America is back fighting a war we already won because Iran shot down an Apache helicopter with a military we already destroyed, and it's all over nukes they never had and a strait that was wide open.
Is that about right?
Nem uma única bola rolou no gramado até agora e este é o quadro da COPA 2026:
• As equipes do Senegal e do Uzbequistão foram tratadas na chegada como criminosos, com buscas completas em seus orifícios.
• O melhor árbitro da África foi enviado de volta à Somália, apesar de seu passaporte diplomático.
• O Fotógrafo da equipe do Iraque foi impedido de entrar mesmo com visto válido.
• Foi negada a entrada nos EUA de 90% dos fãs marroquinos com ingressos já adquiridos.
• Foram recusados vistos a 14 membros da equipe de apoio do Irã.
• Foi negada a entrada no país do principal atacante da Suíça, o camaronês Breel Embolo. A equipe viajou sem ele. Após a forte repercussão, o visto foi enfim concedido.
• A equipe iraniana, cujos jogos serão todos nos EUA, foi proibida de pernoitar no país. Imediatamente a após cada partida, os atletas voarão de volta ao México, onde se hospedam.
- Qual é o sentido de sediar a Copa do Mundo se não pretendem que o MUNDO faça parte dela???
If the governments job isn’t to secure even basic shit like clean drinking water for its citizens, what’s its actual purpose?! THIS IS WHAT WE WANT OUR TAXES PAYING FOR
In 2016, Trump was asked why he had repeatedly attacked the press.
His answer:
“I do it to discredit you all and demean you all so that when you write negative stories about me, no one will believe you.”
When someone tells you exactly who they are and exactly what they’re doing, pay attention. Believe them.
So… Iran, a country whose military we’ve “destroyed”, was able to shoot down one of our Apache helicopters, during a “ceasefire”, in the middle of a war that isn’t a war, which is “two days” away from ending?
Social Security does not add to the national debt. It is even prohibited by law from borrowing money.
Politicians who talk about cutting or changing Social Security to address the debt are lying to you.
Here is how Social Security funding works:
Social Security is funded by payroll taxes. When more money comes in from payroll taxes than benefits that need to be paid out, Social Security is obligated to invest the surplus in Treasuries.
Treasuries are bonds. Governments and corporations issue bonds to generate money. A bond is a loan from the purchaser to the issuer.
A bond has a principal, a maturity date, and an interest rate. The principal is the value of the bond. When you buy a bond, you pay the principal. When the bond reaches its maturity date, the issuer is required to pay the principal back to the holder. The interest rate is the amount the issuer pays to the bondholder.
It is similar to how, when you take out a 30-year mortgage, you agree to a repayment schedule and to pay interest until the loan is repaid.
As Treasuries mature, if Social Security doesn't need that extra money, it rolls them over by buying new Treasuries.
When Social Security needs more money to cover benefits, it cashes out Treasuries.
The federal government has had a deficit for the past 25 years. This means that when it has to meet its obligations, it needs to borrow money.
This is how people claim that Social Security adds to the debt. That is ridiculous.
Companies and countries buy US Treasuries. You and I can buy them. Anyone holding a Treasury when it matures isn't increasing the debt. The government’s unbalanced budget is causing the debt.
Cutting Social Security will do nothing to get the US out of debt, but it would create hardship for millions of Americans.
Social Security currently has a shortfall, primarily because people are living longer and the large Boomer generation is retiring. In 1960, there were 5.1 people paying into Social Security. Today, there are only 2.7. The trust fund from past surpluses is keeping it afloat, but it is running out.
The easiest way to address the shortfall is to remove the tax cap on Social Security. Benefits do not have to be increased to do this. This is exactly what was done for Medicare in 1993. The tax cap was removed, and benefits weren't increased to better fund the program.
It is important to understand this one thing: No Republicans actually believe there was fraud in California's voting.
This is all a pretext to sabotage the November elections.
If you think California is taking a while to count votes, wait until you hear how long the Trump Administration is taking to release the Epstein files…
Fascism does not arrive saying “I am fascism.” It arrives saying “law and order,” “border security,” “anti-woke,” “election integrity,” and “national emergency.”
The man running the agency responsible for 340 million Americans' health arrives at 10am, leaves by 4pm, skips his own division chief meetings, and when he does show up - scrolls his phone and gets described by colleagues as "checked out."
Ebola is spreading. Six Americans already exposed. He has not briefed himself with CDC scientists. His response to a reporter asking if he was worried: "Yeah, we're working on it."
The CDC is being run by a health economist with no public health experience who already has another full-time job running NIH. Half of the 27 NIH institutes have no permanent director. The top FDA drug regulator got fired in May - Kennedy found out after it happened.
When measles killed two children in Texas, the CDC official leading the response asked repeatedly to brief Kennedy. He was rebuffed every time.
The person actually running HHS operations is a longtime personal adviser whose policy spreadsheet - more than 50 items - is hidden from the department's own policy team. When Kennedy gets asked a question, his standing answer is "just run that by Stefanie."
This is not a management philosophy. This is a vacancy wearing a title.
CNN = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
CBS = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
FOX = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
WaPo = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
WSJ = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
Ah yes, tell me more about how the mainstream media is “far left.”
If Joe Biden had been stuffing his face with pizza and french fries at a basketball game while one of our Apache helicopters was being shot down in a war he started, Fox “News” would be calling for his head.
Republican-appointed judge: “The Court is not aware of another occasion in the history of the United States in which a federal court has had to threaten contempt — again and again and again — to force the United States government to comply with court orders.”
So let me get this straight:
When immigrants take jobs, it’s a national crisis.
When AI takes jobs, it’s innovation.
Can someone explain why we’re supposed to fear people willing to work, but celebrate technology designed to replace workers?
I’ll say it again, I don’t know how we can function as a country when half of the voters think a Republican losing the mayoral race in LA is evidence of a conspiracy or widespread corruption.
Would anybody on the left respond this way if e.g. AOC lost the gubernatorial race in Oklahoma?
We can’t function in a world where one of the major parties thinks elections are only legitimate when they win.
Golden Rule of MAGA Era:
- If we win: Election was clean and fair.
- If we lose: election was stolen riddled with fraud that we can’t prove but we know happened.
