We are being lied to about absolutely everything. Everything. Everywhere. All at once. Trump is a pathological liar!

So true. And his only motivation is to make him look strong. He is weak and indecisive.

Yes! Everywhere. In my little town of 6K, even our board. Especially our Mayor. I don’t believe anything anymore. It’s easy to research the basic truth.

Does it seem like lying is becoming a kind of political currency aimed at the believers who are developmentally challenged in the area of critical thinking? White men have been using it increasingly and it is accepted as fact by the audience of white men. Believers do not engage in research beyond Fux Spews (Fox).

If Bernie says it, I believe it. He has never forgotten where he came from!

Bernie is probably the only person in the US government who will tell the truth.

Bernie is quite honest of course, but our government is not without others who are honest. I believe my own Representative, Jamie Raskin, is one of those people. My point is that Bernie is one of the truth tellers, but certainly not the only. In order to change this we must severely reduce the influence of money, and especially dark money, in politics.

Darn right. I still cannot believe or understand why or how our “Supreme” Court could conflate the rights of a citizen with the rights of a corporation. I mean WTAF.

Bernie is right! This was Israel’s choice to bomb Iran. Let them fend for themselves. We should all be afraid of what the Iranian response will be.

Now Hegseth says this has been planned for months! WTF?

Why would anyone believe an individual who can’t manage a conference call without endangering the lives of dedicated women and men in uniform? I most certainly distrust everything he says.

Bernie is the most consistent and honest public servant we have at the federal level. I don’t know if Dr Fauci is still a federal employee but if he is, they might be tied for that level

They have not said who or what proof because their is no proof, just the word of Netenyahu who a proven liar and guilty of genocide in Palestine. Shame on the people of Israel for re electing him, and not for getting him out again. This country is just as guilty, after losing in 2020 and inciting an insurrection to over turn a legal election, he should have been prosecute for that alone and banned from picking office for life. By less than 50% of the voting public voted the felon back in… this is on them 💯. All the constitutional. Violations . Starting a war, and filling the government with no competence. This is all on those hate maga who voted for it. Blood is on their hands as well as the current ministration.

Netanyahu is a liar, cheat & thief just like Trump. Trump should never have been involved in this or any war. He's uninformed, unqualified & unhinged. Trump is bound to really f--k things up so badly that there is no return. Is trump asking for another 9-11?

Bibi has been saying that Iran was weeks away from a nuke since 1992! But sure, maybe he was right this time. 😉 /s

Bibi is as big of a liar as Felon Trump. They both should be tried for crimes against humanity.

Yes. And Bibi has always used the U.S. & it's billions of $ in "support" to keep taking over what Palestinian land they haven't already stolen.'

He is right on the money. I protested the Vietnam War and watched as a friend came back from that horrific war destroyed in body and spirit. We, as a country, simply refuse to learn any lessons from our mistakes, and now more people will die to feed the ego of a madman who belongs in a padded cell.

Senator Sanders is a good senator from Vermont. He is out there with A.O.C , I feel that is wonderful.

Bernie is more trustworthy than any Republican and most Democrats. If only he were 10y younger he could win the presidency in a heartbeat with both red and blue voters.

As usual, Bernie Sanders tells the truth as he has for years. Only now in his 80’s is this country, I mean those who care about democracy, listening to him. If we don’t multiply our votes in the mid-terms, I think we are sunk as a country. We cannot continue this bloodbath. I hope the Republican Party and its complicit attitude towards Trump is the end of it. We need a new party to rise up that actually cares about people along with democrats. If this does not happen, we are a failed democracy and will not recover.

Bernie is one of the few politicians whose word I trust, even if I don't agree with him on something else. At least, his statement of facts can be trusted. In this case, I am very happy that he called out this administration as liars. There is no better way to put it than bluntly.

Bernie is one of my greatest heroes- He always tells the TRUTH. He is the antithesis of the evil liar sociopath “leader of the free world . “

He is totally right and his statement resonates with me.

Imagine a world where he was President, what a better place it would be. Especially now in these the darkest of times in our country. His messages are not complex . Yet they impossible to understand for those who constantly lie, lack empathy, kindness, compassion, and worship power and greed.

Went to one of his rallies , first row , mesmerizing experience! Hope to meet him on the other side, where truth, love and light rule … until then FUCK the Oligarchy … fight hard, don’t give in to fear … NEVER give up Hope 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

The legacy media, like the Supreme Court, has been bought and paid for. We the people have been sold out.
