@Acyn I thought Trump was warning on Communism —- this is State determining a business prices.

So… under Trump, Vance and Hegseth - Americans have paid $37.5Billion (so far) AND the lives of 15 American troops for the privilege of paying sharply higher gas prices and closing the Strait of Hormuz. And ALL Republicans support every bit of this.

@Acyn They're all the same, aren't they?

Donald Trump's massive accumulation of wealth in his second term has some of his most ardent defenders throwing up their hands —- they can no longer say how great he is for forgoing his Presidential salary.

@Acyn Raise the funds by increasing taxes on those earning over $10 million a year.

@krassenstein No soldiers died with Obama’s Iran Nuclear agreement. Instead the US achieved comprehensive international monitoring of Iran’s nuclear program. China , Russia were partners.

Eby: "I feel sorry for Americans. If you can't be friends with Canada, then you almost certainly do not have a friend anywhere in the world. And that is a very lonely place to be."

The President is once again pushing a button to raise our prices and screw over Pennsylvania farmers and businesses. Canada is our Commonwealth's largest trading partner — and these knee-jerk, reckless tariffs are hurting our economy, jacking up costs for Pennsylvania families, and closing off markets for our businesses.

Russ Clark, a retired U.S. Marine Corps infantry commander who served in Vietnam and holds a graduate degree in mental health counseling, issued a scathing assessment of Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, stating that his ten-year acquaintance with Hegseth allowed him to diagnose the defense secretary as "an arrogant, inebriated, misogynistic, cruel, sadistic, adolescent psychopath" who is now "controlling the strongest military in world history like he's playing a video game". Clark's post on Threads (March 2026), carries particular weight given his credentials as both a combat veteran and retired United Methodist minister who now serves as a chaplain to veterans.

President Trump is brazen in how his Administration has helped his donors and friends. Donald Trump Says His Tax Cuts Helped Friends Buy Things They Didn't Need. One Bought a 'Very Expensive Private Plane' How do working families think this man cares about their food bills?

Frank Bisignano, the head of the IRS and Social Security Administration, runs two government organizations. When he was co-chief operating officer at Chase, he spied on fellow executives, accessing sensitive information without justification. Gift link 👇 wsj.com/finance/bankin…

Yet another smoking gun: Trump "told one advisor that Blanche needed to grasp that he didn't really care whether [Letitia James] was ultimately convicted. The ... goal was to drag [her] into court ... 'I want to make her life miserable.'" From "Regime Change," by @maggieNYT & @jonathanvswan

What’s worse than a 29% approval rating? … a 23% approval rating. That’s what Trump has on his handling of the #EpsteinFiles. Even Fox News knows Trump is a thoroughly incompetent disaster.

BREAKING: BRAVO! Senator Mark Kelly gives the PERFECT response when asked if America is ready for a disabled First Lady in his wife, Gabby Giffords: "We have a disabled President right now." And that's not all he said... Giffords was shot in the head by a would-be assassin in Arizona in 2011. Thankfully, she survived the attack and has made an astounding recovery, though her brain suffered damage to the region that handles speech in the form of non-fluent aphasia. In a new piece in The Atlantic, Kelly discussed the possibility of running for President. The reporter covered the unique marriage dynamic between the senator and his wife. Whereas Giffords was once a chatterbox who handled most of the talking, she's now more limited in her speech and Kelly does most of the talking. At one point during his conversations with the two, reporter Mark Leibovich asked Kelly if America is ready for a "disabled" First Lady. “Hey, in my opinion, we have a disabled president right now," said Kelly. The difference, of course, is that Giffords's disability was caused by a bloodthirsty gunman and Trump's is the result of worsening cognitive decline from aging, likely dementia. And while the former has overcome her challenges to become one of the nation's leading advocates for gun violence prevention, the latter has allowed his rotting mind to destroy the global economy, alienate every single one of our allies, and start a doomed and illegal war with Iran. Senator Kelly could not stop singing Giffords's praises and we don't blame him. She's an awe-inspiring woman. “The way she connects with people is unlike anybody else I’ve ever known,” Kelly said of his wife. “Before she was injured, people used to compare her with Bill Clinton.” "She’s been in this business. And she had, you know, like the worst thing that any politician could have happen, right? She gets shot in the head," he added. Together, she and Kelly strike an inspiring couple that offers a stark contrast from the pedophile and fascist enabler who currently inhabit the White House. “Certainly, if I was not married to Gabby, I would not be sitting here,” Kelly said during another conversation with Leibovich. “And if she wasn’t shot, I mean, I wouldn’t be here, right?” Do you think that Gabby Giffords would make a good First Lady?

Donald Trump always felt entitled to use women— over 26 women relate Donald sexually assaulted them. Beatrice knows who Donald Trump is. How can his supporters pretend these personal stories are not true?

The testimony of Beatrice Keul, a Swiss former beauty queen and banking executive, who spoke at length on the Bad Decisions Podcast with Scott Michael Nathan. She has also given interviews to outlets like the Daily Mail, but this particular conversation is the most comprehensive account of her experiences. Beatrice stresses she is Swiss, neutral, unaffiliated, not paid, not a spy. She worked in banking and participated in Miss Switzerland, Miss Europe, and Trump’s “American Dream” pageant. She frames her story as geopolitical, not gossip. She describes a happy, structured life: family, studies, banking career, languages, modeling as a hobby. Pageants were not her dream, but her appearance made them possible. After Miss Switzerland and Miss Europe, she says Trump personally invited her to his pageant. In 1990s Europe, Trump was portrayed as “Mr. New York,” symbolizing the American dream. She prepared diligently and expected a normal competition. At a press luncheon, Trump approached her directly, spoke with her, then sent Epstein to continue. She describes Trump and Epstein smiling at each other “like best friends,” coordinating roles. Epstein’s offers didn’t work, but Trump played on her trust. She says someone from his entourage led her upstairs, where she was violently assaulted. She emphasizes her passport had been taken at check‑in, leaving her trapped. Trump allegedly threatened her to stay quiet and insisted “the show must go on.” She claims three predators — Trump, Epstein, and another famous man — used the pageant as a playground. With 150 girls across three events, she says each was a potential victim. She told no one: parents wouldn’t understand, friends wouldn’t believe, police felt inaccessible. In the 1990s, she says women’s perceived “only right” was to suffer in silence. She buried the trauma but it resurfaced repeatedly. Trump’s 2016 election triggered flashbacks. She began writing a book, saw other women come forward, and gave a Daily Mail interview that went viral (150 million views). She believes this helped trigger broader coverage of Epstein. She claims retaliation from Trump, Musk, and Zuckerberg: shadow‑banning, account erasure, AI‑generated sites falsely portraying her as complicit in the Epstein Files. She frames this as daily terror. She alleges Ivana Trump was a “provider,” saying she met a witness who confirmed Ivana brought girls to Trump. She insists this is “1000%” true and includes details in her book. She says the book is finished, explosive, and will be published “dead or alive.” She sees herself as one piece of a larger puzzle, helping unlock global awareness of trafficking and elite predators. She insists she will not stop speaking, even under pressure. Her goal is to bring truth out, prevent future abuse, and ensure what happened to her does not keep happening “again and again to other women and children.” © Reddit #archaeohistories

The SAVE Act supposedly exists to stop noncitizens from voting illegally. In Texas, AG Ken Paxton opened an investigation into 33 potential noncitizen voters in June 2025. Fourteen months later: no charges, no update, nothing. The actual Texas voter fraud that surfaced this year? It’s from Paxton himself. ProPublica and the Texas Tribune found he’s voted in six elections from an address he doesn’t live at — a felony under the same law his office tells other people to follow. And he’s not a fluke. thebastionusa.com/conservative-v… If the SAVE Act were really about who’s actually breaking voting laws, maybe Republicans could start by looking in the mirror. Instead, they’d rather just make it harder for you to vote. #PayToVoteSaveAct
