From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

After 20 years in the U.S. Navy, I believe leadership means honor, courage, commitment, and accountability. SC-7 deserves independent thinking and service rooted in the Constitution, not party loyalty. Compare the records and decide for yourself. #JohnVincentForCongress #SC7

“This is disgusting and wrong on so many levels, and while I will address it calmly, I won’t normalize it,” is precisely the right way to confront these things right now.

Amy Acton on Vivek Ramaswamy's abhorrent campaign ad: "I won't normalize somebody who has said that my childhood is 'something I'm just complaining about,' who today, just released an ad using my birth mother, who I was removed from at the age of 12 for severe abuse and neglect and sexual abuse."

These ads are being run constantly all over Michigan. It's another ploy for Trump and Musk to get their hands on your personal information. That way they can erase you from the voter registration records on file with the state. They'll pulling out all the dirty tricks to stop the midterms.

Every day, people like Josh show up on the line and build stuff. Every day, Mike Rogers shows up for his corporate donors, big checks, a Florida mansion, and two yachts. Who needs two yachts?

First, Trump takes “steps to chip away at American Bar Association's power to accredit law schools” Now, the “university” founded by Bari Weiss & Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale is building the “future of legal education, w/ support from the Federalist Society” but without ABA accreditation. 1/

No matter how hard you lie, the truth always comes out. Mike Johnson tried to push another lie to his MAGA base, telling them how productive Congress has been during his reign. But then Community Notes were brutal…

This is a big deal and it deserves a lot more attention. A federal whistleblower is sounding the alarm about a nationwide DHS operation called the “Unlawful Voter Initiative.” According to the disclosure, hundreds of employees at U.S. Citizenship and

John Reburn Call me crazy, but it seems excessive for taxpayers to cover the cost of flying 24 vehicles, 19 motorcycles, and 1 Natalie Harp to Ireland for 48 hours so our president can attend a golf tournament at his own club while voters can't afford healthcare, food, gas, utilities, or housing.

There have been so many impeachable offenses, but lying about how you were a hero on a day that 2,753 people died in NYC in the 9/11 disaster—when you were on the other side of town, safely calling local media to brag about how you now had the tallest downtown building—is such a despicable one

The last time I looked (and it was a while ago), the US content in a Bombardier jet was higher than the US content in a Gulfstream jet. (In both cases, the planes are predominantly US content.)

We’ve been over this before: Every Global 7500 that Bombardier builds in 🇨🇦 has 2 GE engines built in Indiana, 🇺🇸. Every Challenger that Bombardier builds in 🇨🇦 has 2 Honeywell engines built in Arizona. 🇺🇸. Bombardier employs 3,000+ 🇺🇸s & has 2,800 🇺🇸 suppliers. Not so smart.

Trump called for a national boycott of a Canadian company that employs hundreds of Americans at plants in Kansas and Indiana, which pays their bills and feeds their families. Which would put them all out of work if successful. On Labor Day. Because he’s mad at Mark Carney.

The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM. They want us to fight *any* war—except a class war. Happy Labor Day.

Eloise, a 1-year-old mini Jerusalem donkey, lives in the town of Hernando. She’s loved by her family of humans (the Osteens) and other farm animals (including Elsie the cow; goats Honey, Dolly, Roger, Polly and Dodger; and Tom, the king of the turkeys who stalks around his enclosure like a pharaoh).

As WSJ reported, Witkoff was handpicked by Putin to replace Gen Kellogg. He was picked because he built his whole New York real estate empire by laundering money for assorted Russian oligarchs in Putin's inner circle and is beholden to them.

It would be nice if someone could explain this community note to him. Having a president with a basic understanding of how trade works doesn’t seem like a ton to ask. Meanwhile our farmers are getting crushed.
