Trump on Iran War: Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal? Trump: Not even a little bit. I don't think about Americans’ financial situation

The "Miller ordered me to do it" defense will be used a lot at the war crimes trials.

Genuinely interesting. Kristi Noem is snitching that Stephen Miller is the one who made up the bullshit about Alex Pretti. It would be genuinely useful if Congress can get her to admit that he has been dictating ALL OF THIS just like he dictated the murderboats. www.axios.com/2026/01/27/t...

Complaining about immigration destroying New York City is like lamenting that gambling has ruined Las Vegas.

“Abortion is murder” turned into “Birth control is bad” turned into “Women should not vote & neither should those under 25” fast. That’s exactly what we, those outspoken folks like me, said would happen. Exactly. It’s a power grab by white men who miss the days when they controlled everything.

Instead of trying to get the 10 commandments up in schools how about the bill of rights? Republicans especially need to be made aware of what they are giving up if they just roll over and let the Trump regime end the Constitution. Are we ready to be done with rights and protections completely???

Or what happened with the state department ending the surveillance program on the thousands of abducted Ukrainian children last week??? How is this story just completely being dropped?

It’s possible to walk and chew gum but to the extent that the focus on Signal-gate is so intense that it drowns out issues that impact Americans more directly — like the gutting of the Social Security Administration or the defunding of cancer research — it could work to Trump’s benefit

[If Chuck Schumer replaced Sean Astin in Lord of the rings] CHUCK SCHUMER: There is no good left in the world, Mr. Frodo. Nothing is worth fighting for.

I don't understand how everybody's so certain the shutdown did not have even more danger. What if he uses it to declare a state of emergency? Or he just has the empty buildings demolished so federal employees don't have a job to go back to?

I wish the absolute worst for each one of these fucking turncoats.

Why are so few people even acknowledging the other Cliff we would be jumping off of by having Trump in control when the government shuts down? You don't see him declaring a state of emergency?

Chuck Schumer is a long term GOP sleeper agent. Prove me wrong.
