The world is still digesting the ridiculous scene in the Oval Office last Friday with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, JD Vance, and President Donald Trump.

The New York Times has crowned a fresh Resistance leader to fight back against the fascist Trump/Musk administration: a former establishment neoliberal posing as a populist who makes Hillary Clinton look like a rogue libertarian strapped with an AR-15.

If you didn’t know or just forgot, Democrats hate women. Democrats have been at war with men for years, but truth be told, they’ve been at war with women for longer. The political left convinced them being a mom was bad. Being a stay-at-home mom was worse. That being a single mom was not bad, … Read more
