All those critiquing Kekius Maximus (rightly so) should begin by questioning those calling him a “genius” or even a “tech bro”. He invented NONE of the TECH. Just bought stuff at the right time. More marketing than science. He’s benefitted by billions of government dollars that he

Today, President Trump will issue a series of Executive Orders that deny the climate emergency facing our country in favor of a phony “energy emergency”. These performative acts show the pervasive influence that the fossil fuel industry will have in the United States over the

Tonight, the President announced pardons and commutations of sentences for those who violently attacked the Capitol and law enforcement officers on January 6th. The President's actions are an outrageous insult to our justice system and the heroes who suffered physical scars and

I used to say Trump’s greatest legacy is the destruction of truth. I stand corrected. Trump’s greatest legacy is convincing the American people not to care. I mean, think about it. Trump is the only presidential candidate in American history to lose an election and refuse to

Maybe we should abolish Congress. They have already abdicated their constitutional duties over power of the purse & "regulat[ing] Commerce with foreign Nations" (tariffs) If lawmakers are not going to perform their most basic constitutional functions, what are we paying them for?

Some quick math: Raising $1T for deficit reduction requires about $4T in extra GDP (20% of GDP in revenue plus reduced income-related programs). That is 4T / 30T in current GDP = an extra 13% of GDP. So instead of a 2% growth rate would need about a 15% growth rate.

Admiration by so many Republicans for Putin--a brutal dictator with no respect for human life, individual liberties, or private property, who hates America -- is one of the most shocking developments of my life. Never saw that coming.

Trump demands Zelensky hold elections. Shouldn’t he demand that Putin does the same since he’s been dictator for 25 years. apple.news/Ag6JRxR_IS_qUc…

Let us hear from all the Republican Senators who are okay with this, who are happy about Trump throwing American allies and interests under a Russian bus for nothing.

Orban, Fico, Farage, Le Pen, AfD, all taking Russian money and proposing pro-Kremlin policies. You believe Trump is different, just happens to admire Putin so much he's destroying the Atlantic alliance for nothing? To save 5% of the DoD budget that went to Ukraine? No.

Trump’s attack on US institutions, even if fully expected, is dispiriting, discombobulating and dangerous. In this very difficult time, we have to remember one thing: This is not normal, and it should not be normalized. If, as I hope, the US democracy survives and (somehow)

Three years of resistance. Three years of gratitude. Three years of absolute heroism of Ukrainians. I am proud of Ukraine! I thank everyone who defends and supports it. Everyone who works for Ukraine. And may the memory of all those who gave their lives for our state and people

Oswald Mosley knocked to the ground by anti-fascists in Manchester on July 29, 1962. He was escorted away by police while being pelted with eggs and stones.

The Trump family has increased its wealth by 3 billion dollars in just 3 months.

Yes, we do. nytimes.com/2025/06/12/ups…

To me, this is the most remarkable thing about global health: With a relatively small amount of money, you can do a great deal of good for a great many people. This is money well spent, and we should go back to spending it—now.
