This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."
When Massachusetts passed a "millionaires tax" in 2023, conservatives claimed the rich would flee.
But two years later, they haven't — and MA has collected $5.7B for infrastructure and public education.
A reminder that positive change can still happen at the state level.
🚨 BREAKING: Ronald Reagan’s daughter just blasted Donald Trump for “destroying the White House.”
When the Reagan family, the GOP’s sacred brand, starts calling out Trump by name, it’s not a feud.
It’s a fracture in the Republican soul.
Remember on 9/11 when the passengers on Flight 93 made that heroic effort and stopped the terrorists from destroying the White House? Republicans made no such effort to stop Trump..
In a career defined by milestones, we will never take for granted that we've gotten to see each and every one of yours in a Capitals sweater

Trump: We stopped the conflict between Cambodia and Armenia. It was just starting and it was a bad one.
There was never a war between them. They’re 4,000 miles apart.
BREAKING: Federal investigators say they’ve found no link between Charlie Kirk’s shooter and any left-wing groups. PER NBC
So the shooter isn’t Antifa.
Isn’t a Democrat.
Isn’t even political.
And yet, millions were fed a lie that sparked national outrage.
“If we don’t measure food insecurity, no one’s hungry”
“If we delete research on right-wing violence, there’s no right-wing violence”
“If we don’t release inflation data, there’s no inflation”
“If we stop Covid testing, we’ll have fewer cases”
You see what’s happening, right?
TRUMP: “John McCain, for some reason, couldn’t get his arm up…”
John couldn’t get his fucking arm up because he was tortured as a POW while serving in Vietnam.
Trump dodged the draft crying bone spurs. What a POS to still be besmirching a war hero.
No woman’s married name matches their birth certificate thus making them ineligible to vote.
The Save Act will suppress women’s votes.
Watch this female constituent drag McCormick (R-GA) at his town hall saying: “Why are you so scared for me to vote”?
