If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. And we certainly wouldn't have public executions. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It's about cruelty.

Through both Trump terms, the number one leaker has been Donald J Trump

At least the UK including King Charles and PM Andy Burnham are upholding their promise to protect Ukraine under the Budapest memorandum. Trump, Rubio, Hegseth, Witkoff and Kushner are all dishonorable men.

Greenland issued a reality check to Trump’s latest boast about the Arctic island. Trump claimed massive oil, gas, and mineral exploration is about to kick off there. Greenland’s deputy mining minister said the claim is far ahead of the facts. www.cnn.com/2026/10/14/p...

This is a stream of lies. Europe, not America, supports Ukraine. And the US has spent a fraction of the coat.

Trump makes clear that he has turned on Ukraine and Zelenskyy and want to help Russia destroy them. The technical term for this conduct in wartime is perfidy, an act of betrayal involving deceit.

Q: Are you concerned about the latest inflation number? Trump: No, I love it. The numbers were great. I love the inflation.
