El-Sayed: You don't want to talk about gas prices. You don't want to talk about groceries….You want to bring up all this culture war

Watters: Do you think men should play in women’s sports?

El-Sayed: I'm running for U.S. Senate. It's insane. I'm out here trying to take on the health care crisis and big pharma, and you're asking me about who gets to play what sports

❗️Ukrainian military from the SIGNUM battalion are destroying Russian logistics in the south

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Twelve years of Russia’s attempts to break Ukrainians. Already 1,644 days of full-scale war. And every day of this struggle has a face. It is all our people who continue, day after day, to act, work, help, and do everything to ensure that Ukraine endures. I thank each and every one of you.

I thank our warriors who are fighting for Ukraine, for our cities and villages, for the right to live on our own land. Everyone who holds the front and does not let the enemy break us.

I thank each and every person who supports the front: those who raise funds, deliver what is needed, help our military, work in and develop our defense-industrial complex.

I thank our doctors who fight for lives in operating rooms every day and bring our people back from the most critical conditions. Everyone who helps our warriors recover. Our first responders, who are the first to arrive wherever the enemy brings death and destruction. Everyone who works under fire, restoring electricity, water, communications, roads, and heating.

I thank every family that perseveres, raises children, and nurtures all that is Ukrainian. All our teachers who continue to educate and support our children under difficult conditions. Our children, who are stronger than all the evil Russia brings upon us.

Everyone who refuses to give up, who helps, defends, heals, saves lives, works, and supports others – this is our Ukrainian strength. Our resilience is built on the daily efforts of millions of people like these. And it is thanks to you that Ukraine lives, fights, and will endure. Thank you!

Glory to our people!
Glory to Ukraine!

Weird how Trump knew nothing about Project 2025 but somehow has implemented almost 85% of it.

Greg Abbott lies and after 30-years in office, he’s not even good at it.

[Trump Lie Tracker (Commentary Account) @MAGALieTracker]

BREAKING: Howard Lutnick tries to justify tariffs on Canada by absurdly claiming that Canada is hostile toward unions. 30% of Canadian workers belong to a union. Only 10% do in America. They either don’t know what they are talking about or they are lying.

[cinesthetic. @TheCinesthetic]

Kathie Lee Gifford once asked Martin Short if he was “still in love,” unaware his wife had died a year earlier.

Short simply replied, “Madly in love.” He said he didn’t correct her to spare her the embarrassment, adding that the answer was still true

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

Dear MAGA,

Did Trump bring back steel like he promised in 2016?

What happened to lower gas prices?

Why are they still withholding 3 million Epstein files?
(Is that the deep state still?)

What happened to no new wars?

Why do like being lied to?

All 6 conservative Supreme Court Justices voted to allow the Trump administration to limit mail-in ballots ahead of the midterms.

Trump himself voted by mail-in ballot in the 2026 midterms.

There's exactly one person to blame when electricity bills go up: Donald Trump.

He’s treating our allies as enemies. And American families continue to suffer because of it.
