  1. "As the most prominent Somali-American in the United States, Omar has faced years of racist attacks from the president and his supporters.

    At his rally Saturday, Trump said of Somalia: “All they have is crime and squalor” and suggested that “our” US constitution did not belong to Omar. Two days earlier, he had written that Minnesota “is being taken over by Somali Immigrants”, even though the vast majority of Somali-Americans in the state are US citizens."

  5. ECONOMIC DEMOCRACY is an appropriate definition put forward by the programmer on The Kyle Kulinsk Show. This means that Democrat Zohran needs to SHIFT from SOCIALISM to ECONOMIC DEMOCRACY. All Americans should watch this video: youtube.com/watch?v=ndXluRr8ENc #us_politics

  6. High time the Republicans and Democrats made themselves clear over the Genocide of Gaza, Israeli settlements, and the probable disappearance of Palestine. Americans on the whole need to make a decision. #us_politics

  7. Today, for the first time, I heard the word "Christian Zionists" related to Trump and the Republicans. For Christian Zionists, this alliance is about more than religious affinity. Many view Israel as central to biblical prophecy, including end-times interpretations and the anticipated return of Jesus Christ. These beliefs elevated support for Israel from a foreign-policy preference to a religious commitment. aljazeera.com/opinions/2026/10 #us_politics

  9. After all Americans have been through under Trump, I sincerely hope that they will think twice when they vote again. BUT is there a credible alternative? Will it be another watered-down version of Palestinian Statehood denial with vetoes? #us_politics

  10. "A Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted in August found that 47 percent of voters said the cost of living was the single most important factor in deciding how they would vote in the midterms — more than twice the share who cited the next-most important issue, “democratic values and norms”. Americans need to rethink their approach to elections. Electing those with 'eternal promises' does not always work out right: one's track record does. #us_politics

  11. ALJAZEERA: Watch US Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen call Netanyahu a lying “war criminal” before his visit to the UN General Assembly. He condemned Netanyahu as ‘chronic liar’ before UNGA visit. “Netanyahu lies and lies and lies,” said Van Hollen. Would you view this as Antisemitism? #us_politics

  12. Biden was ridiculed by Trump prior to his election as president. Together with Elon Musk they spoke about the national debt and the need to cut down on wasteful spending, immigration including tariff wars. Now with the war with Iran, he has spent Trillions, further increasing National Debt. Can we say he achieved any of his goals? America is far more debt ridden today than it was under Biden. I do hope Americans will reflect on this at the coming polls. #us_politics

  13. The EU should make Canada an associate member. It will enable Canada to withstand Trump's dementia. #us_politics

  14. In another blow to global oil markets, drones struck Saudi Arabia’s East-West oil pipeline last Thursday, prompting the kingdom to suspend operations. Time for the Arabs to realise that they need to look inward. Look at Palestine, look at the outcome of their relationships with neighbours, and close down US bases. aljazeera.com/news/2026/9/14/w #us_politics #arabpolitics

  15. 'Everything changed': The human cost of 25 years of US wars. Successive wars launched after 9/11 have killed at least 4.5 million people and displaced more than 38 million others. The sun is setting on another Roman Empire (the US). People are fed-up with being forced into subjugation. aljazeera.com/news/longform/20 #us_politics

  16. The CIA Headquarters in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was ‘effectively destroyed’ by Iranian strikes in March

    Various other U.S. military bases have been so extensively damaged that CENTCOM has discussed abandoning the bases completely and relocating troops away from the Middle East.

    Navy admirals, for example, said that personnel won’t be returning to Bahrain ‘any time soon’. – CNN

  17. 2022 hat #saudiarabien die #midterms in den USA unter #Biden mit einem höheren #Ölpreis zugunsten der #Republikaner beeinflusst.

    Vier Jahre später sind den Saudis die Hände gebunden und #China entscheidet mit seinem Öllagerstand über den Ölpreis bei den Zwischenwahlen. Hoffentlich gegen #Trump

    Eine interessante Wendung in der Geschichte.

  19. Abdul El-Sayed, a progressive public health advocate, has won the Democratic nomination for the United States Senate, overcoming more than $60m in campaign spending, mostly from pro-Israel groups. [update: Does posting this report originating from AlJazeera indicate "antisemitism"? to receive a warning? I would prefer if Mastodon was more precise so that I may be mindful of my words]. aljazeera.com/news/2026/8/5/ab #us_politics

  21. Trump is unable to make any deal last because Israel dictates terms. All his deals in the past and 'last chances' reflect on his poor leadership. Americans need to reflect upon whether he is more interested in wars or making life at home more manageable and reasonable. #us_politics #TheWarWithIran

  22. There will never be a deal with Iran because Trump is unreliable. He and his administration is unable to decide upon anything that is not approved by Israel. #us_politics

  23. To be honest: Trump is not really that bad when it comes to flooding the US with migrants, or the economy etc. However, I will say that he approached it the wrong way. The worst he did was to sing the Israel song and go along with the genocide of Gaza. His lack of perception has led on a dead-end. The BAD in the form of ICE, ill-treatment of valid migrants and the extermination of Palestinians has shattered his image for good. #us_politics

  24. "Trump says Saudi nuclear pact hinges on kingdom joining Abraham Accords": Just when are the Disneyland Arabs going to learn that the Abraham Accords are going to allow Israel hegemony over the Middle East. #DisneylandArabs #US_politics

  25. Trump accused the Democrats over the war in Afghanistan, now, look at him with Iran. Americans need to wake up to what's going on... a deficit that can never be repaid by generations to come. #US_politics

  26. AlJazeera: Latest cost comes as Hegseth and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Caine ask for $1.5 trillion budget, including $70bn for Iran war. Can you imagine this. The money could have been spent helping people at home instead of war. The deficit is beyond repair. #US_politics #TheWarWithIran

  27. Harry Houdini is known as the greatest American illusionists. Trump has indeed overtaken him as president. He makes billions in office though Crypto and Stock sales at the right time, something that would cause a stockbroker to end up in jail according to the law. I wonder how all those grassroots Republicans can go along with poverty while he enriches himself? #US_politics

  28. @gleick I used to think that Harry Houdini was the greatest magician until I got to know Trump. I wonder how all those grassroots Republicans can go along with poverty while he makes money? #US_politics

  29. Imagine, the US sign a MOU with Iran and declares the Hormuz waterway free without giving anything, except some 'offers' that never materialise? #US_politics

  30. According to Trump: "We (Americans) are in a Golden Age." Of course he is if you use your office to make billions. And the people in general live in a 'Golden Cage'? #US_politics

  31. Americans need to reflect over what they want in life; over what kind of government they want in life. They need to change the balloting system. To look at priorities in life and stop allowing 'others' to dictate how American Foreign Policy should be shaped. #US_politics

  32. The three things Democrats must do to regain rural America’s trust

    theguardian.com/us-news/ng-int

    A nice and informative article by Anthony Flaccavento, who ran as a democrat for Virginia's ninth congressional District in 2018 and is co-founder and director of the Rural Urban Bridge Initiative.

  33. CW: US Politics House Bill

    Well for those who don't keep up with politics now there is a bill called the "Parents Decide Act" going to the House of Representatives that will force Operating Systems to verify ages of users.

    I have already emailed one of my senators and my representative saying if they vote yes I will vote for their opposition in the next election to do whatever I can to prevent this bill from becoming reality.

  34. My suggestion for anyone is: [Aa, Etou: DIO DA!]
    Apologise with no minimisation for exactly what you now wish you hadn't done.
    Explain what you will choose in future, instead.

    Describe what your ideal outcome was, compared to what your ideal outcome is now.
    Include clear reasoning for why it was harmful.
    Outline how people can check you are progressing toward your goals.

    Don't expect forgiveness.
    Apply your analysis of this situation to other areas of your life.

  35. "Draw a political line, fold, draw a political line on another issue, fold differently..." seems to be the Democratic strategy and somehow they think it's a winner.

    (Of course, the constant drone in the background is genocide, where no line is drawn, even performatively.)

  36. This democratic national convention is actually something I thought I never would say, it's actually hype as fuck!
    It's no secret that I am more of a democrat than anything, I value getting a choice over what I do and how I would make a living.
    And even though I don't live in that country called America, I am always watching over it as at some point I would hope that those with disabilities could get to a point where we could really start forming a business there some day, and we would need people that don't or won't tell us men or women no, but people who would side with us as much as they can going forward.
    So this election I hope that those with disabilities will pick the people who would stand up for the future blind business makers, and those who will fight for the small and much, rather than the big and little.

  38. OH: “you’re not respecting the democratic process!” says party who has had two presidents in my lifetime that lost the popular vote, and had a lethal insurrection attempt to undo the most recent presidential election

  39. @[email protected] the gatoraide and seltzer ain't bad.

    Have you tried HOT gatoraide yet? because you need to cycle through the full range of sickness beverage options and combos.

  40. #politics #election2024 #Facebook #voteRigging #US_Politics

    Episode 4 of The Gatekeepers describes how 26 Facebook bot accounts were able to influence 3 MILLION voters in the Phillipines, and how this was only a dry run for the 2016 US Presidential election.

    Steps taken by Facebook to prevent a recurrence of such malign influence in 2024 cannot so far guarantee similar tactics won't work again.

  41. @DrALJONES Good luck America, you're going to need it. And frankly, given the UK habit of sucking up to whoever is US president, so do we. We have our own right wing nut jobs who'd love to copy DeSantis. #US_politics #UK_politics

  42. #Limerick #US_Politics

    Will Donnies tax forms tell a story
    Of naked deceit and vainglory?
    Let us hope the result
    Is the loss of his cult
    And an end to his vile oratory
