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 in Afghanistan 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."

They just rescued 163 kidnapped kids in underground cages with duct tape over their mouths from a human trafficking ring in Florida and it hasn’t been on the news once because it’s 3 white maga Christian dudes that ran it. Take all the time you need with that one

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

Our country is being robbed of its humanity.

BREAKING: This U.S. born citizen was deported to Mexico in April.

During a traffic stop, Brian Morales told immigration officers that he was born in Colorado, and offered to show his birth certificate. They refused to listen and deported him.

Today, he’s back in Texas.

WORTH REPEATING:

Don’t forget that Trump is increasing your Medicare premiums in 2027, AFTER the election, because he knows his voters are fucking stupid.

Michigan Sen. candidate @AbdulElSayed on the Trump-Canada trade war: "So if you're starting a trade war with Canada is cause you're the asshole."

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

BREAKING: trump is REFUSING to attend the 9/11 memorial because he is NOT permitted to give a speech.

Just when you thought he couldn't be a bigger, more selfish shithead.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

A UAE investor secretly gave Trump $187 million and his top Middle East envoy $31 million. And then Trump gave that investor access to sensitive defense technology that broke decades of national security precedent.

Brazen, open corruption. And we shouldn't pretend it's normal.

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

First this platform allows people to threaten to rape and kill me and assassinate me without any consequences. Didn't even suspend or remove the accounts.

Now they are deliberately throttling my political videos, suppressing facts, suppressing truth. Censorship.

This is why they want to own all the social platforms so they can CONTROL the conversation. It's wrong and disgusting.

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

BREAKING: An unearthed video shows Former Defense Secretary Esper saying Trump wanted to shoot protesters. “Can’t you just shoot them?” This is why our military needs the reminder about unlawful orders.

Share this widely.

[Congressman Robert Garcia @RepRobertGarcia]

The Oversight Committee’s subpoena of the Epstein files requires the DOJ to turn over documents—regardless of any federal investigations.

Even if Pam Bondi tries to slow down the bill passed by Congress, she CAN’T do the same on our subpoena.

Release the files, NOW.

[Christopher Webb @cwebbonline]

Whoa, this is wild.

Either Thune played Johnson or Johnson tried to play us and failed. Either way, Johnson looks like a fool and Trump has lost his grip on Congress.

@Lawrence just blew it open 🔥

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨HOLY F*CKING SHIT: After James Comer spread lies about Hakeem Jeffries soliciting donations from Epstein, Joe Gallina uncovered a 2013 email from Jared Kushner’s New York Observer inviting Epstein to a posh event personally attended by Donald Trump.

This is pure projection.

[Anonymous @OpDeathEaters]

New Mexico Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury reported that she reviewed the Epstein files and Donald Trump is named repeatedly and is tagged in a discussion of his rape of at least one 13 year old child. #OpDeathEaters

@PistolMamaMary @KOB4 So, you don’t want American made cars? I thought bringing back American products was why you liked tariffs. Isn’t that what you just said? Automotive industry jobs. Here. Not imported

[Caitlin Padilla @tater282]

@RenaeNeely1 @ELE_Network @krassenstein Yes, it’s a standard process. They are literally in charge of the government and the quality of life for Americans. Wouldn’t you want them to be?
