If your so-called president is getting richer during his term while you are getting poorer, you may want to vote accordingly next time.....

...if you get a chance to.

Slotkin: "If Russia is helping to kill US forces, we have crossed a rubicon. We have to take decisive action on that. Instead, we're giving them breaks on oil. They're making a ton of money."

Are you against the War on Iran?

Do you want your country to have nothing to do with it?

If so, spread the message.

No to Donald Trump's evil illegal war.

DISTRACTIONS DON’T WORK.

NOT EVEN WAR.

Very fair Q to this administration of perpetually disingenuous chucklefucks:

Would they spend a day or two or three’s worth of war πŸ’° to ensure these voting IDs they insist everyone needs are in the hands of every eligible voter in the USA long before midtermsβ€”no matter what it takes. If not, GTFOH

God Formally Notifies Mike Johnson That he is Going to Hell The Almighty said that Johnson’s support of Donald Trump’s war in Iran was the β€œlast straw” that sealed the Speaker’s eternal damnation.

Sometime satire isn't just satire, but the truth. See today's Borowitz.

β€˜They pushed so many lies about recycling’: the fight to stop big oil pumping billions more into plastics Plastic production has doubled over the last 20 years – and will likely double again. For author Beth Gardiner, metal water bottles and canvas tote bags are not the solution. So what is?

Trying to use less plastic?

Big Oil and the plastics industry are spending billions to make sure everyone else uses more.

β€œI think what stood out most is the deliberateness and intentionality over the years of pushing plastic into our lives,” said @bethgardiner.bsky.social. β€œIt was such a shock."

U.S. Air Force B-1 And B-52 Bombers Now Striking Iran From The UK The U.S. Air Force now operates three distinct bomber aircraft, all of which can trace their development back to the Cold War.

Parliament wasn't consulted - and polling shows huge numbers oppose it.

When do MPs get a say over our involvement in this war?

Trump seems to think he’s been exonerated from the biggest child sex crime in history. The coverup continues.
