Markwayne Mullin is slated to replace Kristi Noem. Because if there’s one thing this situation needs, it’s more chaos. What’s the worst that could happen?

The US and China opposed condemning Russia for it's attacks on civilian infrastructure.

They are OK with war crimes against civilians, putting them in the dark and cold at temperatures of -20Β° C, or -4Β°F.

This will not be forgotten.

Boycott the #USA and #China where you can..

I keep thinking about voter intimidation. People may not want to go to a dropbox or fear they need a passport, so they won't vote at all. I feel like we need to start training for ballot collection or make Know Your Rights cards, election style.

And don't come at me w/ "midterms aren't happening".

😁 Former Russian Deputy Defense Minister Tsalikov, Shoigu's right-hand man, was found to have hundreds of millions in real estate.

He is accused of creating a criminal organization, embezzling budget funds, and accepting bribes.

Even more surprising is that all of this came to light after 2024.

ICE detains reporter Estefany RodrΓ­guez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany RodrΓ­guez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

Blumenthal: "I have emerged from classified briefings deeply concerned and very fearful that we're on the precipice not only of an escalating conflict that in region, but also putting troops on the ground b/c that is almost inevitably the path the admin has chosen by its current tactical approach"

We need MEDICARE FOR ALL! I could be the poster child for this cause.

For profit insurance has left me deeply in medical debt after fighting melanoma for 18 years.

I pay crazy amounts in premiums, coinsurance, copays and they still deny me treatment and testing options.

Please help and share! ❀️

47 years is the *opposite* of imminent (which means "something that will happen soon"). These people are so stupid.

JUST IN: A federal judge has barred Gov DeSantis from designating CAIR as a terrorist organization and punish those who associate with the group.

β€œOnce again, Florida chooses political posturing over the First Amendment,” Judge Walker writes.

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities

McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

Reminder that the US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined.

Over half goes to private defense contractors.

This is the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned of β€” on steroids.

Wow: It appears Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) will not run for reelection.

This comes just days after Rep. Ryan Zinke (R-MT) also announced he will not seek reelection.

Seems like the media should at least express some curiosity about this.

Basically, what the Department of Justice argued in court today was that RFK Jr. has the absolute authority to kill millions of people with impunity.

I do not exaggerate.

Here we go again, America. We have to give a President another blank check and give him as much as he wants to shoot unlimited $20 million interceptors at $20,000 drones and if we don’t we are unpatriotic so pay up.

Virginia Supreme Court clears way for voters to counter GOP gerrymanders The decision restores the referendum and allows election preparations to move forward immediately.

Good news!

The Virginia Supreme Court ruled Wednesday, for the second time, that voters can decide whether the state can redraw its congressional map β€” clearing the way for a referendum that, if successful, could help counter GOP gerrymanders nationwide. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

If any democrat votes to approve funding for ICE or wars, we must do everything we can to get them voted out.

So remarkably frustrated by the United States government this week. That it is in the hands of the worst, most incompetent, most compromised people. Ideologues and grifters. That our society enables it all. That they give a blank check to war mongers and the 1% and literally starve the country.

Karoline Leavitt told us the US State Department was helping Americans stranded in the Middle East.

She lied.

One Texas woman in Dubai called the State Department hotline, was scolded for being scared and then hung up on.

This administration is *full* of incompetent, rude people.

Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."

AOC: He impulsively went in on Venezuela. He impulsively went in on Iran. It led to increased global instability and every time he’s done that, it has been consistent with a spike in what is happening with the Epstein files. I think that he feels existentially tied to it.

I’m gonna say this and I’m gonna be very ugly about this. This stupid idiot needs to not even put Winston Churchill in his mouth. This is an embarrassment and an insult to people that live in Britain.. Winston Churchill is a better man than this piece of shit we have for president
