This is the proof! He portrays Russia as wanting peace while they kill Ukrainians daily! Every patriot, every veteran should be screaming! Trump is working for Putin, not for us! Wake up, America!
If Trump were working directly for Putin this whole time, people ask, taking orders to destroy US democracy and the Western alliance, would anything look different? Yes. Trump would be more subtle about it.

We’re already helping to fund the Russian war effort and we’ve basically ended all other aid to Ukraine. Why the fuck should the Ukrainians care about our threats anymore.
US warned the Ukrainians that Washington might cut off intelligence sharing with Kyiv if it will continue strikes on Russian refineries. The Americans also informed their Ukrainian counterparts that the US was set to lift sanctions on Russian diesel and that Moscow intended to lift its export ban.

🚨BREAKING: ICE collected tens of millions of voter records, explored undercover investigations against voter registration groups and considered feeding election data into a system used to locate people for deportation as part of an effort to find voter fraud. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This is kleptocracy. Russian oil assets nationalized, under sanctions, then handed at super low price to Trump donors and family? Trump/Witkoff investment co, Arab investors, Kushner/Ivanka's real estate partner. This one deal beats all previous administrations' corruption combined. Vote them out.

Shame on the Roberts Court for overturning Roe v Wade. We are not going back. We are voting them out.
John Roberts' friend and defender is quoted in the piece, saying they shouldn't be shaming Roberts for the wreckage and ruin he's brought to this country because of "civility." The bullies always cry "civility" when the victims push back in the slightest.

An entire massive industry that has the potential to cause tremendous damage and destruction by their own admission completely unregulated because they have Trump and the Republican Party in their pocket. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Rick Scott on AI: "Congress can't regulate this. We can't get election security passed or pass a budget, so we're not gonna be the ones to do it. It's gonna have to be done through the administration with talking to these AI companies."

New in PN: Trump loves Xi because he wants to be him "Trump throws tantrums and damaging trade wars at utterly imaginary sleights from close allies like Canada. Yet he falls to his orange belly to abase himself before a country that is directly endangering US troops. What is he thinking?"

This should be next to the definition of gaslighting as an example. This kind of "control" that "you want" is at the core of AI, and it is all that is wrong with it.
BLANCHE: AI has a lot of benefits. The fact that AI is able to understand what you want, where you want to shop -- you don't know it, but you actually benefit from that CAMPOS DUFFY: I don't want that! BLANCHE: I know you think you don't, but it's not all bad CD: I don't want my govt spying on me
So we fired a third of the CDC and wonder why we’re not ready for the next pandemic? I love this country too much to stay quiet while they wreck it.
So fuc*ing infuriating and sad. The CDC used to be the crown jewel of the world's scientific firmament. Other countries came to us for help fighting deadly diseases. Its disease detectives learned what caused illness and helped change practices to prevent them. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/26/h...

Amazing detail in this @wsj article about Kimberly Guilfoyle, US ambassador to Greece: she told a Greek minister, in a conversation about the collapse of the Romanian government,“We can do that to any country we want. We can do that here." www.wsj.com/articles/kim...
So much for election integrity. Turns out the only fraud was the guy who locked up the ballots. Grateful California stood up for our democracy.

Just so pathetic. One after the other, Trump nominated people to the most important positions solely because they’re sycophantic cultists who refuse to even say he is wrong about something that impacts public health even when they know he is. This is a nightmare for America. bsky.app/profile/atru...
OMG -- under questioning from Hassan, Trump's FDA nominee Heidi Overton refuses to acknowledge that Trump can ever be wrong about anything even after she's confronted with a specific example of something Trump is clearly wrong about
As an American woman who pays her taxes He lies to get into the White House, then lies to those who donated to his charity. And yes, he cheats at golf too. Once a cheater, always a cheater.
"Trump cheats in every aspect of his life. He cheated on his taxes & wives. He cheated his way out of military service & into the WH. He cheated contractors & donors who made contributions to his now-banned charity. And he cheats at the sport that distinctly relies upon personal integrity: golf."

This is absolutely right, but the key is that Republicans would be the ones to force the issue. Many Democrats just refuse to take the open shot at Musk. He's a ripe, rich target, and an obvious way to dramatize key issues and mobilize key voters, but some of them are still sitting on their hands.

BREAKING: We have updated the Court with the latest developments in Trump's apparent moves to demolish the Kennedy Center  The EXISTING INJUNCTION prevents demolition The Court has ordered the government to say what the hell it is doing by 10 AM @repbeatty.bsky.social, DDA & WLG will fight this!
Two years into Trump's second term and it's still Biden's fault? Mortgages near 7%, prices up that's YOUR economy now. Own it.
The answer is never. And maybe at some point an interviewer can also point out the absolute disaster that Biden inherited in Jan 2021 from Trump, which everyone seems to have forgotten. bsky.app/profile/atru...

New in PN: JD Vance will never escape the albatross of the Iran War "Have you ever seen a video of a car that got booted, and the driver decides to just give it a shot anyway? Inevitably, the boot tears up their car as they lumber down the road. That’s what Iran is going to do to his campaign."

My version of polarization? One side wanted accountability for real violence against women and by police. The other side stormed the Capitol. Don't both-sides this.
@shannimcg.bsky.social had this great insight that the "Woke 1.0" discourse is a product of the "polarization" meta-narrative. Essentially, since we had radical, crazy, dangerous, ideas/movements from the right (MAGA, Jan 6, anti-CRT/DEI), there must have been equivalents on the left. They weren't.

Finally a Republican with a spine. As an American woman, I'm tired of seeing my party I mean the GOP too scared to tell the truth.
🇺🇸🇺🇦❗️Rep. Don Bacon: Trump should be doing a lot more, and he has failed in this area with Ukraine. We’re going to take some heat for this, and I think rightfully so, because he has not stood on the right side and too many Republicans have been too fearful to push back and speak truth to power.

I'm a patriot and I'm furious. He starts a failed war, claims he destroyed Iran's army, then Iran hits Saudi pipeline and BBC shows the damage from space. This is a big deal and he lied to us. Now we pay.
If you think gas prices are high because of Trump's failed war, wait until next week! Iranian drones bombed the massive Saudi oil pipeline shutting down oil flow to ports. This is huge. Trump told he us he DESTROYED Iran's military. He of course lied. Now we pay for it! www.bbc.com/news/article...

The official GOP position on the Iran War: it doesn't really exist because it's so far away... bsky.app/profile/atru...
Republican Rep. Ashley Hinson, running for Senate in Iowa, claims the Iran war is "thousands of miles away. It is out of sight, out of mind for so many Americans.” (Hinson has defended the war and voted against war powers resolutions.)
