The same US president who treats our friend Canada as an enemy is trying to give Alaska to Russia, a country whose absolutely overt foreign policy is to destroy us. This superpower suicide has to be stopped. www.ft.com/content/e9cf...

MINNESOTA: “I don’t think about myself. The youth are the most innocent. Anything you can do to save them is worth it.” ♥️ Endless stories attack the MN Somali-American community— but Ebro Ahmed🦸🏽‍♂️saves a bus 🚌 full of kids and stories mostly leave out that he’s Somali? 🤔

This is far worse than JD Vance lying about immigrants eating cats and dogs. He wants Republicans to ignore that Amy Acton was allegedly raped by her mother’s husband *when she was between the ages of 9-12* so they can support what the GOP “believes in” You know-like grabbing women by the p*ssy

JD Vance: "Now the media and the Democrats in the state of Ohio are obsessed because Vivek Ramaswamy had the audacity to run a TV commercial which calls it out like it is and call Amy Acton a liar"

Red sprites are giant electrical flashes that burst 50 to 90 km up, far above thunderstorm clouds, and last only milliseconds. Nicolas Escurat caught them on video.

I've seen a lot of disgusting political commercials, and I am almost numb to the lies and gross misrepresentations at this point, but the Vivek Ramaswamy commercial with Amy Acton's mother is the worst thing I've ever seen.

Some supermarkets in Thailand use banana leaves to wrap fresh food, replacing disposable plastics. This biodegradable alternative makes use of agricultural byproducts and reduces the environmental impact of conventional packaging.

You know, Elon, if you just paid your taxes, we could give those kids food and healthcare, things far more valuable than stock in a government-welfare-dependent company that is bound to go bankrupt eventually.

This deserves a murder charge. I don't expect it to happen, but denying someone medicine they need to stay alive is murder.

Josh Hawley staffer and political operative Tommy: You are supposedly a Christian. Have you disavowed Christian domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh, The Aryan Nation, the KKK, Eric Robert Rudolph, and Dylann Roof, etc., etc., etc.? If not, what are YOUR allegiances?

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Asking Marsha Blackburn how she’d stop rural hospital closures is like asking a lifeguard who watched 18 people go under for swimming tips. On her watch, 18 rural Tennessee hospitals closed or stopped inpatient care and now we lead the nation per capita in closures.

Trump waiving sanctions against Russia is the most predictable thing ever. The silence of some GOP elected officials is likewise the most predictable thing. Throw the trash out in November. This isn’t funny anymore
