This demented MF is preparing to startup up the Iran War again, a war that has already been the fastest and biggest strategic military defeat in US history ... and apparently no one can (or will) stop him. The next result - should the MF proceed - will be yet another US loss
The deplorable sewer of MAGA has no bottom. But what would anyone expect from a cult led by a convicted felon, rapist and lifelong grifter? Big Picture: 77 million US citizens voted for this criminal. Fixing that will be very difficult.
We either throttle Musk and every other fucking billionaire, or we lose American democracy and freedom
Why is this decision solely up to a dementia addled madman who adores Vladimir Putin? Proposed way forward: All members of the Joint Chiefs, plus Sec Def, plus 3 star and above flag officers must be held criminally liable for starting any new wars without Congressional approval
The elephant in the room remains: the EU is just as addicted to cheap oil,and gas as the US (and much of the rest of the world). Until that addiction is faced and fundamental changes can be made to economies and societies based on solar, wind and battery tech, we will see continuing strife and wars
Hegseth, RFK, and Blanche all must be impeached and removed, next year
Donald Trump is practically cheering for Vladimir Putin every single day. I’m so sorry, world, that a very defective US political system has empowered this malignant narcissistic grifter with advancing dementia.
⚡️Kyiv’s power ring under attack: why the capital faces a winter of blackouts Russia is targeting power plants and substations supplying the capital. Further strikes and severe frosts could mean blackouts lasting up to 20 hours a day. What should residents prepare for? Read the full story👇
Hopefully Blanche faces a disbarment hearing for his atrocious behavior
Trump is turning the United States into a vassal state of Putin's Russia. MAGA just doesn't give a fuck and would be happy if Trump succeeded in making the US a white male dominant police state
If/when this bubble pops, it’s going to be a very loud boom
No matter what happens on Election Day, Trump will continue his efforts to build a US police state
The Trump regime has implemented a massive reverse Robin Hood scheme: robbing the poor and giving to the wealthy

Why we really need an Amendment revoking presidential pardon power
Trump’s ‘Smart Wall’ of A.I. Cameras Is Watching the Border, and More Than a Million People A fascist regime’s American high tech version of the Berlin Wall.
5 Takeaways From Our Investigation of Trump’s Waivers for Polluters Put a criminal in the White House and it’s inevitable that he will take bribes to let polluters poison the air and water
The image below shows the two biggest turds in the foul sewer of moral rot that the Republican Party has become
Todd Blanche needs to be high on the IMPEACHMENT list of corrupt, incompetent senior Trump officials.
If Dems ever gain power again, they MUST make sure the DoJ can never again become the President's de facto law firm. Democracy is hanging by a thread now and Trump is trying desperately to cut that thread.
Billionaires are a clear threat to democracy and open responsive government. We need - but will NOT get - high estate taxes on the top 1% and much more progressive income taxes. No US citizen should ever need more than $100M in wealth.
Even if new Dem House impeaches Trump, MAGA Senators still believe that Trump must be protected at all costs, so no matter what his crimes, Trump will be kept in office. That said, I still support impeaching the Putin poodle, grifter, rapist, moron.
Trump's personal law firm (formerly the US Dept of Justice) fires a first shot over the bow of the midterms.
The longer Trump remains in power, the more damage he will do to the US and democracies everywhere. But the MAGA Congresspeople want to keep this convicted felon, lifelong grifter, and dementia patient in the White House forever
This is just the beginning of the Trump Regime's refusal to accept an election outcome where they are not the winners
The Trump plan to steal the midterms starts in Alaska
The Meaning of the Republican War Over Ramaswamy’s Vile Ad There is no gutter so deep and no sewer so foul that the Trump MAGA Party will avoid treading in it
It is possible to stop using Google search and other Google services. The days of “Don’t be evil” are long gone.
@climatecasino.net @climatecassia1.bsky.social Addiction to cheap fossil fuels led to this.
Only safe place for Trump: a locked psych ward
I bet his lawyers make him drop the suit because Trump testifying under oath guarantees that he will commit perjury
@rbreich.bsky.social Americans may hate billionaires, but Americans voted for Presidents who greatly throttled income and estate taxes on the rich, allowing them to become obscenely wealthy. Reagan, Bush, Trump all passed bills that greatly helped the wealthy. SCOTUS made political bribery legal
Starlink has become far too important to US national security and foreign policy to leave it in the hands of Elon Musk.
Reliably Red Iowa in Play as Economic Woes Mount Are red states finally figuring out that Trump doesn’t give a fuck about them?
Losing Ground in the Climate Fight Hell on earth is being advanced by nations addicted to cheap fossil fuels
World tourists staying away from a fascist Trumpmerica
Todd Blanche sends clear message to Trump and MAGA voters: Don't worry, guys. The DoJ is on your side and will do "whatever is necessary" to keep Congress in MAGA control.
Halley's comet will be back before California gets high speed rail
These people need to be the first ones up against the wall after the revolution ;)
U.S. and Israel Draw Up Plans for Renewed Strikes on Iran After Elections Trump has lost this war once already and he is preparing to lose it again.
Putin Nears a Prize: Restoring Ties With the U.S. While Giving Up Nothing The world’s 3 biggest war criminals: Putin, Trump, Netanyahu. 1/3 of Americans still adore Trump
Addiction to cheap fossil fuels leads to fascism and war. Even when Trump is finally gone, the addiction will remain. We are making NO plans for that. Americans act like we have a god given right to endless supplies of cheap oil and gas and can burn it forever and face no consequences.
@climatecassia1.bsky.social @climatecasino.net @cassia14.bsky.social Almost every modern nation is hopelessly addicted to cheap fossil fuels and willing to fight for access, so we are unlikely to stop burning the stuff
The US is now complicit in Russia’s war crimes in Ukraine and Israel’s torture and murder in Gaza. One third of American still adore Trump. How did it come to this?
Trump has made the US complicit in Russia's war crimes. The MAGA Congress couldn't care less. There will be blowback, there will be consequences
