I am convinced that a big part of Trump's appeal among his MAGA base is his lack of intellect. Many of his supporters identify with his complete stupidity, his rude racist obnoxious and uninhibited behaviour. They think "He is one of us" however much his policies damage them and their daily lives😱

A quick lesson on winning and losing a war. If you start a war of choice, blow through masses of your weapons stocks so that you cannot escalate effectively, and find the country you attacked dictating negotiating terms while in a stronger strategic position. You lost.

Peaceful protesters at MDC LA tied 76 ribbons for lives lost to ICE, only to face state violence: a federal agent pointing a gun, beating one demonstrator, & pepper-spraying another after young girls were taken inside. We demand accountability for this brutality! #AbolishICE 🎥 windstormjustice

When the banks needed help, they called it “stabilizing the economy.” When airlines needed help, they called it “protecting jobs.” When corporations got tax breaks, they called it “pro-growth.” When working people need health care? “SOCIALISM.”

Consequences of doge eliminating the services your tax $ provide to funnel the $ to the rich. And when those wealthy people contribute enormous amounts of $ to the morally bankrupt party that will eliminate safety regulations and anything hindering their profit. 🗳 IWillVOTE.com

My favorite part of this story was when the Trump cabal sent Mike Waltz out to blame the weapons shortage on Joe Biden; then he did a 180 by claiming the missile supply WASN’T depleted; then he immediately AGAIN admitted the story is true-and the people who leaked it would be prosecuted Classic

New in PN: Trump can’t lie his way out of a missile shortage "Unlike Republican voters and senators, adversaries like Russia, Iran, & China are not especially dazzled by Trump’s oozing narcissistic wounds. His priority is his ego first with national security coming in a very, very distant second."

More leaders need to follow El-Sayed’s lead and make the CLEAR point that the trump regime is LITERALLY making people sick. It’s not just a coincidence that all of this wide spread food related illness is happening after the massive cuts to FDA and food safety inspectors. @democrats.senate.gov

Before taking office, Katie Hobbs spent her career as a social worker-supporting families facing homelessness & escaping domestic violence. That experience shapes her work as governor every day, from tackling medical debt to making child care more affordable. AZ finally has a leader who understands.

AOC is the single most important, original voice in American politics today...those who dismiss her chance to lead the country miss the degree to which she regularly speaks for the whole country...across the political spectrum. Because she speaks for regular people. Her influence will only grow.

AOC: Millennials are not punk kids anymore. We're grown adults with mortgages and kids, and that generation is starting to be decisive at the polls. And there is anger at being ignored, having our economic futures mortgaged by the generations that came before us and we're taking the reins

🇺🇦 Zelenskyy: Russia has built three layers of air defense around Moscow, but Ukraine will continue developing technologies to penetrate them. He said a recent Ukrainian operation targeting Russian logistics caused losses estimated at 1 trillion rubles.
