BREAKING: Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) is in the hospital after a stroke. There's no word yet on his condition. Hoping for the best. Murphy is an incredible man and great Senator.

Trump admits inadvertently that Starlink WAS turned off on Ukraine and Elon Musk turned is back on. "Whether I called or someone else called, doesn't make any difference the bottom line is he put it back."

It’s been reported that the US has told Zelenskyy to stop striking Russia’s oil refineries, or the US will shut down its intelligence sharing with Ukraine. There you have it folks. The US is now formally aligned with Russia. Whatever Putin has on Trump must be unimaginable.

‼️ MAJOR BREAKING: Carney threatens to sue Stelco parent company over HIS failure. Carney's government approved a US company buying Stelco in October 2024 
And now, as a result of HIS failure to negotiate a deal with Donald Trump, 500 jobs were just lost. 

Carney’s response? He’s threatening to sue Cleveland-Cliffs. Because HE couldn’t secure a deal with the US. Carney then accused the company, not himself, of betraying the workers. He approved the sale, lost the trade deal, and acts shocked at the result. You cannot make this up.

Hegseth: “Europe needs the Strait of Hormuz more than we do. Get on a boat. This is their fight, not ours.” Dude, you unilaterally started a war with Iran and now the you can’t win it do you seriously think you can just pass it off to other countries?

Trump “If we’re going to save the Kennedy center, I think the Trump administration should be given recognition for doing so.” Save the Kennedy centre ? Before you fucked it up with your Trump stench, FY2024 under Biden, had a surplus of $40.7M

He has time for this but not for paralyzed veterans or CHOP officials who are concerned about Medicaid cuts and vaccines. Pennsylvania please retire this man.

Wife voted for Trump—now ICE is deporting her husband. "I used to support Trump Administration," she says. "But now my perspective has completely changed... they destroy and separate families." Husband was promised he was safe—due to his Convention Against Torture Protection. CAT Protection prevents the U.S. from deporting someone to a country where they are "more likely than not to be tortured." There have now been at least 17 publicly documented spouses/fiances of Trump supporters who have been detained by ICE during Trump’s second term. Sharon LeBone and her husband Marco Tulio Bonilla Romero have been married and living in the Los Angeles area for almost 10 years. Posting first full length and credited English language video here to help raise awareness.

You will not believe the food that is being served to our sailors on the USS Abraham Lincoln. OMG this is disgraceful, deplorable, and demeaning to our great men and women serving in the US Navy. I have no doubt that Trump has already given the word to punish them for as long as possible for their family members speaking out and negative media coverage that he is receiving as well as denying.

BREAKING: Remember when Republicans were all attacking the immigrant in Minnesota who ICE shot in the leg because “he attacked an ICE agent with a broom”. Guess what! Minnesota is now Suing Texas to force Greg Abbott to extradite the agent for LYING to the FBI and for shooting the immigrant.

Republicans control the House, Senate and the White House.
Gill: There’s something wrong in the country right now. Wages are not keeping up with inflation. Rents are way too high… it's these left wing ideologies that have created the problems in the first place.

This is just more evidence that the Trump administration is set on destroying the rule of law, and that the GOP is ready to just let him do it.

He just ended the Medicare drug subsidy - seniors pay more. Now he wants to gut the Head Start program - free preschool to half a million kids. Trump must hate the elderly and our children!
