Trump has just declared himself the "acting president of Venezuela" over on Truth Social in case you're wondering about his mental health.

Revised Time magazine cover of Trump: crowned with the "No Kings" logo and "triumph" changed to "failure."

Revised Time magazine cover of Trump: crowned with the "No Kings" logo and "triumph" changed to "failure."

Time maga's failure to keep up with the times, and Trump's failure to admit the ceasefire has ceased due to Israel's multiple violations.

Trump's Chronic Venous Insufficiency: What to Know About the Common Condition More on the venous disorder currently in the spotlight

Trump's Chronic Venomous Hypersufficiency

β€’ effects 1 to 2 percent of the population
β€’ blood no longer flows to the heart and brain
β€’ moral compass becomes damaged and eventually rots
β€’ ego swells, and swells, and swells until it bursts, producing a mucosal effluence of rank stinkiness
β€’ others?

Website For MAGA-Friendly Businesses Backfires As People Use It For Boycotts Social media posts about PublicSquare have gone viral as Trump critics use it to find companies not to support – the opposite of what the site was set up for.

Want to know which local businesses do not support democratic values?

Senator Padilla (D-CA) was one of the nicest and caring Senators I ever spoke with.

He’s also tough about standing up to Donald Trump on issues like immigration. His voice is crucial.

He just joined Bluesky today. Please consider giving him a follow!

This French speech is 8 minutes of analysis of the current U.S. regime and potential responses from a unified Europe.

P.S. This French senator makes the U.S. Congress sound like elementary school nitwits having a wee-wee contest over who gets to raise the flag.

Book banning is a white-straight-cisgender-xenophobic strategy to silence diversity.

What can you do? Defend targeted books at school and library board meetings. Put down you favorite banned book and take a little action!

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.
