Sorry, are Trump’s roving death gangs openly threating to murder Democrats after their recent killing spree?
America is becoming a dark, dark place.
The #US has no business meddling in other countries whatsoever
I don't support the regime in Iran one bit but big bad USA striking wherever they want is no solution
Like said before, it starts here but where does it end
#Trump is a senile mad dictator who is a dangerous threat for the whole planet at this point
Don't forget about the fact most cabinet members are in some way in the #Epstein files, I'm pretty sure this is the most unfit administration in US history

I present to you my theory that there are, in fact, no #conservative politicians. There are only conservative voters.
The correlation between low education levels and conservative political leanings is very strong and repeatedly demonstrated.
Ergo, the politicians that want to fuck the world over, kill people, burn crosses, and be general overall fuck heads see that their best chance is by becoming "conservative politicians" so those dumb ass dunce fucks will vote for them.

'In the face of loud and insistent warnings, President Joe #Biden and his team of best-and-brightest advisers wrapped Benjamin Netanyahu in a “bear hug,” as #Palestinians were slaughtered by the thousands with American bombs, American diplomatic support and American intelligence.'

Pff I'm so sick of this political story time bullshit
The simple answer is a "yes" or "no"
These people are getting paid to bullshit, all day everyday
You gotta know that every journalist with any high-level access is frantically working their sources to dig out the true story of the trade talks collapse. Both sides are currently saying the other made unreasonable last-minute demands. MAGAtalk can be assumed false but still, everyone wants to hear the details.
New from @josephinelee, in the cover story to our magazine: Districts across the state are arresting and citing young children #children for common misbehavior, leaving lasting trauma as the Legislature rejects bills to raise the age of criminal responsibility and floods schools with even more #police. https://www.texasobserver.org/texas-school-arrests-crisis-kids-as-young-as-10/
In July 2025 we started a web project showing a map listing all of ICE's reported detention centers, with the number of detainees. This data was simply gathered from public records shared by ICE.
But since April 9th 2026, ICE stopped sharing this data, entirely.
The public can no longer know where ICE's facilities are, and how many people are currently detained. This is a dangerous transparency problem.

The USA is engaged in a war of choice to defeat itself. It certainly is a special moment.https://phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/midweek-update-20-each-day-the-us

You guys realize that Israeli do this EVERY SINGLE DAY? They teach kids in Hebrew schools, not just in Israel but abroad in the US and Canada, with maps showing all of Palestine as Israel. They did this openly and publicly in Edmonton, Alberta, during our Heritage Days CULTURAL FESTIVAL (and of course, nothing was done about it)! This is every day, not just in Israel but around the world by every organization which is Pro-Israel, in your country and mine (leading to racist attacks at home by the same people, simply for being seen in a kufiya or hijab).
"Lake America" may only exist in the minds of MAGA and on MAGA-owned media like Google Maps, but "Palestine doesn't exist" and "From the river to the sea, there is only Israel" is taught around the globe.
So every single country which rightly considers these actions to be a "threat" from Donald Trump and the United States (including Greenland, Iceland, Canada, Mexico, and all the nations in Central America), why the fuck are you not standing up against this CONSTANT threat against Palestinian sovereignity from Israel?!
Remember that Israel already occupies all of Palestine under an apartheid military occupation, destroying their homes, killing their families, and locking them up on a whim. Yes, the threat is real. If we dismiss it against others, it will become a reality at home sooner than you think. Would you want to be thrown into Alligator Alcatraz by our neighbour's ICE forces for being Canadian? No?
Then grow a fucking spine and stand up for Palestine!
PS, where did you think Donald Trump got the idea to post these maps? Hasbara, of course.
Never Again means Never Again FOR ANYONE.

Tommy Stupidville (R-AL) is poised to become Alabama's next governor. He's proudly proclaiming that he doesn't read anything because all that matters to him is "his own opinion."
I wonder whether he even CAN read.

Spain's Prime Minister says Spain doesn't, didn't, have wildfires "like Canada and Australia," and climate change is devastating.
"About 2,500 firefighters (including a Swiss team), 1,500 military personnel and about 1,200 police had been deployed to Gironde, Nuñez said, as he praised the contribution of 450 volunteers from civil security organisations.
He said another five municipalities had been evacuated overnight."

America should be ashamed.
No one should ever have to delay medical care due to cost.
The US is the only developed country that doesn’t guarantee healthcare to its citizens, and as a result they have extremely poor outcomes & lower life expectancy.
Healthcare is a human right.

Report: Francesca Albanese: The removal of ICC chief prosecutor Karim Khan cannot be read in isolation from the campaign to overturn the ICC's arrest warrant against Netanyahu.
"Khan's removal lines up neatly with the fight to neutralise Netanyahu's arrest warrant."
Israel's Gideon Saar, "played an active role in efforts to remove Khan."
"If the ICC is paralysed, lawyers & judges worldwide must do more."

My utmost respect to everyone yelling truth at #Trump!
"Pedophile protector" or even "Pedophile President"
I'd wish I could do this myself all day everyday until he gone..
