Trump and Musk are doing everything they can to try and force Ukraine to surrender to Putin while Musk spends over $300 million to try and buy the midterm elections to maintain total power. The American government under Republicans are on the side of evil. Vote them out.

France is not alone in facing a debt crisis. Since Trump first took office, in 2017, the U.S. national debt has doubled, from $20 trillion to $40 trillion. Interest payments on debt now consume 20% of our annual federal budget. Trump has no plan. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/08/b...

MAGA is accusing Sarah Huckabee Sanders of anti-white racism, because in her campaign ad portraying welfare recipients as lazy idlers the role of Welfare Queen is played by a white man. White Americans make up 40% of welfare recipients, the largest group by race. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/29/u...

Alito and Thomas are so fully owned. Kavanaugh’s short concurrence too, though. The Postal Service’s “statutory authority” can’t extend to regulating federal elections, which the Constitution itself so clearly grants to the States and Congress.

Of course Alito and Thomas dissent like the whiny pains in the ass they are.

Since 1981, Democratic presidents have overseen the creation of 3 times as many private-sector jobs as their Republican counterparts. Excluding Reagan, the net private-sector job growth of the past 3 GOP presidents is zero.

The president doesn’t have some mysterious ability to do whatever he wants Republicans at every level choose not to stop him, even though they could Senate, House, appointees, local officials, candidates — all lined up, smiling for the camera, fully complicit

Stupid. Hard to stand against a vindictive moron to whom the Trump Court has given such expansive power and deference. But why should one petulant and erratic person be able to rename international bodies of water? www.nytimes.com/2026/08/30/w...

Goods prices were flat or falling when Trump entered office. Then came his "Liberation Day" tariffs, which have driven the spike in goods and overall inflation.

Trump isn't fighting to lower costs for working families. He's trading stocks and selling early access to his Truth Social posts instead. The American people can see through his corruption.

Trump is bankrupting our country. “Rates on newly issued 30-year U.S. bonds…recently hit 5.3 percent, up from 1.7 percent in 2021. That means more federal revenue goes to service the debt — nearly 20 percent — leaving less available for, say, defense or health care.” www.nytimes.com/2026/08/20/o...
