Let’s use the term other than that for the men’s team. Because it’s so associated with women of course. Can’t we find something more appropriate, I had suggested at one point, given Trump‘s love of golf, we call weak men like that “ball washers”.
The NY Times is using the "above the fold" of their paper to bring more of Trump's Epstein association to light, and other media are then picking up on it, bringing more exposure. Hopefully, that will help accelerate things.
The thing with "flooding the zone" is that your "opponent" becomes inured to the tactic and accustomed to dealing with multiple issues at once. This Iran War isn't likely to pull focus the way it once would have. We recognize it for the stunt that it is. This doesn't mean we're not outraged by it, just that we have expanded our capacity to be outraged by many things at once.
Release the EPSTEIN FILES - Justice for the victims!!
I love this comment. It describes a sort of citizen multi-tasking we've been able to take on as a result of the horrors thrown our way. We will keep fighting on all fronts!
Support independent and citizen journalism. Support the ACLU and Public Citizen. Protect our immigrant neighbors. Subpoena Trump and Lutnik.
Absolutely agree. We are stronger because we realize what is going on with the loser regime. I feel for the soldiers and their families as some will die because of this
Simply a cover for his Epstein Files. He's a sick twisted SOB. And sorry not sorry Screw Netanyahn he's the reason Taco is doing this BS. This pisses me off. IF we could just take care of America for one damn minute. But no we keep sticking our nose in other Countries . Why not take care of our problems? No the Rich White Men need more money. War is never the answer!
Since women's hockey became an Olympic sport, the US women's team has won 8 medals. During that same period of time, the US men's team has won 3 medals. I tire of men getting all the glory, especially incompetent misogynists.
Capitol police targeted Aliya Rahman. The adminstration is aware of her communication skills and is afraid of her and Capitol police were ready to remove her. The administration wants to silence her. She is brave and they are cowards.
The question on everyone’s mind is: “Why now?”, especially when negotiations appeared promising.
It is becoming painstakingly clear that there is an obvious pattern of Trump threatening to go to war or actually going to war against foreign countries or on the high seas whenever he suffers a devastating public humiliation.
Trump’s most recent and glaring personal humiliation was the Supreme Court’s declaration that Trump’s favorite weapon with which he sought to rule the world by extortionate tariffs was totally illegal .
The act of taking our country to war to distract the public from his heinous acts or public humiliations was Trump’s brainstorm right after his public humiliation on June 14 when the draft dodger-in-chief got the military parade he deserved.
June 14, 2025 was billed as the military parade to end all parades, which would lead to the glorification of Donald Trump on his 79th birthday as The Master of the Universe, which would even transcend his claim that he “runs the country and the world”.
As we all know, the line of disheveled soldiers slovenly marching out of step with a proud display of indifference was a huge fiasco, and a total humiliation to Trump.
So was it then a mere coincidence that at that very moment, he just happened to do a quick turn-around, reject the assessment of his own intelligence organizations and tell Iran and the world that unless Iran agrees to “unconditional surrender”, the U.S. would join in Israel’s attack on Iran, which is exactly what Trump ordered?
Did it work? You bet it did.
Trump’s sudden bombing of Iran took the entire world’s attention off the egg on Trump’s face and onto the question of whether he was leading us into a nuclear war.
Since then, a long list of domestic political setbacks for Trump and his menagerie of political clowns and servile politicians became increasingly interspersed with the invasion of Venezuela, doggedly blowing up and murdering over 100 smugglers on the high seas, whom Trump renamed as “narco-terrorists to make them sound threatening, regardless of whether women or children were on board, and sending our paratroopers into Nigeria by portraying himself as the Last Great Crusader leading a Holy War against the infidels who were allegedly persecuting Christians in Nigeria.
Trump’s unilateral stunt in taking our country to war again with Iran without the consent of Congress, worked for Trump in the past, so he’s now betting the ranch that it will work for him again.
Aliya Rahmans story is just another racist attack that this administration buries. She has grounds to sue for her 1st amendment rights but also her physical injuries. Unfortunately we know there are many cases that we haven’t even heard of and people are suffering. Yes we should all get a tariff refund but I doubt we’ll ever see them. HEY TRUMPY IS A WAR IN CONJUNCTION WITH YOUR CRIMINAL BUDDY NETANYAHU ENOUGH TO STOP TALK OF THE EPSTEIN FILES????
The Evil One in the presidential office now should definitely pay all collected money from tariffs back to the people in the United Stares. And when Biden was giving his SOTU speech, why weren’t Boebert and MTG removed for being extremely disruptive. All Rahman did was stand. Others were also standing. This discriminatory behavior needs to stop. And the YO-YOs in Congress are. Failing to do their jobs.
Do you think every American should get a refund check for Trump’s illegal tariffs? Yes!
What do you think about Aliya Rahman’s story? I have heard her speak on news shows and have been following her since she was originally pulled from her car. She is incredibly brave and well-spoken. I feel terrible about how she has been treated by the Trump administration. But she is like a poster child for how American's are being treated by this administration.
There are actually a handful (I know, it should be way more than that) of Dems (and one Republican, Thomas Massie) who are diligently and bravely doing the work to combat this regime. Unfortunately, because the narcissist/pedo-in-chief is so adept at creating chaos and noise, these dedicated public servants are being overshadowed.
But fear not, courage is quiet and powerful. Insecurity is loud and weak.
Agree, Heidi. Just sick today that Trump bombed Iran when an agreement was close. Why do we have to put up with this senile old madman while he destroys any positive; while he wants to distract from Epstein. That won't happen, Trump, you 2 brain celled POS!
And, reminder.... drumpf scrapped the initial Iran deal inhis first term. As always he creates a problem and pretends only he can resolve it. And being a nitwit, his means of dealing with issues is generally violent and to show his feigned might. He's the smallest of tiny ignorant men.
It’s the evil behind him that is the problem. This insidious evil has been building for decades. They just needed a narcissistic psychopath to implement their plan.
Powerful things happen when strong women resist.
And the men’s team acted like a bunch of douchebags.
Let’s use the term other than that for the men’s team. Because it’s so associated with women of course. Can’t we find something more appropriate, I had suggested at one point, given Trump‘s love of golf, we call weak men like that “ball washers”.
I like it.
yep
Truth!!!
Trump’s war won’t take our eyes off the prize. The irony of the reasoning for his regime change says it all.
Clear eyes. Full heart. Can’t lose.
I BELIEVE THAT IN TIME THE EPSTEIN SWAMP WILL DROWN TRUMP.
The NY Times is using the "above the fold" of their paper to bring more of Trump's Epstein association to light, and other media are then picking up on it, bringing more exposure. Hopefully, that will help accelerate things.
We’re running out of time.
If only we had a regime change!
Onward!
She should never have been made to leave the SOTU travesty! Nobody ever stopped mTG when she made an ass of herself in Congress!!
Exactly!!!
Women are ruling while Trump is drooling.
Great statement

Refund illegal tariffs to the CONSUMERS!!
MELT ICE!!
Stop indiscriminate, extrajudicial bombings!!
Support voters rights!!

Heidi L, this is brilliant.
Yes - refund. What ICE did to Rahman’s shoulder is HORRIFYING!!! Shoulder surgery is the trickiest for THE BEST orthopedic surgeon!!’ In the biz
Government should pay for best surgeon in american and all follow up include therapy!!
Indeed it is ! Shoulder joint s are complex. There are risks and little room for errors.
Please write an op-ed to the various news organizations!
Aliya Rahman’s story should be in a textbook titled: How Republicans Really Feel About Women.
How Republicans/MAGAs really feel about women, immigrants, and justice. Which is they disavow humanity and don't care for any of it.
Simply a cover for his Epstein Files. He's a sick twisted SOB. And sorry not sorry Screw Netanyahn he's the reason Taco is doing this BS. This pisses me off. IF we could just take care of America for one damn minute. But no we keep sticking our nose in other Countries . Why not take care of our problems? No the Rich White Men need more money.

Exactly, Julie!

... and RACIST! Although sadly, some women are not exempt from that issue. Thanks, Richard!
Amen, sista!

Where is Congress?
Good question. Do we even have a Congress anymore?

Joanne - 2 brain cells? A bit optimistic IMHO. 🤣
Your right! I was too generous.😁
