Donald Trump and the MAGA GOP does not speak for the people they desperately seek votes from, they instead play to the corrupt billionaires who fund them. They do not represent you.

Texas women deserve better! A packed court is not a balanced court or a fair court! Please vote for Democratic Judges this November and let’s give women their rights back! 💪🏽

JD Vance targets hatred in any direction if it will get him closer to MAGA… even if it can harm those he loves most. What kind of man is JD?

The Republican candidate for president is attacking Volodymyr Zelensky while praising Vladimir Putin and the Russian military at the same time.

Has a single member of his party said a goddamn word about it? Anyone?

Russian ambassador walks out Lithuanian president’s UN speech.

Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausėda, who strongly criticised the Kremlin at the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, was not surprised that the Russian ambassador demonstratively left the hall during his speech. 

“It is difficult to communicate because I also did not want to listen to [...] his hard-to-understand speeches. Well, his demonstrativeness has probably been demonstrated more than once, and not only towards me,” Nausėda told journalists in the US.

“This is perhaps, again, a continuation of the same behaviour of Russia, which is demonstrating with everything it does that it does not give a damn about the principles of the UN Charter and that it will continue to use those privileges that were once granted to it, but which had lost their meaning because Russia is no longer the same Russia, or the successor of the Soviet Union, that was established when the United Nations was founded and the existence of this important organisation began,” the Lithuanian president said.

“I do not believe that Russia deserves the sympathy for its destructive behaviour,” he added.

During his speech at the UN General Assembly Nausėda stressed that Russia is mocking and undermining the credibility of the United Nations system by hiding behind its permanent seat on the Security Council.

“We have not been able to stop this madness. We have not been able to force Russia to reconsider its dangerous course. We have not been able to hold it accountable for so many violations of the United Nations Charter,” Nausėda said.

“Why was that the case? Because to this day, the aggressor is hiding under the cover of the Security Council’s permanent membership. Hiding in plain sight. Mocking every one of us with its unrestricted veto power. It is a terrible blow to the very credibility of the United Nations system,” he said.

“Each and every member of the United Nations – every sovereign nation – has also much to lose. [...] If any sovereign nation is under the threat of complete destruction, no country is truly safe anymore. If the international community looks away and ignores the unpleasant truth, no country is truly safe anymore. And if mass killings, deportations and deliberate attacks on the civilian population become the new norm, no country is truly safe anymore,” Nausėda said.

According to Nausėda, Ukraine is fighting for the future of all countries that believe in the UN Charter and its principles, yet, he argued, the collective response has been inadequate.

In his address, Nausėda called on countries, including Belarus, Iran, North Korea, and China, to stop providing Russia with military support, including the transfer of dual-use materials.
“More arms for Russia means more civilian deaths. More civilian infrastructure destroyed. More chaos,” he said.

Paxton is targeting another nonprofit that works with immigrant clients, this time for alleged violations of consumer protection laws — a fresh argument that the El Paso-based organization says is an overreach of the state agency’s authority. https://t.co/VdIY9FoDev

Today, I'll sign an Executive Order to crack down on emerging firearm threats like unserialized, 3D-printed guns and machine gun conversion devices.

It'll also direct my Cabinet to help improve school-based active shooter drills.

It's our job to do better.

Donald trump is so obsessed with Kamala Harris having worked at McDonald's, Stephanie Ruhle asked her, and she answered.

And then she parlayed her answer into making a point about people trying to earn a living.

Great interview. 👏🏽👏🏽

[Marty Taylor @RealMartyT7]

Donald Trump appearing in North Carolina has just called for the United States to “blow Iran off the face of the earth” in support of Israel. Trump wants the United States to send troops to Israel. And is calling for an escalation of the conflict between Hezbollah and Israel. Does anyone besides Donald Trump want the United States involved in this conflict? Does anyone want to send their sons and daughters to die in a war with Iran like Trump? This is madness from a candidate for president to make a statement this outrageous.

@lrozen As Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson has no authority to send such a letter to the head of a foreign nation. Especially one demanding the removal of a foreign ambassador. He should be sanctioned and removed as Speaker.

Don’t let the business fraud fool you.
Thanks to his billionaire buddy tax cut, Donald Trump handed the rest of us the third biggest debt increase in our nation’s HISTORY.
He invests in himself and his rich pals.

"Ukraine is gone"

Trump repeats verbatim Kremlin talking points, again calling for Ukraine to surrender.

With our Joint Declaration of Support for Ukrainian Recovery and Reconstruction, over 30 countries and the EU have committed to:

1. Provide Ukraine the resources needed to build back stronger
2. Hold Russia accountable for its actions
3. Coordinate closely, now and in the future

There is no reason humans should -- or need to -- be eating krill. Zero.

Get your omega 3s from plant foods (like walnuts) or algae supplements and leave the krill for the marine life.

Besides, guess where krill get their omega 3s? Algae and seaweed.

I'm sorry, whales. 💔

“I was in shock. I felt sick inside. I was horrified … Thank goodness, a butler charges into the room. … Trump turned to me and said, “you know we’re going to have an affair, don’t you?” and Melania was approaching. … He was just a predator of women.”
