@DemocraticWins “Legislative games”, while Trump & GOP have their
‘Stock Brokers’ cell numbers on speed dial, every MAGA
moment of chaos is a distraction from the looting of America!

[The Husky @Mr_Husky1]

"Circa early 2018, somewhere in the quiet of his beloved Cornville, Arizona ranch, John McCain — living with the knowledge that his days were growing shorter — made a decision that was so perfectly, mischievously, achingly him that it made the whole country smile through their tears when they finally heard about it: he picked up the phone and called Barack Obama, the man who had defeated him for the presidency a decade earlier, and asked him to speak at his funeral. Obama later said that when that call came, he felt 'sadness and also a certain surprise' — and then, with the warmth that defined him, he recognized exactly what McCain was doing, telling mourners at the Washington National Cathedral on September 1, 2018 that the invitation showed McCain's 'irreverence, his sense of humor, a little bit of a mischievous streak' — because, as Obama put it to a cathedral that erupted in laughter through their grief, 'what better way to get a last laugh than to make George and I say nice things about him to a national audience?' It was John McCain's final act of political theater, and it was genius — choosing the two men who had each defeated him for the presidency to stand before the nation and celebrate his life, sending a message louder than any speech he could have given himself: that in America, rivalry and respect are not opposites, that the man you run against can still be the man you trust with your legacy, and that decency is not weakness but the most durable form of strength. Obama stood at that altar and told the packed cathedral that McCain had 'made this country better,' that he had made Obama a better president, and that when all was said and done, despite every disagreement, 'we never doubted the other man's sincerity or the other man's patriotism' — and in the front pew, Cindy McCain wept, because her husband had arranged, from the very edge of his life, one last beautiful lesson in what it means to be an American.

Not enough people are talking about this.

A Florida airport was renamed after Donald Trump. He walked away with the trademark, the licensing rights, and a deal that lets him profit off every piece of merchandise sold there.

But the story of how he got it is even worse.

County staff told commissioners that rejecting the name change would put state transportation funding at risk. DeSantis has already removed state attorneys and school board members who dared to cross him. That is the reality the Democratic commissioner who cast the deciding vote was living in when she made her choice: hand Donald Trump control of a public airport or watch Florida Republicans strip funding from the very people she was elected to represent.

That is absolutely insane.

Florida Republicans handed Trump a money machine and called it a naming rights deal, and the people of Palm Beach County never got a say in any of it.

russia bombed Kyiv's sleeping civilians for five hours. russia wants to terrorise a peaceful population into submission.

Why do we let them?

Close the skies. Use their assets to arm Ukraine. Stop buying their energy. Isolate them from the world. Come on

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

.@DAGToddBlanche, room full of Epstein survivors stood up during my line of questioning of your former boss to confirm that they have wanted to give information to the DOJ but have been denied and their lawyers ignored. In fact Ms. Bondi said she’d follow up with them, but that never happened.

I understand you view your job as the people’s lawyer to be a continuation of your previous job as the President’s personal attorney, but is there a reason you continue to stonewall them other than covering up for Trump?

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Holy sh*t. Thomas Massie says he’s going to start publicly naming billionaires implicated in the Epstein files because Trump’s DOJ refuses to convict.

More courage than the rest of the GOP has combined.

This coffee shop in Kyiv opened yesterday, then got hit by a russian air strike just hours later.

Today, they're still open and people in Kyiv are lining up to buy a coffee to support them, stepping over debris and broken glass on the way in.

FYI, the coffee is excellent 🇺🇦

[Morgan J. Freeman @mjfree]

A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.

Lets make this viral again 👇

For all those who support Trump's pardons and say you

Ukrainian ambassador to the UN @MelnykAndrij:

I'm not sure that I will have any appetite to visit Moscow. Even when Russia is defeated, even when and after Putin's regime has collapsed, even after Russia has paid war reparations, even when the next government in Russia were to beg on its kneels for an apology, even after all the Russian war criminals will be sentenced, there will be no reconciliation between Ukraine and Russia for decades, maybe for centuries.

I will even refuse to visit Moscow as a member of the Ukraine delegation that will travel to Russia to witness Russia's signature of its declaration of capitulation.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Since last night, first responders and all necessary services have been working wherever needed. As of now, at least 83 people have been confirmed injured since midnight. Tragically, there are fatalities. My condolences to the families and loved ones.

It was a heavy attack – 90 missiles of various types, many of them ballistic missiles – 36 in total. There were 600 drones. Unfortunately, not all of the ballistic missiles were intercepted – the largest number of hits was in Kyiv. Kyiv was the primary target of this Russian attack.

Putin can’t even pronounce the word “hurrah” clearly anymore – slurs and mumbles – yet he is still vanquishing residential buildings with his missiles. Launched three Russian missiles against a water supply facility. Burned down a market. Damaged dozens of residential buildings. Hit several ordinary schools. Launched his “Oreshnik” against Bila Tserkva. They really are unhinged.

It is important that this does not pass without consequences for Russia. Today, everyone in the world who will not stay silent and chooses to help Ukraine is a defender of life. It is critically important to continue working to secure air defense for Ukraine, especially anti-ballistic capabilities.

We are doing our best to achieve peace and protect people – everything. It is important that Ukraine is not alone. Decisions are needed – from the United States, from Europe and others – to make that old “Oreshnik” in Moscow finally utter the word “peace.”

Khanna: "This is a Dred Scott court. They have engaged in the fastest rollback of Black political rights since Rutherford Hayes ended Reconstruction in 1877. One-third of African American seats in the Congress are being threatened. We are not speaking up strongly enough against a court that is rolling back civil rights."

[Kaja Kallas @kajakallas]

Russia hit a dead-end on the battlefield, so it terrorizes Ukraine with deliberate strikes on city centres.

These are abhorrent acts of terror meant to kill as many civilians as possible.

Moscow reportedly using Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missiles – systems designed to carry nuclear warheads – is a political scare-tactic and reckless nuclear-brinkmanship.

Next week, EU Foreign Ministers will discuss how to dial up the international pressure on Russia.

"Russia's aggression has violated the most basic principles of international law and the European security order.
We cannot accept that force replaces law in determining borders
Italy will continue to stand with Ukraine in military, financial, and humanitarian support, because defending Ukraine means defending freedom and democracy"

Thank you, Italy🫡

Can someone explain to me why the so called civilized world can't bring itself together to stop russia from bombing the biggest country in Europe after over 4 years of full-scale war? Wtf is more important than stopping this?
