Bahrain put forward a resolution for the UN Security Council (why bother with the powerless General Assembly) to condemn Iran for attacking Arab Gulf states and Jordan. All voted in favor with China and Russia abstaining. Yet, no one is voting to condemn the US and Israel for starting the war.
I have very little confidence that our elections will be free and fair.
Even if the results are reported accurately, Trump and Republicans in Congress will likely impede any Democrats from assuming office.
I also don’t trust our military or law enforcement.
But I’m still going to vote.
The Epstein files need to become the Epstein trials.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from Epstein files release.
Now feels like a good time to remember that Big Oil is the reason why we're still hooked on dirty, dangerous fossil fuels.
The industry's lies have essentially stolen a generation’s worth of time that we could have used to transition to cleaner, safer energy sources.
It’s time for accountability.
Where was Farage’s closest aide and Reform UK Welsh leader Nathan Gill heading when he was arrested for taking bribes from Putin’s pal Medvedchuk?
To a Kremlin sponsored conference in Moscow, to talk about the role of crypto currencies in politics
The warnings are there for us all to see
Who do they represent? Themselves.
Nigel Farage and Suella Braverman missed NINE votes in Parliament last night, all because they had a more important Reform UK rally on the Isle of Wight.
They think they are too big to do their job.
These very same billionaires are further enriching themselves by stealthy enshittification of goods/services they sell to us. Their greed has no limits. They take no pride in the quality of those goods & services. Many hide behind shell companies to avoid scrutiny/taxes. Our regulators are impotent.
From 1941 to 1952 in the UK, the top rate of income tax was 98%. A luxury goods purchase tax introduced in 1940 later rose to 100%.
Result? The share of incomes captured by the richest 0.1% fell from 7% in 1937 to just over 1% in 1975. That's what we need today. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

He’s a psychopathic sadistic liar.
Sen Chris Coons, "President Trump gives answers out of both side of his mouth in the same day"
"Clearest winner in war with Iran is Russia"
Netanyahu has tried for years to get a US president to go along with his desire for a war with Iran. He finally found one. Then he used chemical weapons on Lebanon. This man is committing war crimes and igniting hatred that will start more killings and destruction everywhere.
They’ve started the search of Epstein’s Zorro ranch.
Should have happened years ago.
Farage and Badenoch are absolute clowns: startled by the entirely foreseeable series of events they failed to foresee. A demonstration of their total lack of judgement.
It was a privilege to be in the chamber earlier to witness this incredibly powerful and effective speech from Charlotte Nichols.
Schumer on the SAVE America Act: "It is not about showing ID when you show up to vote. It's about the voter registration rolls, destroying them, purging them, not letting people know, and taking the rights in an algorithm but together by DOGE and Musk -- it's an outrage"
“While Nige has been brown-nosing Trump with his warmongering, he’s missed that most of the country doesn’t want to follow the orange narcissist into an illegal war with no fixed objectives other than continue till The Donald gets bored”

There are plenty of reasons for Trump to be attacking Iran:
-Fulfilling bargains with other Arab states
-More rank profiteering
-Distraction from Epstein
-Distraction from his destruction everywhere
None of them include making the world safer or Americans’ lives better.
These were posted within minutes of each other. So which one is it? Is it over or is there no end in sight?? Our msm is a clusterfuck. Guess I’ll check the news in another country to find out what is happening here.
"As global attention shifts to the war with Iran, settler violence in the occupied West Bank continues to escalate"(PalTimes News) #WestBank #Settlers
So Let's recap for a second time.
Donald Trump is not only not protecting the USA.
He's not protecting our soldiers.
He's allowing Russia to put bounties again on the heads of our soldiers , just like HE DID HIS FIRST TERM.
he's also stopping or slowing sanctions.
WHO EXACTLY DOES HE WORK FOR?
Not trying to be hyperbolic, I fear we are on the cusp of a 9/11 type catastrophe that this regime is unwilling and unable to protect us from.
If you refuse to criticize any sort of politician, I don’t value your opinion on anything. They all work for us and should be criticized regularly.
It’s not meant to be an easy job. It is literally life and death for so many people in this country.
The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.
We’re in an unwanted war in an age of seemingly limitless information, yet it’s safe to say the average American has no possible reliable clue what’s going on over there cuz our government that would share any information is wholly untrustworthy, staffed w/ liars lying for a pathological liar POTUS.
Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.
That's a quote for the ages
Confirmed, it happened. 🤬 O M G...
In 2019, Jane Doe came forward and was interviewed by the FBI four times about her encounters in the early 1980s. This was the individual that Hillary Clinton referenced in her comments to the House Oversight and Reform Committee.
