Will Democrats FINALLY fight back against Republican gerrymandering? Do they have the guts to do so? the Republicsn Supreme Court refused to take up gerrymandering leaving it to states; it’s time to give the GOP a taste of its own medicine; I’ve been calling for this for decades!
Donald Trump has no shame. He's calling up Governors and demanding seats in Congress so he can rig the election and maintain power. If we simply sit back and watch this happen, we are complicit.
I often think about how humanitarians in Rwanda said 'If only the world could see, if only they knew — they would act.' Well, the world does see Gaza. The world knows. And there will be no excuses when the reckoning comes. The trials will last for years.
When the Israeli 🇮🇱 Knesset lawmakers vote 71-13 in favour of illegally annexing the West Bank 🇵🇸 It’s never been ‘defence’ It’s always been a land grab.
NEW: The most important scandal of the week isn't the Epstein mess. It's the Gabbard-Trump plot to fabricate evidence for a sham DOJ prosecution of Obama–and perhaps show trials. A major abuse of power and a perversion of US intelligence & law enforcement. True authoritarianism.
I will be so amazed if the Democrats - even in CA - really have the guts (for once) to play hardball this way - GO FOR IT!
Who agrees with Newsom? 👇👇
Feed these babies! End this horror and NEVER forgive the US and Israeli monsters who decided to starve babies to death
Who agrees with Newsom? 👇👇
Trump signs on to Israel's Final Solution in Gaza: mass starvation, mass death, and mass expulsion of those who survive.
Trump on Gaza: "Hamas didn't really want to make a deal. I think they want to die ... they're gonna have to finish the job ... they're gonna have to fight and they're gonna have to clean it up. You're gonna have to get rid of it."
“Children of light vs. children of darkness” — that’s what they call it. Meanwhile, Israeli soldiers pose with toys that belonged to Palestinian kids. But those toys are silent now. Because the children are gone.
JUST IN: Marco Rubio: The United States strongly rejects Emmanuel Macron’s plan to recognize a Palestinian state at the UN General Assembly.
This clip with @PeterBeinart will become historic. A voice of conscience in an era of inhumanity and insanity. "The blood is on our hands as Americans because it is our weapons that are responsible for those children starving to death."
It’s hard to take seriously a pro-genocide “liberal” political party that never, ever delivers on any of its promises & throws its own voters under the bus while kissing corporate ass
Congrats to all the Democratic politicians, operatives, pundits & think tankers who will continue being enriched by liberal donors who keep giving you money to do the same thing forever. You've won the game of life - you get to keep getting paid while ruining everything.
.@TheDemocrats & @RepJeffries are now trying to blame @realDonaldTrump for atrocities they enabled Israel to commit for 15 months in Gaza - not gonna work guys
Spring 2024, Blinken rejected reports of Israel deliberately blocking aid to Gaza. After that story broke, he gave a fake deadline for aid, then lied about it again. A month later they forced the retraction of a famine warning. Biden officials didn’t just know all along that…
A top @realDonaldTrump ally handed me a Trump 2028 hat — these people aren’t joking. If we don’t stop this anti-democracy movement now, the 2028 election may look nothing like what we expect in a free country.
I have never felt so shaken. Children are dying of hunger. Falling one after another, like petals of a dying flower. Under our watch. How do you sleep, Presidents, Foreign Ministers, political leaders, diplomats, civil servants - doing nothing to stop Israel’s starvation…
The sheer intellectual collapse you have to experience to be faced with 122 international aid organisations telling you the same thing... ISRAEL IS STARVING GAZANS... only to decide they are ALL lying & that actually Benjamin Netanyahu, on trial for fraud, is telling the truth.
1. The DNC email hack was the biggest news story in 2016 & revealed how terribly unfair Hillary was to Bernie; 2. Trump asked Russia on TV for help; 3. It has been litigated by the Senate & DoJ; 4. And Trump WON in 2016! motherjones.com/politics/2025/…
Everyone spreading lies today to help Israel carry out the final stages of its final solution knows exactly what they're doing. We see you, you sick fucks. We'll remember you forever.
.@GavinNewsom you better not just be talking here sir - you must play the game like they play it & gerrymander every Republican district out of existence - if Repubs in Ohio, MO, Texas, Florida can do it - Dems can do it in CA
California Governor @GavinNewsom on the GOP’s Texas redistricting scheme: It’s a five-alarm fire.
John Kirby: The IDF is more careful with civilians than even the U.S. military! Green Beret sees the IDF in action, recoils in horror:
