It’s interesting that Trump is especially interested in rigging the election in Alaska. At exactly the moment when he is trying to give Alaska’s natural resources to Russia.

This is the President of the United States, spewing more garbage: “If Abdul and the Democrats win, they will open the floodgates and invite hordes of jihadis to our shores, creating a nightmare of violence and terror until you cannot even have a Christmas.”
I’M EMBARRASSED.

1/3 „So hat es die CDU geschafft, die Migrationsfrage („Merkel ist schuld“) maßlos aufzubauschen, um die AfD zu „halbieren“, mit dem Effekt der eigenen Halbierung und der Verdoppelung der Blau-Braunen auch im Westen der Republik…2/3

Don't be ridiculous. You sound like Trump. Next you'll be saying "They're eating the pets!"

meanwhile Russian missiles continue to kill Ukrainian civilians and destroy energy infrastructure, every day
Kushner "told Zelensky that he should pause the strikes because he and U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff were dedicating a lot of time, energy, and jet fuel to mediating with Moscow...A 30-day pause on refineries would be a way for Ukraine to show gratitude"

And to the maga nasties out here who are suggesting I am not an American since I also have a Czech citizenship and therefore I voted illegally here in Florida. I got news for you. Melania trump is also a dual citizen- of US and Slovenia.
So yes-
I can vote, I have voted and will be voting democratic as long the GOP remains a party of pedophile and rapist protectors. Among other things.

Norway is one of the most democratic and prosperous countries on Earth.
Free health care
Free college
Strong democracy
Free press
Trump says “Norway sucks” and is a “shithouse country” because it won’t give him the Nobel Prize.
Insane. We have a mentally unbalanced president.

Otro chiste facha: Bolsonaro, al borde del llanto, dice que va a impugnar las elecciones porque se votó demasiado, dos horas más que lo previsto.
La derecha contra el "exceso de democracia".
Como en 2022, el bolsonarismo no acepta la derrota. Entonces fue el padre, Jair Bolsonaro, y ahora, el hijo Flávio, ambos vencidos en las urnas por Lula. “Lo que ha sucedido es increíble, no es normal, nunca había pasado nada así en la historia de Brasil” social.elpais.com/sed69

Congratulations, President @LulaOficial, on your re-election in Brazil.
The relationship between Canada and Brazil has flourished under our partnership. Let’s seize this opportunity to make it even stronger, together — to create major new trade opportunities, protect the environment, and build greater prosperity for both our peoples.

¿Estamos todos locos? ¿Somos todos estúpidos?
¿De verdad el presidente de la Nación puede amenazar de muerte a cinco ciudadanos y nadie hace nada?
¿No es un gran escándalo, no es tapa de los diarios, no hay gente en la calle?
¿Tan hechos mierda estamos?

My take: Putin gave up nothing by releasing a 74-year-old American held as a pawn for this type of moment. Putin is not a humanitarian, despite how Mr Witkoff addressed him. And whereas President Trump says he gave up nothing for Stephen Hubbard's release, you will hear all the experts correctly say that he did: busting his own sanctions for a diesel deal with Putin that could put $4 billion into his war chest; inviting Putin to the G20; and dumping Putin's victim, Ukraine, face down in the mud, as it tries to defend its sovereignty and its freedom. You’ve heard the historians call all this appeasement, going against America's own democratic values.

There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal U.S. Senator.

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

In what world is Putin a "humanitarian?” He's assassinated political rivals and journalists, bombed hospitals, and started a war that has intentionally killed tens of thousands of innocent people, including women and children. He's a war criminal.

This has been Putin's dream for years: That his country, with GDP per capita lower than Poland, unable to conquer Donbas since 2014, will be treated as an equal to the US and China.
