I missed this. U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta ruled that tRump’s J6 speech was not protected under the 1st Amendment and is not covered by official-acts immunity. He cost the American people $2.7 billion in damages by sending his ugly mob to the Capitol. #ProudBlue #J6 #FucktRump

The Generals are gone. The AG is gone. We started a war. Gas is up. Healthcare is up. Prescriptions are up. The rich are richer. The poor are poorer. Protesters have been killed. Service members have been killed. The law is a suggestion. The constitution is a memory. We. Are. Not. Okay.

The second attack on the 136-metre structure took place while rescue forces were at the scene helping at least 95 injured people, Iranian state media claimed. Isn’t bombing civilian targets like Hospitals and Bridges a War Crime? Or do we just have no rules anymore?

Raskin: "It doesn't give me a lot of comfort that Todd Blanche is now the acting AG. This is the guy who transferred Ghislaine Maxwell from the higher security prison to the low security prison camp in Texas."

NATO's possible break-up, sanctions eased on Iran, sanctions eased on Russia as oil prices rocket, Iranian chokehold on 20% of the world's oil, energy crisis in Europe, aid for Ukraine at risk. No-one is having a better 2026 than Vladimir Putin. All facilitated by his White House agent.

Yes, the current SCOTUS is out of control. But this video explains why we shouldn't panic. I don't know how much of this is possible, and there are a lot of "ifs", but just knowing there ARE remedies is extremely encouraging.

Tr*mp is named in the Epstein files over 1 million times. The FBI & members of Congress KNOW he raped children. So, those with the power to do something about it are either being threatened not to or theyre complicit. Either way, the fact that he’s not being held accountable is beyond unacceptable.

Just to recap: Russia is currently helping Iranian forces try to kill US troops. In response, Trump is… lifting sanctions on Russia and threatening to pull out of NATO, which are the #1 and #2 items on Putin’s wishlist

A single vote for Trump in the birthright citizenship case would be as bad as anything the Court has done since Bush v. Gore. This issue has been settled for more than a century. It is the jurisprudential equivalent of asking what 2+2 is. Any answer other than 4, something is deeply, deeply wrong.

The man who just voted by mail-in ballot in Florida wants to suppress the votes of one-third of US voters. They know they can’t pass the SAVE Act. This is what panic looks like. #TrumpVotedByMail
