Canada is giving serious consideration to changing the name of Donald Trump to “President Poopy Britches.” Thank you for your attention to this matter.
BREAKING:
After the Washington Post fired me last year for speaking the truth in the wake of the Charlie Kirk killing, I fought back.
And I'm happy to announce: I won my case against the Washington Post.
They have been ordered to reinstate me immediately.

The next president should campaign on a proposal to establish a WPA like program through the department of labor. Offer some free training for people going into skilled trades. Build up our communities.
He even tried to assinate all of Congress and hang his VP to keep power and the American electorate says "Meh, what ever. No big deal, libs are stupid and hate America so I'm voting Trump/staying home."
Donald Trump is working to shut down the Department of Education.
That means bigger class sizes. That means no aide for the kid with special needs. That means kids who need help to be able to go to college don't get that help.
We can't let that happen.
JD Vance: "This is how wars ultimately get settled. If you go back to World War 2, if you go back to every major conflict in human history, they all end with some kind of negotiation."
Yesterday we posted about the Trump administration shutting down the LGBTQ+ youth crisis line, the “press 3” option on 988 is officially gone. The Trevor Project is stepping up to help fill the gap, and they could really use some support right now. If you’re able, please consider donating! 🏳️🌈 💛
64 days with no aid reaching Gaza. No food, water or medicine. Children are starving.
Netanyahu’s extremist government now says it will occupy Gaza & put mercenaries in charge of distributing aid, instead of the UN and other aid groups.
Despicable. No more US support for Netanyahu’s war machine.
Any elected official who bought stock in the last 48 hours should face insider trading charges. Using privileged info for profit isn’t leadership, it’s corruption, plain and simple. No one is above the law, especially those who write it.
Finally, an important event has occurred.
Hakim Jeffries, leader of the House Democrats, invited Mike Johnson to debate. He will debate him in the House of Representatives over the Republicans’ budget proposal.
If this happens, it could be one of the biggest transformations in the United States.
Elon Muskie thought he could buy the courts and bait Wisconsin voters with his crypto claws. But the people aren’t biting. 🎣
On April 1, send him sinking. Vote Susan Crawford for Supreme Court Justice.
RFK Jr. wants to gut the very agencies that protect us from pandemics, approve life-saving drugs, AND help our most vulnerable get healthcare? Y’all… this isn’t reform, it’s reckless.

I forgot how much I love Minnesota. Working to flip the senate seat where I live. Not easy. This is MAGAT country. I worked with Paul Wellstone when I was in college. I can do this. I'm sure Justin Eichorn is doing fine in jail.
Just letting all know that I am back in MN. In Justin Eichorns district, looking to flip. I will not run, but will get the right candidate elected. This is a big one.
Trump has now erased the recent US surgeon general's warning that gun violence is a public health crisis. As I reported recently, this is just the start of what Trump will do to appease far-right gun lobbyists and wipe out years of progress on gun safety www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
I am not a practicing Christian and I have not been catholic since childhood. But I absolutely love pope Francis and I will be sending Metta all day. Please stay well.
Here’s an idea: Hochul removes Adams and replaces him with someone who will tell the Secret Service that the next time Trump comes to Manhattan the Secret Service can block the streets themselves without the help of the NYPD
