REMOVING ONLY TRUMP AND REPLACING HIM WITH JD VANCE IS LIKE SHITTING YOUR PANTS AND RUNNING HOME TO CHANGE YOUR T SHIRT 🙄🤡 THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE AMERICA IS BY REMOVING THE ENTIRE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ✊✊✊✊✊

Ukrainian intelligence services have identified Russian commanders responsible for the May 23 2024 missile terror attack in Kharkiv that killed 7 Ukrainian civilians and injured over 20. If history is any indication, they will be all liquidated in Russia in due time.

CENTCOM claims there have been no breaches of the naval blockade in the last 24 hours, but we can clearly see ships going through the gaps. It's dumb to destroy your credibility with easily proveable lies. So fucking stupid.

After months of careful consideration I’m stepping down from NAFO and Twitter. My life direction has changed and I have other battles to fight. I’ll be leaving my account up so you can all still read my history threads, but as of tomorrow, I won’t be logging in anymore. Everyone keep fighting the good fight. Support Ukraine. Support democracy. Boost fundraisers (like Toonie Tuesday) Fight russian disinformation. Fight evil wherever it stands. Thank you all so much for your support, friendship and dedication to Ukraine. You are all amazing. Keep being amazing.

Trump 2 years ago ran on "Kill FISA", the illegal spying that is very unpopular. Today, Trump is urging Congress to pass FISA, which he ran against, and continues the illegal spying on Americans.

The most f*cked up aspect of this is the "DoorDash grandma" t-shirt she's wearing, and the implications of this: I checked and this is a pre-organized PR stunt between DoorDash and the White House (they boast about it on their website: about.doordash.com/en-us/news/das…). The lady - Sharon Simmons, "a grandmother of ten" who has "completed more than 14,000 deliveries" - isn't even from DC, they brought her over from Arkansas as a prop for this. Think about just how uniquely rotten things need to be in order for this to happen. She is literally a grandmother relying on gig work because she can't afford healthcare for her husband's stage-3 cancer. She doesn't even get paid a living wage and needs to rely on tips. And as an "independent contractor," she gets no benefits, no healthcare, no retirement. Which means she is an almost perfect illustration of the failure of the American social contract on almost every level: healthcare, labor rights, retirement, wages, etc. Any decent human being looking at her story - let alone policymakers - should feel only one thing: shame. Yet DoorDash and the White House looked at this woman and saw a photo op. They flew her from Arkansas, branded her "DoorDash grandma" and used her as a mascot for a tax tweak - no tax on tips - that wouldn't even begin to cover her husband's chemo sessions. Watching the actual video of her "delivery" to Trump (pbs.org/newshour/polit…) is almost unreal. Trump opens up by saying, smiling at the camera, "who says it looks staged? It doesn't." They immediately proceed to do a joint press conference to a bunch of journalists who were conveniently standing right there. None of the questions that follow during the next 15 minutes are related to Simmons' situation who just stands there. Journalists, the President, and cameras all obsessing over culture wars and the actual war in Iran, while the walking embodiment of the country's deepest structural failures - healthcare, labor, retirement - stands silently in a corporate t-shirt, unmentioned and too uncomfortable to confront.

Sharon Simmons, the DoorDash grandma who was just part of a Trump photo op at the White House, says on Fox News that "no tax on tips" helped her because she couldn't afford her husband's cancer treatments

Congress controls the purse. That's not a suggestion. It's the Constitution. The Trump Administration moved $1.25 billion to his “Board of Peace” with no congressional authorization. I introduced the PEACE Act to put a stop to it.

This is the most important story of the year so far. ProPublica found 75 officials in key election protection roles across federal agencies have been fired, resigned, or reassigned. They've been replaced by two dozen political appointees – 10 tried to reverse Trump's 2020 loss.

Next Up: The Houthis will announce they are going to blockade the Bab al-Mendab and force all shipping to go round South Africa. Once again price of oil will skyrocket as it can end Saudi Arabia’s bypass to Asia from Yanbu. No one at the WH is thinking this through bc no one in the WH is capable of thinking.

@WhiteHouse Amazing. What was the tip for flying her to Nevada to play a happy taxpayer and now Washington DC to pretend she’s an average working person? Must be pretty lucrative.

The media now has a long history of passing off people deeply connected to GOP politics as regular everyday voters in the Trump era. It took me like 90 seconds to find out that she doesn’t live in DC and testified in Congress in favor of Trump’s tax cut bill, which feels like relevant context if she’s going to be interviewed about her views. @ABC

President Trump appeared to accept a McDonald's order from a "DoorDash Grandma" before addressing the media at the White House.

🇺🇸🇺🇦🇷🇺 HARD REALITY HITTING BOTH SIDES "Ukraine turned out to be a tough nut. Ukraine didn’t just hold, it changed the geopolitical balance, exposing a “cowardly, meaningless” Biden administration and a “corrupt” Trump camp that is now “working hand in hand with Putin." - Garry Kasparov 🇷🇺 This is battlefield reality bleeding into politics. Ukraine was expected to collapse fast. Instead it forced a prolonged conflict that dragged in supply chains, budgets, and strategic recalculations across the West. On the ground, endurance changed everything. Ukraine keeps adapting, rotating tactics, integrating drones and precision strikes. Russia is reacting, reinforcing, trying to hold lines under constant pressure. The bigger shift is perception. 🇺🇦🇷🇺 If a smaller force can resist and reshape the fight like this, it resets how power is measured globally. Not just size, but adaptability and will.

Oh shit. They shipped door dash woman to a Nevada hearing last year. She’s the maga paid prop. Everything they do is a con.
Rep. David Kustoff@RepDavidKustoff

🇺🇸 During the @WaysandMeansGOP field hearing in Nevada, I had the privilege of hearing from Sharon Simmons about how the One Big Beautiful Bill will make a real difference in her life. As a mother and caregiver, she shared how this tax relief will help her and her family. Her story is just one of thousands across America who are finding financial breathing room thanks to @HouseGOP.
