BREAKING: In defiance of Vladimir Putin and Viktor Orban, protestors in Hungary stormed the streets to voice their opposition to authoritarianism. This is being almost entirely ignored by mainstream media. Let’s make it go viral.

They abolished themselves. As happened in Russia, where they were so afraid of standing up that they kept ceding their power to Putin and eventually they had no power left, and it didn’t matter what they thought.

Science-of-the-Gaps Fallacy: When a phrase akin to “science doesn’t have all of the answers” is used to justify unsupported claims. It's often used to promote pseudoscience and alternative approaches to health that are clearly and scientifically baseless.

What's with Baum is vintage Woody Allen - funny, neurotic, addictive, occasionally even thought-provoking. It's a fine whine. Loved it.

Trump’s new Defense plan quietly outlines a “National Guard response force” trained in crowd control and civil unrest, to be deployed across all 50 states by April 2026. Let that sink in. They’re not preparing to leave office; they’re preparing to lock the country down.

Trump is sending the DOJ to California to “monitor” the election. His intentions are clear — he wants to suppress the vote. And when we win, he will falsely lay claim to fraud. We will not be intimidated. California will defend free and fair elections.

Even if the East Wing were a wreck (which it wasn't) ... even if the proposed Trump ballroom were beautiful (which it isn't) ... the demolition would still be a scandal because it's financed by bribes.

MAGA just found out Reagan wasn’t one of them. Trump built his movement on walls and tariffs; Reagan tore both down. Now they’re rewriting history to claim he was anti-immigrant. He wasn’t. He believed in America as a beacon, not a bunker.

The Pentagon somehow determined that the best supplier available for drone parts just happened to be the one that had one of President's sons on its board -- government-wide graft going on.

Trump Is Usurping Congress’ Most Important Power, And It’s Making A Shutdown Deal Nearly Impossible. Impossible to deal with such an inveterate liar and law breaker. https://t.co/3UOoI7QSiW

What’s the point of making a deal when Trump will either refuse to spend money or decide to spend that money on something else?

The amount is meaningless — less than one day of salary. But the principle is important: once the armed services are paid by the oligarchs, they become a private militia, and we no longer have a country. https://t.co/6NQtjhhFsk

President Trump expressed anger over an ad that featured President Ronald Reagan criticizing the effects of tariffs in 1987. The move added uncertainty to U.S.-Canadian relations.

BREAKING: After the release of an ad that caused Trump's tantrum ending trade talks with Canada, the original video of Ronald Reagan slamming tariffs has resurfaced. He called the new ad "fake." The original destroys Trump on tariffs. Share this widely. https://t.co/e6aE3NlbLA

This morning, MAGA is trying to rewrite history—claiming Reagan was anti-immigrant and pro-protectionism. But the truth is, Reagan stood for almost everything Trump opposes. It’d be a real shame if this went viral. https://t.co/0MrbmKx2BP

Retired intelligence analysts confirm what the political scientists are telling us — and what the world outside is telling us — the goal of these people is the end of law, the end of democracy, and the end of a recognizable republic. https://t.co/RQW7qAIjj3
