Will someone tell the moron in the WH that Ontario is a native word meaning beautiful lake. He is insulting everyone on the continent but most directly the Wendat (who are both Canadian and US) Everyday it is more shameful to belong to the USA

"How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass...Folks were holding on to something—that there's some good in this world and it's worth fighting for." -Sam, Lord of the Rings

There is a need to question self service more. Companies make you responsible for managing your records, why don't we object or ask what benefit this gives us. Where do the cost savings go? Not to the consumer so we are forced to volunteer hours to their bottom line. We accept, we should say no.

Maher is wrong again. Academic studies,rating firms place PBS/NPR toward the center: 2020 Science Advances study of reporters found “no evidence of liberal media bias”; Ad Fontes Media rates PBS as neutral/balanced and highly reliable;Media Bias/Fact Check place NPR/PBS in a left-center category.

News flash: objecting, even disdaining Netanyahu and his government is not anti-jewish. It is a reasonable position. Israel is not a struggling nation, it is a world player and they have played very badly. I'm sick of the US supporting tyrants, at home, in Saudi, in Turkey and yes in Israel

You can honor the memory of the Declaration of Independence but in no way is this an anniversary - the country died. Maybe we can revive the ideal and remake a country but at this moment we live in a corrupt oligarchy not a democracy. Power is in the hands of tyrants, not even intelligent tyrants.

@durbin.senate.gov I can not believe you are doing this! Nothing is "secured". Thune and Johnson can not be trusted they will take the win and laugh, nothing will be done to restore healthcare affordability and you know it. I am so very disappointed in my Senator I have trusted for so long.

“Military occupation doesn’t make our city safer. Resources and investment makes our city safer.” thank you Bri and all the other protestors who took the time to speak with me last night in Chicago.

Trump wants to hold the government hostage until Democrats agree to raise health care costs for millions of Americans and give him more unchecked power. But health care is a human right. And in America, we have no kings.

He is, was, always has been a blithering idiot. Could never construct a sentence, never made a point (he simply is not capable of thought let alone finishing one). So DO NOT say blame "losing his faculties". Trump is an idiot! Old or older just an idiot! if you didn't see it you weren't listening.

Two things both true: The loved ones of Venezuelans are celebrating that they are no longer in CECOT; some are celebrating their return home. And. It is a violation of international law to cause someone to be returned where they’ll be persecuted. Most of them never got a chance to make that case.

Talarico speaking on Rogan: I'm a Christian, and I think there is no more dangerous form of government than theocracy—because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they’re on a mission from God.

Ah yes, I remember all those boisterous 2024 campaign events where Trump and all the Trump Republicans rallied crowds and voters with their inspiring pledges to destroy storm tracking and weather forecasting in America! USA! USA! www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2025...

washingtonpost.comPentagon will no longer share satellite data that tracks hurricanes overnightScientists were initially given less than a week to prepare for the loss of microwave observations that are key in detecting rapid intensification of storms.

Who are these ICE employees? Can they possible be immune to the cruelty they are inflicting? What kind of training makes someone feel justified in putting on a mask and terrorizing neighborhoods.

The media made a HUGE deal out of "basket of deplorables" and "cling to their guns or religion." But, of course, it will totally ignore Trump saying he hates Democrats: "I hate them. I believe they hate their country."

in addition to his "shylocks" comment, i can't imagine the media backlash if Biden said anything like from this screenshot - that he "hates Republicans" - and i'm also tired of having this "IMAGINE IF BIDEN!" thought experiment but it's just a constant reminder of the double standards

I didn't celebrate 4th of July this year. I can't celebrate a country that kidnaps and disappears US citizens, forces women to give birth against their will, and builds a concentration camp in the Everglades. #ProudBlue #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #AlligatorAuschwitz Fourth of July

"A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people." —The Declaration of Independence

Who cares about the # of jobs when the poor just get poorer: Wages rose slightly, but the increase in worker pay over last year slowed a tick to 3.7% the smallest increase in a year. Smaller wage increases point to a weakening labor market employers don’t pay as much,workers have less leverage.

Trump=a race to the bottom Hidden in his bill: Limit the power of federal courts. Weakening judicial authority. Work requirements for SNAP: leading to families losing food benefits. Expanding immigration enforcement cruelty. Encouraging private-school vouchers Rolling back clean energy initiatives

Everything I see from Brad Lander makes me respect him more and more.

Joshua J. Friedman@joshuajfriedman.com

Lander: "It's just gross, racist bigotry. Meanwhile he's running an optimistic, upbeat campaign for a NY where everybody belongs, and I feel proud as the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in NYC to be supporting somebody who would be the first Muslim mayor—what could be more NYC than that?"
