These are close allies forming new relationships because Trump would rather align himself with fellow authoritarians and can't be trusted.

Draft evader Trump sends American military personnel into a dangerous foreign war without any stated goals or endgame, and then goes golfing.
That is how ignorant and heartless he is. Donald Trump cares about absolutely nothing except for Donald Trump.

As a kid, my father taught me to judge each person individually by their character, not by how they look or where they come from. I later realized he had picked up that concept from MLK Jr.
I don't believe a large number of Americans are morally bad. I do believe that many follow bad leaders.

Obama has not lost his talent to communicate, it has only gotten sharper. This is a deeply moving speech. He also has a bit to say about the current White House occupant. We're gonna need him on the campaign trail this November and in 2028.

So it now appears based on many media reports that we bombed a girls elementary school and killed 175 people, and right after that Hegseth was beating his chest in a press conference saying we weren’t going to worry about β€œstupid rules of engagement” anymore.

While Americans don’t want to pay for this war,Trump is planning to β€œtake over Cuba to fix it.” More like take it over to build resorts for the wealthy. Make it a money maker for the billionaires like himself.

There is reason for optimism on climate because climate action is multisystemic, international, and made up of layers of backstops and positive feedback loops

Trump’s actions threaten the integrity of our national parks, critics say Big cuts and sweeping changes have destabilized the National Park Service and its core missions.

He wants to rape them just like he does girls.

Spotify paid Taylor Swift & Bad Bunny over $400 million each. In 2024, Spotify paid over $10 billion to the music industry, marking the largest annual payout in music history.
In media, if you attract big numbers, you will make big bucks.
Rogan's contract isn't exclusive, he is also big on YouTube.

It is scary that these people actually believe Trump's BS.
Trump doesn't believe in God, he believes he is a god.

This is a fake joke cover but Trump is indeed fucking up the world. He is incapable of doing or making anything truly great.
He mostly produces a never-ending stream of ridiculous, idiotic lies.
He wears hats to cover up the massive empty hole in his head.

Spotify has over 750 million users & nearly 300 million premium users. I've been a premium subscriber since 2009. I use it only as an excellent source of music. I didn't know Rogan was on Spotify. He's on YouTube & other platforms too. There are plenty of Democrats (me) on Spotify too. Get real.

Trump excels at screwing things up. He found somebody even worse and less qualified to replace Kristi Noem. Mullin is a businessman with zero experience in security of any type.
He is a former professional Mixed Martial Arts fighter and likes beating people up. πŸ™„

The stupidest possible replacement for Noem. Considerably stupider than Noem herself, and comparably thuggish and violent.

It's really good news that Noem is being underbussed, but Mullin is a guarantee of yet more horrid (though politically very damaging and utterly ineffective) idiocy to come.

How much federal funding that we pay in taxes is ending up in Trump's pockets? He is a dishonest liar & rip-off.
He should not be in the White House; he should be in a courtroom facing charges for his crimes.
He already has 34 previous felony convictions.

Not counting my chickens, but it would be quite the self-own if Trump incited a redistricting Cold War that netted Democrats 5 seats in California and Republicans 1 seat in Texas.

Never do business with the Russians: for years, Dubai has helped Russia circumvent sanctions on tech and components, facilitating re-exports. Now,Iran is launching Russian-made drones at them, as confirmed by the discovery of a Russian Geran-2 drone near the Jebel Ali.

Johnson: US Must Wage War With Iran Because of Its β€œMisguided Religion” Johnson, Rubio, and Hegseth have made openly Islamophobic comments in remarks advocating for the war.

1/3

So now we’re fighting a religious war?

The Speaker of the House calls Iran’s faith β€œmisguided” while officials frame bombs as moral destiny. That isn’t national securityβ€”it’s medieval thinking with modern missiles. I thought the Crusades ended in 1291 AD. #NoHolyWar #StopIslamophobia

Donald Trump was a draft evader. He doesn't care about veterans or anyone else other than Donald Trump.
Members of the US military are now dying needlessly in a war of choice he started to distract from the Epstein files.
