Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

25 years ago today, the U.S. launched its war in Afghanistan. Weeks earlier, Barbara Lee was the only member of Congress to vote against the 2001 Authorization of Military Force, warning it would be a blank check for forever wars. History has proven her lonely and courageous vote right.

It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading. He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

Trump's Iran War has sent mortgage rates skyrocketing. His trade wars have increased the cost of construction. His mass deportations have decimated the home-building workforce. And his HUD cuts have devastated affordable housing programs. "Make America Affordable Again."

The vicious and corrupt cycle of monopolization: 1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market. 2) Use their monopoly power to price gouge consumers and shaft workers. 3) Use profits to make political donations. 4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement. 5) Repeat.

The billions of dollars we send to a foreign military to drop bombs on somebody else should have been spent to build schools, housing, and to provide healthcare HERE.

🤔 "Even as Trump seeks to decry Democrats as communists ahead of November’s midterm elections, he is rolling out the red carpet this week for Chinese President Xi Jinping, the leader of the world’s most powerful communist country..." apnews.com/article/trum...

Remember the iron rule of reporting on the Middle East: Nothing justified Oct 7th. Oct 7th justified everything.

To make life easier and more affordable in this country, we must confront and fix what's wrong with our political system.

Watching these men destroy America & then say we need more testosterone is like the Titanic saying we need more iceberg’s. The idiocy of this regime is only surpassed by the douchebrained sheepfuckles voting for it.

So what changed? The Senate passed the Epstein Transparency Act - unanimously. Now, some of those very same senators are lining up to confirm Todd Blanche — the same man who's been leading the Epstein cover-up. We deserve better.

Ossoff: On Wednesday of this last week he said the war was "Done." And then on Thursday another ship was struck. On Friday the president was bombing again. This is what happens when you send your son-in-law, Jared, to cosplay as a diplomat

More Ignorance than Political Ideology….

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

The whole point is that he is unqualified and will make us less safe. This isn’t a glitch. It’s the design. The US is to bend to its rivals abroad and collapse from within. For this he is the right guy! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I’m gonna post this video every day so we NEVER FORGET what Donald Trump did to the USA on Jan 6th

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America: 1. Break up corporate monopolies 2. Continue building union power 3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

Q: You don’t regret that people might’ve lost important income to support their lives? A: No, I think it was more important to reduce the federal deficit. Q: Ok. Did you reduce the federal deficit? A: No, we didn’t.

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Translation of the letter sent from Venezuela to the United Nations. Apologies if the translation is not exact. And to be clear, Venezuela, we Americans do not want war. We are dealing with a mad king. Caracas, December 16, 2025

Nothing says guilty of murder/war crimes like Pete Hegseth refusing to release the video of a second strike on an alleged drug boat in September. If it was lawful and justified, there’d be no reason to keep it hidden.

Donald Trump is a deplorable piece of shit.

I feel like one of the most underrated explanations for what's happening right now in global politics is that almost everyone has lost their minds.

Even now, thinking about himself

President Zelenskyy came to the White House, looking for help from his longstanding ally. He was ambushed, humiliated and berated for not being grateful enough. Prince Bone Saw bin 9/11 came to the White House, for the first time since he ordered the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. He was revered.

You showed dick pics of Hunter Biden on the floor of the US House Of Representatives. Fuck off with your apology tour.

When we say No Kings, we mean Freedom. My speech in Cincinnati for the No Kings rally of October 18th. (video) snyder.substack.com/p/when-we-sa...

NY ✊🏼💙 Keep Fighting the Gestapo! #iceout #newyork

I hear from informed sources that these #NoKings rallies are more than twice as big as last time, making them easily the largest protests in US history. Thanks to everyone and especially organizers.

If a pharmaceutical company could mass produce whatever compassion pills Marjorie Taylor Greene seems to have been taking lately, we could save the world

Imagine being mad you didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize while you’re busy stirring up Civil War in your own country.

Bari Weiss "is a self-described 'Zionist fanatic.' The idea that a 'neutral media organization' is led by someone who has a long history as a pro-Israel ideologue...is really worrying. I think there will be a lot more censorship of Palestinian voices." - me to Piers Morgan about CBS News and Weiss:
