Graham Platner: “We have watched the largest transfer of wealth from the working class to the ruling class in the history of this nation. In 1990, there were fewer than 80 billionaires in the US. Today there are over 900. When you look around, do you see a state of Maine that is 10x wealthier? Do we have 10x the schools? 10x the hospitals? No. In fact, we have less. Fewer schools, fewer hospitals. There is no coincidence that in the time that has happened we have seen the existence of people like Elon Musk occur”

There has never been a war in history where 80% of the country has been destroyed, 100% of the population displaced, and 50% of the deaths children.

BREAKING: Hunter Biden enrages MAGA by penning a brilliant list of things that “most Americans agree on” and it’s as hilarious as it is brutal for Trump.

How many of these do YOU agree with?

Just wait till you get to the Epstein jab…

“Groceries cost too much,” the former President’s son wrote on X.

“Tariffs suck and make no sense.”

“Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.”

“The debt is a mess.”

“The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.”

“Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.”

“Americans are exhausted.”

“AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.”

“Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.”

“Canadians are super fucking cool.”

“Mexicans are chill.”

“Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.”

“Good neighbors are a blessing.”

“Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.”

“We all question, are we alone in the universe?”

We all fuck up along the way.

“Epstein didn’t hang himself.”

“The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.”

“The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!”

“Things we’re told to fight about: Me. Laptop. Vaccines. Transgenders in sports. Pronouns.”

“That’s the joke,” he concluded.

Hunter has been increasingly active on social media lately. He went viral for dismantling a MAGA cultist who absurdly accused his father of “faking” his bone cancer. In another witty exchange, he batted down a Republican’s attempt to shame him for his past drug abuse, causing her to turn empathetic and wish him well. He’s so good at this some have begun half-jokingly referring to him as the “MAGA whisperer.”

What would you add to Hunter’s list?

Please ❤️ and share if you’re a fan if Hunter!

Amnesty has an Urgent Action on behalf of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya. Israel must release him now. Why oh why such cruelty? Why oh why those with the power to hold Israel authorities accountable for their cruelty failing over and over?

Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya should be with his loved ones, and caring for the many many people in need of his skills. The last place where he should be is solitary confinement.

Crowds in Albania's capital, Tirana, have gathered for a sixth day to protest plans for a resort on the country's Adriatic coast that has been backed by Jared Kushner, President Trump's son-in-law.

Protesters tell CBS News' @EmmetlyonsCBS that they are looking for more transparency from their government and are speaking up to protect the nature —especially the pink flamingos of that region, which has historically been protected from developments.

Section 224, which has been publicly endorsed by Netanyahu, would move Israel from being a major recipient of U.S. support to becoming deeply embedded within America’s defense technology and industrial base.

The concern is not aid. The concern is integration. Americans are rightfully concerned.

🔴 CALLED OUT: United States Congressman Thomas Massie pushes Russian Propaganda lies on behalf of the Kremlin terror regime.
"I just voted against the Ukraine Support Act tonight. It sends over $9 billion of your dollars overseas, and includes $250 million for Radio Free Europe, a Cold War relic that benefits no American."
—US Congressman Thomas Massie
Thomas Massie and the 194 Republicans who voted against the Ukraine Support Act performed on behalf of the Russian terror regime.
1. Radio Free Europe is an essential.
It is widely known to benefit Americans as well as all of humanity. It is Vladimir Putin who advocates against Radio Free Europe because Radio Free Europe refuses to push Russian Propaganda.
History and Mission – Cold War Origins: Established in the early 1950s, RFE and Radio Liberty (RL) were initially backed by the CIA. They were designed to act as "surrogate broadcasters," providing trustworthy news to audiences behind the Iron Curtain to counter Soviet state propaganda.
Core Mission: RFE/RL promotes democratic values by reaching audiences where press freedom is heavily restricted or banned altogether.
Current Operations: Broadcasting in 27 languages, the organization reaches approximately 47 million people weekly across regions like Russia, Ukraine, Iran, and Afghanistan.
source: Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty
Radio Free Europe reaches Russian audiences who are brainwashed by Russian Propaganda and where Putin heavily censors media.
The enemy Russia was thrilled when President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance cut funding to Radio Free Europe.
The most essential part of Radio Free Europe is its unwavering defense of countering Russian Propagandist lies.
This is an odd time in America — where the highest government officers act as an arm of the Kremlin in promotion of Russian Propaganda.
🔴 Thomas Massie and the 194 House Republicans who voted against the Ukraine Support Act — their vote says that they are Russian Propagandists.
A vote against Ukraine is a vote for Russia
By voting with Russia, Thomas Massie and the 194 GOP members without moral compass — voted with evil.
– Russia is the enemy of the United States.
– Thomas Massie supports the enemy.
– Thomas Massie supports war crimes.
– Any effort to stifle Radio Free Europe is an effort to bolster the Russian war crimes machine
🔴 In my opinion, Thomas Massie and the 194 Republicans lost in Moscow's rectum — are traitors to the United States, to Europe, to Ukraine, to Democracy and Humanity.
2. Massie's claim, "sends over $9 billion of your dollars overseas" is glaringly misleading.
$8 billion is provided in LOANS.
"The measure passed late on June 4 authorizes more than $1 billion in assistance for Ukraine, up to $8 billion in military financing loans, support for reconstruction efforts, aid to Baltic allies."
source: Radio Free Europe
Question: If Donald Trump, JD Vance, Thomas Massie and the 194 Republicans who voted against the Ukraine Support Act were working directly for Vladimir Putin — how would things be any different?
Answer: Nothing would be different.
The Trump Administration and 194 Republicans perform exactly as Vladimir Putin wants them to.
Worth Repeating:
🔴 In my opinion, Thomas Massie and the 194 Republicans lost in Moscow's rectum — are traitors to the United States, to Europe, to Ukraine, to Democracy and Humanity.

The screwworm program wasn't charity, it was a $10 million fence that kept a billion-dollar problem from eating our own livestock alive. That's the thing with most USAID funding: it looks like "aid," but it's really cheap self-defense. Solve a problem there, and it never lands on our doorstep. But sure, let a bunch of guys who can't define DEI without Googling take a chainsaw to it. They didn't stop to ask, "Will this cut hurt us too?" Unless that's the point, burn it all down and call it efficiency.

As usual our inept agriculture secretary, blaming the Biden administration as usual, instead of offering a solution to the problem they created.

Texan here

A screwworm infestation is a nightmare for cattle, causing horrific wounds and economic devastation. For Texas, the situation has escalated dramatically in the last 24 hours with the first confirmed case of New World Screwworm (NWS) in over 60 years! This could have been avoided!

Infested animal can kill a cow in less than two weeks.

Treatment is extremely difficult and time-consuming, requiring the painful removal of every visible larva and deep disinfection of the wound. Ranchers no longer have much experience with this labor-intensive process, and there is currently no approved pharmaceutical treatment to make it easier.

This has triggered a massive economic threat. The USDA estimates that a widespread outbreak would drain an astonishing $1.8 billion from the Texas economy alone in livestock deaths, labor, and medication expenses.

How will this affect you? Tightening supplies will drive already high beef prices higher.

New in PN: Trump's cognitive impairment endangers us all

"No one in the administration has offered a remotely plausible explanation for Trump’s various physical ailments, and any questions about his clear cognitive challenges — the reading flubs, obvious confusion, strange slurring, forgetting what he was talking about, flitting from one subject to another for seemingly no reason — are met by the White House with disdain, denial, mockery, and lies." https://t.co/COXsN10Bsk

The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.

The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.

Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.

If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.
