Independent. We need politicians NOT under the influence of billionaires who believe and ACT on facts and science. The two party system has failed us.

Ukraine was once again unable to intercept a single incoming Russian missile overnight. Ukrainian officials blame another delayed shipment of Patriot interceptors.

Our bill to stop private equity from buying up homes is now law.
Despite Donald Trump's refusal to sign it, his Administration must now implement it.
We'll be watching closely to ensure it's done right.
The Treasury Department on Thursday proposed rules on new restrictions on large investors buying single-family homes, one of the first moves in the federal government to implement the bipartisan housing package that passed over the summer. news.bloombergtax.com/daily-…

The Washington Post reports that ten current and former Defense Department officials, across the political spectrum, have been quietly meeting with leaders in at least ten states to prepare for Trump refusing to accept the midterm results.
That is where we are now: national security officials defending American elections from an American president.

They're lying about the job numbers
They're lying about the inflation numbers
They're lying about the dead and wounded in Iran
They'll lie about anything and the American people are not buying their bullshit anymore

Funny how Republicans have spent months telling you how great their tax cuts are, but suddenly the IRS data showing who actually benefited is months late.
This information was supposed to be released in July.
But here we are, three weeks out from an election and the Trump Administration still won’t release it.
If the numbers are really as great as they keep telling us, why won’t they release them?
Oh wait, I know. Because they know exactly what it shows: the tax cuts disproportionately benefited BILLIONAIRES and GIANT CORPORATIONS, not you.
And Republicans paid for them by ripping away healthcare and food assistance from hungry families and exploding the deficit.
That was not a tax cut for working people. It was a giveaway to the wealthiest people in the country, paid for by everyone else.

This is going to fall apart. They’re trying to intimidate voters.
Trump’s DOJ is accusing states of registering thousands of noncitizens to vote. There’s just one problem. Their own evidence is blowing up in their faces.
In Nevada, they claimed 16,000 noncitizens were registered. Then they produced just 185 names. Nevada checked every single one. All 185 were U.S. citizens.
California is already finding similar problems, including people born right here in America.

The State Department has asked some foreign service officials up for promotion who they voted for in the 2016, 2020 and 2024 presidential elections, raising concerns the agency is violating a federal law that bars politicized personnel decisions within the nonpartisan ranks.

Elon Musk, an African immigrant and private individual, has hijacked U.S. foreign policy. He sabotaged American defence assistance provided to Ukrainian partners and violated binding inter-state agreements. Musk has to be prosecuted for his crimes and treason.

SCOOP: The State Dept has started asking career diplomats up for promotion if they voted for Trump in 16, 20, 24.
Federal law prohibits politically based hiring for career staff.
State tells @washingtonsun it's screening for "fidelity" and execution of the president's vision👇

Overnight, Russia attacked Ukraine with "humanitarian" ballistic missiles, "humanitarian" cluster munitions, and "humanitarian" drones.
In Kyiv, an "Epicentr" store in Pochaina was destroyed by the overnight strikes.

Wondering why Trump's labor department keeps telling you the jobs market is going gangbusters but by all appearences its NOT?
Trump admin is lying.
Trump won’t survive discovery.
He will drop the lawsuit before that happens.

When first reported, 2025’s jobs reports added up to 1.2 million new jobs.
After revisions, the economy added just 116,000 — 90% less.
salty seadude 🇺🇸Defend Democracy & Environment retweeted
Whoa. The U.S. added 90% fewer jobs in 2025 than originally reported.
That’s not a rounding error. That’s a massive difference between the economy Americans were told we had and the one we actually had.
