Despite massive bombardment and the assassination of Iran’s leader, the US has failed to overthrow the Iranian government. Instead, the conflict is expanding and becoming more dangerous. The war is devastating civilians and the stock market.

Incredible if he just did a disappearing trick and never came back

I grew up during the Civil Rights Movement. Yes, seeing rights taken away, no autonomy over my OWN BODY, trying 2 decimate what equality we had. It KILLS my soul for all my little g-daughters & young girls all over this "country." Oh, Aaron, how I DO WORRY 4 ALL the young ppl in today's nightmare.

All alternative forms of energy squashed for oil profiteering....again

No credits for solar or EVs by this Criminal POTUS

I suppose squashing our only real protector escalating AI, Anthropic who stood up for safety over profits paved the way for Open AI for Musk? Buying 2024 + purged votes worked

A hanging chad decided our fate 😫

It really is. I go back a little further. I go back to thinking how the world was on September 10, 2001. Then after over a decade of war, Obama gave us hope. Gave us the breathing room to dream. And then it was all shattered in Nov. of 2016. I often remember the good old days.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

Including every single #Texas GOP starting with Greg Abbott, who has not objected to any illegal actions committed by this regime, instead he has encouraged and participated in this cruelty.

I want every republican who is backing this war and tweeting racist shit to be censored and forced to resign when we take back our house

Dems too

And where is that money going?

To the war billionaires.

I’m just so angry, 70+ million voted for this.

And no one objected.

Y’all.

Truly unbelievable stuff. Just up there shamelessly lying his ass off

As good a summary as you’ll see

Guess What Moderate Democratic Voters Aren’t Anymore? Moderate. Two new polls suggest that moderate Democrats, too, want higher taxes on the rich and some measure of economic populism. Moderate isn’t what it was in 1992.

Moderate Democrats with columns in newspapers are constantly saying the Democratic Party is way too liberal on "social" issues. Moderate Democratic voters in real life do not feel this way. With some polling data from @gelliottmorris.com and @dataforprogress.org. newrepublic.com/article/2074...

Everyone really should be paying more attention to this Section 230 situation.

Michigan gas jumped 56 cents in ONE week and hit the highest level in years.
Diesel: $4.99. Unleaded: $3.69. In Detroit.
Trump’s Iran war isn’t just a foreign policy disaster — it’s hitting autoworker country hardest.

A federal judge appointed to the bench by Donald Trump issued a 111-page ruling Monday, finding that the president's own immigration enforcement machine likely ran an unconstitutional racial profiling operation targeting Black and Latino Minnesotans.

I definitely remember gas rationing. It was horrible, and the lines were outrageous. I was lucky and knew two station owners who let me come in and fill up even if it wasn’t my day.

His mantra.

Trump goes full war is peace: "Inflation is plummeting, incomes are rising, the economy is surging"

What did I just say about Corporate Media being dead?
Looked no further than Jeff Bezos & his Washington Post
Question for Michael Birnbaum:
“Unique Style?”
Trump is a sociopathic, pathological liar suffering from dementia
Is that how you define unique?
