became of the $50k that the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our R colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, & speak no evil."

Raphael Warnock believes that The Supreme Court “has committed violence against the ways in which ordinary people can have a voice in our system.” The Georgia senator and pastor recently discussed voting rights, JD Vance, an “acid test” on faith and more on “The Interview.”
This $50m in political campaign self-dealing: GA Senate write-in Christina Clement claimed a $50.3M “self-loan.” FEC flagged it as likely inaccurate; she says it’s IP value, not cash. @OpenSecretsDC www.opensecrets.org/news/2026/05...
