This is absolutely true.
Casar: What’s just so sick about it is these right-wing politicians—they eat food cooked by immigrants, they get their fancy cars cleaned by immigrants, they do their corrupt deals in buildings engineered, built, and maintained by immigrants—then they have the gall to turn around and say immigrants are the problem. Guess what? An asylum seeker didn’t raise your rent—a hedge fund did.

PS I’ve met Putin many times and listened in on calls with him as well. I also speak Russian. Yes he is soft spoken, deliberate, and measured. So what? He’s still a killer. He still launched a barbaric invasion of Ukraine, that has produced tragic loss of life not seen on this scale in Europe since WWII.
Vance: "I've never met Putin in person. I've spoken to him on the phone. He was calmer than you might expect. The American media has a stereotype of him. He's very deliberate and measured in his words.
I think, at his core, he's someone who cares about Russia's interests as he sees them. One reason he respects the President is that he recognizes the President cares about the interests of the American people."

Looking forward to the orange version of this coming soon.

These are the statues of Qin Hui, a notoriously corrupt 12th-century Chinese official, and his wife Wang, kneeling forever in apology. For centuries, people have spat on, cursed, and slapped the statues to show lasting contempt.

We have reached the point where a former President of the United States has to remind the current president that criticizing him isn't grounds for deportation.

Absolutely despicable. Everything is a transaction with Trump. He does nothing unless it’s good for him. He is corrupt and cruel. They are fighting for their survival.

Ten years ago today.
In just the last few days: Trump made a deal for the U.S. to buy Russian diesel, an economic lifeline for Putin; he and Elon Musk blamed each other for an order that slowed down Starlink satellite connectivity over Ukraine, hampering the country's defenses during a devastating Russian attack; and Trump waived sanctions on Russia that Congress, led by his late friend Lindsey Graham, had pushed for.
Now, Putin has proposed a summit with Trump and Xi to decide Ukraine’s fate for them, bulldoze a century of international cooperation, and frame Russia as an equal to the U.S. and China.
We’ll see if Putin’s puppet continues to dance on his strings.

In case you were wondering if Larry Ellison would use his partial ownership of TIKTok to shut down the exposure of his billionaire buddies and their weirdness, corruption and grifting … wonder no more. TikTok just shut down the media page of the world renowned, Oscar winning director Alex Gibney’s documentary film “MUSK”. The comprehensive documentary on all things Elon. It’s more f&@&’d then you can imagine. The best thing any of us can do now is to go see it! It will blow your mind. Billionaire broke mind virus. Hear it from the people who have known Elon over the years. #BrokeMindVirus

Yes, our president is a russian puppet who is trying to dismantle NATO.
We know.
You know why Trump is president? Because russians absolutely flooded us with disinformation until the average American voted against his own interests. The FSB weaponized our stupid people against us.
It happened to us, just like it happened to Hungary, the UK during Brexit, and soon France. The russians can do this to your country, too. They can exploit this vulnerability anywhere there’s a democracy and a surplus of morons (hint: you probably live in such a place).
So, my question is, why demonize all Americans, even those who support Ukraine, because of what Trump is doing? Knowing that Putin and Trump are trying to divide NATO, why are certain NAFO fellas helping drive that wedge between America and Europe? Why are you doing Putin’s work?
Anti-MAGA Americans are fighting creeping autocracy: with the courts, with protests (that are being censored on social media, BTW), and politically. We’re doing way more than you realize, and we’re putting ourselves in danger to do it. We are also voting on November 3. We could use a little encouragement instead of blame.
Thanks.

President Zelenskyy has become one of the world’s greatest heroes. That’s eating Putin and Trump alive.

Say @GOPMajorityWhip? Put your money where your mouth is: Say the same thing to African immigrant Elon Musk.
Cmon. Prove you're man enough to do that.
Let me be very clear, @IlhanMN:
If it’s proven you or your father lied to gain citizenship, you will face the consequences. We are a nation of law and order and no one is above the law.

WOW. Trump’s #2 at DOJ just admitted this:
“There may be some names on there who it turns out ultimately are citizens. We’re not perfect.”

The Trump admin is moving forward on plans to impose financial penalties on Americans in default on their federal student loans and hire private debt collectors to go after them.
The plans are unlikely to be announced until after the midterms. washingtonsun.com/economy/tr…
