Ukrainians who live closer to the border are greeting our Defenders back from Russian captivity. Exchange days are bittersweet happy days in Ukraine.

Bruce Springsteen says he “doesn’t care at all” what Trump thinks of him, calling Trump a textbook case for the 25th Amendment and impeachment, and accusing Congress of being “cowardly” for not taking action. Do you agree with Springsteen?

How fucking rude

🚨 SENATOR MARK WARNER EXPOSES THE GREATEST HEIST IN VIRGINIA HISTORY. Republican gerrymandering didn’t just move lines on a map - it ripped healthcare away from 350,000 Virginians and snatched food off the tables of 80,000 families. “That wouldn’t have taken place… if maps weren’t changed.” One party chose their voters so they could ignore their citizens. This isn't just politics. It’s a precision-engineered assault on the working class. The strategy is clear: •Redraw the lines to protect the seat. •Secure the seat to kill the benefits. •Kill the benefits to serve the donors. When the maps are rigged, your voice is silenced, and your survival becomes a line item on a spreadsheet. Is this the "democracy" they promised us? Or is it just a managed decline while they pick-pocket the most vulnerable? The pattern is emerging, and it’s ugly. They didn't win the argument; they just rewrote the rules. YES VIRGINIA, VOTE YES: SMASH THE GERRYMANDER. TAKE VIRGINIA BACK. The maps are the weapon. Your vote is the shield.

APPLEBAUM: Russians aren't winning, despite the absence of United States. Maybe Trump imagined that if the U.S. disappeared, Ukraine would collapse. It didn't collapse. European part of NATO, Ukrainians, and other allies turned out to be very powerful. It's almost as if Trump is listening to Putin, getting information from Putin. He is not paying attention to what's actually happening on the ground. It's as if he has no information from Ukraine and from Europe at all.

Let me recap what our PM Mark Carney is saying here: “CANADA HAS MOVED ON FROM YOU DONALD TRUMP, YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT.”

McGowan nailed it. Trump inherited a deal that blocked Iran's nukes. He ripped it up for nothing. No better deal. Just chaos. He went to war for another country. He spent billions. He killed thousands. He threatened genocide. And he asking his supporters to call him a negotiator. He is a disaster

The Dream Team failed. Total shock. We sent two of our most mediocre real estate developers and a fraud. Who could’ve guessed this outcome?

Fox News points out that Trump’s claim about all the Iranian leaders being dead is undermined by the fact his administration is negotiating with Iranian leaders right now

They missed that part.

On this day 35 years ago, over 1,500 people attended the funeral of an 18-year-old boy from Indiana, United States. His pallbearers included Elton John, one of the most famous musicians in the world, and Michael Jackson. The First Lady sat in the front row. The former president wrote a tribute that ran in the national papers. His name was Ryan White. At 13, he contracted HIV through a blood transfusion to treat his haemophilia, a blood disorder that prevents clotting. Doctors gave him six months. When he tried to go back to school, parents and teachers fought to ban him. Restaurants threw away his dishes. Church members refused to shake his hand. He didn’t fight back. He educated. He went on national television and calmly explained how the virus actually worked. He changed more minds about the disease than any campaign or government programme at the time. He lived five years longer than anyone expected. He passed away one month before his high school graduation. Four months after his funeral, the United States Congress passed the Ryan White CARE Act. It became the largest federally funded programme for people living with HIV in the country’s history, and it still operates today, providing care to over 500,000 people every year.

McFaul: Trump doesn't get it. NATO is a defensive alliance. NATO didn't fight in Vietnam with us, with the French in Algeria, with the Portuguese in Angola and Mozambique, or with the UK in the Falklands. The only time they fought together was after Sep 11.

The Students at Ohio State University have been protesting against Les Wexner and want his name removed from the “Wexner Center for the Arts”,but nothing has been done so they covered the name up with a Banner that says “Redacted” like you see in the Epstein files! 🤬

I’m being censored by Elon on behalf FUCKIN’ Trump ❤️ I u see this

The Surrender Summit: Trump Sends His Son-in-Law to Lose a War ‘Vance brought his wife. Not a deputy secretary. Not a general. Not even a halfway competent mid-level State Department lifer who at least knows what the Strait of Hormuz is on a map. He brought Usha. His wife. To a war negotiation. The most consequential diplomatic moment since the end of the Cold War and JD thought, yeah, I’ll make a long weekend of it, bring the missus, see Pakistan. Pakistan received the Iranians with their Foreign Minister, their Army Chief, their National Assembly Speaker, and their Interior Minister all standing on the tarmac in full ceremonial dress. America sent the guy who wrote a book about how sad it is to be from Ohio. And then there’s Jared Kushner. Jared fucking Kushner. A man whose entire qualification for any of this is that he married into the right family, which, by the way, is also his business model, his foreign policy experience, and apparently now his military strategy. Jared has the energy of a guy who’s never been told no in his life because everyone around him was either paid not to or too scared to. He walked into the Middle East peace process last time and achieved absolutely nothing except making himself several hundred million dollars richer. So naturally Donald called him again. Jared Kushner at peace talks is like bringing your plumber to do brain surgery because he’s good with pipes and you trust him.’ ifloz.substack.com/p/the-surrende…

Mexico is passing the US. Only Americans are dumb enough to be conned into believing the US cannot afford universal healthcare. Thanks to a decree signed by President Claudia Sheinbaum on April 7, Mexico is implementing universal healthcare, beginning January 1, 2027.

This man should be fired immediately from office and held accountable. Raise your hand if you agree 🖐️

LBJ signed Fair Housing Act today 1968, barring discrimination in housing sales, rentals, mortgages based on race, creed or national origin.

Let’s not forget that two people died for this fake, fake, fake stunt.
